Gold Star Families Criticize VP Harris Amid Trump Controversy

In the wake of Vice President Kamala Harris's critique of former President Donald Trump's visit to Arlington National Cemetery, Gold Star families, who lost service members in Afghanistan, are expressing their anger and disappointment. Families of the fallen have been waiting for three years without a call or visit from the Biden administration to acknowledge their loss. They invited Trump to the cemetery to remember their sons and daughters, not as part of a campaign, but as a gesture of leadership and support. Families have asked for the media to present their loved ones' stories and highlight their sacrifice. Congressman Michael Waltz, who supports these families, pointed out that it reflects poorly on Harris and the Biden administration that they have not reached out to these grieving families. The ongoing criticism from Harris against Trump’s visit intensifies amidst a backdrop of rising tensions in foreign policy, particularly concerning Israel and Hamas. The Biden administration is criticized for its alleged mismanagement in dealing with Israel while focusing on politics rather than security. Háse where families have expressed that they've felt neglected by the Biden administration. As political discussions heat up, the situation raises questions about the integrity of upcoming elections, with Speaker Mike Johnson proposing legislation regarding non-citizen voting. The discussions within Congress revolve around not only veteran affairs but a host of critical issues that tie back to national integrity and accountability.
