Trump Posts Profane Threat to Bomb Iranian Civilian Infrastructure, Prompts 25th Amendment Calls

On Easter Sunday, President Trump posted a profanity-laced message on Truth Social threatening to bomb civilian infrastructure in Iran, including power plants and bridges, if the Strait of Hormuz was not reopened by Tuesday. The post stated: 'Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F-----' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH!' He signed it 'Praise be to Allah.' Experts warned such attacks could constitute war crimes. The threats prompted multiple Democratic lawmakers, including Representatives Brendan Boyle (PA), Andy Kim (NJ), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), and Ro Khanna (CA), to call for Trump's removal via the 25th Amendment. Trump reiterated the threats at a Monday press conference.
