Gold Star Father Put in Handcuffs for Protesting Biden During State of the Union Over Deadly Abbey Gate Terror Attack in Afghanistan
Gateway Pundit ^ | 3-7-2024 | Kristinn Taylor

A man identified as Steve Nikoui, the father of Marine Lance Col. Kareem Nikoui who was killed in the August 21, 2021 terrorist attack on Abbey Gate at the Kabul Airport during Joe Biden’s retreat from Afghanistan that killed thirteen U.S. servicemembers and about 170 Afghan civilians trying to flee the triumphant Taliban, was arrested and put in handcuffs by security at the Capitol Thursday night after he heckled Biden about the attack during the State of the Union address. Listeners heard Nikoui call out “United States Marines!” and “Abbey Gate!” among other things in the brief outburst. Nikoui was reportedly charged with a misdemeanor.

A man was escorted out of the House chamber amid Biden’s speech after standing up and yelling at the president. The man was sitting in the gallery of the chamber. At one point he yelled, “United States Marines.” #SOTU2024

Nikoui was a guest of Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL).

Foldi also posted an outraged reaction sent to him by Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI), a former Navy SEAL, ““If Gold Star families are being arrested and a member of congress [@JamaalBowmanNY] was not arrested for committing a felony, that’s not right.” #WI03’s @derrickvanorden to me on this”

Rep. Mast posted his approval of his guest’s outburst, “For the last three SOTU speeches, Joe Biden REFUSED to say the names of the 13 U.S. servicemembers who were killed by his disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. I couldn’t support this effort more. Say their names!”

The families of the fallen do not feel they have been treated fairly by Biden. On Wednesday, Christy Shamblin, the mother-in-law of Marine Sgt. Nicole Gee who was also killed in the Abbey Gate attack, appeared on CNN, shocking host Abby D. Phillip by telling her Biden has not spoken to her family at all and that the White House has ignored their pleas.

CNN anchor left STUNNED when gold star mom says that Biden has NEVER reached out to her family about her daughter-in-law's death.

CNN: "He's often called the 'Consoler in Chief.' He does talk to families who've lost loved ones…Have you experienced that from him?"

The UniParty arrests an American Patriot Gold Star Father, while allowing terrorists and barbarians to invade our country and murder Americans and then permitting them to go free to murder again.

This is what you see when good people are pushed to the edge.

I was hoping someone would speak out while the domestic enemy occupier was spouting his BS. I was thinking it might be Marjorie Taylor Greene who has more guts in her pinky than the entire RINOpublican party, and I’m even more glad this patriot did as well. I can’t even imagine the hell he’s going through. And let’s not forget the Americans left behind in Afghanistan and totally forgotten about, just like the Jan.6th stolen election protestors are still rotting in the DC gulag. The threat of a stolen election is still very real, and sad to say very likely to happen again as absolutely nothing is being done about election integrity.

The Afghanistan withdrawal was an embarrassing disaster.

A lot of people got killed.

Truly a clown show.

I’ll never forget seeing those poor people falling from the airplanes.

Very bad optics, Joe. You jerk. (That’s mild compared to what I want to say, but I’ll mind the rules.)

Biden treats KIA families like trash. He only cares about illegals.

I’ll never forget seeing that jerk, Biden, checking his watch multiple times, while standing on the Dover Air Force Base tarmac, when the bodies of 13 killed in action American Military Heroes were brought home from Afghanistan.

And he did it right in front of their families.

I cannot listen to that demonic beast

She is the voice of endless, effortless lies

Just like Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama
