1. Cotton and Gabbard are the new propagandists for Trump’s MAGA movement. They’re taking pages right out of Goebbels playbook. Lie repeatedly.

4. Biden and Harris’ fault, it’s obvious why the families didn’t want them there.

5. While the withdrawal was executed under Biden, it was the Trump administration that brokered a deal with the Taliban to leave the country in 2020. After the bulk of American forces left under Biden, the U.S.-backed Afghan government and military quickly fell at the hands of a Taliban attack.

   Those are facts.
