It’s been one year since Pres. Biden knowingly abandoned the Afghans who worked for our military, CIA and State department to Taliban.
This SIV told me, “When Kabul fell — just imagine you’re a U.S. Embassy employee and the Taliban is now in power.”
This SIV told me, “When Kabul fell — just imagine you’re a U.S. Embassy employee and the Taliban is now in power.”
This man in the US Embassy in Afghanistan got an award from Ambassador John Bass @StateDept. Then he was refused entry twice at the Kabul airport gate before Biden ordered withdrawal and left him to fend for himself against the Taliban as a known American employee.

There is no such thing as a “high power rifle.”
But when asked by a reporter what gun was used in the horrific mass murder in Highland Park, the sheriff’s spokesman answered, “Right now we’re saying it’s a high power rifle.”
The liberal media reported this as fact.

Guns bought by Highland Park shooter, per sheriff spokesman :
1. KelTech sub 200 rifle chambered to fire pistol cartridges
2. Remington 700 rifle (didn’t give caliber)
3. Shotgun
4. Glock 43X handgun
NONE OF THESE ARE AR-15
