How about we talk about the Americans still left behind.

[@jimp9241]

Them too! This was a major cluster for the US. Handing over everything to them? Never should have happened! They should have taken everything, or destroyed it.

[@marthavineyards7525]

With the state of the art surveillance equipment along with the names of Americans and Afghanis who worked with US troops were given to the Taliban...I seriously doubt any are alive. Blinken , the DOD and Biden Admin refused to allow any rescue missions even though there were aircraft ready to go..they were grounded

[@beverlyballard8783]

Why....is WHY WHY WHY IS MAYORKIS NOT IN PRISON?

[@kathyblah]

He is awesome

[@beaubiden9293]

Can you imagine if this happened under Trump?

[@GODSPEAKS898]

Nothing would happen, just like nothing happened to him “yet” regarding the insurrection. This is one man (if you can call him one) who should have been in prison a long time ago.

[@johncrocker4209]

​@Sistah Jan Anderson But there would at least be an effort to bring him to justice and probably another impeachment. There's no such effort going after the Biden administration and most of the msm says there's nothing there no matter how much evidence comes up.

[@NickDrinksWater]

i cant believe this admin is that incompetent. i feel like they know what they are doing, they're doing it on purpose

[@jujupants2486]

Think it was Carl Jung that said something like this; If you can't figure out why someone is doing a thing, then look at the outcome and infer the motivation. If it makes no sense why this administration does what it does, then look at the outcome. Perhaps that is what they were aiming for after all. They are totally doing this knowingly. Why would Biden still hobble his dementia pedophile ass up there and tell us we can only have 8 rounds in a magazine AFTER he previously traded a weapons dealer called "The Merchant of Death" for a black lesbian America hating WNBA "star"?

[@rachelbaziak4159]

Why would that be a good idea under any circumstances? I'll take my chances on the ground thank you. Trump had his chance to do it (like he promised) but he didnt so just give it up.

[@prall0915]

I'm definitely pissed about how Biden handled the withdrawal. And l'm a Democrat. The operation was a complete disaster. I feel really bad for the Afghanistans left behind that helped us over the years. Our veterans who relied on those informates have a right to be angry. They befriended many of those men. Promises were made.

Promises from politicians are meaningless

[@prall0915]

[@cottonp20]

I AM DEFINITELY NOT A DEM,BUT I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN CITIZEN SHOULD BE APPALLED BY THE ACTIONS AND THE TOTAL INSENSITIVITY OF BIDUMB AND HIS ADMINISTRATION AND THE WORST POSSIBLE EXAMPLE OF HOW TO WITHDRAW FROM A WAR ZONE,AND THE FACT THAT THEY LEFT SO MANY PEOPLE IN HARMS WAY,WHEN IT HAS BEEN A LONG STANDING TRADITION THAT WE NEVER LEAVE A PERSON IN HARMS WAY! BUT IT PROVES THAT BIDUMB HAS ABSOLUTELY NO COMPASSION OR RESOLVE TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND PROPER FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS AND THOSE THAT HELPED US IN THE WAR EFFORTS! AND THE FACT THAT HE LEFT BILLIONS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF ARMAMENTS TO THE ENEMY,WHEN IT IS DEFINITELY A LONG STANDING TRADITION TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL WEAPONRY BE DESTROYED IF IT WERE DEFINITELY NOT GOING TO REMOVED! HE IN EFFECT IS COMPLICIT IN HELPING THE ENEMY TO BE ABLE TO CONTINUE DOING WHAT WE WENT THERE TO PREVENT,IN EFFECT AIDING THE ENEMY TO MAKE LIFE WORSE FOR THE VERY PEOPLE WE WENT THERE TO HELP! BIDUMBS ACTIONS IN THE WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TREASONOUS ACTS AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WHO HE WILLFULLY LEFT BEHIND! AND HE SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH THE DEATHS OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS THAT HE HAS CONDEMNED TO DEATH!

Obviously there is a misunderstanding somewhere and this is completely out of control

Congressman Clay Higgins, clear your desk and go. Thank you for your service.

[@beaubiden9293]

Let’s go Brandon!!! I, agree!

[@marthavineyards7525]

My take was troops there already allowed the bomber to enter where our 30 troops and 200 Fleeing Afghanis were. They did nothing to stop him. They knew he was wearing a bomb vest.

[@Northman.56]

Very moving words.
