Two years ago, Joe Biden and his incompetent administration withdrew our troops from Afghanistan, leaving over $80 billion of the best military equipment we have to our sworn enemies: China, the Taliban and Iran. Worse, Biden and his incapable generals, exposed our ground troops to hostile attacks, killing 13 soldiers. Hundreds of American citizens were left stranded. Many remain left behind this very day. In Congress, House Republicans have conducted four hearings to uncover the truth concerning Biden’s failed plan. This botched withdrawal was completely preventable. Not only was this military retreat a humiliating loss for the United States, it rendered every life we lost there an unnecessary sacrifice, plus we wasted over $1 trillion in taxpayer money.
Despite Biden failing to take any responsibility for this surrender, here are the facts:
- Joe Biden ignored warnings from senior military leaders about withdrawing troops from Afghanistan.
- Joe Biden ignored recommendations to conduct the evacuation from the more secure Bagram Air Base.
- Joe Biden’s military leadership failed to anticipate the ensuring chaos following the withdrawal.
- Biden lied to the American people when he promised a withdrawal that would be conducted “responsibly, deliberately, and safely.”
- More than 800 Americans were abandoned behind enemy lines in Afghanistan for months, despite Biden promising American troops would “stay until we get them all out.”
- American troops stationed at Abbey Gate were aware of and had identified the suspected bomber hours before the blast but were stopped from taking action.
This week marks a very sad day for all those who served our nation, and to those we lost.
