President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden paid an evening visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center outside Washington Thursday, one week after the ISIS-K terror attack at Kabul’s international airport that killed 13 US service members and injured 20 more.
The president’s motorcade arrived at the Bethesda, Md. hospital just before 8 p.m. after making the short drive from the White House. The White House press office put out a one-line statement saying that the Bidens were visiting “wounded warriors.”
The Marine Corps Times reported Wednesday that 15 Marines who were injured in the blast outside the Abbey Gate at Hamid Karzai International Airport were being treated at Walter Reed. Maj.

“Can a Marine refuse to be harassed by Joe ???”
Probably no. As the president, to include Biden somehow, he is the commander of the US military forces and can order the visit if the docs say it is safe. But the media is not going to say they wouldn’t talk to him or suddenly needed to sleep from exhaustion when he arrived. After all, they are recovering.

Joe's just acting like his bud John Kerry
I bet Biden checked his watch many times.
