NOT MENTALLY FIT: 36 Democrats Demand Biden Give Up Nuclear Codes
Populist Press ^ | 2.24.21

Posted on 02/24/2021 7:28:20 AM PST by spacejunkie2001

Hot Air reports:

Say, Why Are House Dems Calling On Biden To Give Up Full Control Of Nuclear Weapons?

Which answer do you want first — the fun answer, or the better answer? Let’s start off with the fun answer, but first, let’s specify precisely what House Democrats want from Joe Biden. A letter signed by three dozen of his party’s caucus urges the new president to relinquish full control over the country’s nuclear weapons in favor of a committee approach…

From Politico:

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.“

Your post makes mine out of date already.

We have seen in other matters a split within the dim party....crazy libs vs Pelosi

This may be another sign of the ultra - libs not clearing their public statements with Pelosi.

OK—so imagine the Secretary of Defense says “no”.

Bidet fires him on the spot.

Rinse and repeat as necessary....

The fired Secretary of Defense could try to collect the cabinet for a 25th amendment meeting, but if he was not quick enough and his replacement (or their replacement...) said “ok” to Bidet, it would be too late....

Plus, all this stuff is happening in a few minutes—would be totally crazy....

they want maxine waters and aoc to share control?

or perhaps just give it to Xi?


With the purchase of the Bidens, Xi Jinping already has control.

What makes them so sure Biden was ever given control of the nuclear codes?

What makes anyone so sure that Trump was ever given control of the nuclear codes?

What it means is that the captain of the ship has the right to take his ship to the bottom of the ocean with everyone on it

Captain Woodget of Cutty Sark fame...while rounding cape horn in a storm held his mutinous crew at bay with his pistol and smashed the lifeboats.

Philosophical question....

Only Congress can declare war.

How does it come to pass that the President can perfectly legally launch nuclear weapons?

It's because although a President can't declare war, a President can recognize a war!

Of course you are correct—we do not _know_ for sure that the President has control of the codes...but these Democratic Congress-critters _believe_ Bidet does, so their letter is a clear vote of no confidence in _their_ “leader”.

He is completely insane!......

I'd say that he's completely unaware. He signs whatever is put in front of him, and reads whatever is on the teleprompter.

Because in case of a nuclear launch from Russia you only have minutes to act. There’s not enough time to get the Congress out of their opium dens and brothels to spend weeks discussing the issue.

Nasty has a very clear and very well implemented plan:

1. Legislation enabling implementation of the removal of a feckless old fart fool under the 25th amendment.
2. Selection of a non NBC Vice President.
3. MASSIVE vote fraud to insure the feckless fool and the anchor baby are elected. (the feign)
3. Significant arm twisting to insure the much hated Nancy Pelosi squeaks back into being the Speaker of the House.
4. Official recognition that the senile feckless old fart fool is unfit for office, remove him under the 25th Amendment.
5. After providing non-NBC obama with cover to be president, she suddenly gets religion with regards to anchor baby Harris.
6. Harris removed from office under Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution. (shift)
7. Next in the line of succession is none other than the much hated Speaker of the house, Nancy Pelosi! (kill)

4, 5 and 6 must be done too quickly for the Senate to approve anyone Harris taps to be the replacement VP, forcing the mantle to go to next in line.

Plan B is to have “a lone gunman white supremacist nationalist” assassinate Harris the same day Biden is booted. obliterating the need for steps 5 and 6, while justifying eliminating private ownership of firearms and white men...

A fact generally recognized since the 1950s (and apparently lost on the current crop of our “betters”...).

Well hell, that just takes us from a senile old fart at one end to a senile drunken old bat at the other.

Wait until the media get their favorite report, 100 retired generals or something like that. I’m sure they’ll race to report that experts are worried about Joe’s dementia.

With the added bonus that the senile drunken old bat is, to use a word nearly abandoned by the English language, EVIL
