President Biden on Monday mourned the loss of two Navy SEALs who are presumed dead after they went missing off the coast of Somalia earlier this month during a special covert mission to seize Iranian missile parts bound for Yemen.

Biden said in a statement that the presumed deaths of the two SEALs were a “profound loss for our country.”

“These SEALs represented the very best of our country, pledging their lives to protect their fellow Americans,” Biden said. “Our hearts go out to the family members, loved ones, friends, and shipmates who are grieving for these two brave Americans

He is full of crap. He has no idea what is going on.

[wally_bert]

Didn’t he blow the ID of some SEAL team in Afghanistan years ago getting them killed?

A SEAL to him is something that barks for fish.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Did he bring up his dead son Beau

[Reverend Wright]

This moron sent these guys to their deaths on a high risk night mission, because he is too cowardly to just have a daylight naval intercept.

[McGavin999]

I keep praying they managed to get to land and escape into safe territory. They are SEALs and tough as nails, so until there is proof they are dead I will continue to pray.

[LittleBillyInfidel]

Likely, in his mind, he’s mourning two trained mammals conscripted to the military from Sea World.

[bray]

Did he check his watch while his flunky wrote it?

[Right Brother]

He probably thinks that a couple of seals at the DC zoo have died.

[Macho MAGA Man]

Yes, SEAL Team 6. He blabbed his mouth during a presser that it was the Team that got Bin Laden. By doing that the Taliban in Afghanistan made arrangements to ambush and shoot their helicopter down. They did just that.

[MountainWalker]

One of the most enduring legacies of Obama/Biden is their uncanny ability to get SEALs needlessly killed.

[wally_bert]

Probably got a few laughs about in private.

Zero guilt or shame too in his case.

[wally_bert]

He’ll spout some gibberish about him or Beau considering becoming SEALs sooner or later.

Up there with his truck driving days.

[ought-six]

“Did he bring up his dead son Beau.”

If he hasn’t yet, he’ll get around to it.

[Chgogal]

Biden, The Demented Dimwit, is a phony. His policies led to this.

[mass55th]

“We lost our son, Navy SEAL Beau to a diving accident off the coast of Somalia.”

[Rappini]

Yeah just like the 13 Soldiers that came back from Astan in boxes because of his S—tty ROI.

[nwrep]

He said his son was a SEAL who died in the Arabian Sea while fighting Lawrence of Arabia.

[Gaffer]

I’m surprised he didn’t take the opportunity to mourn for his dead son and call HIM a SEAL, too.

[PGR88]

In the movies, SEALS and spec ops guys are tracked in real time on satellite, infra-red, and position monitoring, and I assume they have more capabilities than even Hollywood gives them

They also are supposed to be really good at operating in the ocean.

So the story that they simply fell in the ocean and “disappeared” seems to me like bullsh**
