Live Updates: Joe Biden is en route to receive the bodies of Kabul victims
SKY News ^ | August 29, 2021

Posted on 08/29/2021 5:20:57 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

He and Jill Biden will shortly arrive at the Dover Air Force Base in Delaware to attend the "dignified transfer" of 13 military personnel killed in a terror attack at Kabul airport.

This is a military ritual of receiving the remains of fallen troops killed in foreign combat.

The dead ranged in age from 20 to 31.

"The 13 service members that we lost were heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice in service of our highest American ideals and while saving the lives of others," President Biden said in a statement Saturday.

"Their bravery and selflessness has enabled more than 117,000 people at risk to reach safety thus far."

Eleven of the 13 Americans killed were Marines. One was a Navy sailor and one an Army soldier.

“they’re kept out because of security”?
Not so Gator.
The optics of the families of the dead screaming insults to both dementia Joe and his enabler Doctoro Jill is beyond what the Democrat handlers will allow.
Thus keep the families at bay.

“ Seeing press not allowed when he meets families.”
*****************************************************
I didn’t go to the linked article because a prerequisite was to allow their use of cookies. But I’m betting the families won’t be allowed to have their smartphones on them when they meet with the CIC - for “security” reasons, of course.

Yet again, Biden pretends to be relevant

He wears gloves so the blood on his hands is not visible

I’ve been on this board 21 years.

I’ve seen hundreds of posts either calling for civil war to freaking start already or just saying that they think it must come.

Not sure what justifies one more than a successful coup against a sitting POTUS.

Of being told where, how and when to live.

Having our government use COVID as the boogeyman like Germans did with Jews.

Just like Jews were always committing a new “offense” against Germany, COVID will have another “variant” for us to be diligent about...and always fearful of.

It’s the excuse for the govt to do anything.

The Germans did a lot of damage under the pretense of “protecting” Germany from Jews.

If NOW is not the time for a revolution/civil war...what is!!?

Mother of U.S. Marine Rylee McCollum, who died in the Kabul bombing: “all you Democrats … who voted for [Biden], you just killed my son …[He’s a] feckless dementia ridden piece of crap who decided he wanted a photo op on September 11th.”

I think I’ll watch the movie Taking Chance again today. If the movie is accurate then I will know that the bodies of our fallen heroes will be treated with the respect they deserve and didn’t get from Joe Biden.

That's probably because they don't want it publicized when the families berate and turn their backs on the White House delegation ...

“Notre Dame had Obama speak”

Seems to me I recall the phoney Catholics running that show moved or covered up the Crosses when Obango came to town.

That’s my point. Lawyers don’t go to battle.

I should have clarified that from him being the best child.
Not that there’s any competition.
