In the below listed statement, another endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress, Cong Steve Stivers, LTC-USANG (R-OH-15), expressed his firm opposition to the very dangerous International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement; which in fact is a “Treaty” according to provisions of the US Constitution, it is should never had been passed as a Congressional bill, renaming an International Treaty an Agreement.  Cong Stivers stated, “As a 30-year military veteran, I know that when America leads, the world is safer place. I opposed the nuclear deal with Iran because our negotiators lost sight of this fundamental principle.   The Obama Administration negotiated from a position of weakness.”  Cong Stivers went on to say, “We must also make it clear to Iran that the United States can and will use military force to prevent them from getting a…

“The First Amendment was not written to protect people and their laws from religious values, it was written to protect those values from government tyranny.”          
                                                             Ronald Reagan

For 239 years, every Commander-in-Chief protected the Religious Freedom and Speech of members of the US Armed Forces and the profound religious beliefs of Chaplains, guaranteed to every American by the US Constitution and The Bill of Rights.  

Obama is the first occupant of the Oval Office who has not done so and violated the trust of American citizens!  His civilian appointees in Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs have been violating the Freedom of Religion and the Freedom of Speech for members of the US Armed Forces and for patients…

The biography and photo of the newest member of the Board of Director of the Combat Veterans For Congress PAC, REAR ADMIRAL Edward S. McGinley, II, USNA ’61, USN (Ret) are listed on the Leadership page of our Web site.  RADM McGinley forwarded the below listed article “Disaster: The Warrior Purge In The U.S. Military” which deserves very wide distribution.    

The article discusses how the US Armed Forces’ need for warriors----men of rare talent, intellect, and courage that has always been essential for victory in any armed conflict by the US Military, have been systematically purged from the US Armed Forces by the occupant of the Oval Office.– the subtle purge has been underway for nearly 7 years.   Over the same nearly 7 years, China, Russia, Iran, and the ISIS Radical Islamic Terrorists have grown in strength,…

The below listed article written by Col Lawrence Sellin, USAR (Ret)(PhD), he provides the unsettling and sordid details of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) case concerning the Deserted In The Face Of The Enemy, Bergdahl, and how the US Army, if it follows its current course, appears to be compromising the Uniform Code of Military Justice.  It is not enough that Obama has been violating US Federal Laws, US Federal Immigration Laws,  and the US Constitution for nearly 7 years, now he is forcing the US Army to violate the Uniform Code of Military Justice!!

The member of Bergdahl’s platoon reported that before Bergdahl “Deserted In The Face Of The Enemy” he sent all his personal belongings home, left his weapons and uniforms in the barracks, then “Deserted In The Face Of The Enemy”

The US Army has…

For nearly 7 years, the Obama administration has been covering up the numbers of murders, rapes, burglaries, robberies, car-jackings, muggings, drug related crimes, kidnappings, white slavery, arsons, pedophilia, and acts of violence against American Citizens by Convicted Criminal Mexican Illegal Aliens, in order to keep American Citizens in the dark about seriousness of the rampant crime wave they perpetrate in the Unites States each year. 

After completing an extensive research, Fox News came up with the startling statistics in the below listed article.  Those statistics will continue to be covered up by the Obama administration with the help of the left of center liberal media establishment, while Obama violates US Federal Immigration Laws.  We encourage the recipients of this Op Ed to give it wide dissemination…

For 26 years, the secular extremist American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) had been filing suit against the Mount Soledad National Veterans War Memorial in La Jolla, CA, in order to bring down the Memorial “Cross”, alleging that the Memorial “Cross” honoring Combat Veterans has been on “public land” and, therefore, violates the Establishment of Religion Clause of the First Amendment.  However, because of a bill authored by Congressman Duncan D. Hunter, Maj/USMC (R-CA-52) an endorsed Combat Veterans For Congress, the Mount Soledad National Veterans War Memorial has now been transferred to “private land.” That has an enormous impact on the ACLU’s lawsuit, which is pending in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. 

With the Mount Soledad National Veterans War Memorial case pending in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, that the…

With a US population of 350 million Americans to recruit from, the below listed article reports that the Obama administration is continuing to further degrade the “Combat Effectiveness” of another tip of the spear unit by forcing women into US Navy SEAL Teams. The US Armed Forces exists to deter the nations enemies, foreign and domestic, and to win the nations wars, is was not created to become a politically correct organization, in order to give women an opportunity to check off a qualification so they can advance in rank.  

