Biden-Harris administration hits troubling new record. Is this what you want America?

Rising tensions in the Middle East and unrest in South America led to calls for the failed foreign policy record of the Biden-Harris administration.

“A President Harris would continue the disastrous policies of the Biden-Harris administration and add fuel to global fires.”

Nearly nine years after the attack on the US diplomatic compound in Benghazi claimed the lives of US Ambassador Chris Stevens, diplomat Sean Smith and former US Navy SEALs Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods, the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan dated back to the fall of Saigon. in 1975.

The failed first year of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris may have been sold as an airlift success, but it marked a trend all too common across the administration that State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus mark as a record.

“The Biden-Harris administration has set a new record for most embassy evacuations of any presidency in U.S. history, surpassing Obama's eight. But it doesn't stop there: 16 nations have faced coups or overthrown governments under Biden and Harris,” he began. “Blinken's State Department has partially or fully evacuated 11 US embassies through ordered or authorized departure directives. These include our diplomatic posts in Burma, Chad, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Nigeria, Sudan, Niger and Haiti”.

“In multiple cases, military protection and escorts were needed to protect American citizens in Haiti, Sudan and Afghanistan. Despite assurances that we will not see a Saigon-style evacuation of Kabul, this it is precisely what we witnessed with horror,” Ortagus continued before listing coup attempts and overthrown governments in Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, the Central African Republic, Chad, Gabon, etc. Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Haiti, Mali, Myanmar, Niger, Sri Lanka, Somalia, Tunisia and Venezuela.

“A President Harris would continue the disastrous policies of the Biden-Harris Administration and add fuel to the global fires,” he said after calling attention to the fragile situation in Venezuela after the election, as the public pushed back the grip of Nicolás Maduro in power.

Earlier this year, Kentucky House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R) sent a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken in March as part of an investigation into the closures and evacuations of the embassy, ​​as the committee noted: “These closures and reductions in services are leading to a decline in the US diplomatic presence abroad. The closures and reduced service status have serious implications for citizens of North Americans residing in these countries, as well as for foreigners who must travel elsewhere to access consular services.”

Before the letter, The Daily Signal reported that Biden's 11 surpassed his former boss, then-President Barack Obama, who “presided over the second-most embassy evacuations of any administration with a total of eight in two terms (Egypt, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Central African Republic and South Sudan), or about one per year.”

“Donald Trump presided over three partial evacuations in his four years as president,” the report added in comparison.

Similarly, Wyoming Sen. John Barrasso (R) called the Biden-Harris years “the administration of evacuations” when he questioned Blinken about the instability during a congressional hearing in May that saw the secretary defending the record as something that happens when Americans have a presence in dangerous parts of the world.

Whether in Burma, Belarus, Sudan or Haiti, there seems to be a dangerous growing trend of US withdrawal.
