(100percentFedUp) Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) on Friday introduced articles of impeachment against U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin for the Biden administration’s disastrous 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal.
“High-level officials in this administration blatantly ignored intel that Americans and our allied partners in Kabul would be left behind in harm’s way unless the U.S. corrected course in our withdrawal. As a result, nearly 200 people, including 13 American servicemembers, were murdered at Abbey Gate in Kabul, Afghanistan two years ago,” Mills said.
“Because of this clear dereliction of duty, today I am introducing articles of impeachment for Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. It’s not enough for Congress to hold committee hearings. We must start taking real action to address the complete failure of this administration.”
“Tomorrow marks two years to the day that we lost 13 of our brave servicemembers. The fact that it has been two entire years without any member of this administration being held accountable is unfathomable. That changes today,” he added.

I am proud to join @CoryMillsFL in his articles of impeachment for Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.
There must be accountability for the embarrassing withdrawal in Afghanistan that killed hundreds of people and thirteen American soldiers.#NeverForget https://t.co/9dURPIufoU
