Tonight’s “Buzz’s Bedtime Story” tells the unimaginable time when Bill Clinton lost the “nuclear codes” at a time he was focused on Monica Lewinsky. This is a good one!
Thread.
1) When I first arrived in the Clinton White House in the spring of 1996, I got busy immersing myself in my new experience, learning my job carrying the “nuclear football,” meeting the staff, and getting to know the Secret Service guys and girls.
The first thing I immediately noticed only a few days into my duty was that there was a young female intern who had unusual access to the Oval Office. She was actually assigned to the Old Executive Office building and not the West Wing.
But her security access badge matched mine, as the carrier of the nuke football, and I needed access to the president at all times. I asked one of my agent buddies who she was. He said, “Oh, don’t go there. That’s a close friend of the president.”
That “close friend” was Monica Lewinsky. Coming from the Air Force, where they definitely frowned on that sort of stuff, my antennae went up.
Over the next several months, I saw a lot of Monica. Not as much as Bill did, of course, but a lot. One lazy Saturday afternoon, Clinton asked me to come to the Oval and place a phone call to the president of Egypt, Hosni Mubarak. During the weekends,the military aide would work with the NSC to place calls to other leaders of state.
I sat at Betty Curry’s desk in the outer Oval and placed the call. It took a while to hook the call up with the Egyptian military aide. When I finally got Mr. Mubarak on the phone, I walked into the Oval to inform the president. As I did, I walked in on Bill and Monica actually hanging out. I knew what was going on, the staff knew what was going on, and, yes, Hillary knew what was going on. The rest of the world didn’t.
While this affair was ongoing, Paula Jones was simultaneously suing Clinton for sexual harassment years earlier in Little Rock. I attended the Jones deposition with Clinton in D.C. and, for the first time, the lawyers for Jones raised the name Monica Lewinsky in their questioning. I knew the history and my Air Force eyebrows raised. Ultimately, as a result of that deposition, Clinton agreed to a payment of $850K to Jones to make her go away.
For the first time, in addition to Jones, Clinton immediately knew he had another problem with Monica. A few weeks later, the Drudge Report would shock the world with the news about Monica and the national media immediately picked up on it. For the second time in less than a month, Bill had a huge bimbo problem.
As fate would have it, and timing is everything, that same morning, I was the first appointment on Clinton’s schedule. It was 7:00 AM and I was there to update him on our nuclear plans and answer any questions he might have. As I walked into the Oval that morning, I saw Clinton seated at his desk, his head in his hands and his eyes bloodshot. I knew it was not going to be a happy day in the White House, so I asked him if I should come back later. He said, “Yes.”
As I was leaving, I turned and asked him to confirm he had the nuclear codes with him. It was standard procedure and a national security safety check. He confessed to me he’d lost them. I was dumbfounded. And he even couldn’t remember how long it had been since he’d last seen them.
Never happened before, hasn’t happened since. As I drilled down, it turns out that, for a period of time, days, weeks, or months, who knows, Clinton didn’t have the necessary codes and didn’t tell anybody about it. And he didn’t care. He was a neutered president because of his affairs. He appealed to me to not let the media know. I told him I wouldn't (and I didn’t until I retired from the military and wrote “Dereliction of Duty”).

BREAKING:
Following my report and follow up with the US State Department in which I exposed the fact that Qasem Soleimani’s Niece Hamideh Soleimani Afshar has been living in the United States (Los Angeles, California) where she posts pro-Iranian regime and pro-IRGC content on her social media while she lives a life of luxury, the US State Department and @SecRubio have just revoked her green card and she has been picked up by ICE. She has been arrested and will be deported back to Iran!
According to the official @StateDept press release,
“Last night, the niece and grand niece of deceased Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Major General Qasem Soleimani were arrested by federal agents following Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s termination of their lawful permanent resident (LPR) status.
Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter are now in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. As identified by both press reporting and her own social media commentary, Soleimani Afshar is an outspoken supporter of the totalitarian, terrorist regime in Iran.
In addition to the termination of Hamideh Soleimani Afshar and her daughter’s LPR status, Afshar’s husband has also been barred from entering the United States.”
Over the last few months, I have quietly been documenting all of Hamideh Soleimani Afshar’s social media activity. I uploaded it all to a secure file and shared it with DHS and Department of State, and now she has been arrested and she will be deported from our country.
Thank you, @potus @SecRubio @marcorubio @ASDylanJohnson!

