What the Biden Administration Wrought in Afghanistan

"It left behind total devastation". Reflecting unfavorably on not just Joe Biden, but the United States and the people of this nation who choose silly leaders like him.

"The Taliban seized more than $923 million worth of military aircraft; $4.1 billion worth of ground vehicles; and more than $511 million worth of weapons when they took control of Afghanistan, according to the report.
