How Lame is this Headline...........?🙄 Should Respectfully read - North Ogden Utah Mayor Brent Taylor Killed in Afghanistan........ God Bless those that serve and protect....💔

God bless this man & his family for service & sacrifice. Now I have to ask, why are Natl. Guard men & women being deployed to war zones? I served in Desert Storm & it started then. If, big if, anyone should be on US border should be the guard. Active/reserve should be down range

AudreyGarden All for naught.

What a shame, a true shame There are no reasons for us to still be in Afghanistan. We have accomplished nothing positive but sure have done some negative things. Our involvement make the people hate us even more.

RIP! Prayers going out

the lions of the CALIPHATE in Afghanistan YOU WILL BE CRUSHED O CRUSADERS AND JEWS

😥💔🙏

RIP

no more foreign wars.

Taliban attacks kill at least 21 Afghan security forcesThe overnight attacks, also wounding at least 23 others, took place in northern Sar-e-Pul province, said an official. The latest violence comes as peace initiatives move forward on several fronts. I believe its the US military who killed the Afghan security forces. Just creating a reasonable doubt between Taliban and the Afghan forces, so they can stay in Afghanistan and keep looting from the heroin fields.. $1.5 trillion in a year not so bad.

I’m guessing the Democrats investigation yields a different result. Zinke evidently bought his way out of that investigation Also could find no gambling in Rick's.
