Democrats Heartlessly BLOCK A Bill To Rescue Thousands of Americans Stranded in Afghanistan

The Democrats have now proven that they care little about Americans and are willing to let them die simply for cheap political wins.

On Tuesday, House Democrats blocked legislation that would have rescued thousands of Americans left in Afghanistan as a result of President Joe Biden’s failed withdrawal.

The plan would have also funded an accounting of the billions of dollars in military equipment left behind for the Taliban terrorist dictatorship by Biden and his woke US generals.

Rep. Mike Gallagher criticized Democrats on Tuesday for defeating his bill in the House, which would have compelled the Biden administration to come up with a strategy to bring stranded Americans out of Afghanistan.

Gallagher joined a group of House Republicans in requesting this bill be passed by Unanimous Consent but had his request rejected on the House Floor.

“House Democrats have had not one, but two opportunities to join House Republicans in supporting legislation to hold this administration accountable and do whatever is necessary to save lives. Both times, they declined to join our efforts to do so. This is unacceptable,” said Rep. Gallagher. “American lives are on the line and we have a moral obligation to do everything we can to get them home. Congress cannot sit on the sidelines while hundreds of our fellow citizens have been left behind enemy lines.”

“...they care little about Americans and are willing to let them die simply for cheap political wins.”

Are there so many anti-American leftists in this country that there COULD be any political gain doing this? If there are, it’s time to move to Costa Rica or Estonia or Hungary.

Can we impeach an entire political party? We are to the point that it is more than warranted, even mandatory, according to how the Democrats interpret the Constitution regarding impeachment. So, impeach them all!

What does anyone expect from people who believe it's perfectly fine to butcher a human being up to (and sometimes after) the point of birth?

If they are ok with leaving our best behind, just think what they would like to do to us and most likely are devising plans for that purpose.

If nothing else, up to this point in time, has prompted anyone to lock and load, this should be a screaming signal to do so now.

It should be a stain on our national conscience, but nobody gave it a second thought (except perhaps our servicemen who knew them personally over there) even as it was happening.

It's about more than rescuing Americans. It's about holding the biden admin accountable, hence the dem blocking of it

Pat Buchanan doesn’t care about what happened. He’s an ideologue.

Not now, Bumpkin. This is important.

Go haunt a cooking thread.

But LOOK at this jackass, all he does is rip off stuff
and stick it on his blog and then pimp it here for traffic.

https://freerepublic.com/tag/by:amsmith/index?tab=articles

It’s STOLEN and he wants paid for stealing it.
He’s a THIEF, a CRIMINAL and a LIAR.

Just because you like the supposed “info” doesn’t make that okay.
