Former President George W. Bush on Monday urged President Joe Biden to “cut the red tape” and allow for the swift evacuation of Afghan refugees following the Taliban’s takeover of the country.
Responding to the fall of Afghanistan’s US-backed government, Bush said the Afghans “at the greatest risk are the same ones who have been on the forefront of progress inside their nation.”
The costly US-led war in Afghanistan began just shy of 20 years ago after the 9/11 attack while Bush was president.
Bush, in his Monday statement, noted Biden has promised to evacuate the Afghans who assisted Americans and its NATO allies over the past two decades.
“The United States government has the legal authority to cut the red tape for refugees during urgent humanitarian crises. And we have the responsibility and the resources to secure safe passage for them now, without bureaucratic delay,” he said in his statement.

Second generation immigrants and those who came here at a very young age are the highest risk of radicalization. Boston bomber, DC snipers, pulse shooter, the Boulder grocery store are all examples.
Stay out he bushes jesse cried, he was right they are a despicable clan
I am reminded once again that the democrats were right when they said GWB was stupid.
The Biden administration doesn’t have that authority. Keep them out of here. The US has enough people.
Poor Texas. Dumping ground for the country.
Any news from Cuba?
Texas always gets the worst of foreign countries. So unfair and purposely done.
Felling guilty, are we?
Colonize the Guantanamo side of the Island and have the refugees start their own country.
Hey Bush, Thank you for spending $$$ on an UNWINNABLE WAR, you F*going moron!!! We could have use the $$$ on other things - like the border and reducing taxes ..

STFU dub’ya
Send ‘em to Cheney’s house.
Someone throw a shoe at him.
The guy who allowed 9/11 to happen on his watch.
That was funny. Bush actually dodged it rather well.
The height of his Presidency.
I think Pakistan is pro-Taliban.
I’m not sure where they should go but western nations are under no obligation to take in throngs of Muslim refugees and we certainly shouldn’t unless we somehow think they are future GOP voters, lol.
What they should do is pick up guns and stay but....
“Hello, fellow kids!”
There are thousands of Americans still in Afghanistan.
Has George mention helping them FIRST?!
I’ve got an idea... Next time one of our ego-maniacal Presidents decides to ‘go save the heathens’ ON OUR DIME... we should explain that IF our military offers heathens in ‘incentive of a lifetime’ - free citizenship in the US - that they might not fight as hard as they would if the ‘prize’ was simply losing.
It’s kind of as stupid as asking Afghans to work with us and offering the a million dollars if we fail.
