The article raises concerns over the unusual deployment of tanker aircraft flying east of the U.S. and its correlation with political activities, particularly a statement from Trump demanding heightened ICE raids. The timing suggests a potential distraction from significant military movements, particularly with active-duty personnel already stationed in the Middle East. The author questions the legality of such military actions without Congressional approval, hinting that these actions could undermine governmental checks and balances.
The number of tankers dispatched in the same direction on a Sunday night is quite odd given 40,000 active duty personnel deployed at multiple bases in the Middle East and at least two naval destroyers in the vicinity.
What a coincidence that one hour after this tantrum on Trump's blog there are more than 20 military tanker aircraft in the air. It's almost as if somebody wants their opposition to be too preoccupied to notice there has been no Authorization for Use Military Force.
