The State Department on Tuesday expressed concerns over the makeup of the new interim Afghan government announced by the Taliban, including the lack of female leaders and the past actions of some of those appointed to top posts.

A State Department spokesperson said in a statement shared with The Hill that although the Taliban “has presented this as a caretaker cabinet,” the U.S. “will judge the Taliban by its actions, not words.”

“We have made clear our expectation that the Afghan people deserve an inclusive government,” the spokesperson added.

I can’t believe that wasn’t a Babylon article.

Biden trying to dictate terms to the Taliban after what just went down is so goddamn pathetic.

Well maybe you stupid fricking pussies shouldn’t have surrendered to them then, you have no say in the matter now that you tucked tail and ran away.


They’re still probably in disbelief and laughing at you incompetent stupid fricks

Our government is such a steaming pile of dog shite.

Trump did well to fire the 7th floor at the State Department but he should have burned it down to the basement and rebuilt it around whomever worked in the mail room.

Same with the FBI and CIA who ran a soft coup attempt for which only a dozen of people or so were fired or demoted. The only guy who actually faced a criminal repercussion was Clinesmith who falsified evidence to the FISA court and got, IIRC, probation.

Rather than score well on aptitude tests, people who work at the State Department should be required to attend basic training, strap on some battle rattle, and actually visit these countries they want to write policy for.

State Department spokes-persons (/s) complaining that the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan wants for women's rights and inclusion is embarrassingly cringeworthy.

These people can't really take themselves this seriously to think this was going to go any other way.

At least they’ll now be able to specifically point to toxic masculinity as the cause of the Taliban carrying out or sponsoring terrorist acts and/ or harboring terrorist cells who carry out such despicable acts globally. They’ll probably even be referring to them as white men before long.

The US government can STFU. One of the reason the Taliban were able to so easily reconquer the country was the average Afghan being fed up with our gay pride flags waving in their faces. They'll take the Taliban's strict rule over our "freedom".

They probably are grossly under represented in the alphabet people too. You know the ones who can’t look between their legs and know if they are male or female.

Probably damn few Buddhists in there as well.
