Mother of Marine Killed in Afghanistan Has Instagram Account Deleted After Posts Critical of Biden; ‘You Can’t F**k up as Bad as He Did and Say You’re Sorry’: Biden Meets With Pregnant Wife of Fallen U.S. Service Member

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Mail. Facebook temporarily deleted the Instagram account of the mother of one of the Marines killed in Afghanistan by an ISIS bomb last week after she publicly blamed President Biden for his death and the deaths of the other service members killed.

Shana Chappell is the mother of Kareem Nikoui, 20, who was killed in the ISIS bomb attack at Kabul airport on August 26. . .

On Friday, she posted a tribute to her son on Instagram that received thousands of messages of condolence. In the days since, she shared another tribute and a video of the country singer Coffey Anderson volunteering to sing at a funeral for the slain troops.

On Facebook, Chappell has repeatedly blamed Biden for her son’s death and in a post on Monday just before she had her Instagram account disabled, she wrote a long Facebook post directed at Biden where she described meeting him on Sunday at Dover Air Base. . .

Her account was suspended yesterday and was restored after she posted about being disabled on Facebook, and a Facebook spokesperson has since told DailyMail.com that it was deleted ‘incorrectly’ but it won’t say how the ‘mistake’ came about.

‘You Can’t F**k up as Bad as He Did and Say You’re Sorry’: Biden Meets With Pregnant Wife of Fallen U.S. Service Member

By Daily Mail. The family of a Marine who died in the Aug. 26 terror bombing in Kabul is blaming the Biden administration for the attack.

President Joe Biden met with the family of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Rylee McCollum on Sunday, The Washington Post reported. The length of the meeting, only a few minutes, showed a “total disregard to the loss of our Marine,” McCollum’s sister Roice said.

Rylee McCollum, a 20-year old from Wyoming, was one of 13 American soldiers killed by an ISIS-K suicide bomber outside Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul. His wife is pregnant with their unborn child. A GoFundMe for McCollum’s child’s education had raised more than $428,000 by the afternoon of Aug. 30.

Biden met privately with McCollum’s widow Jiennah, Roice McCollum said. During the meeting, Biden reportedly referenced his son Beau’s military service. The interaction struck the McCollum family as “scripted and shallow,” according to the Post.

“You can’t f— up as bad as he did and say you’re sorry,” Roice McCollum said. “This did not need to happen, and every life is on his hands.” (Read more from “‘You Can’t F**k up as Bad as He Did and Say You’re Sorry’: Biden Meets With Pregnant Wife of Fallen U.S. Service Member” HERE)

3-Year-Old American Stranded in Afghanistan by President Biden; 24 Students Left Behind; Biden Relies on Taliban To Get Them Home

/0 Comments/in , /by

By ABC News 7. The US troop withdrawal from Afghanistan has stranded between 100 and 200 American citizens who want to return to the states. One of them – a young boy born near Sacramento. I-Team reporter Dan Noyes has an exclusive, frightening story about what lies ahead for the child and his family.

This three-year-old boy was born near Sacramento; his passport shows he is a US citizen, and he’s going through a harrowing ordeal right now, unable to escape Afghanistan. We’re hiding his identity and that of his father, a social worker, and other family members who are all US permanent residents, for fear of them being captured by the Taliban.

James Brown, Veterans Advocate, told the I-Team, “I received a call Sunday morning at about 6 a.m. from a friend of mine who’s an active duty Marine Corps officer stationed overseas, and he basically felt like his hands were tied and he needed some help getting this family out.”

James Brown is a veterans advocate who’s been working since Sunday morning to get the family safe passage through the Kabul airport to the states. He contacted Representative Jackie Speier and her staff, who jumped into action.

“They’ve also made numerous phone calls to the White House, to the Secretary of Defense’s Office, and to the Secretary of State’s office escalating this family’s case all the way to the top for us.” (Read more from “3-Year-Old American Stranded in Afghanistan by Biden” HERE)

Report: 24 California Students Still Stranded in Afghanistan

By Breitbart. There are at least 24 students from the Sacramento area San Juan Unified School District, who are now stranded in Afghanistan by President Joe Biden, following the final withdrawal of U.S. troops Monday, according to a report.

The Sacramento Bee reported that the school district confirmed at least 24 students are in the country as Taliban terrorists are now in control of the majority of the country and the airport since the last troops evacuating people left.

However, this number is down from the school district’s original estimate of 150 students that had yet to return to campus since the start of the 2021-2022 school year.

The report noted that the office of Democrat Rep. Ami Bera, who represents the school district, has contacted the school district and is working with them to bring the students back since the original story broke of two students being stranded.

Bera’s office did not immediately respond to Sacramento Bee for comment. (Read more from “Report: 24 California Students Still Stranded in Afghanistan” HERE)

Biden Banks on Taliban to Rescue Stranded Americans

By Daily Caller. resident Joe Biden vehemently defended his decision to withdraw from Afghanistan during remarks Tuesday, dodging criticism over how the process played out while admitting that the U.S. will need to rely on the Taliban to continue getting Americans out.

