Did I hear Milley say that something like… We will do everything we can for as long as we can to get our people out of Afghanistan? ..... That is about as weak a statement as could possibly be made. It basically admits we can’t do very much so don’t blame us.

Abandoning Bagram in the beginning of July should be hammered at every member of Biden’s administration. I bet many of the so-called journalists don’t even know about that. And if they do, will they bring it up when it speaks so bad for the administration? Even if they’re too stupid to figure that you should hang onto your huge air base while you get your people out of Afghanistan, they should care that the Taliban released 5000 prisoners from the prison there.

If you’re referring to this afternoon’s “presser,” I believe that was SECDEF Austin; however, yes, that was my impression. Basically, he said they would continue operations until they ran out of time or resources ...not very encouraging, to say the least!
