BREAKING: U.S. Not in Position to Evacuate Citizens From Ukraine, State Dept. Warns

Ukraine is about to become Afghanistan 2.0 for Americans hoping to evacuate.

Fox News Channel is reporting that the Biden Administration will not be able to evacuate U.S. citizens from Ukraine.

“Given that the President has said military action by Russia could come at any time. The US government will not be in a position to evacuate US citizens. So US citizens, currently present in Ukraine should plan accordingly.” Arrange commercial flights,” a State Dept. official is quoted as saying on a phone call.

The announcement is reminiscent of the administration’s feckless handling of the evacuation of Afghanistan — when thousands of Americans were trapped behind enemy lines.

“We’ve authorized the departure of some US government employees, but we have ordered the departure of all family members of US government employees at our Embassy in Kiev. The State Department has also elevated our travel advisory for Ukraine to level four,” the State Dept. official said.

Russians will just go around them. Ukraine ain't the Middle East.

Being stranded half way across the world in a hot conflict is 1000 times better than mean tweets any day of the week

Hell, they can fly out of Ukraine on any available flight to any Western European country. They can take a train to get to any bordering countries to the west (e.g., Poland, Romania, Slovakia).

Geez, I sure hope there's time for Milley-Vanilli and the rest of the Joint Clowns of Staff to fly in 80 or 90 billion dollars worth of weaponry to abandon for the Russians...

Seems a bit familiar, doesn't it. Let me see, let me see...oh, yeah, it was only last August. "US Orders Commercial Airlines To Assist Afghan Evacuation".

Six months ago. How time flies...but our people don't...

Reminder of the news from about Friday:

bidAn admin advises Americans in Ukraine to *start leaving as early as Monday*.

I said on another thread, Patriots in control. bidAn said to ****START**** leaving as early as Monday was choreographed to align with something else happening before Monday (like tonight) to embarrass the current resident.

Also if you are an American citizen in Taiwan you should be plotting your course to an airport ASAP. Same goes for South Korea and the Baltics.

Gosh. Golly. You'd think after the Brandon's successful Afghanistan evac they'd be on point.

What? That was a total f up?

Never mind.

Sadly, the ones stuck actually think that.

On a side note. We have assets damn near everywhere. It can’t be that difficult to send some C17s that direction to start getting folks out of there.

But, we are talking about CornPop and Milley, so maybe it is hard.

On another side note, if thousands of gorgeous Ukranian women from Kharkiv start getting on those planes to seek asylum in the US, I got room for 3 or 4.

We’ve been sending in weapons that we can abandon so that Putin can be stronger. I’ve seen this movie before.
