SHARING MILITARY SECRETS WITH CONGRESS. ARE YOU KIDDING?

Some Members of Congress are upset with President Trump who, as Commander- in-Chief of the military and within his authority, took a military action which killed one of our enemies without consulting them first. So upset are they that they have decided to enact legislation that restricts the President in the performance of his duties. They want to know first before he does anything so they can decide if they are okay with it. 

Now, let us look at just who would be informed before we carry out any military mission, top secret or not. I am going to point out just a few of the clowns who would be notified before our military could do their job. 

Let’s start with that mental giant, Rep. Hank Johnson, D. GA. Hank who famously believes that the island of Guam is floating like a cork in the sea. You may remember when he cautioned us against stationing eight thousand troops on Guam believing that would cause the island to flip over. Hmmm. Then there’s Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D. Texas. One of her many brilliant questions was whether we had photographed the American flag that Neil Armstrong had planted on Mars. It appears Jackson Lee doesn’t know the difference between Mars and the moon. 

How about the “squad”? These are three women who can’t seem to decide which side they are on. Their loyalties seem to me to be more for the thugs in the Middle East than with our own country. And they want our government to inform them first before we take military action anywhere? They want to have the authority to approve or disapprove of our actions? To quote a line from an old television show, “I don’t think so, Tim.” 

Next comes Adam Schiff, Maxine Waters, Jerry Nadler, and far too many others to even name. These, in my view, are not trustworthy people. I wouldn’t share any secrets with them, certainly not one which involved a military mission which could result in harm to our troops.They have proven time and again that they cannot be trusted with any secrets, certainly not secrets which could get our troops killed.

Now I understand these people have been elected by their constituency. I also recognize that Congress is a separate branch of government from the Executive branch. But I do not believe the Founding Fathers ever imagined there would be people like this elected by the people to serve in the Congress. Consider, if you will, the people who voted for Maxine Waters or Hank Johnson. They have to know what idiots they are. What does that say about the voters in their districts?

This is yet another reason to elect intelligent people to Congress. These are the folks who enact the laws which direct our lives. We absolutely must find out who is running and what they are all about. Big money and slick television ads say nothing about the character of the candidate. I have long believed we should have a minimum IQ score to serve in Congress. Sadly, if we did, the halls would probably be empty for the most part.

Fortunately for America, Trump will make decisions for the good of the country and not for the benefit of a political party. We truly couldn’t have a better Commander-in-Chief. 

By the way. I just watched the College National Football Championship which our President and his wife attended. There was spontaneous cheering for them both. Chants of “USA” and “four more years” were loud and clear.  Mind you, this wasn’t a political rally. It was a football game. The Democrats have very good reasons to be worried.
