CNN: Feinstein’s body, accompanied by Pelosi, arrives in California on plane from president’s military fleet

One of the things that makes the United States different, and better, than most other countries is that all officials and members of the military take an oath to the Constitution of the United States.

They do not take a loyalty oath to any one person. They do not pledge their allegiance to the president, they swear an oath to the Constitution.

There is no “President’s military fleet”. That is an affront to me and every American. Even the 747 that the president travels in is not “the president’s plane”. It belongs to The People.

In this one headline, you see how twisted the left is.
