Gold Star mom blasts ex’s ‘complete BS’ arrest for heckling Biden at SOTU over Marine son’s death, calls prez ‘a failure’

The mother of a Marine killed during the US’ botched withdrawal from Afghanistan on Saturday called “BS” on the fallen hero’s father getting arrested for heckling President Biden during his State of the Union address.

“I was shocked because I thought it was complete BS that they arrested him,” Shana Chappell told The Post. “He shouldn’t have been arrested, he’s a Gold Star father. He’s in the same room as the man that he knows is responsible for our son’s death, so why was he arrested?”

Chappell, 51, of Lake Elsinore, Calif., said she’s still struggling to survive nearly three years after her son, Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, was killed by a suicide bomber at a military base outside Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul during the Biden administration’s botched withdrawal on Aug. 26, 2021.

The mom of five said she learned of ex-Steve Nikoui’s plan to disrupt Biden’s State of the Union address by shouting their son’s name on Thursday and supported the 51-year-old’s staged confrontation.

“I obviously didn’t watch the State of the Union because I have a bad taste for Biden, but then all of a sudden, I started getting text messages from friends who said (Nikoui) got arrested,” Chappell said.

Steve Nikoui, who yelled “Abbey Gate” during Biden’s speech, referring to the military base where his son was killed, was taken into custody on charges of crowding, obstructing or incommoding Congress — a misdemeanor typically resulting in a $50 fine.

Chappell said she “absolutely” blames Biden for Kareem’s death — as well as the subsequent suicide of his brother, Dakota Halverson, 28, in August 2022.

Will Mr Nikouri get the press tour that Cindy Sheehan got during the Bush II administration?
A redundant question but so is much of what we see in TV anyway.

Any decent man in Biden’s position would immediately pardon the man and direct criminal charges against him to be dropped. Biden is such an asshole.

My heart breaks for this woman. Her other son killed himself by his brother’s memorial.

Biden and everyone behind him and propping him up deserve public executions for treason.

God willing.

On that note...

@EndWokeness

The FDNY firefighters who booed NY AG Letitia James will be punished and face reeducation.

FDNY firefighters are now being asked to turn themselves in or risk being hunted down.

Memos and emails from the Uniformed Fire Officers Association (UFOA) & Uniformed Firefighters Association are circulating.

Charge Biden for negligent manslaughter for the deaths in the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Where is an AG with the guts and sense of decency to do this?

Am I the only one who sees Nazis Germany in 1939? “Just come and sign up for questions or we will come and get you, and you will rot in “jail”.

Biden apologizes to a murderer.
Then arrests a father who son was murdered by Biden’s stupidity.
