“There is nothing Chesty Puller could do here.
His nation surrendered.”

Had our nation surrendered during WWII, I believe ole Chesty would have circled what wagons he had left, and fought to the end. Of course he, and those of his era, were true Americans. Thankfully, during that time period, leadership were true Americans also.

There is not a true American in the bunch of our leadership today.

“We did not get everybody out that we wanted to,” he said. “But if we had stayed another 10 days, we wouldn’t have gotten everybody out. It’s a tough situation.”

Now, I would almost never use such language on any public forum, but... WHAT THE F***!!??

By your own statement, you sure as hell could have gotten more out, particularly assuming you had 2 grams of gonads and any support to do so. Certainly even most lefty Americans would support that, so, this is a question of Presidential support, although Biden is cowardly stuck on the date he agreed to with the Taliban: It's actually not "Presidential" OR "American" in any way, shape, or form.

I cannot recall when I was this disgusted and ashamed by, and angry at, our so called "leaders".

Probably they never got through to our Embassy, never got the form “in”, are in deep hiding, etc.

The situation is untenable and their CIC has dementia.

Biden was an arrogant a**ho** long before there was any question of him having dementia. He's lied and embellished throughout his career, and has shown a willingness to lie even when it hurts others (e.g. lying about the driver who crashed into his wife's car - saying he was a drunk driver when he knew he wasn't).

I want to see and hear the family members members of those who were killed or left behind on stage at the Trump rallies.

Like to know how many Afghans they got out and how many Americans left behind. Why wasn’t the military equipment destroyed before leaving as they’ve done in the past? And WHY couldn’t they take the service dogs with them?
This is such a shameful moment in history for the United States of America. Does this Administration not see what the rest of the world sees? Americans running from Afghanistan and the Taliban!!!!!!!!

This is how I will explain what the legacy of a Joe Biden administration can be summed up in a single picture when I'm asked by my grandchildren what it was like to live at that time.

Looking at his watch after each coffin is placed in its hearse is not bumbling Biden, it is deliberate cruelty.

He knoweth that he hath but a short time.

DESTROY THE US
is the motto of the left wing


The stolen election is fully bipartisan in nature. The GOP plan to turn us into North Mexico will destroy this nation just as surely as anything the left does.

So what happened to the 7 bus loads of American women they turned away at the gate? And the service dogs abandoned on the tarmac trapped in their crates? 🤔

We got over 100,000 Afghanis out somehow. Left behind about 9,000 US citizens.

The MIA/POW flag was for the Vietnam War. I wonder what the flag for all the soon to be decapitated or burned Americans left intentionally behind (as of two days ago) in Afghanistan will look like.

Yes according to Centom commander Monday (McKenzie?), we did NOT get everyone out who wanted to.

The family members are probably afraid to speak up for fear of retaliation from the Taliban or Facebook/Twitter. They banned the mom of one of the soldiers killed last night, because she critized Biden for hold he behaved at the transfer ceremony.

We should not allow dual citizenship. The oath that new naturalized citizens take says that they renounce allegiance to all other countries. When did dual citizenship become, not only acceptable, but praised?