Women can definitely perform very important military duties, and in some cases better than men, and they should definitely be assigned to preform those military duties to support the US Armed Forces (among those duties are as pilots in aviation billets, in intelligence, as astronauts, in offensive…

The below listed article, posted on the special Operations Speaks Web site, it provides details of what an endorsed and elected Combat Veteran For Congress, Senator Thomas B. Cotton, Cpt-USA (R-AR-Senate) said with regard to the International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Treaty (called an Agreement by Obama).  

Senator Cotton has been a leading opponent of that very dangerous agreement, originally Hillary Clinton entered into negotiations with Iran in 2008, and John Kerry completed the agreement when he replaced her as Secretary of State.  The Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement has been termed the worst agreement in US History by the Republican Presidential field of candidates.  

Obama has been siding with Iran, the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world, who has been murdering thousands of Americans for…

When the Pope Francis arrived in the United States, despite the fact that the left of center liberal media establishment has been reporting for many days, how his visit would somehow be very negative for Republicans seeking their nomination for the presidency, that the visit would be very good for Obama, Progressives, Socialists, and Leftists in the Democratic Party because of his heartfelt views of climate change and his support for immigration.  Pope Francis simply shredded the continued misleading reports coming out of the left of center liberal press trying to shape public opinion in favor of Obama----he spoke of the love of Jesus Christ, the importance of the family, his support for traditional marriage, nurturing & protecting life in all stages of development, his opposition to abortion, sharing the gospel, welcoming…

On September 23, 2015, Cong Kerry Bentivolio, SFC/MI-ANG (R-MI-11) (Ret) (Disabled American Veteran), an endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress, who served combat tours in Vietnam and Iraq is now walking and biking 570 miles from Walled Lake, Michigan to Washington DC, in hopes of waking up the American people and Congress on the urgent need to help Veterans in the Republic, to support Veterans Issues, and to request that their Congressional representatives improve Veterans health benefits (23 Veterans/day are committing suicide).

“I saw it firsthand when I was in the service. A fellow Soldier died in a stateside military medical holding unit I was in and nobody noticed for four days,” Bentivolio said. “More than 300,000 American military Veterans likely died while waiting for healthcare, and nearly twice as many are still waiting…

In the below listed policy statement, an endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress, Cong Jeff Denham, SSgt-USAF(R-CA-10), expresses his firm opposition to the very dangerous International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement; according to provisions of the US Constitution that Agreement is in fact an International Treaty, not an bill passed in Congress.  Cong Denham stated. “If sanctions are going to be removed, they should only be removed after Iran has earned our trust, with a gradual phasing out of sanctions. We should be able to have our own inspectors and a guarantee that Iran has no intercontinental ballistic missiles or nuclear weapons. Any deal must be verifiable, enforceable, and accountable.” 

Cong Denham went on to say, “Our nation faces greater danger than ever before, because the threat of a nuclear Iran remains all too real…

The Lebanese Education Minister told Prime Minster Cameron of England that two out of every 100 Syrian migrants are ISIS Terrorists being sent "under cover" to attack the West. "It's a very dangerous situation and the world should wake up and do something about that," Elias Bousaab said. "ISIS will not stop at the border with Lebanon."  

That may be the tip of the iceberg because 70% of the refugees are young single men, and a recent surveyfound that more than one-fifth of Syrians support ISIS.  One German official who has been receiving thousands of these refugees said yesterday, "At least a quarter of those refugees allegedly coming…

Capt William Keller, USN (Ret)(Seabee) wrote a Letter to The Editor to the San Diego Union Tribune, in response to the Obama administration aggressive effort to push US Marine Corps gender-integration efforts.  The Obama administration, in continuing its destructive Social Experiment on Diversity and Political Correctness that has been underway for nearly 7 years, and it has now turned its efforts to drive gender-integration into the combat arm of US Marine Corps Infantry Branch.  Over nearly 7 years, this very destabilizing and destructive Social Experiment on Diversity has been negatively affecting unit moral, unit cohesiveness, Combat Readiness, and Combat Effectiveness of the US Armed Forces.  

