WASHINGTON, D.C. (WCBD) – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham describes the Afghanistan takeover by the Taliban as a “sad and dangerous event,” implicating it as a threat to U.S. national security and the world.
Graham calls President Biden’s diligence to the Afghan-Taliban conflict into question:
“Does President Biden truly believe the Taliban has America’s best interests at heart? Are we comfortable outsourcing American national security to the Taliban? President Biden seems oblivious to the terrorist threats that will come from a Taliban-run Afghanistan.”
According to Graham, al-Queda can remobilize in Afghanistan, putting America and Westerners in jeopardy.

This is what you wanted Lindsey.
Graham is the worst kind of politician. Claims one party, but acts like the other whenever he feels it’s to his interest.
Pure slime. Shove it, Grahamnesty. Make it hurt. Squeal, you lowly POS pretend Republican.
Linda and Cheney can’t wait to go back to war.
Enough listening to globalists. F ‘em.
This from a pos that has been censured by his own local party.
Senator Lindsey Graham makes me want to vomit.
What about our troops, are they out safe? That should be the only question any of them are asking now. We deserve to know the truth.
STFU Linda.
Lindsey has zero room to talk.
They should be the first dropped in.
I just turned on CNN - it’s popcorn time !!!!

In an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union,” Harris was asked about being the last person in the room regarding major decisions, something that Biden has said is important to him in his working relationship with the vice president. Harris confirmed that was the case regarding the move to pull U.S. troops out of Afghanistan by Sept. 11.
“This is a president who has an extraordinary amount of courage,” she said, regarding the decision. “He is someone, who I have seen over and over again, make decisions based on what he truly believes ... is the right thing to do.”
Harris said that Biden “is acutely aware that it may not be politically popular, or advantageous for him personally; it’s really something to see.”
“I have seen him over and over again make decisions based exactly on what he believes is right,” she noted.
