House Republicans Launch Investigation of Biden’s Disastrous Withdrawal from Afghanistan

Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan was a pivotal moment in his presidency. His poll numbers went down immediately and have never really recovered.

The American people were horrified by how it was handled and then things got worse when innocent American soldiers were killed in a bombing at the airport.

Now Republicans on the House Oversight Committee are finally launching an investigation of the withdrawal.

House Oversight Committee Launches Investigation of Biden’s Withdrawal From Afghanistan

“The Biden Administration was tragically unprepared for the Afghanistan withdrawal and their decisions in the region directly resulted in a national security and humanitarian catastrophe,” Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer said in a statement on Friday.

“U.S. servicemen and women lost their lives, Americans were abandoned, taxpayer dollars are unaccounted for, the Taliban gained access to military equipment, progress for Afghan women was derailed, and the entire area is now under hostile Taliban control,” Comer continued. “The American people deserve answers and the Biden Administration’s ongoing obstruction of this investigation is unacceptable.”

The Biden administration has previously withheld information from Republican members of the House Oversight Committee while Democrats controlled the lower chamber. But now that Republicans have their majority, the president and his administration won’t be able to avoid answering questions or turning over documents.

“With the power of the gavel, Oversight Republicans are determined to provide answers, transparency, and accountability,” Comer pledged of his committee’s newest investigation into the Biden administration. “Every relevant department and agency should be prepared to cooperate and provide all requested information. The American people expect nothing less,” Comer added.

This is the right thing to do.

President Biden's botched withdrawal from Afghanistan resulted in the death of 13 brave US servicemembers, Americans left behind enemy lines, and military equipment in the hands of the Taliban.

13 U.S. soldiers died and countless allies were left behind when Joe Biden botched the Afghanistan withdrawal.

House Republicans promised to investigate after the Democrats sat by silently and watched the disaster unfold.

We are keeping our promise. Investigations have begun. https://t.co/MQv6Z0EVnT

The American people deserve to know why this was handled so badly.

Rep. Ronny Jackson Blasts White House Report On Biden’s Health – Calls For End of the ‘Cover-Up’

Rep. Ronny Jackson of Texas is also a medical doctor. He was the White House physician for years.

He is calling out the recent report on Biden’s health and saying that everyone can plainly see that Biden’s mental health is in decline, which is of course correct.

He also notes that the recent report fails to address Biden’s mental health in any way.

Former WH doctor for Trump, Obama blasts ‘alarming’ Biden health report: ‘The cover-up needs to end’

Texas GOP Rep. Ronny Jackson, a former White House physician, is calling for an end to the “cover-up” of President Biden’s health after the president’s physical earlier this week claimed that he is healthy and fit to serve as commander in chief.

“The majority of Americans can see that Biden’s mental health is in total decline, yet there is no transparency from the White House on what’s going on, if anything, to address this issue and his inability to do his job,” Jackson told Fox News Digital. “Yesterday’s written physical exam report released by Biden’s physician, Kevin O’Connor, further confirms that this administration is still adamant about concealing the truth.”

Jackson also took issue with the fact that the report from Biden’s physical, the second one he’s taken since entering office, made no mention of the president undergoing a cognitive test amid his “deteriorating mental health.”

“Nowhere in the report was there mention of Biden’s deteriorating mental health,” Jackson said. “This is alarming, considering I have already sent three letters to the White House demanding that Biden receive a cognitive test and that the results be made public, all of which have been ignored. Everyone can see something is wrong — the cover-up needs to end.”

See Jackson’s tweets below:

We learned NOTHING from Biden’s physical exam. How bad is his cognitive issue? Is he on ANY drugs to treat his mental decline? This exam was a JOKE. COVER UP!!

— Ronny Jackson (@RonnyJacksonTX) February 16, 2023

WHY ON EARTH did Biden not get a cognitive exam? Trump had one, why not him? Biden’s ability to think and reason is GONE! He SHOULD NOT be President!!

— Ronny Jackson (@RonnyJacksonTX) February 16, 2023

The media is SILENT about the LACK of a cognitive exam for Biden. The American people want to know this information, and the media is doing NOTHING. They’re letting this incompetent buffoon drive our country over a cliff!!

— Ronny Jackson (@RonnyJacksonTX) February 17, 2023

Jackson is right about this. Democrats and the media tried to make Trump’s mental health an issue and now they’re ignoring Biden’s obvious issues.