Capt Keller wrote the Letter to The Editor because he recalled what his father, a US Navy Gunnersmate Petty Officer during…

The below listed critique of the International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement was written by an endorsed and elected Combat Veterans For Congress, Congressman Ryan Zinke, Cdr-USN (Ret) (SEAL) (R-MT-1). In that article, he stated: 

“The Iranian nuclear deal is perhaps the greatest national security mistake of our time and represents a clear and present danger to America and our allies.   In just 13 years, the deal would give Iran as many as 100 ICBMs capable of destroying every city in America.“

By entering into this International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement Obama is setting the US up to have 100 Iranian ICBM missiles, topped with nuclear weapons, to be aimed at 100 US cities.  Only Democrats in the US Senate are voting for the most dangerous agreement in history of the Republic.  No other US…

In the below listed article, speaking on the insanity of allowing Iran to self-inspect its own development of nuclear weapons, when the world community has already been aware that Iran has been cheating in the development of its nuclear weapons program for the last 12 years, an endorsed and elected Combat Veterans For Congress, Congressman Lee Zeldin, Maj-USAR (JAG) (R-NY-1), a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, called attention to the duplicity of the flawed inspection regime, in the final draft of the International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement. 

Despite the fact that 79 % of all Americans oppose the dangerous Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement, and despite the fact that Iran’s leader, states on a weekly basis that Iran intends to destroy Israel and The Great Satan (the United States), 41 Democrat…

The below listed analysis details how Obama acted without the “consent of the governed” in his approval of the International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement.  The analysis was presented in a speech on the floor of the House by an endorsed and elected Combat Veterans For Congress, Congressman Steve Russell, LTC-USA (Ret) on Tuesday, September 8th.  He outlines how over the last 37 years, Iran sponsored terrorist attacks on Americans, prosecuted its murderous strikes against United States facilities & the allies of the US, and how the current ongoing actions by Iran in killing Americans in Afghanistan and elsewhere are unlikely to change.   Please click on the below listed link to listen to Cong Russell’s mesmerizing speech in the well of the House:

The first attack by terrorists on uniformed military personnel in a US Armed Forces Recruiting Center, occurred in March 2008 in Times Square where a bomb was detonated by an attacker, and a security camera recorded a bicycle rider rapidly scrabbling to leave the scene just before the bomb detonated.  Then the US Armed Forces Recruiting Center in Little Rock, Arkansas was attacked in June 2009 by a radical Islamic terrorist, Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, who shot two soldiers, and killed one of them, PVT William Long, USA.  Then Maj Malik Nadal Hassan, a Radical Islamic Terrorist, killed 15 soldiers and wounded 30 others at Fort Hood. TX on November 5, 2009.  In October and November 2010, there were drive by shootings at two US Armed Forces Recruiting Centers in Northern Virginia, Quantico US Marine Corps Base, and the Pentagon by…

For nearly 7 years, American citizens have been told by the Obama administration, the left of center liberal media establishment, pro-Illegal Immigration advocates, La Raza, and the elected Leftists and Socialists in Congress, that it is impossible to deport Radical Islamic Terrorists, drug smugglers, human traffickers, convicted Illegal Alien criminal felons, Central American children carrying infectious diseases, Illegal Alien overstays from 50 countries worldwide, and to prevent the annual massive influx of Mexican Illegal Aliens from entering the United States.  

The American citizens have been watching the business as usual & the inaction of the leadership in Congress on Illegal Alien Immigration.  They are determined to no longer put up with elected politicians who do nothing about the Illegal Alien Immigration;…

By clicking on the below listed link, you will be able to view a message about what happened to Argentina that Congressman Barry M. Goldwater, Jr, the 

Co-Founder and Board of Directors member of the Combat Veterans For Congress PAC would like every American Citizen to view.  In the early 20th Century Argentina, like the United States is today, was one of the richest and most economically developed countries in the world.   “Don’ Cry For Me Argentina” was composed in 1976 for the musical “Evita”, it was composed in the same year that the United States was celebrating 200 years of individual freedom and economic prosperity because of the success of The Free Enterprise System.  In 1976, while the US was celebrating, Argentina was in the throes of a civil war, whose seeds of destruction had been planted by Socialists and Progressives…

For nearly 7 years, American citizens have been told by the Obama administration, the left of center liberal media establishment, La Raza, and the leadership in Congress that it is impossible to build an effective border wall across the wide open southern border, in order to keep out Radical Islamic Terrorists, drug smugglers, human traffickers, convicted Illegal Alien criminal felons, Central American children carrying infectious diseases, Illegal Aliens from 50 countries worldwide, and a to prevent a new influx of Mexican Illegal Aliens from entering the United States.  

