But there was no clear strategy for victory over ISIS, just a rehashing of rhetoric weve heard for the last year, and a renewed commitment to a halfhearted plan that has allowed a determined enemy to always be one step ahead of this Presidents proclamations of containment or assurances about our nations security. ISIS-inspired violence has now reached us here in California, and a group of dedicated public servants in San Bernardino have lost their lives. We cant afford another year, or even another day of failed Presidential leadership in the face of radical Islamic extremism. This crisis demands a commander-in-chief with a comprehensive military and counter-terrorism strategy to defeat ISIS and ISIS-inspired attacks, not another lecture on gun control or primer on the religion of peace. Wake up, Mr. President! | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
