As Democrats continue their scramble to come to find an agreement on their socialist spending packages, the House of Representatives stood in recess this past week allowing me ample time to tour our waterways, meet with our first responders, and meet with the great people of Southwest Florida.
In an interview with French reporters, John Kerry, the Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, admitted to President Biden having no knowledge of the AUKUS submarine agreement. Since assuming office, Joe Biden has been a consistently absent president. However, for a President not to be made aware of a technology transfer of this magnitude, nor to have the knowledge of a fallout with a longstanding ally. This admission is highly alarming and raises serious concerns for every American: If President Biden isn't properly briefed on foreign affairs of this severity, what else is he in the dark on? If not Joe Biden, who is actually leading the nation?
For expressing his First Amendment right to freedom of speech condemning the failed Afghanistan withdrawal, USMC Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller was unjustly placed in the brig as a partisan political prisoner. For speaking his mind against the Biden Administration and inept military leadership, 17-year USMC veteran Lt. Col. Scheller risks losing his rank, pension, and career. This week, after mounting political pressure, Lt. Col. Scheller was released from the big as he awaits a potential. This is the first step towards achieving overdue justice. Our military personnel, past and present, deserve our utmost respect, honor, and gratitude. And since taking the oath of office, the Biden Administration has done nothing but slander and disrespect our first responders and military heroes.
