Later this week Congressman Steve King will leave for his fifth trip to Iraq. "We do have our work cut out for us over there," King says. King says he needs to go to Iraq to hear directly from U.S. commanders because they aren’t sharing details about what’s happening in Iraq when they go to meetings in D.C.
King accuses his colleagues in Congress of trying to "undermine the will of this country" by leaking classified information and according to King, military commanders no longer share "classified" information with members of congress. King says his other goal in Iraq will be to talk directly to soldiers who’re on the front lines.
"And when they say to me…’Don’t tell me that Congress is going to quit on me now,’ and the resolution that was brought to the floor by the Imperial Pelosi Regime — General Pelosi, the self-appointed Secretary of State, President of the United States and general that we have as a Speaker of the House, the Democrats have their own new foreign policy…ordering our troops back out of Iraq," King says.
King calls his political opponents "the Defeat-O-Crats" and King said on his last trip to Iraq a Seabee told him some of the Iraqis think the U.S. military has air conditioned uniforms and that’s why they’re able to work in the desert heat.
