NOT MENTALLY FIT: 36 Democrats Demand Biden Give Up Nuclear Codes
2021-02-24

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."
