Biden Blew It

A newly released 2,000-page Army report on the fall of Afghanistan is a damning indictment of President Joe Biden's failed leadership. 

 

Against the advice of his top military commanders, Biden made the decision to withdraw all U.S. forces from Afghanistan.  But he failed to adequately plan for the mission.  And once it was underway, the Biden White House and State Department ignored urgent warnings from the military that the situation was rapidly deteriorating.

 

Here's how the left-wing Washington Post summarized the Army's report:

 

"Senior White House and State Department officials failed to grasp the Taliban's steady advance on Afghanistan's capital and resisted efforts by U.S. military leaders to prepare the evacuation of embassy personnel and Afghan allies weeks before Kabul's fall, placing American troops ordered to carry out the withdrawal in greater danger."

 

Thirteen of America's heroes died as a result of Biden's failure to "grasp" the situation. 

 

Reacting to the report, Sen. Tom Cotton blasted the Biden Administration's "catastrophic failure" in Afghanistan.  He accused President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken of lying to the American people in order to "cover up their gross mismanagement of that crisis.
