Senator Baldwin Discusses Trump’s Unlawful War in Iran

In this episode of The MeidasTouch Podcast, host Ron Filipkowski examines the escalating unlawful war initiated by the Trump administration in Iran, highlighting its catastrophic consequences and inconsistent foreign policy. The discussion begins with a sharp critique of Vice President J.D. Vance’s recent public humiliation at a Turning Point USA event, where he faced intense heckling over his support for war crimes and religious justification of violence, while his wife, Erica Kirk, withdrew due to security threats—prompting Candace Owens to question the legitimacy of those claims. The focus then shifts to Senator Tammy Baldwin, who delivers a powerful indictment of the war, emphasizing its lack of legal basis, the loss of 13 U.S. service members, and the surge in fuel and fertilizer prices. Baldwin contrasts the current administration’s actions with the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal, which had international consensus and enforceable inspections, and condemns Trump’s decision to dismantle it. She stresses that the war’s objectives have shifted hourly—from regime change to nuclear enrichment limits—undermining credibility and stability. Baldwin calls for Congress to fulfill its constitutional duty by passing war powers resolutions to stop the conflict, urging Republican colleagues to heed public and even MAGA voices like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly who now oppose the war. The episode ends with a plea for normalcy, peace, and accountability in governance.
