Upon the retirement of President and General George Washington, he stressed to the U.S. Senate the need for a constitutional amendment to remove the authority of the President as Commander in Chief of the Army.
The failure to accomplish President Washington’s request, in my opinion, has produced the worst leadership in our country, in my lifetime, through the actions of Harry S. Truman, Lyndon Johnson, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, and Donald J. Trump.
And, of course, the greatest threat to the Constitutional Republic since 1776, in my opinion, is the failure of Congress and the Supreme Court to fulfill the duties advocated by the U.S. Constitution. To this end, Congress has abdicated its role as the government of the United States and allowed, or even endorsed, the administration of its laws and policies to become an afterthought, leaving authority in the hands of the President of the United States.
The links I have provided below detail the history of the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam era and the story of General John Lavelle, who was relieved of duty, reduced in rank, and forced to retire because of the lies of President Richard Nixon and the lack of courage in Congress to enforce the Constitution.

General Lavelle was later vindicated of the charges. After his death, Congress upgraded his retirement rank from a two-star to a three-star general. His original rank as Commander of the 7th Air Force had been four stars.
Note: From my command post duties in Laos, I remember General Lavelle and his attempts to prosecute the war and save American lives.
Since 2014, various presidential administrations and congressional sessions have allowed the Jewish community (and the non-Jewish community) to dictate the foreign policies of the United States. This has resulted in a major U.S. military command, the Central Command, being used to protect the Jewish Nation State of Israel. Moreover, what most U.S. citizens do not understand is that Ukraine has been a free nation since the Soviet Supreme Leader granted its independence.
However, Ukraine chose to remain within the Soviet Union and later the Russian Federation, until 2014, when Jewish world influence rose in Ukraine and the nation sought to join the European Union and NATO. In response, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and powerful investors crafted a damaging portrayal of the then-Ukrainian president, leading to national protests and the eventual election of a Jewish actor as the President of Ukraine.
The government of Ukraine mortgaged its grain industry to international investors, thereby becoming indebted to them. These investors are now dragging the United States and the international community into World War III.
The United States is a Constitutional Republic, not a theocracy. There are no gods. Period.
P.S. The U.S. Ambassador ran the war in Laos, not the military. The Air Attaché and CIA requested airstrikes for designated targets and forward air controller targets.
