The most predictable thing in the world is that Democrats would not hold the line on this. Every Senate Democrat voted to confirm Marco Rubio as Sec of State, a dozen supported the Laken Riley Act, and the vast majority are still ignoring a 2-year US-backed genocide.

VP Dick Cheney is dead. He lied about weapons of mass destruction & launched a war based on these lies that killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians. He oversaw an era of heightened Islamaphobia & the sharp rise of Christian Nationalism & anti-intellectualism. He lived out his days peacefully
The Iraq invasion 20 years later: It was indeed a Big Lie that launched the catastrophic war
Bush and Cheney were not misled by flawed intelligence; they were promoting false information.
