If Biden overruled the generals—he owns the defeat in Kabul. He and Harris are to blam for all the deaths that are happening now—or will in the next few days.

Pure B.S. Joe Biden does not have the wherewithal to tie his own shoelaces. This decision either came out of the deep state, Westexec, Obama, or whoever is running what little is left of the United States.
The only decisions left to Slow Joe is what flavor ice cream he wants. (Peroid)

So now we are putting 6,000 back in. Into a nightmare scenario in a captured environment. They would have been safer if we just left them in the first place as Big T was going to do.

So we know Bidung is a complete corpse and of no true cognitive ability and WTF was the laughing hyenas “key role”? We have a clown government that has only been focused on Covid, white “extremists”/Trump supporters, sticking it to a President in exile and woke - tardation.

In contrast to the numerous Trump policies he reversed, he opted to carry out Mr. Trump's deal with the Taliban instead of trying to renegotiate it.

Incorrect. That is a lie. Biden didn't do anything with Trump's deal. He didn't keep pressure on the Taliban. He didn't keep pressure on Ghani. The Trump deal was working. The last 18 months of the Trump Administration there were zero American Deaths. The Taliban stayed put, because they knew they were dead if they did anything. Biden let them run wild. Big difference there.

But Joseph Stolen did not follow any of the working plans.

No doubt this Afghanistan disaster would not be happening if the election weren’t stolen.

After 15 years, just noticed the space after the second underscore... lol.

A TOTALLY DEMENTED person “making decisions about what he thinks is right”.

“I have seen him over and over again make decisions based exactly on what he believes is right,”

I think I found the problem.

Don’t expect the MSM to point out that nuanced difference…

Trump will have to do it himself.

Where are the now 6000 troops "ordered to Afghanistan"?

Without Bagram and with Kabul under fire, I don't imagine they flew in. If they went through Pakistan (spit) we would have heard about it.

It's 700 miles from the beach, so that's out. And Iran is on the other side.

Was this just blather? Are any of them actually in-country? And if so, is there a plan to extract them?

I imagine they are mustered on the East Coast somewhere, possibly with an advance guard in Kuwait.

And if they start killing the Americans left behind when our diplomats bugged out, is there a plan?

Her key role is that she watched him make decisions?

If he’s dumb enough to do that, and he definitely is, the Taliban will used the $$$ to buy more weapons and still murder everyone!

The perfumed princes are wasting no time in spinning their narrative which lays all of the blame on Biden and Harris. If they were overruled on such a momentous policy decision, it was their duty to the nation to resign and draw attention to this fiasco, before it became a full blown crisis.

Now we have US citizens “sheltering in place” until such time as the Taliban locate them, and either use them as hostages (best case scenario) or they inflict horrible deaths on them.

There are some NATO troops at the airport but they’re coming under fire from the peaceful Tallyband advance
