They didn't have the authority. And Trump used them for his campaign, contrary
to Arlington's rules. It's as simple as that.
It's not simple.
It's disgusting.
You do realize that Joe Biden took at photo op that was used in a campaign advertisement back in
2020?
And YES there were some technical differences.
Here they are:

However the important issue is that you libbys, in lock step with the radical left wing media are
focusing on some very minor points in order to flip the script and take the focus off the fact that
instead of being at Arlington cemetery on that solemn day Joe Biden was sleeping at the beach in DE
and Harris was on the campaign trail spewing her usual gibberish.
Here is YOUR president disrespecting the fallen heroes.
Is he checking his watch again?

Did you actually follow that link?
And even worse, this was all due to Biden/Harris ineptness and Harris to this day claims she stands
by that horrid decision and that the withdrawal from Afghanistan was a success.
Success?
Really?
Tell that to the families of the 13 heroes who lost their lives and the 100's if not 1000's of
Afghans who helped the US that were left behind and facing imminent death by the Taliban.
Why did the Taliban want #FelonDon to win?
Are you that fucking stupid?
Excuse the French but this is a hell of a lot more important than building 7 charging stations with
billions of taxpayer dollars as it shows how insensitive the democrats are.
That's one reason why I refer to them as demons.
And they prove it every single day.

Pic of Mike Pompeo meeting with Taliban leader
comes back to haunt him as he critiques Biden
on Afghanistan
Mr Wallace responded, however, by pointing out
that Mr Pompeo himself had pushed to legitimise
the Taliban’s leadership under the Trump
administration, which eventually inked a
ceasefire deal that largely resulted in the
Taliban shifting their military attacks to
target local security forces and the Afghan
National Army.
"Do you regret giving the Taliban that legitimacy?
Do you regret pressing the Afghan government to
release 5,000 prisoners, which they did, some of
whom are now back on the battlefield fighting with
the Taliban?" asked Mr Wallace.

The U.S. military was blindsided Thursday by
President Donald Trump’s assertion that all U.S.
troops will be out of Afghanistan by the end of
the year, with U.S. officials saying they are
not aware of such a plan and have gotten no
actual order to accelerate the more gradual
pullout they’ve been executing.
Trump’s comments, laid out in a confusing
progression of comments and a tweet, alarmed
Pentagon and State officials who fear that
putting a definitive date on troop withdrawal
could undercut negotiations to finalize a peace
deal between the Taliban and the Afghan government.
They also fear a hasty withdrawal could force the
U.S. to leave behind sensitive military equipment.
And they continue to stress that the Taliban has
still not met requirements to reduce violence
against the Afghans, a key element of the U.S.
withdrawal plan.
The Taliban welcomed Trump’s announcements ...

President Ashraf Ghani of Afghanistan on Sunday
said his government would release a last batch of
Taliban prisoners, removing the final hurdle in
the way of direct negotiations with the insurgents
to end the country’s long war.
His announcement came after a consultative
assembly where he had been advised by thousands of
representatives from across the country.
The release of 5,000 Taliban prisoners, which the
United States agreed to in a February deal with the
insurgents that also began the phased withdrawal of
American troops, faced opposition from the Afghan
government, which is holding the prisoners. After
prolonged pressure from the Trump administration,
Mr. Ghani released 4,600 prisoners from a list
provided by the Taliban but called for consultations
over 400, who he said were accused or convicted of
major crimes, including murder, that were beyond his
authority to pardon.

The Taliban have mounted more than 4,500 attacks
in Afghanistan, marking a sharp escalation in
violence, in the 45 days since signing a deal
with the United States that paves the way for a
U.S. troop drawdown, according to data seen by
Reuters.

President Trump's reelection bid received a vote
of support Friday from an entity most in his party
would reject: the Taliban.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told CBS News
in a phone interview, "We believe that Trump is
going to win the upcoming election because he
has proved himself a politician who accomplished
all the major promises he had made to American
people, although he might have missed some small
things, but did accomplish the bigger promises, so
it is possible that the U.S. people who experienced
deceptions in the past will once again trust
Trump for his decisive actions."
Another senior Taliban leader told CBS News, "We
hope he will win the election and wind up U.S.
military presence in Afghanistan."
