BIDEN LETTERS ON AFGHANISTAN
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, on August 26, remarks
regarding the terrorist attack at the Kabul, Afghanistan, airport, with
the murder of 13 American servicemembers, the Commander in Chief stated
that military leaders have contacted him, `` . . . usually by letter,
saying they subscribe to the mission as designed. . . . ''
That evening, I sent the first of four letters to the White House
asking for all letters referenced, with no reply. The decision to
withdraw U.S. forces from Afghanistan abandoning Americans has been
correctly identified by President Donald Trump as the worst foreign
policy disaster ever for American families. This leads to murderous
attacks over open borders into America.
Where is the American media on this crucial issue of the claimed
Afghanistan letters?
Sadly, no response from the White House reveals admission of no
letters.
In conclusion, God bless our troops who successfully protected
America for 20 years, as the global war on terrorism moves from the
safe haven in Afghanistan to America.
