Published | Video Starts at 04:04

And I want to flash back to when then just U.S. senate candidate who's now the vice president, J.D. vayner, who just got a raft of criticism over this, said, no, these people should not be coming in here. After this failed withdrawal in Afghanistan and that disastrous withdrawal by the Biden administration, by Joe Biden, who cost us lives at Abbey Gate, 13 lives, has now continued to cost American lives. It's just, it's unconscionable that we're dealing with this right now. And now West Virginian has lost their life and another one is struggling for their life. Enough of this. (04:04–04:22)