BREAKING: I have reported Qasem Soleimani’s neice to @DHSgov and @StateDept. She is on social media making threats against the Trump administration, posting content sympathetic to the Iranian regime and Ayatollah, celebrating missiles being launched by Iran into Israel and other Middle Eastern countries, and posting other jihadi content while she lives in extreme luxury in Los Angeles. It’s worth noting that the woman (whose name I am only giving to authorities at this time so she doesn’t flee) does not wear a hijab, even though it’s required in Iran. Her social media is full of scantily clad photos in all designer outfits, likely paid for with terrorist tied money from the Iranian regime. She also appears to have undergone massive amounts of plastic surgery to hide her identity, completely transforming her facial features. President Trump ordered the U.S. military to kill Iranian General Qasem Soleimani on January 3, 2020. The drone strike occurred near Baghdad International Airport in Iraq, targeting Soleimani, who was the head of Iran's elite Quds Force. The strike was justified by the Trump administration as a defensive action to prevent imminent attacks on American personnel. I am in touch with Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s @marcorubio team at the US State Department and counterterrorism officials at DHS. They told me they are looking into my evidence immediately. I have turned over all documentation to the Department of State and DHS. This is a developing story. I will keep you posted.

Breaking News 🚨
A Muslim in South Florida completely breaks down in TEARS because Americans were EATING BACON while he was praying.
This is what happens when radical Islam tries to turn America into Sharia law.
They demand we change our entire way of life — our food, our culture, our freedoms — so they don’t get “offended” during prayer.
Sorry, not sorry.
This is America.
We eat bacon.
We drink beer.
We live free.
If you can’t handle the smell of bacon in your own country, maybe Sharia isn’t compatible with the United States.
Stop trying to impose your rules on us.

Got a letter from the HOA yesterday
Actual letter
In an envelope
With a stamp
In 2026
The letter said my trash can was visible from the street for too long on collection day
The fine is $50
I checked my Ring camera
The truck came at 7:03am
I brought the can in at 7:14am
11 minutes
$50
That's $4.55 per minute of trash can visibility
My therapist charges $250 an hour
That's $4.17 per minute
My trash can sitting in a driveway is now more expensive per minute than therapy
I looked at the letter again
It was signed by the HOA president
Her name is Karen
Of course it is
I know this woman
She lives four houses down
She still has Christmas lights up
It's March
I know because I drive past them twice a day
And because that's what I do
I checked the HOA bylaws
All 47 pages
Section 4.2 says all exterior fixtures and lighting must be seasonal and removed within 30 days of the applicable holiday
Her lights have been up for 97 days
I went to the HOA meeting
Tuesday night
7pm
In a church basement
Folding chairs
Fruit platter that nobody touched
Seven people showed up
Four of them were on the board
The other three were there to complain
I was there to read
My wife came with me
She didn't want to
But she said "if I don't come you'll end up on the news"
I brought my legal pad
Karen called the meeting to order
She talked about community standards
She talked about property values
She talked about the importance of curb appeal
From a woman whose Christmas lights are still blinking in March
I raised my hand
She said "we'll take questions at the end"
I said "it's not a question. It's a point of order."
She looked at me
I opened my legal pad
I said "Section 4.2 requires seasonal decorations to be removed within 30 days. Your Christmas lights have been up for 97 days. You fined me $50 for 11 minutes of trash can visibility on collection day while you've been in violation for over three months."
The room was quiet
One of the other three complainers said "he's right"
The board members looked at each other
Karen said "that's a separate issue"
I said "it's the same bylaws"
She said "we'll review it"
I said "I already did. Page 12. Happy to share my highlights."
My wife looked at the ceiling
Some things never change
Karen said "I think we should move on"
I said "agreed. I'll move on when the Christmas lights do."
Nobody laughed
I wasn't joking
I paid the $50
Because it's $50 and I'm not going to die on that hill
But if the rules apply to me they apply to everyone
So I filed a formal complaint about the lights
With photos
Timestamped
Funny how surveillance works both ways
The fine for seasonal decoration violations is $75 per occurrence
She's been in violation for 67 days past the 30-day grace period
I'll let her do the math
Or I'll do it for her
Because that's what I do
Make common sense common again
Plz fix. Thx.
