Biden goes silent after his Kabul fiasco costs first American lives: Two 'ISIS' blasts kill up to 60 - including TEN American troops and multiple children - and leaves faltering evacuation plans in tatters

Ten US servicemembers were killed in a series of suicide bomb attacks on Kabul airport on Thursday, the first American lives to be lost since Biden's disastrous evacuation effort began on August 14.

The President has not commented publicly on the deaths and he is not scheduled to make any kind of statement or speech on Thursday.

The deafening silence has angered Republicans who say the blood of those killed is on his hands.

Dozens of people were killed, according to those on the ground including a New York Times reporter who counted 40 dead bodies. The Wall Street Journal said 60 Afghans had died.

FOX host Brett Baier said officials told the network's Pentagon team that ten service members had died.

Anyone else see these reported ISIS terrorists just a convenient diversion? Who has been at war for 20 years with US forces? Who really wants all Afghans that worked with or supported the US in the last 20 years dead?
The Taliban
Who has the airport surrounded and has their 'special forces' manning airport access checkpoints?
The Taliban
What are the reported casualties? U.S. forces and friendly Afghans trying to flee. What has no reported casualties? The supposed Taliban also guarding airport gates.
Think about it

How many more “press conferences” will they have where Biden refuses to take questions? This is third world banana republic nonsense we have in this country now. How could we allow such a thing to happen? Oh yeah I forgot, they stole a presidential election and locked up all the dissidents who protested it, another third world banana republic move.

Biden is preparing his ‘Benghazi response’ which is NO response.

There’s no way they could know which group set off the explosion.

In the US these explosions would cause the media to quickly state "Authorities stated there is absolutely no connection with terrorism involved. They are about to begin their evidence investigation within a few hours. There are no suspects. They are asking for any citizen to come forward with any pertinent information."

Biden has to bomb something now.

Carpet-bomb Tehran? A drone strike on a Taliban leader? Hard to be “tough” when the Tolly-Bon have 1500 Americans by the throat.

This is what happens when you put criminal Democrats in charge.

They get too busy stealing and don’t even try to govern.

I am surprised that more people aren’t turning back to God at this point. Repentence is sorely needed.

It’s actually been much, much longer than a couple weeks. Try a year, or a year and a half.

Brett Baier ambushing President Trump....
Yes, he is a little weasel. Thinks he is so clever and so smart. He isn’t.

His mother probably thinks he is, though. Good old mom.
