Sixty-six progressive Democrats are telling President Joe Biden to open the nation’s border to Afghan migrants because the U.S. bears moral responsibility for the wars in Afghanistan.
“After decades of disastrous U.S. intervention, one thing is clear: We have a moral responsibility to provide safe harbor and refuge for the Afghan people,” the August 26 letter, which does not set an upper limit on the inflow of Afghan migrants, states.
“The U.S. war in Afghanistan has caused irreparable harm to Afghans,” the letter claims, without mentioning the many hard-fought humanitarian gains Americans delivered or mentioning the almost 2,400 dead Americans — in the two decades since 2001.
The letter is from the House’s progressives, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA), Rep. Gwen Moore (D-WI), and Rep. James McGovern (D-MA). It reflects their view that foreigners are entitled to easy access to the United States because “white supremacy” in the U.S. is responsible for the many ills in the world.
The U.S. must provide Special Immigrant Visas to many Afghans who fought alongside the U.S. military and must invite many more into the P-2 refugee program, the progressives say:
Also, “Humanitarian parole must … be extended to other vulnerable groups in Afghanistan, including women’s rights activists, human rights defenders, religious minorities, LGBTQ+ individuals, and journalists,” the letter, again, which does not set an upper limit on the inflow of Afghan migrants, states.

I demand reparations for American Taxpayers.
ML/NJ
If you could stop them from stealing elections they would be extinct by now
Whitey must be watered down and eliminated.
Americans have to pay for a war in HellHoleistan and now they want us to pay for a bunch of muslims to come here and collect welfare. So basically no matter who is in charge Americans get stuck with the bill.
I thought for sure this would be the Babylon Bee.
The DNC … worthless POS from firs5 to last.
I demand reparations for having to live with inner city savages.
Who owns the convenience stores, the gas stations, and other small businesses in inner-cities? People from India or Middle Eastern descent.
“If you could stop them from stealing elections they would be extinct by now.”
Yep.
“Progressives” a.k.a communists are ruining this country.
66 progressive democrats (at a minimum) need to be shipped to Afghanistan.
Absolutely right.
I want money for the time the puny, low IQ and morally weak cowards of Afghanistan were too lazy to fight for their own freedom. George Washington's men often lacked shoes and the British could sometimes tack their movements by the trails of blood in the snow behind them.
Afghanis were waiting around for the Americans to risk their lives.
So we want our reparations, and tell your fellow welfare cheats in BLM the same thing. Reparations from them for wasting our money and business losses on their crime, riots, looting and rapes that kept us from having crime free areas with less policing costs.
Have them go after the bush and Cheney family. Let them pay.
Pushback hurts like payback, Dems.
