Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who is friendly with President Joe Biden, told CBS this weekend that he believes POTUS should be removed from office, slamming the president for the botched withdrawal in Afghanistan that \u201cset the conditions for another 9\/11.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s dereliction of duty to leave hundreds of Americans behind enemy lines, turn them into hostages, to abandon thousands of Afghans who fought honorably along our side, to create conditions for another 9\/11 that are now through the roof,\u201d the senator told \u201cFace the Nation\u201d host Ed O\u2019Keefe,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2021\/aug\/29\/lindsey-graham-impeachment-call-joe-biden-afghanistan\">according<\/a> to The Guardian.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Graham and Biden have had a friendly relationship for years, though recent tension has built between the pair over Graham\u2019s support for Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you can\u2019t admire Joe Biden as a person, then you got a problem,\u201d Graham <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2021\/aug\/29\/lindsey-graham-impeachment-call-joe-biden-afghanistan\">said<\/a> in 2015. \u201cYou need to do some self-evaluation. \u2019Cause what\u2019s not to like?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Though Democrats control the House and the Senate, \u201cGraham told CBS he still thinks Congress should make Biden the fourth president it has tried to remove, after Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Trump,\u201d The Guardian noted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhose decision was it to pull all the troops out? Was it good advice, ignored? I just don\u2019t know,\u201d Graham questioned Biden\u2019s decision-making during the interview. \u201cI think he should be facing a lot of consequences here, because the one thing he wanted to do, and he\u2019s a decent man, it\u2019s not about him being a decent man, is he wanted to end the war in Afghanistan and make sure we didn\u2019t have to deal with it in the future. He\u2019s done the exact opposite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGeneral Biden\u2019s fingerprints are all over this,\u201d he continued. \u201cHe\u2019s created the conditions for ISIS to flourish in Afghanistan. They\u2019ve doubled the number of troops available because of the jailbreak. A terrorist organization called the Taliban is now in charge of the country. The likelihood of an attack on our homeland is through the roof. It was medium a month ago. It\u2019s got to be high as hell right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe did not end this war,\u201d Graham emphasized. \u201cPresident Biden said that he wanted to take this- Afghanistan off the plate for future presidents. He\u2019s done the exact opposite. For the next 20 years, American presidents will be dealing with this catastrophe in Afghanistan. This war has not ended. We\u2019ve entered into a new deadly chapter. Terrorists are now in charge of Afghanistan.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Within a matter of hours of Biden\u2019s telegraphed withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Taliban took over the country\u2019s capital. Americans and U.S. allies were stuck behind enemies lines, where some reportedly remain desperate to leave. Meanwhile, the Taliban are apparently helping provide security for Americans during this dangerous time, though the Biden administration has acknowledged the Taliban are not our \u201cfriend\u201d and cannot be trusted. At least 13 U.S. service members, thus far, have been killed in terror attacks outside the Kabul airport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe parade of horribles are about to unfold,\u201d Graham warned. \u201cWe\u2019re leaving thousands of Afghan allies behind who fought bravely with us. We\u2019re going to leave hundreds of American citizens behind. The chance of another 9\/11 just went through the roof. These drone attacks will not degrade ISIS. The number of ISIS fighters have doubled. We\u2019ve turned our back on our allies who\u2019s going to help us in our- in the future. And we set the conditions for another 9\/11.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>By recognizing the Taliban as legitimate, the Republican argued, the Biden administration is \u201cgoing to put Americans at risk all over the world because other terrorist organizations will say how the best way to get America\u2019s attention and legitimacy is to kidnap some Americans or people who fought with America. We\u2019re in a very dangerous situation in Afghanistan. And I worry about the consequences of how we deal with Afghanistan can affect our footprint all over the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
