Republican Alabama Sen. Tommy Tubervile slammed members of the left-wing " Squad " for being "closed-mouthed" about protecting women in Afghanistan after the Taliban took control of the country. "I have not heard one word from all of these women in ‘The Squad’ in Congress saying anything about protecting the women of Afghanistan. "Women in Afghanistan for the first time ever have been able to go to school, do things that, you know, a normal human being gets to do. In Afghanistan, women don’t get that opportunity, but they have been given that opportunity with our being in that country and starting schools, and all of that. Members of the Squad, such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, have commented about the takeover of Afghanistan, saying that refugees should be welcomed to the U.S."We have a moral obligation to the Afghan people.
