There is always a chance and hopefully our people in the region are working their asses off the secure their transport to the airport, but nothing is guaranteed and nothing has been laid out as a plan yet

The official answer from the Biden administration is that they don't know.

bullshite. I would have wanted Trump removed and I feel the same about Biden. Abandoning people is wrong regardless of political party.

Same. I was never a fan of Trump but gave credit where due (getting our troops home, tough on China, building a better economy).

But Joe Biden is the biggest shite head I've ever seen . Just last week we were talking about him pinching the nipple of a little girl and now we're talking about OH MY GOD IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW...

and then when asked about American citizens outside of the airport he then confirms that they’ll be protected ONCE THEY GET TO THE AIRPORT. Not giving American citizens any guidance on how to get to the airport

This is very confusing. We’re beefing up airport security, but don’t have a plan to get the thousands to the airport safely? Not to mention, just yesterday they were told to shelter in place.

What a shite show, can’t imagine what they feel like. Damn near completely abandoned and left for dead by the president/government.

US Embassy in Kabul tells Americans to shelter in place; Afghan president flees the country

Reporter: "Do you have a plan for the equipment that has fallen into the hands of the Taliban?"

Sullivan: "We don't have a complete view of where every asset is at. We don't have a sense that the Taliban will be handing over US equipment at the airport"
This is completely MIND BLOWING to me. We can't track our own military assets worth billions? cool.

Holy shite. We just dumped a bunch of unknown afghans, mostly fighting aged males, into our country? I assume there was little to no vetting.

I guess we'll have to deal with that later.

Didn’t you hear? They weren’t ours, they were the ANA’s. Yes we were using them and maintaining them and operating them but they weren’t ours.
