The Party of No Responsibility

By |December 3, 2025|

I learned an important maxim from my service in the Army: "Leaders take responsibility, they never take credit.” It is time that America stops selecting imbecilic, irresponsible charlatans as elected officials. It is time for the adults to step up, as responsible adults, and do what is necessary to lead this Nation. It starts with telling the American people what they need to hear, not what they want to hear, or being gimme-crats.

How does the United States deal with non-state, non-uniform unlawful combatants? Those who are part of a defined state's armed services, who wear a common uniform, and openly carry their weapons and arms are recognized by the Law of Land Warfare as "lawful combatants.” And, as lawful combatants, they are afforded what is termed "combatant privilege.” Go back and read about the Geneva Convention protections. However, non-state, non-uniform belligerents on the battlefield, terrorists, are not afforded combatant privilege because they are unlawful combatants.
