Nearly three dozen House Democrats on Monday called on Biden to relinquish his sole authority to launch nuclear weapons, in the latest appeal to reform the command-and-control structure so that no single person can initiate a nuclear war.

“...Vesting one person with this authority entails real risks,” states the letter spearheaded by Rep. Jimmy Panetta of California. “Past presidents have threatened to attack other countries with nuclear weapons or exhibited behavior that caused other officials to express concern about the president’s judgment.“

“While any president would presumably consult with advisors before ordering a nuclear attack, there is no requirement to do so,” the letter adds. “The military is obligated to carry out the order if they assess it is legal under the laws of war. Under the current posture of U.S. nuclear forces, that attack would happen in minutes.”

They offer a number of alternatives, including requiring other officials in the line of succession, such as the vice president and the speaker of the House — “neither of whom can be removed by the president if they disagree — to concur with a launch order.”

The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

Hahahaha LOL!
Don't have to say a word. The jokes write themselves.
The few remaining 'sane' Democrats are scared to death of crazy Joe Biden...and Kamala as far as that goes.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

  • WE are NOT ok!
Letting another set of hands in addition to Mario Kart Joe's hands on the nuke button is a good thing.  They just need him to step down.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Biden is the most embarrassing sham ever pulled on this country.

Kamala is not much better.
Trump swam with sharks his entire life.
Kamala is sheltered and very politically inexperienced, especially in international affairs.
When she starts dealing with the PhDs in Russia/China/India/Japan, these guys are no joke.
And they have been dealing with international treaties and agreements for decades.
They are going to eat Kamala and the Democrats alive.
It is like hiring a girl scout to run the Armed Forces and the State Department.

Yea. Well? .. That's what they wanted? Now they have to deal with it.

Note, the democrats don't trust American leaders with nukes, even one of their own, but how glad they are to aid jihidist Middle East to have nukes and Communist nations like North Korean to threaten us with nukes.  Are people still confused as to which side democrats are really on?  Yes,hitlery greatly advanced Russias nuclear capabilities as well.
