According to the video "The War in Afghanistan: Who's Responsible?" (which you can access and watch on JBS.org/Video/Activate/The-War-in-Afghanistan-Whos-Responsible/ ) the following individuals are members of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR): • CIA Director William J. Burns; • Deputy CIA Director David S. Cohen; • Secretary of Defense Gen. Lloyd J. Austin, III; • Assistant Secretary of Defense Kathleen H. Hicks; • Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken; and • Under Secretary of State Wendy R. Sherman. CFR membership of each of these individuals has been verified on the CFR's website, under membership roster. If you haven't already done so, I highly encourage you the read the cover story article for The New American magazine's June 7, 2021 issue, titled "CFR: Still the Power Behind the Throne." That article can be read online at TheNewAmerican.com/cfr-still-the-power-behind-the-throne/ According to Rear Admiral Chester Ward, who retired from the U.S. Navy, was a CFR member for 16 years, and served as Judge Advocate General of the Navy from 1956 to 1960: "The main purpose of the Council on Foreign Relations is promoting the disarmament of U.S. sovereignty and national independence and submergence into an all powerful, one world government." As you must surely know, our Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence and fought a bloody war in order that the United States of America would be an independent nation. According to the Declaration of Independence: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed," It is imperative that in order to maintain the sovereignty of the United States of America, every appointment having to do with U.S. intelligence, defense, and matters of state -- as a start! -- must be people who are dedicated to upholding the Constitution of the United States and have no allegiance to or membership in any organization dedicated to its demise! Again, I remind you that you yourself took an oath of office to uphold the Constitution of the United States. "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God." I expect for you to take action on this immediately: Eliminate CFR members from appointments!

The Council on Foreign Relations and its members are advancing policies leading to our nation's decline. Accordingly, eliminate them from all government appointments. The CFR and its members are responsible for the debacles in Afghanistan and Iraq. Furthermore, they're responsible for the presidency's increasing disregard for the Constitution in foreign policy and defense matters. such as the congressional declaration of war. This isn't speculation -- CFR members have permeated the federal government for decades, as the following article illustrates: thenewamerican.com/assets/pdf/TNA3711CFR-Reprint.pdf Please see the following video, which goes into more depth on the CFR's role behind the Afghanistan War: JBS.org/Video/Activate/The-War-in-Afghanistan-Whos-Responsible/ All of this shows that CFR members should be eliminated from appointments. Please act accordingly.

I urge you to stop confirming and appointing members of the Council on Foreign Relations. The U.S. is in decline. The failed War in Afghanistan, along with our increasing submission to international organizations, is testament to this. Furthermore, we're increasingly ignoring the Constitution on military and foreign policy matters, such as the requirement for a congressional declaration of war. The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and many of its members are responsible for this. They were the masterminds behind the failed wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and they promoted the dangerous theory that the president can go to war without Congress's express approval. Such appointees have had significant influence and are found in a large number of positions. See the following article to illustrate this: thenewamerican.com/assets/pdf/TNA3711CFR-Reprint.pdf End all confirmations and appointments of CFR members.

I demand that you eliminate members of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) from government appointments, both in the executive and legislative branches. CFR members have dominated political appointments for decades. For a partial list, see the following article: thenewamerican.com/assets/pdf/TNA3711CFR-Reprint.pdf Because of these appointees, America has experienced a "managed decline," with increasing subservience to international organizations that don't adhere or respect our Constitution or Bill of Rights. The entire debacle in Afghanistan is the result of such CFR appointees such as Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken. To prevent future national embarrassments such as this, and to restore our nation's strength and sovereignty, eliminate all CFR members from government appointments.

According to the following video, titled "The War in Afghanistan: Who's Responsible?" on JBS.org/video/activate/the-war-in-afghanistan-whos-responsible/ the following individuals are members of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR): • CIA Director William J. Burns; • Deputy CIA Director David S. Cohen; • Secretary of Defense Gen. Lloyd J. Austin, III; • Assistant Secretary of Defense Kathleen H. Hicks; • Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken; and • Under Secretary of State Wendy R. Sherman. This fact is also verified by the CFR's own membership roster, here: cfr.org/membership/roster The CFR is perhaps the most influential organization on our government that has been given a free pass by many in the mainstream media. If you haven't already done so, I highly encourage you the read the following cover story article from The New American magazine's June 7, 2021 issue, titled "CFR: Still the Power Behind the Throne," written by William F. Jasper. That article can be read online on TheNewAmerican.com/cfr-still-the-power-behind-the-throne/ According to the late U.S Navy Rear Admiral Chester Ward, who served as Judge Advocate General of the Navy from 1956 to 1960 and was himself a CFR member, he wrote: "The main purpose of the Council on Foreign Relations is promoting the disarmament of U.S. sovereignty and national independence and submergence into an all powerful, one world government." As you must surely know, our Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence and fought a bloody war in order that the United States of America would be an independent nation. It is imperative that in order to maintain the sovereignty and independence of our great nation, that every appointment related to U.S. intelligence, defense, and foreign policy -- (for starters) -- must be individuals whose fidelity to the Constitutional and Declaration of Independence is unwavering AND who hold no allegiance to or membership in any subversive organizations dedicated to the erosion of our sovereignty and the demise of our country. You too have taken an oath of office to uphold the Constitution of the United States. "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God." Don't do nothing, and don't make excuses for this subversive organization. Rather, take immediate action to eliminate CFR members from all federal appointments.
