Lawmakers and military officials are reportedly outraged after the United States gave the Taliban a list of the names of Americans and Afghan allies to evacuate.

According to a report from Politico on Thursday, American officials in Kabul "gave the Taliban a list of names of American citizens, green card holders and Afghan allies to grant entry into the militant-controlled outer perimeter of the city's airport." The report says this was intended to "expedite" the evacuation efforts but that the move has drawn outrage from military officials and from lawmakers.

I have a bad feeling that we’re about to see the equivalent of the Bataan Death March played out in Afghanistan and just in time for September 11th.

Biden threatens cyber response against Putin and gives him a 'red-line list' of 16 no-hack infrastructure locations - then snaps at press and says is NOT confident the Russian president will change

Treason seems to be a common practice with this administration but no one seems to care.

Biden sounds like Chauncey Gardner (played by Peter Sellers) in “Being There.”

He's the male version of Marie Harf.

I don't even know what to say. It can't be real, can it?

Anybody who colludes with the enemy needs to be stringed up. Enough is enough!!!

With decades of hiring left leaning employees, affirmative action quota personnel, and general all around screw ups, this is no surprise. It could have been honestly expected that someone on the Government would be so pathologically ignorant to pull a stunt like this. The United States fought the Taliban for 20 years. We used conventional bombs, thermobaric bombs, tanks, helicopters, missiles, bullets of various calibers, armed drones, snipers, and direct combat with military personnel. After killing thousands of Taliban, and many of their leaders, we give them a list of people we would like to have their help with in evacuation. The people running our government, and thousands of people working for it need to be removed. But who can do it? The people won’t. What a hellish situation.

The stupidity is astounding.

But Democrats don't care about what's happening in Afghanistan. I see Democrats still complaining about Trump. They're even complaining about the news coverage of Afghanistan. They think we should focus on "important" things like climate change. Seriously, they are a brainwashed cult. They will vote Democrat again and again like robots because that's what they've been programmed to do.

And don’t forget that the most frightening and paralyzing event in our history was on January 6 according to the Democrats.

But, all through 2020, they ignored the firebombing, the looting, the rioting, the destruction, the shootings, the killings - everything done by leftists.

That’s a criminal murderous act. You have to really despise Americans to do that.

Without knowing who “these guys” are who put the list together it’s just another episode of those truly in authority hiding behind Biden so they can operate without consequences or accountability.
