If we put our veterans first, American greatness follows
The Republican Party is united behind our service members

OPINION:

One year after President Biden’s disgraceful Afghanistan withdrawal, the Republican National Committee is proud to open its first-ever Veterans Community Center in Virginia Beach, home to the largest naval base in the world.

It’s been 12 months since 13 U.S. service members were needlessly killed in Kabul, and this center represents a commitment of respect, honor and gratitude for the sacrifice of our more than 19 million veterans across our country. It is a message that no, their courage is not taken for granted, and that, yes, the Republican Party is united behind our incredible veterans.

Thus, we must work together to save our country in November. While Mr. Biden vacationed during the one-year anniversary of Kabul’s fall to the Taliban — wanting to forget that one of the biggest foreign policy disasters in American history happened under his leadership — it’s clear that our country sits at a crossroads, with two very divergent paths ahead. Under Mr. Biden, our country is less respected around the world with one foreign policy crisis after another, alienating allies and emboldening enemies. Here at home, freedom is under assault, our border is wide open, and our children are being taught to hate our country in their schools.

If (as we did in my youth) place those who conduct themselves with honor and perform heroic deeds in high esteem, then as youth there is something to shoot for, a measure of who you are and what you are as a person. While some of those marks will seem impossibly high, the only separation between a true hero and an ordinary guy is often the spur of the moment reaction to an opportunity to do great deeds.

Not like today where everyone seems to fumble for the video button on their phone, people sprang into action, often without even thinking for their personal safety, often spurred by the flash thought of "What if that was me needing help?"

But in a culture where everything is viewed as though life is on a screen, and the connection between people has been broken by intervening electronics, people have been conditioned to watch or record, but not act. Sad.
