AMERICAN FAMILIES AT RISK
(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. Mr. Speaker, last Thursday, Secretary
of State Blinken admitted at the Foreign Affairs Committee hearing that
175 Americans are still in the terrorist safe haven of Afghanistan,
despite the Biden promise of leaving no Americans behind.
President Donald Trump was correct; the surrender was the greatest
foreign policy humiliation in U.S. history.
Biden refuses to release letters he claimed, on August 26, 2021, that
blamed military leaders for his disastrous decision.
A March 6 Washington Post editorial said the Biden administration
will be judged by victory in Ukraine, liberating all of Ukraine from
war criminal Putin. Democracies with rule of law must prevail over
authoritarians by rule of gun with the Ukraine invasion, Taiwan
threats, and nuclear capabilities against Israel and America.
Sadly, with an open southern border with nearly 200 names of known
terrorists crossing under Biden, American families have never been at
greater risk of mass murder.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, who successfully protected
America for 20 years from the global war on terrorism as it continues
moving from Afghanistan's safe haven to America.
Our prayers for the families in Nashville.
