“We can’t leave these people,” the official, now openly emotional, “This is awful,” referring to efforts on safely removing 88,000 Afghan SIVs, including interpreters. The official worried the situation could further deteriorate. “We now have the biggest targets on our backs.”
#Afghanistan Now that the Taliban has seized control of Afghanistan, @CBS_Herridge reports that there is deep concern about a “speedy reestablishment of a safe haven” in Afghanistan for extremist groups.
The RINO Surrender Brigade.
Ron Paul has been a lone fighter, on most things, lately.
Where are the other Pubbie Senators? Hidin with XiDen?
And, the House Reps are scant, as well, except for a few....like MTG.
After this disaster, they should be holding pressers, throughout the day. We know the idiot Dems would be.
BREAKING NEWS Police cars revolving light Several US intelligence sources tell ABC that they correctly predicted the rapid Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, but Biden administration disregarded their reports
Sounds like the one I got last week!
I wrote ‘MAGA’ in fat red marker on each side.
I figured PDJT was worth the 55 cents. 😉
Oh that’s better, I’ll do the same
Wow. Worse than Saigon, that’s saying something. And Benghazi. Not something the military seems willing to give Biden cover over, that’s good at least.
Prayers for everyone over there, and the animals and children especially
Awww....prayers up for those who loved Ozone 🐾
He looks like one sweet pup 💞

Exactly! The GOP lets every real crisis fizzle, since they really are liberals.
Except Cruz and Rand, God Bless them and their families.

JOINT Chiefs of Staff chair Mark Milley warned of an increased threat of terror attacks on US soil after Afghanistan fell to the Taliban on Sunday, according to a new report.
Milley told a bipartisan group of Senators on a call earlier today that the Islamist outfit captured the country far quicker than President Joe Biden and other top military leaders had anticipated,
Awwww, prayers for Ozone, who has joined my Corduroy at the Rainbow Bridge. He sure is cute, with the black and white markings.
Mail!
Silly Milley needs to step down ... he’s admitting that he/our *top* military leaders were caught flat footed.
So sorry to hear of the passing of your grand-doggie, Ozone.
Wish we could keep them for a much longer time but they are forever in our hearts.
Yeah he is pretty much incriminating himself. And also Biden, which is hilarious. But everybody knows Biden didn’t think anything, But it’s nice of him to give him the benefit of the doubt :-)
True!
He should also resign for saying his dear leader, XiDen, was caught flat footed/incompetent.....insubordination!
Afghan Americans Protest at White House: ‘They’re Killing All My People’
Aug 16, 2021
Newsmax: Many Afghan Americans protested outside the White House Sunday in support of Afghan civilians following the dramatic fall of the Afghan national government to the Taliban, Fox News reports.
“My family is there. All my people is there. They’re killing all my people,” wept one woman.
Many Afghan civilians crowded the Afghanistan international airport in Kabul in an apparent attempt to flee the country, some so desperate to escape that they held onto an American jet as it took off and plunged to death in an incident that killed at least seven people.
“I have immediate family that’s living in Afghanistan right now. They shut down the airport nobody can fly out – they’re stuck there,” one woman told Fox News.
President Joe Biden defended his decision to withdraw U.S. troops from the country despite the Taliban’s swift takeover, saying the U.S. mission was “never supposed to be about nation-building.”
But, he said, the Taliban’s rapid advance, “did unfold more quickly than we anticipated,” he said.
“We’re all incredibly disappointed in President Biden and the administration for pulling out all the troops from Afghanistan literally overnight,” one woman explained to Fox News.
“That was not the only way out,” another protester said.
“It’s all gone back. I feel like it was for nothing,” another woman told Fox News.
Another man agreed: “it’s back to where it was in 1994.”
“Our girls. The girls who are under 20 don’t know what life is like under Taliban. Their lives are all destroyed. They’re all destroyed,” two women who have family in Afghanistan told Fox News.

FREAKIEST thing I’ve seen all day....not for the squeamish.....(NO, not another Biden vid)....

A Utah family was enjoying a child’s birthday party at a local reptile facility when things started to get dicey fast. An alligator started getting aggressive with its handler, and snapped onto her gloved hand. The animal trainer climbed into the alligator cage to get better leverage, but the beast whipped her around, pulling her underwater. The children looked on from outside the enclosure in shock, before their parents whisked them away. Then, a brave bystander leaps in to come to the rescue.
I think I’ll pass, don’t need nightmares about getting drowned/eaten by an alligator.😁
