Jeanine Pirro delivered a forceful critique of the Biden-Harris administration’s handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal and its broader immigration policies, focusing on what she described as a complete collapse of vetting procedures.

Speaking about the administration’s decisions during the 2021 evacuation, Pirro said the rushed operation brought 90,000 people into the United States without adequate screening.

Pirro pointed to conditions at Kabul airport as the clearest example of what she called systemic failures.

“Let me say one more thing, and it’s not about this case. It’s about vetting in general, the nonsense that the left gave us with this operation. Welcome allies. Look, there was no vetting. If you think there was vetting, I have a bridge to sell you,” she said.

She described the airport scene as chaotic and placed responsibility on Biden administration officials.

“If you saw the chaos that was going on at that airport in Kabul in Afghanistan. It was typical of what was going on in the Biden administration and the Pentagon.”

She criticized public statements from administration officials who defended the withdrawal.

“I believe it was Kirby and people in the Biden administration said the Afghan withdrawal that we all know was disastrous was a success. And that’s a quote. They call that a success, that chaos is not a success, that is a nightmare,” she said.

Pirro referenced the 13 American servicemembers killed in the attack at the airport, saying the loss was tied to indecision on critical security measures.

“Thirteen American servicemen and women were killed at that airport because the Biden administration couldn’t get their their facts together and couldn’t make a decision regarding the rules of engagement to take down a known suicide bomber.”

Pirro argued the vetting failures were not limited to the Afghanistan operation.

“So let’s stop namby-pambying around with this. Oh, we was vetted. There was no vetted. The welcome mat was thrown down. They even admitted that they short circuited the vetting,” she said.

According to Pirro, the administration not only accelerated the process but neglected to confirm basic background information.

“What they did was they brought in 90,000 people into this country that were not vetted. They told us all the other immigrants were vetted. What do we do? Call the FBI in Afghanistan and say, Gee, do you have anything on this guy? Did we call Venezuela and say, gee, how about your your criminal justice system? What can you tell me about this guy?”

She connected the issue to longstanding concerns about illegal immigration.

“It’s like the 10 20 million American illegals who have been let into this country. We don’t know who they are until we suffer the consequences that we have seen in Washington,” she said.

Pirro referenced her visit to the crime scene in Washington, describing its impact.

“I was on that scene, and it is a very sad place, and Sarah Beckstrom and her family did not deserve this. They should have been protected, which is a first order of government.”

Pirro closed by asserting that political motivations, not public safety, drive the administration’s approach.

“And the left ought to stop their nonsense and recognize that they are not speaking for the American people. They are speaking about ideology and politics,” she said.

She contrasted that with the priorities she described on the conservative side.

“Donald Trump, the president, the Attorney General and myself were interested in the facts in the prosecution, making people accountable. And rest assured, we will.”
