Biden mourns Navy SEALs presumed dead off Somalia
BY BRAD DRESS - 01/22/24 11:56 AM ET
 
President Biden arrives at White House in Washington, D.C., on Monday, January 22, 2024 after spending the weekend in Delaware.

President Biden on Monday mourned the loss of two Navy SEALs who are presumed dead after they went missing off the coast of Somalia earlier this month during a special covert mission to seize Iranian missile parts bound for Yemen.

Biden said in a statement that the presumed deaths of the two SEALs were a “profound loss for our country.”


“These SEALs represented the very best of our country, pledging their lives to protect their fellow Americans,” Biden said. “Our hearts go out to the family members, loved ones, friends, and shipmates who are grieving for these two brave Americans.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Did he ask what type of seals they were?  Were they harbor seals or fur seals? :whistle:

The only thing Biden mourns is Beau(never his first wife and daughter, they were memory holed) and his ice cream when it melts before he can eat it.

Biden said nothing. The White House issued a statement, but only after being called out by the RNC on Twitter for not giving a rat's rear end about the SEALs.
The abnormal is not the normal just because it is prevalent.
