Trish Regan: Democrats prioritizing their interests before the American people's
United States should be united amid Iran conflict, Regan says
The Democrats are making their political alliances known, loud and clear.
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s latest move—kowtowing to a radical left squad led by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. and Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., both of whom say President Trump is guilty of war crimes—speaks volumes.

VARNEY: DEMOCRATS 'CAN'T HANDLE' TRUMP'S ACTION, RESILIENCE IN TAKING OUT SOLEIMANI
This ought to make you sick to your stomach, and more than ever, it showcases the willingness of a political party to put its own interests front and center.
Let’s not forget what has transpired. We took out a terrorist who killed hundreds of Americans and who was threatening our U.S. embassy personnel in Baghdad.

And, somehow, the Democrats think Trump is guilty of war crimes? Should we not have defended our embassy and our people?

There need not be war, just eradication of the horrific Iranian oppressors starving their people in the name of religion. They're the ones that need to go, and, judging by what the president is capable of, they will.
It’s important at times like this that the U.S. be united.
If you want to have a substantive conversation about how to handle Iran at this critical moment, that's fine. Let's discuss this. But do not, for the sake of your own political power, make excuses for a regime that wants to kill Americans.
