Gold Star Families From Abbey Gate Remind Biden Service Members Were Killed on His Watch

After Rep. Michael Waltz told the story of Donald Trump spending six hours with the families of those service members killed by a suicide bomber during President Biden's "successful" withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Republican National Convention hosted the Gold Star families, who named the names who those whom Biden never has.

Powerful moment here at the RNC, as the Gold Star families of service members killed at Abbey Gate during the Afghanistan withdrawal come out to a standing ovation and chants of USA! USA!

A reminder, during the debate last month, President Biden falsely claimed he has had no military deaths during his administration.

He doesn't remember.

Trump is getting emotional listening to the Gold Star families right now.

The parents of Marine Corps Corporal Hunter Lopez read the names of all 13 men and women who were killed in the attack on Abbey Gate in Afghanistan:

… who lost their lives at Abbey Gate."

That is a beautiful moment. These Gold Star families deserve everything and more for what was needlessly taken from them because of Joe Biden’s bungled withdrawal from Afghanistan.

This is hard to watch. I feel for the families and I can imagine the neglect they feel from the current administration.

RIP to their family members🕊️

When the audience recited back the names I lost it. I still have the same anger and sadness I experienced that day.

This is how our vets should be treated.

Meanwhile …

MSDNC cut away from the RNC convention just as Gold Star families of the 13 heroes killed in Biden's botched Afghanistan withdrawal were speaking of Biden's abject failure to lead.

Instead, they had DNC Chair Jaime Harrison on — cracking jokes.

Running cover for Joe Biden as always.

You do not hate the mainstream media enough. They are the enemy of the people.

Of course they did. The Afghanistan withdrawal was one of Biden’s greatest and most costly mistakes. It’s one of the biggest thorns in their side because they can’t excuse it.

MSNBC's coverage of the RNC has been less than stellar.
