US President Joe Biden is under fire from the Republican Party in the United States because of the Afghan crisis and the death of 13 US soldiers in an attack on Kabul airport. 

The third-ranked House Republican, Elise Stefanik, criticized Biden’s policy towards the last incidents in Afghanistan and said in a tweet that “Biden has blood on his hands.”

Joe Biden has blood on his hands.

The buck stops with the President of the United States.

This horrific national security and humanitarian disaster is solely the result of Joe Biden’s weak and incompetent leadership. He is unfit to be Commander-in-Chief.

— Elise Stefanik (@EliseStefanik) August 26, 2021

Senator Josh Hawley described what happened in Afghanistan as enraging and called on Biden to resign. 

To say that today’s loss of American lives in Kabul is sickening does not begin to do justice to what has happened. It is enraging. And Joe Biden is responsible. It is now clear beyond all doubt that he has neither the capacity nor the will to lead. He must resign

— Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) August 26, 2021

Republican Marsha Blackburn demanded Biden administration officials to step down.

Kevin McCarthy, the Republican minority leader in Congress, remarked that Biden's actions demonstrate weakness and incompetence. He also said to be a leader, one must have the confidence of the American people, a thing that Biden had lost.

All remaining US residents in Kabul must be evacuated by August 31, McCarthy said, adding that the US will have sufficient time for accountability after August 31 and that the hour of truth will arrive at some point in the future.

Political strategist Liz Smith of the Democratic Party made a comparison, finding that Democrats were more serious in their demands for Biden's resignation than Republican's calls on Trump to resign - "resign" is depicted as a meaningless phrase that Republicans use to make themselves look stupid.

It is reported that, after the attacks on Kabul airport, Biden declared from the White House, "I bear responsibility for fundamentally all that’s happened of late." US President Biden expressed his outrage and sorrow over what happened. "Our hearts are broken," he said.

ISIS branch in Afghanistan, which carried out a fatal strike in Kabul last week, was the focus of Biden's request to US military officials.

It is time to finish this twenty-year conflict, said President Biden as he defended the choice to withdraw entirely from Afghanistan and how this withdrawal will be implemented.
