This administration unleashed a war without adequately anticipating or preparing for its consequences. Now, as energy prices surge, they're scrambling to recover and are even considering lifting sanctions on Iranian oil to bring prices down and... hurt Iran. A clown show.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

When energy costs surge, they're hard to bring down. And everything becomes more expensive: transportation, manufacturing, you name it.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 19(source)

The idea that this illegal war is great for our long-term economy is laughable. The reckless destruction of oil and gas infrastructure combined with Republican policies to keep us dependent on fossil fuels means increased volatility that sends energy costs soaring.

Burgum: "Maria, let me start by saying that under President Trump's leadership, so many great things happening relative to the military execution, but also relative to long-term economy"

This is a man who doesn’t know what he has unleashed and is losing his grip.

Donald Trump and Republicans enacted the largest cuts in history to Medicaid and SNAP because the nation simply “couldn’t afford” them. Now, the Trump Administration is seeking $200 billion to pursue their illegal, poorly planned war of choice against Iran. Absolutely not.

SCOOP: The Pentagon asked the White House today for more than *$200 billion* for Iran war supplemental, sources say Some in WH think Congress won't support b/c it's so big Will tee up giant battle in Congress My last story for WaPo: www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 18(source)

Donald Trump chose to pursue an illegal war against Iran without planning for the consequences, and to make matters worse – eliminated the expertise needed to manage the fallout.

Trump’s DOGE Cuts Slashed Staff That Handled Middle Eastern Oil and Gas Crises

Six months before going to war in Iran, the U.S. government cut staff that would have been central to the current situation.

The plaque honoring the brave men and women who defended the Capitol on January 6th was, by law, supposed to be hung up for public display by March 2023. It's March 2026 and the plaque is tucked away in a hallway, still hidden from the public. It's illegal and disrespectful.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 18(source)

I signed a discharge petition to force a vote to fund the law-abiding parts of DHS to ensure workers get paid and our airports keep running. Our public servants shouldn’t suffer because Trump and Republicans refuse to commit to rein in the lawlessness in ICE and CBP.

House Democrats just launched our petition to fund TSA, FEMA and the Coast Guard. This Republican shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security has gone on long enough. Republicans must join us.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Wholesale inflation comes in hot for February with producer prices rising 3.4%, the biggest jump in a year.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 17(source)

This White House views agreeing to "adhere to the law" as a concession. We need no more masked agents. No more occupation. No more assaults on Americans peacefully exercising their rights. No more warrantless entries. No more mass arrests to fill deportation quotas.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 17(source)

Trump tore up the Iran nuclear deal, failed to negotiate another agreement, then attacked Iran and claimed to have “obliterated” their weapons program. Clearly that wasn’t true. Now, his illegal war in Iran has spiraled out of control into a region-wide conflict and is driving up energy costs.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 17(source)

Here it is, straight from the horse’s mouth: the American public is the last of the Trump Administration’s concerns.

Hassett: "If the war were to be extended, it wouldn't really disrupt the US economy very much at all. It would hurt consumers, and we'd have to think about what we'd have to do about that, but that's really the last of our concerns right now."

3:36 pm: Tornado watch set to run until 7p was canceled early. Risk of tornadoes much diminished after midday showers/storms. Not impossible another watch comes later, and not entirely out of woods until a front passes. Damaging wind gusts may accompany front. Sim radar snapshot at 9p shown.

12:30pm: The tornado warnings in the N/W burbs have expired. We’re still anticipating additional storms coming in from the south and southwest, which could become severe, passing through the Beltway area about 2-4:30pm. This area has already triggered a Severe T'storm Warning around Manassas.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 16(source)

Now, they want those same allies to bail them out of an energy crisis of their own making. A completely self-inflicted failure.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 16(source)

Trump's White House has continuously insulted and alienated our allies, including with indiscriminate tariffs. They failed to build a credible coalition that would support their reckless war of choice in Iran and clearly didn’t plan for the most predictable Iranian response in the Strait of Hormuz.

Leavitt: "Yes, the president is speaking with our allies to encourage them to do more to open the Strait of Hormuz. And our NATO allies especially need to step up. He's calling on them to do the right thing."

A broader, regional war engulfing all of Lebanon is in no one's interests. The US must prioritize mediation efforts and strengthening the ability of the Lebanese state to keep its people safe.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govMar 16(source)

Lebanese civilians are paying the ultimate price for tragic mistakes out of their control, with hundreds killed and nearly one million already displaced from their homes.
