Pressley condemns trump's 'genocidal war crimes' in iran

Boston congresswoman Ayanna Pressley has slammed President Trump's threat of a 'genocidal' war against Iran, demanding his removal from office and calling on Congress to stop the conflict.

Pressley vows to halt trump's 'endless war'

In a strongly-worded statement, Pressley condemned Trump's warning as 'horrifying threats of genocidal war crimes.' She pointed out that the lives of both US service members and Iranian civilians are at stake, urging Congress to intervene.

Pressley has been a vocal opponent of Trump's military actions, having voted in favor of a War Powers Resolution in March to curb his war-making authority. She delivered a powerful speech on the House floor, appealing to Trump and her colleagues to end the war, spare the lives of service members and Iranian children, and acknowledge the lives already lost.

Joining other Massachusetts lawmakers, Pressley also pressed Secretary of State Marco Rubio to explain the administration's 'complete failure' to evacuate American citizens, including Massachusetts residents, from the Middle East amid the escalating conflict.
