NBC’s Welker: Biden Is Blaming Trump for Afghanistan Withdrawal Disaster, While Also Denying It Was a Disaster
Breitbart ^ | 6 Apr 2023 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 04/07/2023 7:04:48 AM PDT by SoConPubbie

On Thursday’s broadcast of “NBC Nightly News,” NBC News Chief White House Correspondent Kristen Welker reported on the Biden administration’s review of the withdrawal from Afghanistan and noted that while the Biden administration attempts to blame the Trump administration, the Biden administration has maintained — both in 2021 and today — that the evacuation wasn’t a mess, despite the fact that, to this day, “Afghan interpreters who helped the U.S. are in hiding.”

Welker said, “Tonight, nearly two years after the deadly and disastrous American withdrawal from Afghanistan, those stunning images of Afghans desperately chasing U.S. planes, and the airport terror attack — which killed 13 U.S. servicemembers — the Biden administration releasing its after-action review, trying to pin much of the blame on former President Trump, who had left office eight months earlier, including citing sharp drawdowns of U.S. troops.”

She added that while the report acknowledges the evacuation should have started sooner, “President Biden, at the time, called the withdrawal a[n] ‘extraordinary success’.” And played a clip of White House National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby saying that he doesn’t “buy the whole argument of chaos.”

Welker concluded, “Meanwhile, in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan tonight, women face new oppression and Afghan interpreters who helped the U.S. are in hiding.” And “Just last month, the CENTCOM commander warned ISIS in Afghanistan could conduct terror attacks against U.S. interests abroad in under six months.”

I doubt he sees any problem with that. I doubt anyone in his administration would see one either.

Accidental Journalism by Welker and she’s too stupid to know what she did.

Biden has NOT told the truth about ANYTHING in over 50 years.

HE will NEVER change those tactics.

We CAN ONLY CHANGE PRESIDENTS

The United States is in peril. We are on the precipice of losing our Constitutional Republic at the hands of those believing in Socialism and Marxism. This threat is contrary to the founding principles as defined in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. America’s retired flag officers ask you to join with us to help save the nation.

Barak casheired 240 + flag level officers his first week of his first term.

Commie infiltration into our military since 2008.

Not only was the Afghanistan withdrawal Trumps fault but also the San Francisco Fire of 1891 and subsequent earthquake of 1906 as well as WW1 and WW2, the Viet Nam War, the assassination of JFK, Climate Change, the Russians attacking the Ukraine and he’s also a key suspect in Noahs Flood.
