I cried through most of this interview. I am so sad and angry. The message from this loving father is for us to give our hearts and souls to God. Put our pain and suffering in his hands. He is the ultimate healer.

I still can't believe that ol' Joe never met with these families. Absolutely disgraceful. Everyone just think about that on voting day.

Thanks Sasha for providing the link.

I couldn't take my eyes off this interview. Heartbreaking and infuriating. This will stay with me for a long time. Wow.

I have been utterly appalled by the way the Biden administration "handled" the withdrawal from Afghanistan. The interview with the young Marine's father was very moving. The young man was a follower of Jesus Christ and is in heaven, but his loved ones are still here as are the families of the other young people killed in this man-made disaster.

God bless you, Steve Nikoui and grant eternal rest to your son. Like so many other Marines before him, he was ready to give his life for his country, his family, and his Corps. We will always be in his debt.

At somewhere around 14:30, he says that JoeB could have done something - a gesture even - that would have rallied support around Joe himself. Just express sadness and empathy. The reason why people rally behind Trump is because he does not come off the way that these ultra powerful lefties (and many of the "old school" powerful right) come off: utterly devoid of any human empathy, and unmotivated by anything other than personal power (I know all the Trump-haters will jump up and down and scream and pull their hair out, maybe even hit their kids or kick their dog, at that comment lol). Biden's reaction to Afghanistan brings back memories of Benghazi when Obama couldn't be bothered to make a statement because he had a big "A-list" fundraiser in Las Vegas or LA the next day, and Hillary Clinton said (later) "what does it even matter?" when asked about the Americans murdered because of her inaction and ineptitude.

If it doesn't help Joe, f* it. He can't even spend 1 minute expressing sympathy because that minute is a distraction for him, and he literally does not care one iota.

This story is heart breaking.

That was powerful

Just a reminder, Fox News paid a nearly $800M settlement for knowingly misleading the public and telling trump voters that their votes were not counted.

When deposed, Hannity, Tucker, Bret Baier, Maria Bartiromo, et al. all testified that in private conversations they knew trump’s claims were false but they told the exact opposite story on air to low-information voters for the ratings.

Carlson: trump’s claims were “ludicrous and off the rails”

Hannity called trumps team “F’in lunatics”

Dana Perino: “it’s nuts”

Bret Baier: “there is no evidence of fraud. None.”

Tucker on-air: “the stolen election was the single greatest crime in American history with millions of votes stolen in a day. Democracy destroyed, the end of our centuries old system of government.”

40% of Americans believed this drivel, including you.

Nice point...that has NOTHING to do with this story.

Agreed. But it explains the general sense of outrage at Biden

This was a very moving program. Thank you, Steve Nikoui. You are a strong man, but know that many of us out here feel his pain. God bless you and our family.

Wow! What that incredibly humble, blessed Dad revealed at the very close of this interview was beyond profound!

God bless him and his family mightily even more than He clearly already does!

Great interview Tucker. I’m sure all the other parents are hurting as much or more.

"The charges have since been dropped." That is not the point, Lawfare designed to ruin the family IS the point. And they are executing it. Not against their illegal immigrant serfs, of course, but...

That would be ‘spin,’ a.k.a., BS. Have you ever known any Democrat anywhere to take the blame for anything? I rest my case.

Biden's handlers are the problem, although Biden can barely stand up straight any longer. So, he should not be in the Oval Office. He clearly is a face for those controlling the WH and making the worse decisions in DC since Carter.

I see. So Biden's NSC "investigated" itself and found Biden and themselves guilt free and assigned all of the blame to Donald Trump? Should we be surprised?

I missed the part where Trump had him arrested. Did he?

I missed that part too, Sasha. And, I tracked the Trump administration very closely.

That was a lie. Check your facts and don't believe the BS.
