Fox News reports:
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said Friday that President Biden “deserves to be impeached” if the United States leaves any Americans or Afghan allies behind when evacuating Afghanistan.
“If we leave any Americans behind—if we leave thousands of those Afghans who fought along our side behind bravely—Joe Biden deserves to be impeached for a higher crime and misdemeanor of dereliction of duty,” said Graham during an appearance on “Fox & Friends.”
Graham again clarified his statement with more precision. Graham asserted that the U.S. is “duty-bound” to get every American out of Afghanistan safely, and also “honor-bound” to do the same for Afghans who fought alongside American soldiers.
We are DUTY bound to get every American citizen out of Afghanistan.
We are HONOR bound to get those Afghans who bravely fought by our side out.

If we leave any Americans behind, or if we leave thousands of Afghans who fought bravely alongside us behind, President Joe Biden deserves to be impeached for a High Crime and Misdemeanor of Dereliction of Duty.

No call for impeachment in this one. Weird. pic.twitter.com/GP6NuLGzJY
