Any Q-tards out there still thinking the cavalry is coming to make things right? This is what the military thinks of you.

President Biden declared to a puzzled country on Tuesday that the U.S. evacuation from Afghanistan was an "extraordinary success,"[a complete cluster f***]

I don't think many on this forum are puzzled.

It is a good thing the classification system is working as designed.

Anything that could damage the credibility of our amazing leaders is Top Secret!

"You guys left American citizens at the gate of the Kabul airport," Yon wrote Tuesday to the commander. "Three empty jets paid for by volunteers were waiting for them. You and I talked on the phone. I told you where they were. Gave you their passport images. And my email and phone number. And you left them behind."

[Michael Yon] added: "Great job saving yourselves. Probably get a lot of medals."

We should start lobbying for cuts in the defense budget. If we are not going to protect Americans, why bother spending money?

We should start telling our children NOT to look to the military for their post high school/college professions. They are like a bad company who does not care about their employees or customers.

And we should be loud about it.

If the military wants medals these days, they have to engage in Gay Sex in front of a rainbow flag and post videos of it on-line.

Whatever the BS narrative is, the reality is the Biden regime is now negotiating how many billions in cash those American hostages are worth.

"It's not completely unlike the way we do it elsewhere around the world," [Pentagon chief spokesclown] Kirby said. "We have Americans that get stranded in countries all the time, and we do everything we can to try to facilitate safe passage."

Kirby, you dipchit, it is not the same as someone stuck in Paris because they lost their passport or a tour group whose return flight was cancelled when their airline went belly up. THEY'RE IN A FREAKING WARZONE, YOU ARSEHOLE.

They will continue to be forgotten because biden declared the mission was successful and the slavish media will promote the same fake narrative.

Let’s all remember the military in our country operates under civilian control.

There is a reason for that. The responsibility for Americans left behind lies with this Administration and not our Military.

They can now enjoy their pensions, knowing that they followed orders like good soldiers.

Unless they get to thinking too much about what constitutes an unlawful order...

“We had them out there waving their passport screaming, ‘I’m American,’” Yon said Tuesday while appearing on the John Solomon Reports podcast.

No problem. Big tech will wipe you out of existence. Your tortured death will not be noted. You never existed.

This is only the disaster at hand. The loss of American credibility and status in the rest of the world is going to last forever.

One man wrote how he spoke to the American mother, and sent photos of her family's passports to Americans inside the airport.

"The Americans recognize it's her and agree but I've been told General Milley won't let them in," the man texted.

The helper group strategized on whether they should send money, how much, and to whom. Ultimately, the family did not get into the airport.

"We get them to the gate, and the U.S. Army completely fails this saying, 'Oh, we can't do it, because the Department of the State tells us we can't do it," Yon told Just the News.

Milley - enemy of American citizens
