Kabul Gold Star mom's message to Biden: Wrong to say Afghanistan withdrawal was successful

Marine Lance Corporal Dylan Merola was among the 13 U.S. service members who were killed in the ISIS-K attack at Hamid Karzai International Airport's Abbey Gate during President Joe Biden's botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.

A native of Rancho Cucamonga, California, Merola "was an amazing kid, was always happy, [and] enthusiastic about joining the Marine Corps," according to Cheryl Rex, his mother.

Rex and Merola's grandmother, Clarinda Montsuoka, spoke with Townhall about Merola's life and what has happened to their family since the devastating news of the attack reached them last year.
