SULLIVAN DEMANDS ANSWERS, ACCOUNTABILITY FROM SENIOR BIDEN & PENTAGON OFFICIALS FOLLOWING BOTCHED AFGHANISTAN WITHDRAWAL IN TENSE HEARING
Sullivan Senate ^ | 28 September 2021 | Dan Sullivan

WASHINGTON—U.S. Senator Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska), in a hearing of the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) today, demanded accountability from the most senior military leaders and defense officials in the Biden administration for the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan that left hundreds of Americans and thousands of America’s Afghan allies stranded, and has resulted in a safe haven for global terrorism in the country once again.

Sen. Sullivan first asked each of the witnesses about President Joe Biden’s false claims about the Afghanistan withdrawal, including whether or not they recommended that the president leave a residual force in the country, whether Al Qaeda was indeed operating in Afghanistan, and whether they would characterize the withdrawal as an “extraordinary success.” Sen. Sullivan then asked the witnesses who within the administration has taken accountability and offered their resignation—at the White House or within the Pentagon—for the disastrous withdrawal.

About two days ago, that committee forced Milley and Blinken to concede that 4000 Americans are still there.

I forget who it was who did the questioning, but basically he took the number originally given (i.e. 10,000 - 14,000) still in Afghanistan and subtracted the number Milley and others claim to have rescued (6,000) and ‘made them’ admit at minimum there must be at least 4000 there if not more. Milley and Blinken looked nauseated to have to concede to that.

Oops, Sullivan crossed the line. Get ready to have all of ANWAR shut down and cost them jobs.

As an Alaskan I can tell you Dan Sullivan is a RINO/Traitor. He supports Lisa Murkowski, was anti-Trump, and has basically backed off all the conservative values he campaigned on. He is a snake in the grass who called Jan 6th an insurrection and knowingly voted to certify a stolen election. Don’t fall for his theatrics.

Oooh! He demanded answers!!! Ka-pow!!!

How is it "powerful" if a) No one sees it, and b) it has no results?

Our mealy mouthed military leaders are an embarrassment to the entire nation.

That includes our mealy mouthed President.

Just deal with Murky in 2022 and then on to Sullivan.

Did he write them a strongly worded letter, too? That and a few bucks change will get you a cup of coffee!

Murky didn’t get elected in a free election, it was stolen and obviously so. Its not who votes, but who counts the votes. Election fraud has been going on for decades.
