PARTY OF TREASON: Democrats BLOCK Vote To Require Biden Rescue Americans Abandoned in Afghanistan And Equipment Left Behind

This is by design. This isn’t ineptitude, this is deliberate. This is treason. We are under illegitimate hostile rule.

House Republicans Press to Hold Joe Biden Accountable for Deadly Afghan Withdrawal By: bretbart, September 2, 2021:

House Republicans are holding President Biden accountable for stranding up to 200 or more Americans while abandoning U.S. military equipment in Afghanistan.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) held a press conference to announce that House Democrats blocked a vote to “require” Biden to recover the military gear and Americans.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Ranking Member James Comer (R-KY) stated in a press release Tuesday that he is working to hold the Biden administration accountable through first receiving a briefing on the deadly evacuation through the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR).

“Committee Republicans invited the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction to brief Congress today, and I appreciate his willingness to come forward and his commitment to testify before the full Committee in the coming weeks,” Comer wrote.

Rep. Young Kim (R-CA) tweeted she will “keep pressing” to hold the Biden administration accountable. “There’s more work to do,” she added.

“No one left behind means NO ONE left behind. We left hundreds of Americans and more of our allies to the mercy of the Taliban,” Kim tweeted. “It didn’t have to be this way. I will keep pressing the Biden administration on how we let this happen.”

Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX), who said Monday he has constituents still stranded in Afghanistan, reiterated Tuesday his team is still endeavoring to save the trapped citizens.

“The State Department should be ASHAMED! My team is STILL working around the clock to try and help constituents get out of Afghanistan because the State Department had no problem leaving them behind,” Jackson said. “They’re useless!”

Reps. María Elvira Salazar (R-FL), Michael Waltz (R-FL), and Claudia L. Tenney (R-NY) introduced legislation to provide internet services to Afghanistan in light of the Taliban’s history of anti-modern policies.

“Thank you to @michaelgwaltz, @RepTenney, & all of my colleagues who have joined me in introducing the American Freedom & Internet Access Act and launching Operation Starfall!” Salazar tweeted.

The Washington Free Beacon reported Monday Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) is also demanding Biden turn over White House documents about why American citizens were blocked from entering the extraction point at the Kabul airport.

Johnson “is using his oversight authority to investigate allegations that U.S. military leaders prevented U.S. citizens and others from entering the Kabul airport as part of emergency evacuation efforts coordinated by nonprofit groups,” the publication wrote.

Congressional Republicans will likely demand all types of answers from the administration, which may include if the United States paid the Taliban for Americans security in Afghanistan.

On August 25, White House press secretary Jen Psaki was asked if the administration had paid any cash to the Taliban to help secure evacuation coordination.

“But I’m wondering: has the U.S. offered the Taliban anything in terms of cash or supplies to help facilitate this coordination?” the reporter asked.

“No. This is not a, quote, ‘quid pro quo,’” she claimed.

“We don’t want to annoy the Taliban. They might nuke us.”
“The Taliban don’t have nukes.”
“What day is it? Thursday? OK, technically, you’re right, but the shipment arrives tomorrow, so ...”

Recover the military gear how? Send the troops in again and have them scour the country till every broken-down Humvee is back in the U.S.?

When the leadership of the opposition party supported the steal, they lost all credibility as a deterrent to the Democratic far left agenda.

If that is the case than the deaths to any U.S. Citizens caused by the Taliban or any other Islamic Terror group in Afghanistan or Here in the United States are on the Rat party.

The Republicans had better wake up and start pushing that in the media.

Didn’t Pelosi block the reading of the names of the recent people killed in Afghanistan?

Now another insult.

The Dems in Congress must be exhausted.

“And so have you.”

So you think that the republican leadership will actually take active measures against the democratic agenda other than talk and fake positioning?

House is on vacation. The presiding officer was doing a gavel in / gavel out routine. Both chambers are on vacation.

But Nancy did call for the vacation (a couple weeks ago), so I suppose she's the one who blocked the reading. Add in all who voted to take vacation.

I thought abandoning the service dogs was bad enough.

then I heard about pulling his punches on the drone strike.

now this.

the more truth & facts that come out, the worse this looks for Quid Pro Joe as an intentional sell out of our country

This is going to make a great campaign ad. Americans of both parties believe no American should be left behind, they know someday it might be them.

The Demonicrats (including their voters) have long been domestic enemies of the United States of America.
