Dozens of House Democrats are calling on President Biden to relinquish sole control over the country’s nuclear arsenal and the ability to launch a strike using those weapons.
Politico reports that the Democrats, led by Rep. Jimmy Panetta (CA) and Rep. Ted Lieu (CA), wrote a letter warning that “vesting one person” with the authority to initiate a nuclear war “entails real risks.”
“While any president would presumably consult with advisors before ordering a nuclear attack, there is no requirement to do so,” the letter explains.
...
Politico notes that the Democrats are attempting to curb the president’s power in the nuclear command-control system. But is it really about taking control from Biden or making sure former President Trump can’t ever have that authority again?
The letter wording is clearly a veiled shot at Trump.

No reason to worry...
The chicoms have them under control now...
California...drugs.
Push the button schizo boy, says the voice....
Consider how Trump was always portrayed as crazy, trigger happy and unstable, yet Democrats never sent such a letter asking that he would be removed from being the sole person to launch a nuclear strike. To me this is ominous particularly when the signatories are all Democrats. It is obvious that Biden is in mental decline, but perhaps these members are aware of how far Biden has slipped..hence their concern.
And it’s a 1 of, doing what a 1 of does!
