Democrats who long have been against things, just because “Donald Trump,” have been busy in the last day or two insisting that he should not have ordered the bombing of several sites in Iran where nuclear programs reportedly were working on the rogue Islamic regime’s goal of nuclear weapons.
But there was little such comment when Barack Obama, their own party’s president for two terms, unleashed tens of thousands of bombs, without getting those pertinent votes in Congress.
Adam Schiff, one of California’s members of Congress, prominently took to friendly airwaves to condemn the actions, because Trump took them.
Schiff, a Democrat, of course is probably best known for insisting repeatedly that he saw evidence of Trump campaign collusion with Russia back in 2016. That was despite a special counsel confirming to the public that there was no such evidence. He also fabricated “quotes” from Trump in his testimony to Congress.
I’m grateful our pilots are safely out of Iran – and I thank them for their bravery.
But in the absence of evidence that Iran was imminently breaking out to build a bomb, and without congressional approval, this operation should have never been ordered.

The double standard for comments from Democrats was spotlighted by a social media posting from Townhall.
EXPLOSIVE NUMBERS:
During the last few months of Obama’s presidency…
Bomb Drops:
Syria: 12,192
Iraq: 12,095
Afghanistan: 1,337
Libya: 496
Yemen: 35
Somalia: 14
Pakistan: 3— Townhall.com (@townhallcom) June 23, 2025
A commentary at Twitchy cited the Townhall posting, and commented, “Check out how many bombs Obama DROPPED without ‘permission’ in his last few months.”
Every congressional rep calling for impeachment & howling about the lack of congressional approval of @POTUS ‘s limited actions, please explain your approval of Obama’s numbers. By all means, try. https://t.co/fYxhJpOPm0

Twitchy withheld no snark available in its commentary: “As Democrats like Eric Swalwell and the boil on the butt of humanity himself Adam Schiff continue whining that Trump didn’t get their permission to strike Iran, we’d like to remind them just how many bombs Obama dropped WITHOUT PERMISSION in just the last few months of his presidency. … TENS of thousands of bombs dropped, and they’re throwing a fit because Trump dropped a few dozen on Iranian nuclear locations to keep them from building a nuke.
Make it make sense.”
Polling showed the issue was divided by politics, with Republicans hugely supporting Trump’s effort to make sure the rogue Islamics do not obtain nuclear weapons, while Democrats opposed Trump’s pro-security measures.
Experts assessed that there was “very significant” damage to Iran’s Fordow uranium enrichment plant. Also hit were plants in Natanz and Isfahan.
