Neocons are Rejoicing at Trump Keeping Troops in Syria
America First took a blow yesterday after President Trump wrote to members of Congress that he now agrees “100%” in keeping a military presence in Syria.
A group of Senators and Representatives from both parties lauded Trump’s decision to keep a small contingent of troops in Syria.
The group wrote, “We support a small American stabilizing force in Syria” and they added that a force “which includes a small contingent of American troops and ground forces from our European allies, is essential to ensure stability and prevent the return of ISIS.”

NBC News obtained a copy of this letter, which had a paragraph that Trump highlighted. This paragraph said, “Like you, we seek to ensure that all of the gains made in Syria are not lost, that ISIS never returns, that Iran is not emboldened, and that we consolidate our gains and ensure the best outcome in Geneva for American interests.”
Trump responded to this paragraph by writing directly on the letter and signing it:
“I agree 100%. ALL is being done.”
Running on a platform of a restrained foreign policy, Trump vowed to end the fight against ISIS, highlighting the steep cost to the U.S. both in terms of lives and money lost. On December 19, 2018, Trump posted a video message saying “Our boys, our young women, our men, they’re all coming back and they’re coming back now. We won.”
Unfortunately, the Military-Industrial Complex and its Deep State pals have other plans in mind.
Since neocons in the Senate blocked Trump’s withdrawal proposal, the Trump administration has slightly wavered on the issue of withdrawing troops from foreign entanglements in Afghanistan and Syria.
Nevertheless, Trump can still reverse course and re-assert his power as Commander-in-chief by telling Congress to pound sand and carry out full withdrawals anyways.
On foreign policy matters concerning troop withdrawals, the buck stops with Trump. Trump was elected on a platform putting America first and he should remind our do-nothing Congress that’s he ultimately in charge.

On March 30th, a judge ruled that Texas abortion clinics could stay open. This ruling came a few days after the Texas governor, Greg Abbott, deemed abortion servies non-essential.
Since abortions are clearly elective surgeries, the ruling was overturned by a vote of 2-1 in the 5th circuit court of appeals on March 31st. Meaning, the governor’s order stands and abortion clinics must close until non-essential businesses are allowed to open back up.
This hasn’t stopped one abortion clinic in Houston from continuing to kill the unborn.
In a video released on April 1st, via the YouTube channel ‘ProofThatGodExists,’ an abortion clinic in Houston is shown to still be accepting clients.
A couple of pro-life activists are shown in the video standing outside the abortion clinic. Across the street is a police officer, with whom one of the activists eventually talks.
They tell the offiicer that the abortion offices are still seeing clients. The officer acknowledges their concerns and says, “we’ll take care of it.”
A few minutes later, the officer goes to talk to the pro-life activists. The officer informed the activists that he was just there to “keep the peace” and nothing else.
One of the activists again informed the officer of the situation, asking, “Do you know that it’s illegal for them to do abortions today?” The officer replied, “I’m not out here for that.”
The activist then reiterated that he was asking him not why he was there, but if he personally knew of the current order. He wanted to know if the officer was not enforcing because he didn’t know about the order or because his department was choosing to ignore it in this case.
The officer didn’t want to answer directly. So, he again said, “I’m not saying that what you’re saying is wrong…. But that’s not what I’m out here for. I’m out here to keep the peace….”
He then said, “Whoever you need to call to enforce what you’re asking me about…” He was interupted by the second activist, who challenged him, insisting, “When people are breaking the law, we call the police.”
The video continues on with many more women entering the clinic. Eventually the abortion doctor arrived to the clinic, as well.
It’s clear that the clinic is in direct violation of the order that declares abortion services non-essential. Why the Houston police aren’t enforcing the order as it pertains to this particular clinic is still unclear.
