McCarthy says Biden is leaving US hostages for the Taliban: 'He turned his back on our own citizens'
Fox News
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy blasted President Biden for sticking to an Aug. 31 withdrawal deadline from Afghanistan and said "thousands of Americans" could be left stranded in the Taliban-controlled country as a result.
Biden has faced bipartisan criticism for honoring the Taliban-backed withdrawal date for U.S. troops of Aug. 31 as Americans and Afghan allies are still seeking evacuation from the Kabul airport. The U.S. military is currently stationed at the airport and undertaking a major logistical operation to get Americans and others on outbound flights from Kabul. McCarthy called the withdrawal effort in Afghanistan the "the biggest foreign policy failure" and he accused Biden of turning his back on Americans.More Related News
