“2 Congress members fly to
Kabul amid chaotic evacuation”
Two members of Congress flew
unannounced into Kabul airport in the middle of the ongoing chaotic evacuation
Tuesday, stunning State Department and U.S. military personnel who had to
divert resources to provide security and information to the lawmakers, U.S. officials
said.
Officials said Rep. Seth Moulton,
D-Mass., and Rep. Peter Meijer, R-Mich., flew in on a charter aircraft and were
on the ground at the Kabul airport for several hours. Officials said the two
men were flying out of Kabul on another charter aircraft, prompting officials
to complain that they were taking seats that could have gone to other Americans
or Afghans fleeing the country. Two officials familiar with the flight said
that State Department, Defense Department and White House officials were furious
about the incident because it was done without coordination with diplomats or
military commanders directing the evacuation. The U.S. military found out about
the visit as the legislators’ aircraft was inbound to Kabul, according to the
officials. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss ongoing
military operations. The Associated Press reached out to the offices of Moulton
and Meijer but did not receive any immediate comment. Moulton served in the
Marine Corps.
One senior U.S. official said the
administration saw the lawmakers’ visit as manifestly unhelpful and other
officials said the visit was viewed as a distraction for troops and commanders
at the airport who are waging a race against time to evacuate thousands of
Americans, at-risk Afghans and others as quickly as possible. The Pentagon has
repeatedly expressed concerns about security threats in Kabul, including by the
Islamic State group. When members of Congress have routinely gone to war zones
over the past two decades, their visits are typically long planned and
coordinated with officials on the ground in order to ensure their safety. President
Joe Biden on Tuesday said he is sticking to his Aug. 31 deadline for completing
the risky airlift as people flee Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. He said a key
reason for the deadline is the ongoing IS threat targeting the airport. The
Islamic State group’s Afghanistan affiliate is known for staging suicide
attacks on civilians.
^ The fact that 1 Congressman was
a Democrat and the other Congressman was a Republican means that Congress (both
Houses and both Parties) are getting ready to investigate the failings of Biden
and his Administration over this chaotic and deadly evacuation.
It's great to see everyone on the same side
for once and hopefully they will hold the Commander-In-Failure Biden 100%
accountable for his stupid actions that have caused so much pain, suffering and
death to so many people - Americans, Brits, Canadians, Germans, French,
Spaniards, Poles, Italians, Australians, Afghanis, etc.
The fact that Biden won't extend
the deadline past August 31st means American Citizens, Westerners and our
Afghani Allies will be abandoned and left defenseless against the psycho
Taliban Terrorists (who have already told Afghani women to stay home and not
work and who have already started using lists to round-up men, women and
children to torture and kill.)
Biden already has so much
innocent blood on his hands for his inaction (even the US Embassy in Kabul
begged him and the State Department to start evacuations a month before the
Taliban took Kabul, but he refused and even when he is questioned about his
failings he brushes off the question and moves on to something else - like
Covid - which he is also failing at controlling.)
Right now we Americans - and the
people around the world - can only watch the horrific and deadly scenes going
on in Afghanistan and listen to Biden and his Advisors continue to lie to us
and fail at every turn they make.
After the evacuations stop and
thousands upon thousands of innocent men, women and children (including
Americans) are left to suffer under the Taliban we Americans will have to hold
our heads down in shame for the actions, inactions and failures done in our
name by Biden during the Fall of Afghanistan.
We Americans (those in Congress
and ordinary people) then need to take that shame and hold the few people (the
Suits - Biden and his Minions) completely responsible for this chaotic and
deadly withdrawal.
No independently thinking person
(American or Foreigner) can ever believe a thing Biden or his Advisors ever
tell us from now on. He has shown to be a delusional and failing Leader (his
approval rating is already down to 41% so Americans already see his failings
and his incompetence.)
The real tragedy in all of this
is the thousands upon thousands of innocent men, women and children that have
to and will have to suffer and die because of one man's (Biden) failings. Their
blood is on his hands. ^
