Comments by "Tony Wilson" (@tonywilson4713) on "Republican Morons Going All-In On Bogus Texas Secession Schtick" video.
I'm Australian but went to college in America in the late 80s. In all the years I have watched what's going on in America I have never heard such bonkers crap as Kristi Noem is speaking and there's a lot of bonkers crap in the world right now. What's even more bonkers than usual is how calmy she says this stuff. Thanks to the wonders of Wikipedia it doesn't take anyone long to look up the US National Guard and find out things like the fact all of the State National guards only exist through FEDERAL LAW and are jointly controlled by the States and FEDERAL Authorities. It also doesn't take long to look at the units and see that ALL OF THEM are part of the US Army or US Airforce which means their chain of command is through FEDERAL officers. So Kristi Noem is not commander in chief of anything, but the fact she thinks she is, is bloody terrifying because sooner or later one of these clowns is going to try something. Just so you know why this stuff concerns the rest of the world. America is still 1/4 (~24.6%) of the Worlds Economy and the US Dollar is still the worlds reserve currency that most of the World's international trade relies on TO BE STABLE. So when clowns like Kristi Noem threaten the stability of America she's also threatening the World's economy.

@joels5150 As I have said again and again - I am staggered how badly some American politicians understand their own constitution AND how their supporters love it. I'm Australian but went to college in America in the late 80s. It used to stun me just how well Americans understood their constitution and how there government actually worked. I was equally stunned to find George Bush 2.0 DEFUNDED CIVICS in high schools. I am absolutely convinced that one of the smartest things Australia could do is to do an Australian Version of Civics classes in our high schools because its one of the best ways to stamp out this sort of crap. These clowns and others who say these sorts of things would be stomped on immediately and either thrown out of office or thrown out at the next election. AND SO YOU KNOW - we do have these sorts of clowns here in Australia and they get away with stupid claims like these for the same reasons.
