Throughout an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday over the weekend, Mullin blamed the deaths on President Joe Biden’s U.S. departure, described as “fatally flawed” even by members of his party.
Mullin, who has helped his team on the ground in Afghanistan evacuate U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents (LPRs), emphasized that the State Department is aware of the identities of the deceased though, declines to report them to the public.
Nonetheless, a State Department spokesperson announced that “While we are not aware of a case fitting [Rep. Mullin’s] description described in the article, our hearts are with all families who have suffered or lost a loved one due to events in Afghanistan,” according to Breitbart.

The spokesperson emphasized that while the State Department is still committed to evacuating LPRs and at-risk Afghans, getting American citizens home is the Biden administration’s top priority.
In response to the department’s statement, Rep. Mullin announced on Tuesday that their words do not match their moves on the ground, according to Breitbart.

“Their words are cheap, and their actions are loud,” Mullin announced. “Nothing the State Department has done to date shows American citizens have been a priority, much less LPRs.”
Asked whether or not the State Department is aware of any nonmilitary American citizens who died or were murdered in Afghanistan after it ordered the Non-Combatant Evacuation Operation (NEO), the spokesperson refused to answer.

Mullin told Breitbart News Saturday the department declined to allow the three-year-old girl into the Kabul airport when the U.S. military was still evacuating Americans before President Joe Biden drew them out at the end of August because her parents were LPRs.

“While our first priority is always U.S. citizens, we will continue to communicate with LPRs and seek to assist wherever possible,” the spokesperson told Breitbart News. “Our effort to ensure safe passage for those who want it does not end on any particular date.”
