This is actually a pretty important part of the story, but no more post from me for a while... I know when to stop.
I was scratching my head, too. Now we know, though, and I'm glad that "we" didn't just look the other way and allow those 13 to be annihilated.
It was Pardo-Maurer who said that Biden had declined to use a drone strike to take out the suicide bomber days before the death of our soldiers.

There are an infinite number of things that never happened, which is why the burden of providing context at the outset was on you.
From yesterday’s NY Post:
Various shows on Fox News and Fox Business have pickeded up the story.
You could just as easily have provided the context in your first post - doesn’t have to be in the title.

A Fox News reporter is pushing back against claims that President Joe Biden had refused to order a drone strike on a suicide bomber who killed 13 U.S. service members in Afghanistan.
[...]
Newsbusters' Jorge Bonilla tweeted out the article he authored promoting Pardo-Maurer's claim, asking, "For how long in advance did we have eyes on the Kabul bomber *prior* to his arrival at [Hamid Karzai International Airport], and who issued the stand down order to the Predator drone operator that had a lock on the Kabul bomber?" The conservative website RedState also picked up the story, which was promoted by RealClearPolitics co-founder and president Tom Bevan.
"If this report is true - and it remains a big 'if' - it would be catastrophic for the Biden administration," Bevan tweeted.
That's when Fox News national security correspondent Jennifer Griffin chimed in, putting a damper on right-wing media's latest "bombshell" report.
"The problem is this report is NOT true," Griffin wrote while retweeting Bevan. "Spoke to multiple senior leaders today in chain of command and I am told on authority this DID NOT happen. On the record from Gen McKenzie Spox: Capt Bill Urban, 'This is NOT true. It never happened.'"

You might want to try including some journalism 101

Yep. Looks like a full story
Just messing with you but to be honest, I had absolutely no idea what the story was or was not.
LOL- better yet, explain your posts rather than leave everyone guessing assclown.
They are talking about this report from Univision that is discussed at Newsbusters: https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/latino/jorge-bonilla/2021/09/01/bombshell-former-deputy-secdef-claims-predator-drone-operator
Something tells me she doesn’t know how to read.
I don’t understand what beating triple negative breast cancer has to do with my comment. I lost all respect for Jennifer Griffen when she attacked Trump. Don’t want to listen to or look at her.
There’s been a lot of news lately, the snarky response was unnecessary...Context makes a difference, otherwise you end up with people wondering what the hell you’re talking about.
I have this beverage call Ayahuasca that will make you think you can read minds and see the future.

Trust the Chain of Command
Joe Biden would NEVER withhold a military strike that might upset the TollyBon
Heavens, what will we do?
been a dick all yer life or is this new ?
They still haven't admitted that they killed a family in the car they blew up.
For the record, Ms Griffin is married to Greg Myre; a former AP and NYT Middle East correspondent. He is an Ivy League alumni (Yale) and is currently employed by NPR as their national security correspondent.

Jennifer Griffin isn’t trustworthy. She is the person who said Trump called dead American soldiers from World War I “losers“ and “suckers”. That was proven to be yet more anti-Trump propaganda.
