Biden leaves behind US-sponsored journalists he promised to evacuate from Afghanistan
Fox News
The United States was unable to evacuate U.S.-employed journalists from Afghanistan despite the Biden administration promising to get them out of the country.
"My office was working with one of these journalists and tried for two weeks to get attention brought to his case so he, his wife, and his infant child could be saved – but our pleas were ignored. I am calling on the president and the State Department to rapidly find ways to get these people to safety and away from the threats President Biden and Secretary Blinken enabled," he added. Fox News confirmed that Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) journalists were unable to get aboard the last flights from Afghanistan on Monday, after national security Adviser Jake Sullivan said on Sunday that groups prioritized by the U.S. government made it to evacuation planes.More Related News
