Republicans plan barrage of NDAA amendments on Afghanistan
Roll Call ^ | 31 Aug 2021 | Chris Marquette with John M. Donnelly

Posted on 08/31/2021 3:40:59 AM PDT by blueplum

The top Republican on the House Armed Services Committee said Monday the GOP has more than 50 amendments that seek to address the shortcomings Republicans see in the Biden administration’s handling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.

“We want to find out what happened to the equipment that was left behind. We want to know why specifically Bagram was abandoned,” Alabama Rep. Mike D. Rogers said, referring to U.S. military equipment left by U.S. troops that ended up in the possession of the Taliban, the Afghan political movement now running the country, and why the U.S. decided to leave Bagram Air Base in July.

“The president and his State Department drove that decision, not the military,” Rogers said...

The entire GOP belongs in Hell
which is where it threw its voters
for counterfeit money and votes.

the GOP is EVIL, incl. every single one which allowed
Romney and McConnell to take out the sitting POTUS.

If you look at the absolute key, the vital players, lose one and the sham blows up, crucial coup players, they are ALL Republicans! Barr, Roberts, Graham, Wray.

You wanna know “Why”, Mike?
You *really* wanna know?

It’s because the scumbag Republican party wanted to get rid of Trump so badly that they went along with the Big Steal. It’s because the GOP sat on their hands instead of fighting the socialists, just so the con that we call “ government “ could continue without interference from Orange Man.

The GOP play their parts well, don’t they?
They will strongly criticize on Hannity, Tucker, et al
They will organize committees.
They will have investigations
They will harshly question during those investigations
They will raise funds like Champs
They will spout the proper talking points to their base: conservative, pro-life judges! More military spending! Closed borders! Individual freedom! Apple pie! Hooray!!

Then they go to DC. Shut the doors. And high five the democrats. It’s all theater.

Oh goodie, they can put those next to the bills to defund Obamacare. All for appearance’s sake. They appear to be weak.

Now you are over the target. I would add the GOP on the highly corrupt Senate intel committee: Burr, Rubio, etc. And Nunes folded like a cheap suit after Ryan muzzled him. Then you have Dan Coats at DNI and his obstructions... The list is endless really. The coup and stolen election is ongoing and fully bipartisan in nature.
