'Sit Down and Shut Up': Alexander Vindman Fires Back at Ohio Republican Over Afghan Refugees

[COL Mustard]

6. FIGHT This With All Our Might, He Says

We should be welcoming Afghan refugees, many or most of whom helped us over the past 20 years. We're working to get one family resettled and it's a lot of work. Just think of things from their perspective. In most cases they've lost friends or family to Taliban violence, maybe others to covid, they'll never see their homeland again, they've lost whatever status they had back home and are literally at the mercy of kind people here (and there are lots and lots of kind people here).

We welcome anyone who wants to come here and make a better life for themselves and their families, and oh by the way, a better United States. At least we should welcome them.

Remember also, the people who come to the US have been screened multiple times for any possible terror ties and if there are any, they don't come here. And again, many of them put their lives on the line to help our troops. We owe them.

Rant off.
