The anti-American left presents an unresolved paradox to the White House, the Congress and ‘we the people’…regardless of political party.  This paradox also applies to some NATO partners.

At present, it would be unwise, irresponsible and derelict of duty for a U.S. President to warn, inform or seek permission of any political body, especially members of the anti-American left but also neo-con RINOs.  Informing them would put soldiers, sailors, air crews and national security at risk, which of course is the opposite of a president’s duty; that is the paradox.

If this communist, muslim, radical does become mayor of New York City, then a President cannot warn or inform the mayor of New York City, an obvious target for enemy attack, of the possible significant risk of retaliation before the President authorizes an action such as President Trump 47 did recently in Iran.  Instead, President Trump 47 allegedly warned Iran in advance. That is just one example among many.

Derived from that, how can it be legal for communist, muslim, anti-nationalist, etc radicals to run for elections (in America or any nation), much less be elected or appointed, to any government positions in the political chain of command carrying duty for national security and public safety?  Such people should be vetted and security cleared by FBI, NSA, CIA etc or local equivalent for loyalty to the republic.

There are many of such anti-American radicals in the American government, like AOC, this NYC mayoral candidate, Representative Blumenthal, and they are not all Democrats.  No doubt when challenged under oath their rhetoric will claim loyalty to the republic or the alliance, but their words and actions incite destruction of the republic as it is devised in law, for example encouraging, aiding and abetting invasion of the homeland and culture by millions of illegal aliens for political reasons masked as humanitarian; nevertheless, their actions and words are illegal. A republic is based on laws, not on an proposition even if made by a democratic majority.

The paradox results from a difference between a democracy and a republic.

As far as I know, today, even candidates for U.S. presidency are not vetted by the government, but supposedly vetted by the political party and hypothetically vetted by the press and public.  But the press and much of social media is bought. Political parties have a serious conflict of interest. I have not seen any evidence of appropriate vetting by government agencies of politicians, and as we saw in recent U.S. elections many in those government agencies are corrupted and biased.  Have you seen any serious effort at vetting?  What is to prevent this mayoral candidate in New York from running for President, essentially out of nowhere like Obama?

It is a more than reasonable bet that if Congress, governors, mayors of major cities, even the supposedly secure “gang of eight,” or any of them, had been informed of the plan to bomb Iran, then one or more of those people, likely many of them, would have warned Iran…and greatly increased risk to the mission and military.  Loose lips sink ships, as the old saying goes. 

Gen. Mark Milley, Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Biden administration, according to a book by Washington Post journalists Bob Woodward and Robert Costa, Milley allegedly had a conversation with a Chinese general in October 2020, where he allegedly made a conditional statement about informing China in case of a military attack by the US under the Trump 45 administration.  Woodward’s book and word were enough to initiate impeachment of President Nixon in the Watergate scandal without revealing Woodward’s source.  

Wouldn’t a courts martial of Milley, for example, for treason be a deterrent and set the stage for much needed legislative correction of this paradox?
