President Donald Trump has the loyal support of Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okl.), but in order to get it, Mullin has to say blatantly untrue things in public — and get called out for it. Appearing on CNN with host Kasie Hunt on Monday, Mullin found himself on the defensive after insisting Trump’s invasion of Iran is not a war, only to be corrected by Trump’s own defense secretary. “This isn't a war, we haven't declared war. Everybody wants to say,” Mullin told Hunt , prompting Hunt to play a clip of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth saying earlier on Monday that “we set the terms of this war from start to finish. We didn't start this war. But under President Trump, we are finishing it.” Hunt then asked Mullin if stood by his earlier statement that this is not a war. “What he declared on us was war — meaning the Ayatollah declared war on us,” Mullin replied. “We are not at war with the Iranian people.

Trump's push for one-man rule can no longer be denied

The United States is now at war with Iran. A single person, Donald J. Trump, has released the dogs of war on one of the most dangerous countries in the world — and done it without the consent of Congress or our allies, or even a clear explanation to the American people. Four days after delivering a State of the Union address in which he boasted of ending eight wars and spent just three minutes discussing Iran and a preference for “diplomacy,” we are now bombing, maiming, and killing.
