Newsome and AOC on Foreign Policy

February 15, 2026

” Foreign policy is like hitting a baseball; if you fail 70% of the time you go to the Hall of fame.” Robert Kagan, American Historian, Author, Columnist and Foreign Policy Analyst.

Unfortunately, Gov. Newsome and the Congresswoman traveled to Germany last week to learn about foreign policy. They went to the Munich Security Conference. The MSC is held annually with over 70 western countries and allies attending to discuss global security issues. Newsome and AOC do not have any experience regarding foreign policy, and neither were briefed by the US State Department about currents affairs. They lacked experience and intel, and an education regarding geography.

Their trip was a political stunt, as both have aspirations toward winning the White House in 2028. AOC is a self-declared socialist and quite ignorant. She once said the world will end in 9 years. That was 8 years ago. Newsome is running the State of California. Sadly, that state has the majority of US homelessness, the highest taxes, a budget deficit of $20 billion and is under investigation for welfare fraud. Additionally, California received one half of all disaster relief $$$’s from the US Government last year totaling $63 billion. He just can’t stop forest fires.

AOC made speeches criticizing the US. She didn’t know where Venezuela is located. She criticized President Trump for his actions against Maduro. And worse-when asked about US sending military troops to Taiwan, she fumbled and bumbled her answer. She is just plain stupid. And she embarrassed the US. A couple of years ago AOC had some media training that suggested she wear glasses to make herself look more intelligent and move her head and hands a certain way to look pensive. Pitiful!

It is never acceptable for US Government officials to travel to other countries and criticize the US and/or the sitting President. Newsome and AOC are hacks! Both embarrassed the Unites States.

Special Note to my Readers-for Black History Month read works from Maya Angelou. She was an incredible Black Woman. A poet, author and civil rights activist. Her early novel “I know why the Caged Bird Sings” was a remarkable story about her early years. My favorite quote from her is “Never make someone a priority when all you are to them is an option.”
