The publication is reproduced in full below:

PRESIDENT EMBOLDENED TALIBAN

(Mr. CAWTHORN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute.)

Mr. CAWTHORN. Madam Speaker, the Taliban is emboldened today. They have found a new reason to cry ``death to America.'' That reason is Joe Biden.

His foreign policy is not America first; it is Taliban first.

Mr. President, listen carefully, and I will say it slowly just for you: No man left behind. That is leadership.

Here is my pledge to the Taliban: You may chant ``death to America'' today, but mark my words, the levers of power will be in strong hands soon. If you harm an American, we will rain down vengeance upon you with wrath and fury that will put the fires of hell to shame.

Psalm 91 promises us that God will be our refuge and our fortress. But you do not worship my God or heed His promises. So when we come for you, there will be no refuge, no cave, and no crevasse you can crawl into that will save you from our wrath.

To those who hate America and all we stand for, read my lips: I am young, and I have a long memory. When power in Washington inevitably shifts, we will not forget you because we are in the business of killing terrorists. And pretty soon, business will be booming.

The SPEAKER pro tempore (Ms. Sewell). Members are reminded to refrain from engaging in personalities toward the President, and Members are also reminded to address their remarks to the Chair, not to a perceived viewing audience.
