During a Tuesday visit to Manville (N.J.) to assess the damage caused by Hurricane Ida, President Biden was questioned about the U.S. withdrawal.
My best friend was killed in Afghanistan in 2011. It was for what? A heckler shouts in a Twitter video by Zach Purser Brown, Washington Post reporter. Biden was visiting damage in Manville, which had suffered flooding from Hurricane Ida remnants at the time.

The footage did not show the heckler. He continued shouting that Biden had left Americans behind. According to a White House pool report, the heckler was standing in his yard alongside his family.
The heckler shouted, "He will leave you behind, you guys. Protect him." After being killed in Afghanistan, a woman joined the chorus and yelled Leave no Americans Behind!
The heckler shouted, "For what?"
As the Biden motorcade passed through the state, supporters of Trump stood by the sidelines of the roads.
More than 40 people were killed in storms that battered the northeast last week, with torrential rains or tornadoes. 13 of these people were in New York City.
During remarks to Manville reporters, the president warned about the dangers of climate changes.
After surveying storm damage in NJ, Biden said that climate change is now a reality and that we are living it. We don't have time. Now, we are seeing the future of our country in real-time.

Biden stated that extreme weather is affecting every part of the country. Now, we are seeing in real-time what the country will look like. We can't reverse the course of events, but we can stop it from getting worse.