The Pentagon announced that the last plane departed the Kabul airport Monday, marking the official end to the nearly 20-year war. Biden, who vowed to remain in the country until all Americans got out, didn’t keep his promise: Secretary of State Antony Blinken estimated around 100 to 200 Americans seeking to leave had been left behind.

For those Americans, the administration reiterated its commitment to getting them out. This commitment, however, relies in large part on the Taliban, as Biden would detail in his speech.

The president noted that Blinken is “leading the continued diplomatic efforts to ensure safe passage for any American, Afghan partner or foreign national who wants to leave Afghanistan.” Included in these “diplomatic efforts” was a “resolution” passed by the United Nations’ security council aimed at sending “a clear message that the international community expects the Taliban to deliver on moving forward.” The letter, Biden said, specifically highlighted the “freedom of travel, freedom to leave.” (Read more from “Biden Banks on Taliban to Rescue Stranded Americans” HERE)

Team Hillary Strikes Again: Failed Campaign Manager Played Role in Botched Afghanistan Evacuation

/0 Comments/in , /by

Yet another former Hillary Clinton aide appears to have played a role in the Biden administration’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal. Politico reported on Monday that Robby Mook, the Democratic operative who managed Hillary’s failed presidential campaign in 2016, was at the Kabul airport performing public relations duties during the evacuation of U.S. citizens and Afghan allies from the Taliban-controlled country.

Mook, a lieutenant in the U.S. Navy Reserve, has been on active duty abroad since February after taking a hiatus from Democratic politics. In addition to managing Hillary’s failed 2016 campaign, he was also a state director on her failed 2008 campaign. Most recently, Mook served as president of House Majority PAC during the 2020 election, when Democrats failed to defeat a single Republican incumbent and lost 13 seats in the House, despite winning the presidency.

According to Politico, the failed campaign operative was “part of a group of four public affairs officers dealing with press questions” at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul. An anonymous source described him as “just doing his job” and said the former Hillary aide made a self-deprecating remark about not being recognized.

At least Mook has actually served his country in uniform, unlike White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan, who was Hillary Clinton’s top aide during her tenure as secretary of state, as well as a foreign policy adviser on both of her failed presidential campaigns. President Joe Biden proudly nominated Sullivan to be “one of the youngest national security advisers in decades” and a key component of his inclusive foreign policy team.

‘Impeach Biden, Impeach Kamala Harris’ — GOP Rep. Goes off on Administration at House Freedom Caucus Press Conference (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

Colorado Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert said both President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris should be impeached during the House Freedom Caucus press conference held Tuesday.

“The blame starts at the top with Biden and his hand-picked Vice President who bragged that she was right there making the same bad decisions. And if not for her own dereliction of duty, she should be impeached for not demanding we invoke the 25th amendment. It is time for action. Impeach Biden. Impeach Kamala Harris,” Boebert said at the press conference.

“And throw in the Secretary of State if you can get him back from vacation. Take a vote to vacate the chair to get Nancy Pelosi the heck out of here,” Boebert added.

The comments came after Republican Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins introduced resolutions calling for the resignations of Biden, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and General Mark Milley prior to the press conference. The group of House Republicans slammed Biden and his administration, saying they failed at their job after at least 13 U.S. service members were killed in one of the deadliest days for U.S. service members in Afghanistan in over a decade.

The Republicans also pushed for a vote on a resolution to impeach Secretary Of State Antony Blinken, introduced Friday by Republican Reps. Ralph Norman of South Carolina and Andy Harris of Maryland. They said Biden, and specifically, Blinken were solely responsible for the ongoing bloodshed in Afghanistan.

Trump: Get U.S. Military Weaponry Back Or Else ‘Bomb The Hell Out Of It’

/1 Comment/in , /by

. . .The Biden administration has brushed off concerns, with Pentagon spokesman John Kirby claiming, on the issue of what was left behind, and whether any of it was destroyed, “Time’s not right for that right now.”

The Washington Examiner reported former President Donald Trump called on Biden to get “every penny” of the equipment or, in the alternative, “bomb the hell” out of it.

At least then it could not be turned back against the U.S. taxpayers, who paid for it.

“Never in history has a withdrawal from war been handled so badly or incompetently as the Biden administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan,” Trump wrote in an email statement. “In addition to the obvious, ALL EQUIPMENT should be demanded to be immediately returned to the United States, and that includes every penny of the $85 billion dollars in cost.” (Read more from “Trump: Get U.S. Military Weaponry Back Or Else ‘Bomb The Hell Out Of It'” HERE)

Congressman Predicts ‘Bloodshed’ if Elections ‘Continue To Be Rigged’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Republican congressman is predicting “bloodshed” if elections in America continue to be “rigged.”