Although the funding required to build a border wall across the wide open southern border has been funded by Congress, the Obama administration refuses to build an effective border wall.  The San Diego Sector of the Border Wall was built as a result of…

In the below listed Op Ed, Admiral James L. Lyons, former Commander-in-Chief of the US Pacific Fleet, highlights a whole range of Obama policies that have intentionally weakened the Republic militarily and economically over the last 6 ½ years, with little opposition from members of the US Congress.  Obama’s dangerous intent to “Change” the very nature of the United States from a Republic to a Socialist State has also been free from exposure because the left of center liberal media establishment has been in league with Obama.  

Admiral Lyons exposes the Iranian initiative which Obama and Valerie Jarrett initiated in 2008 to change alliances in the Middle East in favor of Iran.   It didn’t matter that Iran, the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world, had been killing and maiming thousands of members of the US Armed…

Senator Tom Cotton, Cpt-USA, (R-AR-Senate), an endorsed Combat Veteran For Congress, has alerted the US Senate that the occupant of the Oval Office, has already violated the International Iranian Nuclear Weapons Treaty (called an Agreement by the inept leadership in Congress) as explained in the below listed article, because portions of the agreement will remain SECRET.  Keeping portions of agreements that Obama enters into with foreign countries, seems to be the way he is able to prevent American citizens from seeing what he is up to, and the Congressional leadership can’t do anything about it.  

The Congressional leaders allowed Obama to reverse the Constitution safeguards, put in place by the Founding Fathers, which require a 2/3 vote of Congress, in order to pass the any International Treaty, including the Iranian…

In President Ronald Reagan’s administration, and for 212 years prior to his Presidency, the amazing and unique US History of the Republic was taught to the nation’s youth in grammar, junior high, and high schools, using US History text school books that documented an accurate record of the Founding Fathers principles and the true US History of the Republic.  Under the Obama administration, the “positive lessons” previously taught about US History, extolling America’s support for human rights, freedom of religion, the value of the Second Amendment, the importance of the US Constitution, The Bill of Rights, and the independence of man from an oppressive government bureaucracy, have been effectively eliminated from US History text books.  

Many of the positive events that highlighted the greatness of America’s…

Please watch the two below listed very short videos, by clicking on the link, you will fully understand just how Speaker Boehner and Senate Majority Leader McConnell have betrayed what American citizens voted for in 2014.  By ramming the SECRET 800 page Fast Track Trade Promotional (TPP) Bill and the Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) Bill thru Congress, that nearly 4 weeks after it was signed into law, American citizens are still not being permitted to read it.  

TPP and TPA violate the US Constitution and eliminates US Sovereignty in favor of International Tribunals.  The Republican leadership ignored the demands of millions of Americans who have been demanding that Congress to reduce illegal immigration by a substantial majority of 3 to 1 in a national opinion poll, and are treating American citizens as if they have no right…

It has been twenty-six years, since the American people lived through the Reagan Revolution; and took it for granted that the nation was safe from the domestic threats.  The American people have watched their once safe environment dramatically change over the nearly 7 years that the Obama administration has been in control, there are now dangerous activities that threaten the stability of the nation being conducted by Progressives, Leftists, Marxists, Communist, Black Nationalists, convicted criminal Illegal Aliens, and ISIS Radical Islamic Terrorist.  Domestic enemies have gained strength as they actively try to destabilize the Republic; at the same time the Obama administration is working to effect “CHANGE” in The Free Enterprise System by promoting…

Prince Bandar bin Sultan, the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to the United States between 1981 and 2005 has written the below listed damning column, in which he compares the Iranian Nuclear deal to the failed nuclear weapons deal with North Korea---and concludes it will have even worse consequences.  The reader doesn’t have to be a rocket scientist to fully understand—Obama is knowingly entering into a very bad and DANGEROUS deal for the America people. 

Prince Bandar stated, with regard to the Iranian Nuclear Weapons Agreement that Obama has damned the United States with, “the strategic foreign policy analysis, the national intelligence information, and America’s allies in the region’s intelligence, all predict not only the same outcome of the North Korean nuclear deal, but (it will be) worse---with billions of dollars that Iran will have access to.”

It is now obvious…
