Biden-Harris ABANDONED Troops In Latest Report

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) stated over the weekend that the release of his committee’s long-awaited report on the Biden-Harris administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan was delayed due to obstruction from the administration.

The 353-page report criticizes the administration for its handling of the withdrawal, accusing it of “misleading and, in some instances, directly lying to the American people at every stage of the process, from before the go-to-zero order until today.”

When asked by CBS News’ Margaret Brennan on “Face The Nation” if the timing of the report’s release was related to the upcoming election, McCaul addressed the issue.

“No,” McCaul responded. “It’s taken me two years to get to this point because of the obstruction. I’ve had to sort of subpoena after subpoena, move to compel, threaten to, you know, hold the secretary in contempt to get information, like after action reports, all these documents, testimonies that we finally got to. Why is it important right now, Margaret? Because of the foreign policy is at stake. What happened after Afghanistan impacted the world. Why? Because Putin responded by invading Ukraine two months after Afghanistan fell. Chairman Xi, Putin made an unwholly alliance in Beijing threatening the Pacific now. And then the Ayatollah reared his ugly head in the Middle East. And we’re seeing this.”

McCaul also noted that ISIS terrorist suspects who were arrested on U.S. soil after illegally crossing the southern border had been released from Bagram prison during the withdrawal. He mentioned that the investigation will continue beyond the election because there are still many unanswered questions.

“We have a lot of unanswered questions regarding the DOD,” he said. “You know, what happened on the ground? Why were these snipers left basically unprotected? Where was the surveillance equipment that was videotaping? Why don’t we have one video of the suicide bomber going off?”
