South Dakota Senator John Thune has been critical of the approach of the Obama Administration to the threat from ISIS.
He took to the Senate floor late last week to voice those concerns in the wake of the loss of the Iraqi city of Ramadi.

Thune says the White House doesn’t appear to take the loss seriously.

Thune says the US has to be serious in confronting the threat from ISIS.

Thune says American allies, and the rest of the world are watching the US response to the spreading threat of the terrorist group.
