January 1, House Republicans “Gravely Concerned” Over Biden’s Speech
ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
2001: Two passenger planes hijacked by Al Qaeda terrorists crash into New York’s World Trade Towers causing the collapse of both and deaths of 2,606 people.
House Republicans wrote a letter to the Department of Defense saying they’re “gravely concerned” about President Joe Biden’s use of Marines as “political props” during a recent speech.
In a letter addressed to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, the lawmakers said the Marines “participated in a political event” that “jeopardizes their compliance” with rules against partaking in political activities while in uniform.
“We are gravely concerned that throughout the entirety of this partisan, politically charged, and divisive address to the nation, two United States Marines were visibly present flanking the President in the background,” the House Republicans wrote.
“The President’s use of active-duty Marines as political props undermines the apolitical nature of our servicemembers and erodes trust in our military,” they wrote.
The letter was signed by House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (N.Y.), House Armed Services Committee ranking member Mike Rogers (AL), and House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense ranking member Ken Calvert (CA).
“You’ve expressed your concern about politicization of the military and have insisted the military will not become a political instrument under your watch. Unfortunately, that is exactly what happened with the participation of the Marines at this political event,” the lawmakers wrote.
Biden’s use of Marines in his Sept. 1 speech in Philadelphia sparked criticism. Even Biden’s supporters criticized him for placing Marines behind him during an address that was largely regarded as political.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre defended the move, saying Biden included Marines out of respect for the military.
“It is not abnormal. It is actually normal for presidents from either side of the aisle to give speeches in front of members of the military,” Jean-Pierre said. “It is not an unusual sight or is not an unusual event to have happen.”

The man who would be king, is what this mental midget thinks of himself. A legend in his own ‘partial’ mind!
Bidens speech was full of satanism and Marines should not have been made to stand with him in this, everytime I see those Marines I feel this Country has gone to Hell litterally!
As a former Marine, I would have to had declined participation citing it as a political event. Whatever punishment meted out to me, if any, would have been worth it.
The president doesn’t usually stuff his speeches with members of the military, much less use them as Sentry Guards. The Marines always look great; they are the best of the best. So as unusual as this was, we must keep in mind, this particular speech was full of hate and vitriol. It was completely partisan, and had in it a stern warning, not veiled, not subtle. “Conservatives who don’t get on board with us marxist progressives will now be considered enemies of the state” was the message. Nothing new but this time very open and clear. Hillary, Nancy, Adam have all basically proclaimed the same in the recent past but Joe Biden used the Marines to get across his message that conservatives will be treated like enemies of the state- that we are no different than terrorist. He and his friends plan to overturn the 2nd Amend and then they will show all of us what happens to their enemies.
As long as these Socialists are in charge our country won’t get better. Joe is a puppet for the left !
More hate from the illiterate left who couldn’t run a vacuum cleaner, much less a country. Just look how far we’ve fallen under this Marxist administration! Disgraceful.
The clown is brain dead so I expect nothing else from him but insanity.
While House Republicans might be “gravely concerned” about the speech, they are still in the minority, and cannot really do anything about it. Until a sufficient number of American voters become “gravely concerned” about how our government is being run right now, it is not likely we will see any sort of improvement. With over a third of those voters now registering as Independent, I wonder why there aren’t more decent third-Party candidates coming forth.
THE MARXIST PARTY (BIDEN & COMMIES/DEM’S) REVEAL THEIR TRUE HATRED FOR AMERICA—GO MAGA—!!!!
Biden did do a good job of plagiarizing Hitler – it was hard to distinguish between the two, other than one was in German. How disgusting.
