Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) criticized U.S.-led strikes on Yemen, saying they were “an unacceptable violation of the Constitution.”

“Article 1 requires that military action be authorized by Congress,” Jayapal added in her post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, late Thursday.

Other Democrats, including Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), also criticized the strikes.

    The official Houthi motto, which they fly proudly on their flag, is:

    God is the Greatest

    Death to America

    Death to Israel

    A Curse Upon the Jews

    Victory to Islam

    Just a reminder of who they are.

      It’s just like my mom said: You’re free to do whatever you want as long as other people act worse than you.
