Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) dropped by The Ingraham Angle to discuss her outburst during President Biden’s State of the Union address; Boebert challenged Biden, admonishing him for failures in the Afghanistan withdrawal that resulted in 13 dead U.S. service members.
“I want to remind everyone who may be concerned about me speaking up at the State of the Union that Joe Biden was 100% responsible for the deaths of the 13 brave service members we lost in Afghanistan. And last night, he took zero responsibility for it,” Boebert said on “The Ingraham Angle.”
During the State of the Union, Biden said “troops in Iraq have faced in Afghanistan face many dangers … Many of the world’s fittest and best-trained warriors in the world, never the same. Headaches, numbness, dizziness, a cancer that will put them in a flag-draped coffin.”
Boebert interrupted, “You put them in, 13 of them.”
“When Joe Biden started talking about flag-draped coffins, I got fired up. My mind went straight to the 13 soldiers that died in Afghanistan. The mother of one of those heroes lives in my district. She told me Joe Biden killed her son. So you’re darn right I spoke up. And if I could redo last night, I would absolutely do it again.”
