“Harris’s statement a political spin to boost presidential campaign” — Family of 13 fallen US service members
Family members of the 13 U.S. service members who tragically lost their lives during the tumultuous withdrawal from Afghanistan have launched a scathing critique of Vice President Kamala Harris.
Their grievances, which have been making rounds on social media, were amplified by former President Donald Trump, who shared the family’s heartfelt videos on X, formerly known as Twitter.

The families have directly blamed Harris and the current administration for the deaths of their loved ones, expressing profound disappointment and anger.
In a powerful statement, they accused Harris of using their tragedy as a political tool.
“Kamala, your statement is nothing more than a political spin to help you look better in your presidential campaign against Donald Trump,” one family member asserted, reflecting a sentiment of betrayal and frustration.
The controversy took yet another turn with the mention of an incident at Arlington National Cemetery. The family members clarified their stance, countering Harris’s moral outrage over the so-called “incident.” They stated, “What happened at Arlington was President Trump was invited by those families who have their soldiers buried at Arlington.
Adding a deeply personal touch to their statements, the families addressed Harris directly, expressing the emotional chasm between their experiences and her political narrative.
“You have never walked a single day in our shoes. Our kids were murdered because of your administration, and you are partly to blame for that as well.”
These words resonate with the pain and loss that the families continue to endure, highlighting the ongoing impact of foreign policy decisions on individual lives.
This confrontation marks a significant moment in the political discourse surrounding the Afghanistan withdrawal, raising questions about accountability, leadership, and the complex emotions that intertwine with national security decisions.
