I find it infuriating to see the outrage over our soldiers sleeping at the capital. We have been at war for nearly 20 years. We have had soldiers sleep on the dirt floors of bathrooms in peasant villages. We have had soldiers electrocuted in showers built by local contractors. We have had our soldiers blown up, maimed, tortured, burned alive, and hung from bridges. But now there is outrage because our soldiers are sleeping on the marble floors of our capital. Wherever you assign our military you will find sleeping soldiers. They will sleep on everything and under anything. How many of our soldiers are sleeping in the sand in foreign lands tonight? I’m glad that they are there. I’m glad that they are going to ensure a peaceful transition of power. But your pathetic virtue signaling that you somehow care about them is beyond disingenuous. Don’t pretend that you care for police officers now. Don’t pretend like you care for our soldiers now. Don’t only care for them when it suits your manipulative purposes. Care for them all the time. They are our nations heroes and the protectors of our freedom! Tim Kennedy
