On the anniversary of the infamous 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii questioned whether “the remilitarization of Japan” is really a good idea.
“As we remember Japan’s aggression in the Pacific, we need to ask ourselves this question: is the remilitarization of Japan, which is presently underway, truly a good idea? We need to be careful that shortsighted, self-serving leaders do not end up bringing us again face-to-face with a remilitarized Japan. #PearlHarbor82,” Gabbard tweeted.
Former Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois — who currently has the Ukrainian phrase “Slava Ukraini” next to his name on X, along with American, Ukrainian, and Israeli flag emojis — responded to Gabbard’s post by calling her “crazy.”
“This lady is crazy. Wut,” Kinzinger wrote in response to Gabbard’s post. The former congressman describes himself on X as a “Proud RINO.”
Political figures have been highlighting the somber anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack.
“Today, we honor the more than 2,400 American service members who lost their lives during the attack on Pearl Harbor. We will forever remember the sacrifices they made, and are grateful for all veterans who bravely serve this country,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is currently running for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, tweeted.
“Today, we commemorate the 82nd anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. A date which will live in infamy. Let us always remember the bravery and service demonstrated on that fateful day, and always honor the memories of the Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice,” GOP Rep. Dan Bishop of North Carolina tweeted.
