'YOU CAN'T SILENCE ME'

Mom of slain Marine Kareem Nikoui censored on Facebook & Instagram after ‘Biden rolled his eyes when she blamed him’

THE mom of a US Marine killed by a suicide bomber in Kabul last week has claimed she was censored on Instagram after she blamed Joe Biden for his death.

Shana Chappell also claimed that the president rolled his eyes when she blamed him for the death of her 20-year-old son, Kareem Nikoui, writing in a post, “You can not silence me.”

Nikoui was among the killed in the bombing on Thursday as they helped the evacuation of .

“Isn’t that cute how the blood of my son is on Biden’s hands and they choose to silence me?” Chappel said in an angered Facebook post on Monday.

“It seems Instagram took it upon themselves to delete my account because I am assuming it was because I gained so many followers over my son’s death due to Biden’s negligence, ignorance and him being a traitor!” she said in another, posting a screengrab of a message from Instagram saying “Your account has been disabled.”

“I’m gonna assume that Facebook is gonna delete me next! Funny how these leftist one-sided pieces of c**p don’t want the truth to come out! Keep in mind I only posted about my heartbreak over my son.”

She claimed that the social media giant had been flagging posts from her account she made months ago and “sending me notifications that if I kept posting stuff like that they would disable my account!”

“Posts from months ago!!!!! But the real reason they disabled my account is because of this post!” Chappell, a Trump supporter, added.

“Instagram you can not silence me!!! You deleted my account because my sons blood is on Biden’s hands!!

“13 Heros blood is on Biden’s hands!”

Facebook, which owns Instagram, said in a statement that Chappell’s account had been accidentally disabled temporarily.

“We express our deepest condolences to Ms. Chappell and her family,” said the statement to The Sun.

“Her tribute to her heroic son does not violate any of our policies. While the post was not removed, her account was incorrectly deleted and we have since restored it.”

Yet Chappel has accused the platform of censorship of conservative voices.

The alleged accidental ban came just after Chappell wrote a lengthy post about meeting with Biden on Sunday when the body of her son and the other American service members were brought home.

BIDEN ON BLAST

“I know my face is etched into your brain! I was able to look you straight in the eyes yesterday and have words with you,” she wrote on Monday.

“After I lay my son to rest you will be seeing me again!”

Chappell claimed she had stood “5 inches from your face and was letting you know I would never get to hug my son again, hear his laugh.”

She blasted Biden for trying to speak to her about his own son Beau, who served in Iraq before his death in 2015 from a brain tumor.

Biden also previously lost his wife and 13-month-old daughter in a car crash in 1972.

“I had to tell you ‘that this isn’t about you so don’t make it about you,'” Chappell continued.

“You then said you just wanted me to know that you know how I feel and I let you know that you don’t know how I feel and you do not have the right to tell me you know how I feel!”

BIDEN ‘LOOKED ANNOYED’

She claimed that Biden then rolled his eyes “like you were annoyed with me.”

“I let you know that the only reason I was talking to you was out of respect for my son … u turned to walk away and I let you know my sons blood was on your hands.”

Chappell alleged that Biden then “threw your hand up behind you as you walked away from me like you were saying ‘ok whatever!'”

She claimed that her son would be alive if “Trump was in his rightful seat.”

“Btw as my son and the rest of our fallen Heros were being taken off the plane yesterday i watched you disrespect us all 5 different times by checking your watch!” she wrote.

“What the f**k was so important that you had to keep ?

“You are nobody special Biden!!! America Hates you!”

GRIEVING FAMILIES ANGERED

have made the same complaint about Biden checking his watch as each casket was removed.

 has been under fire for apparently checking his timepiece after saluting the victims at Sunday’s transfer ceremony at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware.

Mark Schmitz, the dad of Lance Corporal Jared Schmitz, and Darin Hoover – the father of Staff Sergeant Taylor Hoover – claimed the president looked at his watch not just once.

Hoover told : “The checking of his watch, that didn’t happen just once. That happened on every single one that came out of the airplane. It had happened on every single one of them.”

He said Biden would look at his watch after each salute was released.

Schmitz added: “I leaned into my son’s mother’s ear and I said, ‘I swear to God if he checks his watch one more time.'”

He claimed it was the “most disrespectful” thing he had ever seen.

‘SCRIPTED AND SHALLOW’

Schmitz also alleged that Biden talked about his own son Beau rather than Jared in his meeting with the president.

Some relatives of the dead troops were angry with Biden and didn’t want to meet him,  reports.

Roice McCollum said she, her sister, and her father joined Rylee McCollum’s pregnant wife Jiennah on the trip to the ceremony.

All apart from Jiennah didn’t meet with Biden as they “held the president responsible for McCollum’s death.”

Roice said Jiennah left the meeting “disappointed” as she claimed Biden brought up his son Beau in the conversation.

She told the outlet: “It struck the family as a scripted and shallow, a conversation that lasted only a couple of minutes in ‘total disregard to the loss of our Marine.’”

Roice added: “This did not need to happen.”

The White House has not commented on the claims.

Facebook had not yet responded to a request for comment on Chappell’s account.
