NextImg:John Kirby tells the truth on Afghanistan failure: For Biden-Harris, dead soldiers mean nothing

National Security Council spokesman John Kirby accidentally told the truth about the Biden-Harris view of the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal: When members of the arms forces criticize you, arrogantly double down. 

“Obviously no use in responding. A ‘handful’ of vets indeed and all of one stripe,” smirked Kirby in a note he accidentally cc’d a reporter on, referring to criticism from four veterans slamming the flack and his bosses.

This is the attitude taken by an White House that utterly botched our withdrawal from a key geostrategic hotspot. 

By a cadre of political careerists who let Afghanistan fall to a bloodthirsty terrorist enemy and saw 13 service members killed in a terrorist attack on Kabul airport. 

No use in responding. Pathetic. 

And it’s only appropriate that Kirby would blow himself up like this via a mistaken “reply all” — the story of administration incompetence in a nutshell. 

Kirby’s boss, Joe Biden, has displayed an identical callousness. 

Checking his watch during the ceremony for the soldiers his failed policies got killed. 

Keeping the families of those honored dead at a distance.

Insanely blaming his predecessor Donald Trump for the carnage he himself caused. 

Kirby’s plainly rattled by the House Foreign Services Committee release of a damning 350-page report on the catastrophe, the result of a multi-year probe, that places blame squarely on the shoulders of the president he serves. 

But the correct response would be chastened humility — not cold, partisan indifference to the human costs of Biden’s failure motivated.

Yes, partisan: Kirby’s line plainly implies is that the vets would be worth responding to, if they had different politics. 

That’s the moral core of Biden-Harris: politics above all. 

It’s killing Americans at home and abroad, and a Harris victory in November will ensure only ugly continuity.
