So, we're pleased also to be joined by Christy Chamblin, person I know and I've gotten to know over the last year or so, the mother-in-law of fallen Marine Corps Sergeant Nicole Gee. Nicole made the ultimate sacrifice during the disastrous withdrawal. Not that we were withdrawing, I was going to withdraw, but we were withdrawing with dignity and strength and power, and we were going to keep Bagram the big air base because of the fact that it was so close to where China makes their nuclear weapons. One hour away, we should have kept it, and we didn't do that, but the way they withdrew, they took the soldiers out first, "No, you take the soldiers out last." I went 18 months without one soldier, I spoke to Abdul, the leader of the Taliban. We went 18 months without one soldier even being shot at, no soldier being killed. For 18 months, then we left, and you had this group of incompetent people take over. Guys like Millie should have been fired. They should have been fired. Anybody that was involved with that disaster should have been fired. She was one of 13 U.S. service members who lost their lives. Kamala said she was the last person in the room, that Kamala was the last person in the room. She was involved in everything. She takes credit for that. She was involved in everything. That means she was involved in disaster after disaster, because nothing good has happened with this administration, except that our country has gone to almost a third world status with Biden. When Biden made a decision, she said she was there, oh, she was there, but the Afghanistan decision was a disaster in so many different ways, and now you take a look at it. They're right back to what they were doing before, except much worse. Much worse to women. They're worse to women right now than they were even before it started, but Kamala never reached out to the family members of the warriors, and she said she was going to, but she never did. I can't hold anybody, and, Christy, I'd like you to come up and say a few words, please. Hi, good afternoon, good morning. My name is Christy Shamblin, and my daughter-in-law was Sergeant Nicole Lee Ann Gee, and she was killed in the botched Afghanistan exit at Abbey Gate. She was the cornerstone of a very large family, and instead of planning family gatherings and holiday meals and Christmases and baby showers, our family and thousands of other families plan outings at funeral grave sites, and that is where we as a family celebrate my daughter-in-law at Arlington National Cemetery, because she is in the ground. Her story isn't unique to our family, she's just ours. There are thousands and thousands and thousands of wounded veterans who came home from that war, who need our help and who are ignored by our current administration. And Trump demonstrates peace through strength. I know what he told the Taliban when he was negotiating with them, because I've made it my business to know. And what he said to them when he was negotiating with the Taliban, he said, "I will kill you if you harm one hair on one head of an American." President Trump shows up, he reaches out, and he can fix our country, and we can all heal together. Thank you very much. So many cases, so many cases like this. Nobody should have died. First of all, when they left, the soldiers should have been there, they shouldn't have been home watching, except for a small group, and many of them got killed in large numbers. Many of them inches, the arms, the legs, missing, gone, the face just obliterated. Nobody talks about them. I talk about them all the time, but I want to thank you, Christie, and we'll carry Nicole's memory in our hearts forever.
