| Adults in the Room: Retired Military Brass Not Afraid to Voice Their Concerns About Biden |
| 2021-05-13 |
| [PJ] On Tuesday, 124 retired military leaders released an open letter warning about key threats to America, from China to the border crisis to the ideologies undermining American freedoms. They also proved willing to address a major elephant in the room: President Joe Biden’s mental capacity and how Democrats’ concerns about nuclear codes undermine the chain of command. "Our Nation is in deep peril. We are in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776. The conflict is between supporters of Socialism and Marxism vs. supporters of Constitutional freedom and liberty," the retired generals and admirals wrote in the open letter, published by Flag Officers 4 America. The former military brass addressed many issues, but perhaps the most salient concern they raised involved the chain of command. "The mental and physical condition of the Commander in Chief cannot be ignored," the retired admirals and generals wrote. "He must be able to quickly make accurate national security decisions involving life and limb anywhere, day or night. Recent Democrat leadership’s inquiries about nuclear code procedures sends a dangerous national security signal to nuclear armed adversaries, raising the question about who is in charge. We must always have an unquestionable chain of command." In February, more than 30 House Democrats signed a letter urging Biden to consider alternatives to "vesting one person" with the authority to launch a nuclear attack. The Democrats did not raise concerns about Biden’s mental health in their letter, but his many gaffes have raised those concerns. Even discounting mental health concerns, the Democrats’ letter raised questions about the chain of command and about the president’s ability to make the split decisions that are necessary to counter international threats. |

| #3 I'm sure the Ministry of Truth is feverishly working to discredit these individuals (after hawking Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman as a hero). |

| #1 The letter is exactly right. We are indeed in deep peril as a nation. Our border is collapsing. Our economy and our currency will collapse if we cannot reverse this insane level of BS and pork spending -- none of it on infrastructure btw -- amounting to about 30% of our entire GNP. Our elections are a joke. And our president is a corrupt and demented puppet whose depraved, drug addict son is compromised by his family's Chinese military and spy agency business partners. |
