Psaki declines to 'guarantee' evacuation of Americans stranded in Afghanistan after Aug. 31
Fox News ^ | 38 mins ago | Andrew Mark Miller

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki declined to say whether or not Americans stuck in Afghanistan past the August 31 withdrawal deadline would be evacuated.

"Our focus right now is on doing the work at hand and on the task at hand," Psaki said Tuesday in response to a question as to whether she could offer any "guarantee" that Americans still stuck in Afghanistan after the administration’s withdrawal deadline would still be evacuated. "And that is day by day, getting as many American citizens, as many SIV applicants, as many members of vulnerable population who are eligible to be evacuated, to the airport and out on planes."

It’s what (D)’s do best; abandon Americans both home and abroad.

Americans last, until it comes time for the cattle cars.

Interpreter and family stranded without a way to get to the one airport, let alone safely get out on a plane: Ms. Psaki, will President Biden see that we get out safely?”

Psaki: “Uh, well, I’ll have to circle back to you on that. Maybe at a later point in time.”

That is one cold hearted bitch. I’d quit before saying something like that.

Her boss already said that he would not prioritize evacuation of Americans from hellistan. Never forget that. He is repaying a debt and turning a whole country, plus American tanks, munitions, equipment and armement over to the savages. This is not through incompetence. It is by design.

Pysssaki should be ashamed of herself. I forgot, leftists have no shame.

Eligible to be evacuated ?

Does that mean like George Orwell's book Animal Farm that some animal evacuee candidates or more eligible than other animal evacuees?

Or could it mean some foreign would-be emigres are going to be sold out and others will get a pass to stay alive and get to the US? Creepy.

Or, forget those Afghanis because they would cost our American system too much money to fly over here and put on welfare? Since when did that stop the Dems from border surges?

These are the most vile and repugnant scum Americans. Why do they think that they can solve problems and manage a country?

Other questions that need an answer are: How are we vetting Afgan nationals that are evacuated. Are they getting dropped of somewhere, if so where.

I’m surprised she didn’t say “No evacuation for those not fully-vaccinated.”.

Overcrowded transport plane....

Okay, everybody. On the count of three sing the Black National Anthem while on one knee.

"Our focus right now is on doing the work at hand and on the task at hand," Psaki said Tuesday

Isn't the "task at hand" evacuating all Americans NOW?

Is everyone in this Administration this pathetically clueless??!
