CNN’s Scott Jennings Puts Signal Controversy Obsessed Democrats in Their Place With Biden Afghanistan Reminder

In case you haven’t noticed, Democrats and their allies in media, are trying to turn the Signal nontroversy into a major scandal.

It’s all so tiresome. The left is so desperate to drum up fear, hatred, and distrust of Trump that they’ve taken a nothing story and dialed it up to eleven, just as they’ve done with every other stupid story meant to ‘get’ Trump.

Over on CNN, Scott Jennings, the lone voice of reason, reminded his colleagues that the deaths of thirteen service members in Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal were far worse than their imagined outrage about Trump.

Townhall reported:

During his CNN appearances this week, Scott Jennings has certainly weighed in on “Signalgate,” given how much Democrats and their allies in the media insist on harping on it so much. Conversations about “accountability” took place, and from the Biden-Harris administration’s own top aides, which Jennings was having none of…”I think Republicans aren’t interested in any lectures on accountability in the military after the Biden administration. I mean, the bar for getting rid of a secretary of defense is apparently pretty high. You can get 13 people killed and go AWOL and not tell the commander- in-chief, and that’s not a fireable offense,” Jennings aptly added, reminding about not only the 13 U.S. servicemembers killed at Abbey Gate in the August 2021 terrorist attack, but also how then Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was out for cancer treatments without people knowing.

Jennings made a similar point on another CNN program when a liberal commentator was engaging in a ridiculous ‘what if?’ daydream.

PJ Media reported:

On Friday evening, Lulu Garcia-Navarro made the laughable attempt to convince viewers that this situation was somehow worse than Secretary Lloyd Austin’s catastrophic failures—such as the one that left 13 American service members dead, or the time he went AWOL while his deputy lounged on vacation, cocktail in hand. With a straight face, she actually suggested that if this had happened under the Biden administration, someone would have been held accountable.“If this was a Democrat or a democratic administration who had foolishly, unconscionably created a group chat to have discussion about a military operation that was top secret, I think, Scott, you would have been the first person to call for those people’s resignation,” Garcia-Navarro argued…“You don’t have to make up hypotheticals, Lulu, about if this happened in a democratic administration,” Jennings countered. “Let me take you back in time. In a Democratic administration, the secretary of defense oversaw a disastrous military operation in which 13 servicemen died in Afghanistan. Then to try to make up for it, they vaporized like seven children in a drone strike. Then later, the secretary of defense went AWOL and didn’t even tell the commander-in-chief.”

Watch:

Democrats and the media seem to think that everyone has completely forgotten the Biden presidency.

They are mistaken.