The sanguine warning comes from U.S. Rep. Madison Cawthorn of North Carolina, who was addressing a crowd Sunday night.

“The things that we are wanting to fight for, it doesn’t matter if our votes don’t count,” he said, according to a now-restricted Facebook livestream and videos tweeted by a Democratic congressional staffer.

“Because, you know, if our election systems continue to be rigged and continue to be stolen, then it’s going to lead to one place – and it’s bloodshed.”

“I will tell you, as much as I’m willing to defend liberty at all costs, there is nothing that I would dread doing more than having to pick up arms against a fellow American,” Cawthorn said. (Read more from “Congressman Predicts ‘Bloodshed’ if Elections ‘Continue To Be Rigged'” HERE)

Florida Withholds Funds From Districts With Mask Mandates

/0 Comments/in , /by

Florida’s Department of Education announced that it was withholding funds from two school districts over their mask mandates.

Florida Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran announced Monday that the department has withheld funds in the amount of monthly school board member salaries from Alachua and Broward county districts for implementing mask mandates that parents do not have the option to opt out of, violating a state order.

The withholding of funds will continue monthly “until each school board complies with state law and rules,” the statement said.

The announcement comes as the state battles with school districts over imposing mask mandates, in defiance of Gov. Ron DeSantis (R). As of last week, 10 districts accounting for more than half of the state’s enrollment have imposed mask mandates.

Earlier this month, Florida’s board of education voted to investigate Broward and Alachua and several weeks ago requested a list of annual salaries of all school board members in both counties. The Florida Department of Education said it would be withholding 1/12th of the amount each month from the district’s funds.

Father of Marine Seen Cradling Afghan Infant Reacts to Daughter’s Death

/0 Comments/in , /by

The grieving father of a U.S. Marine killed in a suicide attack at the Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul just days after she shared the now iconic photo of her cradling an Afghan baby described his daughter in a heartbreaking new interview as his “hero” and a true “warrior.”

“She’s a hero. She’s a warrior,” Marine Sgt. Nicole Gee’s father, Richard Herrera, told NBC’s “TODAY” in a recent interview from his home in Roseville, Calif. On Aug. 20, Gee had shared a photo to Instagram of her cradling an Afghan baby at the airport in Kabul, captioning the image, “I love my job.”

Filled with pride, Herrera quickly shared the photo with friends and family. Six days later, Gee was one of the 13 service members killed on Aug. 26 when a bomb went off outside Abbey Gate. Asked by NBC’s Erin McLaughlin what he sees in that photo now, Herrera answered “Just my baby. My baby.”

“It broke me for a while,” Herrera said of his daughter’s death. “It hit me hard.”

Gee, 23, of Sacramento, California, was a maintenance technician with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit from Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. Brig. Gen. Forrest C. Poole III, commanding general of 2nd Marine Logistics Group, said his unit mourned “the immense loss of Sgt. Gee,” and the others.

Once Again, Biden Points Finger at Trump Over Chaotic Afghan Withdrawal

/1 Comment/in , /by

President Joe Biden addressed the nation Tuesday afternoon for the first time since American troops fully withdrew from Afghanistan and pinned partial blame on former President Donald Trump for some of the chaos that unfolded during the withdrawal.

“The previous administration’s agreement said that if we stuck to the May 1st deadline that they had signed on to leave by, the Taliban wouldn’t attack any American forces,” the president said during his Tuesday speech shifting blame to negotiations Trump had with the Taliban before he took office. “But if we stayed all bets were off, so we were left with a simple decision. Either follow through on the commitment made by the last administration and leave Afghanistan or say we weren’t leaving and commit another tens of thousands more troops going back to war. That was the choice. The real choice between leaving or escalating.”

Biden said that the Taliban was in its “strongest military position since 2001” when he took office.

The president also added that August 31 was not an “arbitrary deadline” to withdrawal American troops but instead it was designed to “save lives.” (Read more from “Once Again, Biden Points Finger at Trump Over Chaotic Afghan Withdrawal” HERE)

Texas Heartbeat Law Allowing Private Citizens to Sue Abortionists Slated To Take Effect

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Texas Heartbeat Act, which allows private citizens to sue abortion providers, is set to take effect September 1, despite failed attempts by the abortion industry to block it through the courts.

However, at the time of publication, Texas Right to Life reported abortion provider Whole Women’s Health applied to the U.S. Supreme Court for an injunction to block the law:

Abortionists appealed to the High Court in Whole Woman’s Health v. Jackson, and Justice Samuel Alito will consider their application.

Texas Right to Life Legislative Director John Seago responded:

The abortion industry is using their last, desperate option in an attempt to block the life-saving Texas Heartbeat Act from taking effect Wednesday. This anti-Life lawsuit is invalid. We are hopeful that Justice Alito will examine the compelling arguments raised explaining why the case should be ultimately dismissed.
