Tuberville: ‘I Have Not Heard One Word’ from ‘The Squad’ About Protecting the Women of Afghanistan — ‘They’re Closed-Mouthed’
breitbart ^ | 17 Aug 2021 | JEFF POOR

Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) wants to know where members of “The Squad” have been speaking out about the difficulties that Afghani women could be facing with the return of Taliban control in Afghanistan.

The freshman Alabama U.S. Senator suggested the silence of “The Squad” was a product of the storyline not fitting their political narrative.

“You know who is really in danger right now is women,” Tuberville said. “Women in Afghanistan for the first time ever have been able to go to school, do things that, you know, a normal human being gets to do. In Afghanistan, women don’t get that opportunity, but they have been given that opportunity with our being in that country and starting schools, and all of that. Now that has all gone south. And I have not heard one word from all of these women in ‘The Squad’ in Congress saying anything about protecting the women of Afghanistan. You know, they’re closed-mouthed right now. It doesn’t fit their narrative. People ought to be sick of this. They really should be. But we’ll work through this. Politicians will talk their way out of it and really probably won’t anybody be held accountable.”

“I’m an outsider,” he added. “I’ve been up here, and I tell you — this is ridiculous. We’ll have these hearings. There will be cover-ups. Billions of dollars will be stolen from the taxpayers, and nobody will be held accountable in the long run. But we’re going to try our darnedest. There’s a group of us that will point fingers and try to get the job done.”

I just saw a hideous photo of them stoning to death a woman who was one of the four female pilots in the Afghan Air Force.

Total silence from the “Squad,” Biden, the Dems in general, international aid agencies, etc. It’s all good with them.

We haven’t said the I word yet…that would be I for Islam…but any horror perpetrated in the name of Islam is automatically ignored if not outright pardoned.

Because they were never about anyone but themselves.

They betrayed themselves. At some point you have to be responsible for your own freedom.

The Squad?

There’s a thing called integrity and one called courage.

They lack both.

Now, that should tell you a couple of things. One of them is not that the Democrats are REAL misogynists.
1) The Democrats are hypocrites. Example number infinity. Their hypocrisy can be noted without accepting their version of morality.
2) Their stated goals are not really what they are after. They want to destroy our civilization and the people who made it and maintain it.

The occupation of Afghanistan peaked in June of this year with the raising of the LGBTQ rainbow flag over our embassy there. Fitting. Our stated goals there were not really what we were after. Our elites played with the patriotism of good people for years to support their agenda.

But the squad and the House Madame will be screaming for help as they're being fitted for burkas.

No, that was a photo of Farkhunda Malikzada, victim of a brutal murder in 2015. Her story is horrific.

The squat doesn’t care about women. It is more interested in promoting the agenda of the subhuman bearded savages and destroying the USA than about women’s rights.
