OPINION:
Since coming into office, Joe Biden’s administration has overseen the systematic dismantling of the nation left intact by his predecessor. Today’s America is unrecognizable not only to Americans but to our allies around the globe, too. This reckless destabilization has had disastrous effects on our status among nations, our security, our economy, our education system and our national identity. We have an incompetent president, a delinquent vice president and a malfeasant speaker of the house. In short, we have a formula for disaster.
The culmination of this was our tragic withdrawal from Afghanistan, a debacle that disregarded the most basic military principles, as well as common sense itself. Joe “The Buck Stops Here” Biden clandestinely pulled out our troops, leaving behind unprotected American citizens and $3 billion in planes, tanks, Humvees, weapons,and uniforms - as well as a carefully constructed, state-of-the-art airfield. This windfall to the Taliban constituted the greatest gift any nation has ever bestowed on an enemy.
Thanks to Joe Biden, we have equipped these terrorists to be a formidable army now able to better attack the U.S. — and all this on the eve the twentieth anniversary of 9/11.
Despite the inevitable Democratic dance at the current congressional hearings, the trail of this fiasco inevitably leads directly to Biden himself. There is only one word that defines “giving aid and comfort to the enemy”: treason. Could the Taliban have prayed for anything more? Could the U.S. have dreaded anything more? Thanks to our own president’s betrayal we are now 100 times more vulnerable than we were 20 years ago at 9/11.
There can be no greater reason for the impeachment and immediate removal of a president.
