Mark Frerichs, an Illinoisan and Veteran, was abducted in Kabul earlier this year. Donald Trump's hasty decision to withdraw troops from Afghanistan could extinguish any hope that the Frerichs family will ever see their loved one again.

This cannot happen.

We don't leave Americans behind.

@SenatorDurbin and I are urging @realDonaldTrump, @DeptofDefense and @SecPompeo to make sure that any negotiated settlement in Afghanistan does not overlook the need to first recover all American hostages like Mark.

2. My Senators

Now, I'd like them both on the weekend shows saying "Trump want our troops to die! He doesn't care about our military folks at all. Cares totally about what Russia wants."
No niceties, no implications.
Just say it bluntly

3. Powerful rebuke.

4. Mike Frerichs, Democrat,

is our Illinois state treasurer. I wonder if he is related to this Mark Frerichs.

Before the pandemic, I used to see Treasurer Frerichs at all sorts of Democratic events, large and small. I wondered if he was seeking an office higher than the one he occupies, or if he just wanted to get to know the regulars.

I hope this hostage can be released, no matter who he is.
