Mom of Marine who died in Kabul attack: Biden voters ‘killed my son’


The mother of a US Marine killed in Thursday’s terror bombing outside Kabul’s airport claimed that Americans who voted for President Biden “just killed my son.”

Kathy McCollum, whose 20-year-old son, Rylee, was among 13 US service members killed in the attack, told conservative talk show host Jason Rantz that she blamed the “dementia-ridden” president for his death, Newsweek reported.

“Twenty years and six-months-old, getting ready to go home from freaking Jordan to be home with his wife to watch the birth of his son, and that feckless, dementia-ridden piece of crap just sent my son to die,” she told Rantz.

“I woke up at 4 o’clock this morning,” McCollum said. “Two Marines at my door telling me that my son was dead.

“I just want all you Democrats who cheated in the election, or who voted for him legitimately, you just killed my son,” she claimed. “With a dementia-ridden piece of crap who doesn’t even know he’s in the White House, who still thinks he’s a senator.

“So, I’m gonna try to calm down,” she added. “Sorry.”

The dual blasts on Aug. 26 in the Afghan capital killed more than 180 people in all and came as US and allied forces scramble to evacuate thousands from the airport.

The rush to evacuate comes after US forces near the deadline to withdraw from the war-torn country after a protracted 21-year occupation — with US-armed Afghan forces fleeing in the face of an onslaught by the extremist Taliban.

The terror group ISIS-K has been blamed for carrying out the attack.

On Sunday, a US airstrike took out another would-be suicide bomber near the airport and a rocket struck the capital city farther north, killing a child.

The Pentagon has warned that another terror attack is “imminent.
