Today marks an incredibly sad day for the United States of America. It's been 18 months since a U.S. service member was KIA in Afghanistan before today. The Biden "administration's" incompetence has cost now at least 10 United States service members their lives. Our brothers and sisters. Over 60 Afghans also lost their lives as well. 1,500 - 3,000 estimated Americans remain in the hostile, now Taliban run regime surely to die if it were up to the current "administration." Last night, I was standing shoulder to shoulder and hand in hand with Army Colonel and PA Senator Doug Mastriano, and Airborne and Pittsburgh, PA mayoral candidate Tony Moreno. There were several other retired service members in attendance as well - some seeing both Kandahar and Iraq. My heart bleeds with the loss of these men and women - these heroes and for their families. In years prior, it was letters to home. Those had to be gutwrenching and I'm sure tens if thousands of families wanted to avoid their mailboxes at all times. Of course, now it is phone calls. There is nothing worse than making that phone call. There is also nothing worse than being on the receiving end of that same call. At least 10 of these calls will be made today as families sit now and anxiously await to hear if their kin are among those needlessly murdered due to this "administration's" epic failures. My heart goes out to everyone who's served and these heroes and their families. I'm working, trying to hold in the tears as I type this. Please pray for these heroes. Pray for their families, and pray for those stranded there left to die. Then, please pray for all of us. THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN UNDER TRUMP & POMPEO. ❤🇺🇲🇺🇲🙏🙏🙏🇺🇲🇺🇲❤
