Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont (D) this week celebrated the White House’s request to accept hundreds of Afghan refugees following the Biden administration’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, proclaiming it to be “our obligation and our duty to ensure these Afghan refugees feel welcome” in his state.

Hopefully, they’ll be resettled in Greenwich and few other nice waterfront towns. Maybe one where all the Wall St folks live.

The obsession about Afghanistan from the Left like Governor Lamont and Right like Glenn Beck is a fantastic distraction from the COVID tyranny in the US in particular and Western nations in general.

We need to get our own house in order, its borders and its liberties.

If they settle them in New Haven and Hartford, they will be BEGGING inside a year to be sent back to Afghanistan where it is far safer.

As long as they are destroying others’ communities, not Ned’s, he loves these people!! What a Communist devil, just like Wolf and all other leftist governors.
