TINA RAMIREZ FOR CONGRESS: STANCE ON AFGHANISTAN

August 16, 2021

Regardless of where you stand on America's involvement in Afghanistan over the past two decades. It has been made apparent that Joe Biden's expedited and careless withdrawal has created an entirely preventable foreign policy disaster.

Joe Biden addressed the American People and stated that the Taliban would not regain control of the Country. Now we see that the Taliban was able to take control in a matter of days.

Senior Military leadership made it abundantly clear that this exact scenario would unfold.  Joe Biden either lied directly to you or is astoundingly ignorant.

But now, as we watch Afghanistan unravel what our dedicated service members sacrificed to build and support, and as we watch a human rights disaster and a national security crisis unfolds, Biden is hiding at Camp David.

This is disrespectful to the thousands of lost lives and squandering of trillions of tax dollars.

Our Military deserves better.

Our US personnel deserve better.

Our Afghan allies deserve better.

And the women and girls of Afghanistan deserve better.

We need real leadership and experience guiding our foreign policy. There is too much at stake for us to tolerate this level of incompetence and recklessness.
