President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have wasted no time in launching a sweeping investigation into the Biden administration’s catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021. And let’s be honest—this is long overdue.
At his first Cabinet meeting since returning to the White House, Trump did not hold back, making it clear that military leaders responsible for the botched operation will be held accountable. When asked whether his administration would remove the top brass who oversaw the withdrawal, Trump didn’t mince words:
“Well, that’s a great idea. I’m not going to tell this man what to do, but I will say that if I had his place, I’d fire every single one of them.”
And honestly? He’s right.
The Afghanistan withdrawal wasn’t just a failure—it was an embarrassment on the world stage. Thanks to Biden’s complete incompetence, 13 U.S. service members were killed, billions of dollars in military equipment was abandoned to the Taliban, and America’s enemies watched us retreat in disgrace.
Hegseth confirmed that a full-scale review of every aspect of the withdrawal is already underway.
“We’re doing a complete review of every single aspect of what happened with the botched withdrawal of Afghanistan and plan to have full accountability,” Hegseth stated.
Unlike the Biden administration, which promoted those responsible for the disaster, Trump and Hegseth made one thing crystal clear—there will be no rewards for failure.
“I don’t see big promotions in that group,” Trump said. “I think they’re going to be largely gone.”
Trump also highlighted the absurdity of leaving top-of-the-line military equipment behind for the Taliban.
“We left billions, tens of billions of dollars worth of equipment behind, brand new trucks,” Trump said. “You see them display it every year, on their little roadway, waving the flag and talking about America … that’s all the top-of-the-line stuff.”
This investigation is just the beginning of Trump’s America First national security agenda. Unlike Biden’s weak, incompetent leadership, Trump and Hegseth are restoring accountability and ensuring that America’s military never suffers another disgrace like this again.
“We’re taking a very different view, obviously, than the previous administration, and there will be full accountability,” Hegseth added.
No more excuses. No more incompetence. The Biden disaster is over, and real leadership is back.
