Trump pays tribute to service members killed in Afghanistan pullout on ISIS attack anniversary — while Biden vacations
SUMMARY
On the third anniversary of the ISIS-K bombing during the chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal, former President Donald Trump paid tribute to the 13 U.S. service members who lost their lives. Trump attended a private event at Arlington National Cemetery, where he laid a wreath alongside injured veterans. Meanwhile, President Biden faced criticism for vacationing in Delaware instead of participating in a public commemoration. The White House had not released a statement regarding the anniversary. Trump and his team continue to criticize Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for their handling of the withdrawal, which they view as a failure that damaged the U.S.'s global standing. Gold Star families have also voiced their frustrations, contrasting Biden’s approach with Trump's attentiveness to their grief and loss.
