The president has destroyed the ISIS Caliphate and taken China on in an unprecedented way.
However, we cannot let our guard down because our enemies are still out there.
If you don’t believe me, look at the intel assessments regarding Afghanistan.
As to the recent dust-up between certain House Republican elements and Liz Cheney, my view is that we should be as united as possible to take back the House.
However, I want to make it abundantly clear that while I support trying to reduce our footprint in Afghanistan, if we do not leave a residual counterterrorism force we will be paving the way for another 9/11.
I also want to make it clear that I support renegotiating the cost of our American presence in South Korea, but I adamantly oppose reducing our forces at this time as it sends the worst possible signal to China.
When it comes to maintaining our gains against ISIS in Syria and Iraq, it is imperative that we keep a ground component working with SDF in Syria and Iraqi security forces to make sure ISIS does not come back again.
There is no substitute for having an on-ground component in high risk areas when it comes to protecting the American homeland against another attack from radical Islam.
