Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley said Sunday in a briefing for Senators that terrorist groups like al Qaeda could reconstitute in Afghanistan sooner than the two years defense officials had previously estimated to Congress because of the recent, rapid Taliban takeover of the country, according to a Senate aide briefed on the comments.

The situation could result in a greater counterterrorism threat, he acknowledged.

Senators were also told there are as many as 60,000 people who could potentially qualify as Special Immigrant Visa holders or applicants, P1 and P2 visa holders, or others like human rights defenders and could need evacuation, two Senate aides said. The White House did not return a request for comment on those numbers.

Forwarded from Marjorie Taylor Greene I just got off White House briefing for Congress concerning Afghanistan.

Joe Biden is a FOOL!

* The military equipment and arms were left on purpose for the Afghan military to supposedly defend themselves. But they have handed it all over with no resistance.

* 5,000 prisoners have been released from the base. Known terrorists.

* Our border is wide open and out of control. These terrorists can easily make their way to the US.

* The Taliban is in full control and ISIS is there as well.

* Trump defeated ISIS and Biden is to blame for their imminent rise.

* Turkey and Pakistan are going to soon move in to “stabilize” Afghanistan.

* Over $1 trillion in spending, over 2,000 Americans lives lost, and over 20,000 injured and maimed over the last 18 years for absolutely nothing.

My love and support goes out to all of our military members and veterans of Afghanistan, and also especially to any family who lost a loved one. God Bless our Gold Star families.
