| Kirby: 'No use in responding' to a 'handful of vets' on Biden's botched Afghan withdrawal | ||

[FoxNews] On the anniversary of 9/11, White House National Security Council communications adviser John Kirby
"Obviously no use in responding. A ‘handful’ of vets indeed and all of one stripe," Kirby said in a "reply all" email chain Wednesday afternoon that appeared to be intended for White House staffers, but which also included Fox News Digital. Fox News Digital had reached out to the White House earlier Wednesday afternoon regarding critical comments from four veterans, including Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., who blasted Kirby for his Monday press conference that they said provided "cover" for the Biden administration's 2021 withdrawal. Included in that initial reachout were quotes from the four veterans, and Fox News Digital asked the White House if it had any comment to include on the vets' blistering criticisms of Kirby and the White House's handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal. The email chain was forwarded to White House staffers on the National Security Council, before Kirby replied to all on the chain that there's "no use in responding." Kirby's message was sent in error, with him following up with a Fox News Digital reporter, "Clearly, I didn’t realize you were on the chain."

| #7 as contemptible as this is, Kirby is likely the closest to being sane in the entire Biden leadership team |

| #5 Huh. A Quick noodle search says some 800,000 different military personnel stationed in Afghanistan over the 20 years just to watch Team Brandon stick a broomstick up their ass. Well, those still alive that is. |
