Adam: I've thought for a long time, that if President Biden would ask you, or Liz Cheney, to be his running mate, his election would be a slam dunk!

Completely agree! I would write him in on the presidential ticket, but that would take a vote away from Biden.

Adam K is a young guy, with lots of potential office-holding in front of him. We need to get Biden in this time; and all work to be sure his re-election is the beginning of a major American re-set.

Thank you for your service and the update. I appreciated your story about your grandpa. My uncle fought in the Korean war and witnessed horrific things that he dreamed about, but never talked about. I am grateful for the sacrifice you and these honorable people made for our Country and all that our Country represents.

As far as President Biden campaign people reaching out to you, I hope they do, because we all need to stand together against the tyranny that most likely will occur if Trump should be president again. Our Country will not survive another term of Trump, Nikki was right in that statement. We need people like you to be a part of the Biden team. We must unite.

I don't agree with President Biden on a lot of different issues, but I am voting for him too, because you are right, he is better for our Country at this moment in time.

Happy Memorial Day.

Good. Yes i don’t always agree either but it’s about decency

My uncle, as a very young male barely out of his swaddling clothes, was drafted at the end of the Korean War. Didn't have to fight. Instead, he played the trombone in a band, cleaned toilets (for reasons unbeknownst to me), and drank like a fish while stationed in South Korea.

Well said. 😀👍🏻🙏🏻❤️

I believe if you reach out to the Biden people, they will have a positive response. It could be a media tsunami . Procrastination is the thief of time. And we must not let that demonic, moronic authoritarian conman that Trump is steal any more time from us.

I write Biden periodically on critical issues, the latest being US failure to date to allow Ukraine to use US weapons to strike Russian infrastructure, command post, oil facilities etc and requesting immediate change in policy to allow it. Im now going to write ro request his campaign to reach out to Republicans due to this video, and hope you will too. Every vote is going to be important, and we have to use every means to get them.

I just did the same, reached out to the White House to draft the Never Trumpers into the campaign in overt and powerful ways.

Thank you for your service! I am remembering my first husband-my hero! The love of my life spent eleven months in Viet Nam before being shot down. He was injured and came home early. He was still broken and our marriage was a casualty of the Viet Nam war. I remember him and all of the other families that lost their way together.

I admired you during the hearings and really admire you now for continuing to help expose the Trump lie! I’m with you about Biden’s team not reaching out to you and other Republicans-losing many votes by not doing so. I am voting for Biden because we must dig our heels in to keep our democracy. Thank you for such a great commentary from a true patriot!

Thank you so much for sharing that

God Bless from another Vietnam veteran! That war took many casualties, the seen, like your husband, and the unseen from those who were spat upon and were ill treated by ignorant Americans who couldn’t discern the difference between serving one’s country and mistreating those who served in a war they didn’t agree with. I was one of the latter. When I joined ROTC for book money, US involvement was a 1000 man advisory force.

Yes. My other uncle was a career officer in the Air Force. Four missions in Viet Nam. Never talked about it. And he was ill treated when wearing his uniform in public. Rest in peace, dear Uncle Ronnie. I know you did your very best.

Thank you for your service, Bob! 🙏 Adding you and Lulu to 3pmEST 🙏

Love America, and never draft again! The decision to serve is a decision to agree with this war, whichever the war of the day might be.

The honored dead in Normandy graves would have fought to ruin Fascism. Had the draft not been active in the 1960’s, how many of our young people would not fight in that war? To serve in the military means to surrender the decision about whether to fight. That is a citizens prerogative.

Perhaps some day we will love our Veterans so much that we only fight at gravest extreme. Whoever enters the abyss of battle never comes out quite the same. Honor those who came back different. Avoid war.

I am now a Founding Member. My way of supporting you, Adam.

Today's video is - as usual - spot on. It's typical of your entire body of work - your columns & videos, the Jan. 6th Committee, who you are. how you are.

You don't just talk the talk. You walk the walk.

Thank you for your service.

I totally agree about Fanone and you! We are in a slow moving coup that is going to pick up pace soon. I'm in California and a couple days ago, a truck with the huge 1776 flag was flying in the back, in California! Happy Memorial Day! I hope we have one next year...

Thanks Adam. I am worried that Trump might get in. There is a podcast on YouTube called “Status Coup”. They were at Trumps rally in the Bronx. There were protestors there with signs against Trump AND BIDEN!! My guess, when it comes to Biden, is that he is not doing enough for the Palestinians. That is the only reason I can come up with why the protestors would condemn him. I’m like you. There are things Biden allows that I don’t agree with, but I will not vote for Trump. Thank goodness I saw other honest reviews of Trumps rally in NY. Of course he lied saying there were thousands when in fact I don’t even think there were hundreds. Most of the people were from out of state. I can’t even think of the words on how I felt listening to his speech. He kept acknowledging how NY loves him and how he won the state back. Such garbage!!!!! They hate him!!! I’m from NY and I feel the same way!!! He is such a criminal and gets away with so much!!! I truly hope he gets what he deserves. By the way, my dad was in the navy. He never saw any combat. I believe he helped doctors in a hospital. I wish all those in our military a very happy Memorial Day.

Fellow NY'er here- I feel the same way.

Haley really flip-flopped and not sure if it’s political ambition or fear or both and it is disappointing. Was hoping she would convince her supporters to vote for Joe Biden since our democracy is at stake.

Happy Memorial Day and thank you Adam for your service to our country and your great courage!

100% and I hope they reach out as said. I did hear that they reached out to Haley's supporters. I actually saw one that will vote for Biden on CNN last night.

Adam-as always, thank you for your service in the military AND in public life. You make a tremendous impact on us.

My father was a combat engineer in the Army during WWII and was wounded in the Battle of the Bulge. I have his purple heart but never heard much about what all he did. His service had a definite impact on him after the war, and not so much for the better. As a judge, I see the impact on those who served more recently. My heart really hurts for those who have visible and invisible wounds. May the Lord truly bless all of our service men and women!

Adam, I am thankful for your courage and dedication to this country through your service in the military. I have many family members who served, but none lost their lives in combat. All came home and lived out their lives. My Dad was in the Army, medic but was state side in veterans hospitals. My Dad’s brother was Army and fought in Europe (not exactly sure of location) but came back home with a German bride. My father-in-law was in the Navy and was one of the servicemen who mapped out the route for the bomb dropped at Nagasaki. Two cousins, Marines who fought in Korea and a brother-in-law, Army in Vietnam. None of them talked about what they experienced during their time in the military but I know they were all proud to have served their country when called upon. Burden’s campaign is missing the mark if they don’t quickly reach out to anti-maga Republicans and independents. He talks a good game about unifying the country. He needs to put actions behind those claims. Have a great Memorial weekend.
