John,
When I think about my time serving our nation overseas in the US Army, I’m reminded of the basic mission we were responsible for carrying out:
Provide support for our allies and completely wipe out the enemy.
What President Biden did in Afghanistan was the exact opposite. He showed our allies that we can’t be trusted and our enemies that we are not to be feared.
I went on Fox News recently to discuss this failure of leadership and to outline what steps we must take next to resolve this crisis –– and prevent similar ones in the future.
John, ultimately, this tragedy is a symptom of the Executive Branch having far too much power than what our Founding Fathers intended.
The solution? Congress must act immediately to take back war powers from President Biden and future presidents.
Unfortunately, I don’t think that’s going to happen anytime soon. While Afghan citizens grapple with unimaginable terror at the hands of a resurgent Taliban, Speaker Pelosi and Senator Schumer are praising President Biden’s actions.
Thank you, John James
