President Joe Biden is not planning to prioritize thousands of American citizens stranded in evacuations from Afghanistan, as the country falls similar to that of the Fall of Saigon in 1975, over Afghan nationals applying for visas to the United States.
....Snip....
As Breitbart News reported, the State Department and Defense Department have said there are “thousands” of Americans left in Afghanistan.
“Once we get more airlift out of Kabul, we’re going to put as many people on those planes as we can,” Kirby told Fox News:
[There will be a mix, not just American citizens, but perhaps some Afghan [Special Immigrant Visa] applicants as well. We’re going to focus on getting people out of the country, then sorting it out at the next stop. It’s not going to be just Americans first, then [Special Immigrant Visa] applicants.]
According to an anonymous source at the Defense Department who spoke to Fox News, the administration is considering fast-tracking some 30,000 Afghan nationals into the U.S., sending them to Fort McCoy in Monroe County, Wisconsin, and Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas, using the Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program.

How is that POS not behind bars? He is intentionally, needlessly risking American citizens' lives.
Of course the Taliban will let it continue. They’ll apply just enough pressure to keep the sense of urgency. Meanwhile, they are rushing every one of their fighters that knows even a smattering of English to Kabul to mix into the refugee stream.
WOW.. I heard about this but the picture is amazing!
I noticed that, too.
Actually, fault lies with GWB. He instigated this folly without a declaration of war.
I wonder how many of those left behind voted for this.

I agree. Plenty of blame to be placed as well on rinos.

I think all the American civilians in Afghanistan voted for Biden.
Day #2—and counting.
What is Boba Fett’s helmet doing around the upper right corner of that pic?
>>>Remember the C-5 Galaxy that crashed when overloaded evacuating South Vietnamese in 75?<<<
I was slated to be on that plane during the airlift (a volunteer), but my orders were changed at the last instant. Kind of like my order to Viet Nam, that were changed to the Philippines . . .
I love the God-directed life!
Stink plane!
Very dumb comment.
I know at least one person stuck there, and several “possibles.”
None would ever think about voting for that POS.
Notice how the State Department evacuated the Embassy personnel (and their friends, pets, luggage, furniture, tea sets, etc.) first then said Americans weren’t a priority.
“Protecting American citizens in a foreign soverignty is now not a priority”
Possibly the Americans over there aren’t in as much danger as the locals.
The following is foaf
off another news/ message board
from on ground report.
Journalists
are being executed outright
Christians are being executed
Missionaries executed
Westerners being executed
Any who worked with or for westerners being executed
Those trying to get to the airport being executed.
Girls 12 and above given as booty to tallies for sex slavery and marriage.
We will not get the majority of those thousands of u.s
citizens evacuated imho.
Pentagon presser knows nothing about our citizens
and when asked referred the questions to state department.
So it’s a good bet those afganies flown
to Wisconsin and Texas are probably mostly talies
to be let loose on our country imho
If they were trying to get as many out as possible
why fly halfway around the globe
instead of somewhere closer
where they could minimize the turn around time
and maximize how many could be evacuated?
No good reason so those evax flights
have suspicious motives imho.
And most of our citizens will be never be heard of or talked about again imho
And our forces on the ground might not make it out of afganistan imho.
Pray for citizens
