Biden's National Security Crisis

President Biden called his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan an “extraordinary success” this afternoon. Make no mistake: Thirteen dead service members and hundreds of Americans stranded behind enemy lines is an abject FAILURE.  Biden’s tone-deaf remarks came just hours after House Democrats BLOCKED Republican efforts to ensure transparency from the Biden Administration about the withdrawal from …

President Biden has failed America as our Commander-in-chief. Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan came to an end yesterday, and contrary to previous promises, Biden abandoned hundreds of Americans behind enemy lines in Afghanistan.  During an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos just 12 days before, Biden promised,” if there’s American citizens left, we’re gonna stay …

Our hearts break across the country for the brave service members who made the ultimate sacrifice and for all those lost today. Their families are facing unimaginable news. Please join us in praying for them. Sadly, it didn’t have to be this way.  The terrorist attacks at the Kabul airport are a horrific national security …

Speaker Nancy Pelosi showed how detached from reality she is when she defended President Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, telling reporters that she trusts Biden’s “judgment”.  WHAT?

America doesn’t cave to terrorists, we set our own timelines. The President must guarantee that every American is safely evacuated no matter how long it takes. President Biden is turning his …

As the world looks on, President Biden continues to exemplify weakness and failure, instead of confidence. The Biden Administration STILL cannot guarantee safe passage for Americans being forced to hide in Afghanistan. Americans should not have to rely on the Taliban to safely get out of Afghanistan. France and the U.K. are having their troops …

Both President Biden’s National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan and the White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki refused to commit to safely evacuating all Americans in Afghanistan during a press conference this afternoon.  This is unacceptable and UNAMERICAN.  The Biden Administration cannot guarantee safe passage for all Americans being forced to hide in Afghanistan because they …

The Biden Administration’s spokesman John Kirby told CNN this morning that the Biden Administration has no plans to help Americans hiding in Afghanistan get to the airport to be evacuated.  Let that sink in. President Biden has NO plan to help Americans who are hiding from the Taliban get out of Afghanistan.  Kirby’s comments come …

President Biden finally came out of hiding to briefly address the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan before quickly returning to his vacation. When the world was looking to the President of the United States for leadership, they saw nothing but failure and weakness.  President Biden spent much of his speech taking no responsibility and blaming others …
