These people turn their backs on their “friends”. What makes anyone think they give a hoot about Americans over seas?

I wonder how the old “women and children first” is going to work here? Anyone who claims to be a woman IS one, according to our great woke society. That’s going to create create quite a backlog to getting out. That’s one thing the Taliban will be be useful for: identifying women from men. But wait, just how many men are going to want to identify as women. Sharia law and all. 🍿

“SEC AUSTIN: “We Don’t Have The Capability To Go Out And Collect Large Numbers Of People.”

The troops are all in diversity training and that takes precedence.

“We don’t have the capability to go out and collect large numbers of people.”

In a few months, people will look back to this quote when Austin’s military will indeed round up large numbers of people, right here in America. Because Covid.

It would be good to know a little bit about what the article is about other than read here.

I thought this was going to be about SEC football and the University of Texas Longhorns.

CREATE that availability, Dummy.

If they were illegals surging across the Texas border Biden would order swift transportation and Dem voting registration and welfare cards for tens of thousands. But people in a No Man's Land to cross to a dangerous airport entrance? Too bad, folks.

Each one of these left behind Americans has loved ones, friends, neighbors and coworkers in America. That is is LOT of local news stories.

“We at WXYT have an exclusive interview with the mother of a 20 year old IT professional left behind and begging for the Biden Administration to get him and his five friends out to safety. They hear gunfire every night. She doesn’t know if she will ever see him again.”

“”We don’t have the capability to go out and collect large numbers of people.”

Doesn’t bode well for protection of Taiwan.

Why were there so many Americans there anyway?
I’ve heard some estimates up to 40K people. Why?
Were they all employed by that oversized Embassy we couldn’t even defend?

Problem is Biden associates the word Ranger with Jellystone Park.

This stupid EOE BLM Obama clown was too busy
Removing white men from the military .
This Black leftists intentionally left all those weapons
so Iran could wipe out Israel .
Then ship over millions of Muslims to kill off our country .

This was planned by the Iran triplets VJ Barry and Susan Rice .
