White House press secretary Jen Psaki grew visibly annoyed during the press briefing Monday when she was asked whether President Biden was aware that most of the criticism against the Afghanistan withdrawal was about Americans being "stranded" in Kabul.
"Does the president have a sense that most of the criticism is not of leaving Afghanistan? It's the way that he has ordered it to happen by pulling the troops before getting these Americans who are now stranded. Does he have a sense of that?" Fox News' White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked.
Psaki said it was "irresponsible" to say that Americans are stranded in Afghanistan. "I think it's irresponsible to say Americans are stranded. They are not. We are committed to bringing Americans who want to come home, home."
Doocy followed up and asked whether "there are no Americans stranded" is the official White House position.
"I'm just calling you out for saying we are stranding Americans in Afghanistan when we have been very clear that we are not leaving Americans who want to return home," Psaki said. "We are going to bring them home and I think that's important for the American public to hear and understand."
Doocy later asked Psaki whether Americans being beaten up by the Taliban and Afghans passing babies over barbed-wire fences was what Biden meant when he said, "America is back."

She on the same drugs as Biden?
Fast talker but dull witted. In other words a typical democrat operative.

Freedom is Slavery

How dare you! They are not stranded. They were abandoned. Get it straight!
The Americans who are “not stranded” need to watch this video from the 1950s on how to defend themselves from the Taliban.

Telling the truth is irresponsible? Or just inconvenient?
Possibly abandoned on purpose.
A large scale Benghazi.

Another example of the truth being irrelevant to the Left. They never concede an inch.
They just define words to suit the moment. Nobody is stranded. They can’t be stranded, ever. Nobody left there wanted to leave, hence not stranded.
The facts being contrary is of no matter.
If the majority of the Americans are members of the state department they are no doubt happy to take one for the team.
That assertion will not last long, IMHO.
That Psaki chit is truly deplorable.
She does hate Peter Doosey.
Media finally doing its job. Until they get a call from the White House warning them about what will happen if they don’t fall into line.
To keep it clean as I can, I’ll just say Psaki is just as big a useless “C” as Camel toe Harris is.
Well, she didn’t say they’d bring them back alive./s
With this admin that translates to, "Dead or alive".
"Americans that want to return home."
What does that even mean?
