Biden admin depends on Taliban to give Americans 'safe passage' 6 weeks after Biden said he doesn't trust them

The White House is depending on the Taliban to give evacuating Americans "safe passage" to the Kabul airport just six weeks after President Biden said that he doesn't trust the terrorist organization.

National security adviser Jake Sullivan joined White House press secretary Jen Psaki at the podium for a press conference on Tuesday, where they took questions about the fallout from the troops withdrawal...

...Sullivan told reporters that the administration expects the Taliban "will have to be watched and observed over time" on whether it is "prepared to meet their obligations to the basic human rights and human dignity of people, to the safe passage of people, to the airport."

"The Taliban have informed us that they are prepared to provide the safe passage of civilians to the airport, and we intend to hold them to that commitment," Sullivan also said during the briefing.//.

On the ‘have-to-fire’ list, Sullivan would be either number one or number two. How Biden retains this guy is a total mystery.

In a criminal organisation like the Biden fake presidency, loyalty (willingness to defend The Lie) is all that matters.

They don’t hire on merit.

So, in one ill-considered move Biden negates two decades of effort.

You better believe obama is involved in all this. Going just as he planned it. His main motivation is always to weaken the US in any way possible.
His stink is all over it.

Good luck with that strategy. I’m expecting this to turn into a slow rolling g nightmare.
