STATEMENT FROM VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS ON TRUMP ADMINISTRATION STRIKES ON IRAN
FEBRUARY 28, 2026

Donald Trump is dragging the United States into a war the American people do not want. Let me be clear: I am opposed to a regime-change war in Iran, and our troops are being put in harm's way for the sake of Trump's war of choice.

This is a dangerous and unnecessary gamble with American lives that also jeopardizes stability in the region and our standing in the world. What we are witnessing is not strength. It is recklessness dressed up as resolve. I know the threat that Iran poses, and they must never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon, but this is not the way to dismantle that threat.

During the campaign, Donald Trump promised to end wars rather than start them. It was a lie. Then last year, he said "we obliterated" Iran's nuclear program. That, too, was a lie.

And let us all be clear-eyed about what comes next. The President has already said this conflict may produce American casualties. Doug and I will be praying for all of our brave servicemen and women, who we know are undertaking dangerous missions with exceptional skill, discipline, and precision. Our troops deserve a Commander-in-Chief who approaches decisions on matters of war and peace with the same steadiness and discipline our troops show every day.

Under the Constitution of the United States, the President most receive authorization from Congress to enter a war. But even if he had, that does not change the fact this action is unwise, unjustified, and not supported by the American people. There can be no equivocation in our opposition to Donald Trump's war of choice, and Congress must use all available power to prevent him from further committing us to this conflict. Our troops, our allies, and the American people deserve nothing less.

22. I don't know about you, but any time I try to enlarge texts from a direct

Bluesky or X, it messes up my phone, and then I can't read it anyway. Waste of time
I appreciate folks who give the text and a heads up now days to the crummy links that aren't readable on my android

[Quiet Em]

23. I try to give straight text when I can.

Problem is most politicians release their statements on social media hours before they release it from the press offices.

[MerryBlooms]

26. I can't read the X or bluesky on my phone on DU

Maybe that's in the works for a fix for Earl? Hpoe so.
Keep on with the first news links, it's all good. It eventually works out 🥰

14. Dont forget...

We had an agreement that Iran adhered to not developing nuclear weapons.but the orange jackass tore it up ..that makes him responsible.

[oasis]

18. Yup! This should be shouted from the rooftops.

[canetoad]

19. Something to think about

How many minutes / seconds were spent by trump and his war-monger secretary pondering the next steps in Iran? Just say they knock out the current regime. Who will step in?

[Quiet Em]

21. They didn't plan or think at all.

[MerryBlooms]

25. Much pondering...🤔 Zero, zero time spent long term ramifications

Same time spent pondering crap down in Mexico, Cuba...Minnesota.... No, plan, just knee jerk dementia related highs! And olymipc ketchup tossing!

[Diamond_Dog]

27. I also thank you for providing text.

To think we could have had an intelligent, competent President instead of that disgraceful demented orange traitor and criminal.

[Tetrachloride]

28. a little wordy. why not F T

[angrychair]

30. I'm literally in tears

She would have made such a good president. Truly, deeply, deeply hate those that refused to vote for her because they thought she wouldn't end the war in Gaza or would start more wars.

Now the Palestinians are been exterminated and we've started another war in the ME in which we murdered over 100 children.

Its times like these I wish there was a hell.
