During Joe Biden’s State of Union address the president was discussing the struggles of veterans who return home however, never acknowledge the 13 service members that died during the withdrawal in Afghanistan.
If it wasn’t for Rep. Lauren Boebert who shouted “13 of them” when Biden mentioned flag-draped coffins the media would have given Biden a pass.

“When Biden said flag-draped coffins I couldn’t stay silent. I told him directly he did it. He put 13 in there. Our heroic servicemen and women deserve so much better,” Boebert said.
CNN’s Jake Tapper criticized Boebert claiming she should be condemned for shouting during the speech.
“In a different era, a congresswoman shouting and heckling the president at the SOTU while he was talking about US soldiers Killed In Action — and was about to invoke his own dead son — would be widely condemned across the political spectrum. Starting with her caucus leader,” wrote Tapper.

What really has the left mad is that Boebert brought attention to the fact that Biden ignored the death of 13 servicemembers because of his incompetence.
The left is pissed because I called out Biden’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan that left 13 of America’s finest in a flag-draped coffin.
They are mad because a speech was “interrupted”.
Ask the the families who lost their loved ones how interrupted their lives are now.

The official excuse for why Biden didn’t address the fallen soldiers was because he did have time.
Press Secretary Jen Psaki confirmed on MSNBC that Biden didn’t have the time to honor the 13 Marines and Sailors that died on his watch.

The Biden administration is a disgrace.
