Episode Synopsis

FACT CHECK: Vance Says We're "NOT" at War With Iran🇺🇸 FACT CHECK: Are We at War with Iran? JD Vance Says NO — But Here's the TRUTH 🔥Senator JD Vance went on national television this week and told the American people, with a straight face, that “we’re not at war with Iran.”Seriously?Welcome to Fact Check on The Josh Lafazan Show — where we break down the biggest political spin and expose the truth. And today, we’re calling out one of the most delusional claims we've heard all year.Let’s be clear: The United States just launched stealth airstrikes on multiple Iranian nuclear and military sites using B-2 bombers and Tomahawk missiles — without a declaration of war or congressional approval. That’s not just bold foreign policy. That’s war.📌 Here’s what this episode breaks down:🔍 1. What Actually Counts as War?By international law and military doctrine, an “act of war” is the deliberate use of armed force by one nation against another. The U.S.:Bombed Iran’s Fordow nuclear siteAttacked military facilities in Isfahan and ShirazCaused explosions, fires, and (according to Iranian media) casualties➡️ That’s war. Period.🧨 2. Trump Is Literally Calling for Regime ChangeJust one day after the airstrikes, Trump posted on Truth Social:“Maybe it’s time the Iranian people had a new government.”That’s not peacekeeping. That’s interfering in another country’s sovereignty — and it’s exactly the kind of talk that drags us into deeper conflict.📉 3. Vance Is Ignoring HistoryLet’s not forget:2003: Bush said we weren’t at war with Iraq — until we were2011: Obama claimed Libya wasn’t “war” — then we bombed it for weeksThis kind of denial is nothing new. But it’s always dangerous.⚖️ 4. Congress Was Not ConsultedUnder the War Powers Act, the President is required to:Notify Congress within 48 hours of military actionGain authorization within 60 daysTrump did neither. And now bipartisan lawmakers like Thomas Massie, Tim Kaine, and Ro Khanna are pushing back.☢️ 5. Iran Vows to RetaliateIran has:Declared the strike an act of warExpelled international nuclear inspectorsVowed military retaliationImagine if Iran had bombed U.S. nuclear sites. Would JD Vance still say we’re not at war?🧾 BOTTOM LINEJD Vance’s claim that “we’re not at war with Iran” is false.✔️ Bombing military facilities = war✔️ Calling for regime change = war✔️ Evading Congress = abuse of power✔️ Pretending otherwise = political cowardiceThis isn’t spin. This is reality. We are at war — and it’s time to stop lying about it.🎥 WATCH the full breakdown — including clips of Vance, Trump, and more — right here on The Josh Lafazan Show.📢 SUBSCRIBE for daily truth, no spin, and in-depth political analysis you won’t get anywhere else.
