Schiff's Tiny Tirade: A Resolution Too Far?

Oh, look who’s back at it again, folks! Senator Adam Schiff, with his angry little dick—sorry, I mean, his tiny tempest of a temper—has decided to stick his nose where it doesn’t belong. Or should I say, his hand in the Military's cookie jar? That’s right, Schiff and his buddy Tim Kaine are on a mission to stop President Trump’s military strikes against those pesky drug boats in the Caribbean, cuz, you know—ayo for yayo. Hell, nothing says “national security” like a bunch of politicians arguing over who gets to peek at the classified intel first.

Schiff’s resolution, co-sponsored with Kaine, aims to halt these strikes, claiming they’re "unauthorized" and "unconstitutional." But let’s be real here— unauthorized by whom? The same Congress that can’t agree on what day it is? The same Congress that leaks like a sieve? The same congress that wants to sex-change your children? The same freaks in congress that want trillions of dollars to do as they damn well please? Please! Let's be honest, folks... This isn’t about checks and balances; it’s about Schiff’s insatiable need to meddle and overcompensate, like a problem child who just can’t resist sneaking a peek at the presents under the tree. And let’s not forget, this guy’s got a long history of sticking his nose where it doesn’t belong, but we’ll get to that later. For now, just picture him, small, insistent and angry, trying to wrestle control from the big boys in the military. It’s like watching a nerve-shot chihuahua bark at an insatiable beast. One false move and, "Splat!" that's enough out of you.


Kaine’s Crusade: The Sidekick with a Cause

Enter Tim Kaine, the ever-loyal sidekick in this caper. Kaine’s been on this whole war power-struggle kick for years, ever since Trump’s first term when he tried to limit strikes against Iran. Now, he’s back, teaming up with none other than Schiff to throw a damn wrench right into Trump’s plans. Kaine’s all about congressional approval, because apparently, the military has no idea what they're even doing and they surely can’t be trusted to make decisions without a bunch of yes-men suits in Washington all nodding their heads. But let’s be honest, Kaine’s just riding Schiff’s coattails here, like a kid who tags along to the candy store but forgets his allowance. His motivation? Oh, it’s noble, sure—preventing another forever war, blah blah blah. But really, it’s all about sticking that hand in the cookie jar, isn’t it?

Kaine’s partnership with Schiff is a classic case of political tag-team wrestling, where the goal isn’t to win but to make sure everyone knows you’re in the ring. And despite the 48-51 vote against their resolution, Kaine’s not backing down. He’s like that guy at the party who keeps insisting he’s right, far after everyone’s stopped listening. But hey, at least he’s consistent. Consistently annoying, that is.


The Constitutional Cookie Jar: Why Congress Thinks It’s Theirs

Now, let’s talk about why Congress thinks they need to approve military efforts. It’s all about Article I, Section 8, folks—the part of the Constitution that says they get to declare war. But here’s the thing: declaring war and micromanaging every drone strike are two different things. Congressmen such as these want to play big brother, peeking over the military’s shoulder, making sure they’re not messing up, and shoving them around like they're superior to them when they do. But let’s face it, every time they stick their hand in that cookie jar, there’s a risk they’ll drop a crumb—or a classified document—right into the lap of our adversaries. Tell me I'm wrong?

The War Powers Resolution of 1973 is supposed to balance this, giving the president a 60-day window to act before Congress butts in. But in practice, it’s like trying to herd feral cats for a quick bath. The military’s livid because they need to strike while the iron’s hot, not wait for a bunch of politicians to finish their coffee and donuts, and then, maybe vote "yea," if they feel like it. And yet, here we are, with Congress acting like they’re the only ones who can keep the military in check, or like they actually know what it's like to step foot on them war-laden front lines. Again, it’s not about checks and balances; it’s about control. And control, for congressmen like this, is just another word for sticking your hand in the cookie jar when the military said "nay."


The Leak Legacy: When Congress Can’t Keep a Secret

Ah, the risk of leaks. It’s the elephant in the room, the skeleton in the closet, the cookie crumb on the floor. Congress has a history of not being able to keep its mouth shut, and when it comes to military operations, that’s a problem. Remember the Pentagon Papers? Daniel Ellsberg didn’t leak those to the New York Times because he thought Congress would handle it better. No, he leaked them because he knew Congress couldn’t be trusted either.

And let’s not forget the more recent escapades, like Jack Teixeira’s Discord leaks or the Valerie Plame affair. These aren’t isolated incidents; they’re symptoms of a system where too many hands are in the cookie jar. Classified briefings are supposed to be secure, but let’s be real—politicians are human, and humans make mistakes. Or worse, they make choices. Choices that could compromise national security for a headline, a political point, or worse, their own financial gain, or a foreign adversary’s benefit. So yes, Schiff’s angry little inch might just be the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Congress’s overreach and meddling.


Operational Security: The Military’s Meltdown

The military, after all they've been through, bless their hearts, is absolutely livid about all of this. They’re out there, guns-a-blazing, trying to keep us safe, and here comes Congress, wanting to know every detail and say, "Ahh, ahh, ahh. You didn't say the magic password!". It’s like asking a surgeon to pause mid-operation so you can check to see if they’re using the right scalpel. The urgency to strike while the iron is hot is real, and believe me when I say that every second counts. But Congress? They’re like the HOA sending you a letter about a meeting they've had about you without you even knowing. Annoying, intrusive, and completely out of touch with the reality of having their feet on the ground.

And let’s not kid ourselves—Congress’s involvement doesn’t just slow things down; it risks exposing entire operations, that took years of planning. The military’s got protocols, sure, but protocols only work if everyone follows them, and I do mean everyone. And when you’ve got a bunch of politicians who think they’re above the rules, or better yet, rule the roost—well, that’s a recipe for disaster. So yes, Congress needs to shut the absolute fuck up and mind their own business, which is being the employee of We The People, because the military knows what they’re doing. Or at least, they would if Congress weren’t constantly looking over their shoulder for the next big leak.


The Nefarious Nibble: Congress’s Real Motive

Let’s cut to the chase, shall we? Is this about checks and balances, or is it about checking their balances? Is it really about preventing executive overreach, or is it about congressional overreaching? Well, the truth? That's a lot more simple than one would think. It’s clearly about Congress trying to get their hands in the cookie jar of military operations, and then passing that cookie on over to the highest bidder. They make it seem noble, sure—overseeing, protecting, blazay-blah. But in reality, it’s a hungry little newt hellbent on that power grab. It’s about access to classified info, about leverage, about sticking it to the President, the Primary, the Commander in Chief. And yes, Schiff’s need for the overcompensation of his "shortcomings"—is just the cherry on top of this sundae of suspicion and congressional spying.

Every time Congress demands approval, every time they insist on briefings, they’re not just fulfilling a so-called constitutional duty; they’re peeking behind the curtain. And in a world where information is power, that tiny little peek can be dangerous, especially to the lives of soldiers. So yes, they’re nefariously trying to get their hands in the cookie jar, and the military knows it. The question is, do we allow them to keep thwarting military operations? Because if we don’t put a stop to this congressional spying of our Military's top secret plays, we might just find ourselves with only a handful of crumbs but a whole lot of trouble.
