.@POTUS told the UN the U.S. is “no longer at war” on September 21. A week later, his top military commander for the Middle East, General McKenzie, said plainly: “The war on terror is not over, and the war in Afghanistan is not over either.” https://t.co/zuOTkclX1e — PolitiTweet.org

Worse, it strips out funding for the Iron Dome, a missile defense system that saves lives in Israel. We should be funding the government through regular order and in a bipartisan manner, but instead Democrats insist on partisan brinkmanship. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
I cannot in good conscience vote for this continuing resolution that falls way short for defense because it does not provide three to five percent real growth for our military as outlined in the National Defense Strategy. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Today, I voted against the continuing resolution proposed by Senate Democrats. — PolitiTweet.org

We just heard from two Afghanistan experts about what the Taliban victory in Afghanistan means for Americans and at-risk Afghans, for jihadist terrorist networks globally, for our ability to fight terrorism, and for our credibility. None of it was good news. https://t.co/8HCDa6YuvH — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
We heard this yesterday and again today: What happened in Afghanistan over the past few months “put a shot of adrenaline” into the arms of the global jihadist movement. Our country is less safe because of @POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org

Another thing we learned yesterday? Al-Qaeda is reconstituting in Afghanistan & Al-Qaeda & other terrorist organizations could have the capability to strike our homeland as soon as a year from now. Don’t forget - in August @POTUS falsely said Al-Qaeda is “gone” from Afghanistan https://t.co/TckDDbzLQT — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Military leaders advised @POTUS to keep at least 2,500 troops in Afghanistan. Reminder: On August 18, President Biden said, it “wasn’t true” that his advisors said this…“No one said that to me that I can recall.” Here's what Generals Milley and McKenzie told us yesterday ↓ https://t.co/9fNXyTckLp — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Yesterday, during substantial questioning from my @SASCGOP colleagues and myself, we learned a lot from top military leadership about President Biden's disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. Here are my top takeaways ↓ — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Tomorrow, @SASCGOP will hold a hearing with Afghanistan experts, where I hope to learn more about what’s next. We need a coherent counterterrorism plan from the Administration – and we have yet to see one. More info about tomorrow’s hearing here ➡️ https://t.co/Nkud8rETYX — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Yesterday’s hearing proved without a shadow of a doubt that @POTUS mismanaged the withdrawal from Afghanistan every step of the way. The worst part to me is that he has misled the American people about his decisions – he’s refused to take ownership for his mistakes. — PolitiTweet.org

The Oklahoma State Chamber and the Tulsa Chamber work incredibly hard to ensure Oklahomans are heard in Washington and I am proud of all we have been able to accomplish together over the years. https://t.co/pWqQDHlpVp — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Today, I had the chance to visit with @okstatechamber and @TulsaChamber in Washington. We had a productive conversation about strengthening our national defense, securing real infrastructure wins for OK and how we can work to overcome the failed policies of the Biden admin. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
One other thing I do know for sure: Our service members, starting at the top, did everything right within the circumstances they were given by their commander-in-chief. The failures belong solely to President Biden – that’s why he hasn’t been honest with the American people. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Today’s hearing confirmed much of what I suspected: President Biden ignored the advice of his top military leaders, including his commanders on the ground – and then lied to the American people about it. My full readout of today's hearing ↓ https://t.co/8VqJE8D6CQ — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Our military leaders confirmed they recommended maintaining 2,500 troops in Afghanistan to prevent the worst-case scenario we're seeing today. But President Biden said back in August that "no one said that to me that I can recall." I’m glad the truth is coming out. https://t.co/K8mf3yf19c — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Today’s testimony has left no doubt: President Biden was warned by his commanders that the Taliban would take over if all troops were withdrawn unconditionally, and the President ignored their advice. https://t.co/lwhBKKUHB9 — PolitiTweet.org

I hope we hold as many hearings as it takes to get all the answers we need. Today is just the start. https://t.co/TFzgS6znoY — PolitiTweet.org

The administration needs to be honest: Because of @POTUS’s disastrous decision, the terrorist threat to American families is rising significantly, while our ability to deal with these threats has been decimated. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
.@POTUS has no plan. We have no reliable partners on the ground. We have no bases nearby. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
The administration is telling the American people that the plan to deal with these threats is something called “over the horizon” counterterrorism, and that we do these types of operations elsewhere in the world. That’s misleading at best and dishonest, at worst. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
And then, @POTUS concluded the drawdown by doing the unthinkable: he left Americans behind. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
- We went from “we will never negotiate with terrorists” to “we must negotiate with terrorists.” - Worst of all: 13 brave Americans were killed in the evacuation effort. 3 days later, the admin said that it struck an ISIS operative – but, in fact, it killed 10 Afghan civilians. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
In August we witnessed a horror of @POTUS's own making: - Afghans died as they desperately gripped onto departing flights. - The Taliban is in a stronger position than it’s been since 9/11. - Terrorist Haqqani members are in senior government positions. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Members of #SASC on both sides of the aisle spent months urging the admin to evacuate Americans & Afghan partners sooner. But @POTUS & his advisers didn’t listen to his combat commander. He didn’t listen to Congress. He failed to anticipate what all of us knew would happen. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Throughout the spring, we saw many districts quickly fall to the Taliban—many without a shot fired. This is why I urged @POTUS in June to rethink his approach and maintain a small force in Afghanistan in order to prevent the collapse we ultimately saw. — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
Gen. McKenzie said in February—before the President decided to fully withdraw from Afghanistan—“you have to take a conditions-based approach.” He expressed concern “about the actions that the Taliban have taken up until this point." — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Jim Inhofe @JimInhofe
.@POTUS and his advisers who put our troops in a dangerous and difficult situation. Even worse: this was avoidable. Everything that happened was foreseeable. My colleagues on this committee and the commanders in charge—we saw it coming. — PolitiTweet.org
