An American hero is finally free after more than two years locked up by the Taliban. George Glezmann, a hardworking Delta Air Lines mechanic from Atlanta, landed on American soil this week thanks to bold leadership from President Trump and his team. This victory shows what happens when America stands strong against foreign threats.
Glezmann spent 800 days in a tiny Taliban prison cell after being grabbed during a 2022 trip to Afghanistan. While the weak Biden administration failed to act, Trump’s negotiators didn’t back down. Trump’s Special Envoy Adam Boehler flew straight into Taliban territory to cut through the red tape and bring our citizen home. That’s real American muscle at work.
The difference between presidents couldn’t be clearer. Biden’s team just slapped a “wrongfully detained” label on Glezmann and left him rotting. But Trump stepped up with a proven strategy – no woke appeasement, just tough talks backed by strength. When asked about his rescue, Glezmann said, “Thank God Trump’s in the White House.” Enough said.
Delta Air Lines stood by George’s family through this nightmare, proving corporate America can still do right. His wife Aleksandra fought like a lioness to keep his case alive. But let’s be honest – it took a conservative leader like Marco Rubio in the State Department to turn prayers into action.
Qatar helped grease the wheels, but this win belongs to American grit. The Taliban only opened their prison doors because they respect Trump’s no-nonsense approach. Previous administrations begged terrorists with apology tours and cash bribes. Trump shows real men don’t negotiate – they set the terms.
Sources say Taliban thugs kept Glezmann in a dirt hole smaller than a bathroom. They starved him and let tumors grow on his face. This is the evil we’re up against. Weak borders and dollar-store diplomacy got us here. Trump’s team didn’t just talk – they delivered.
Glezmann’s homecoming at Joint Base Andrews was pure red, white, and blue glory. Cheering crowds, waving flags, and a bear hug with his wife – this is what winning looks like. Ryan Corbett, another Trump-era rescue, welcomed him back to free soil. Two patriots saved by conservative resolve.
The job’s not done. More Americans still languish overseas under Biden’s watch. But Trump’s proven playbook works – no cave-ins, no bowing to terrorists. As Glezmann said holding his “Free American” sign, freedom only comes when leaders put America first. This Thanksgiving, one Georgia family has everything to be thankful for.
