“What the frick was I thinking? I could have just done what that bitch Dianne Feinstein did and just sat on my arse in luxury for 50 years, but you just wanted to be President that much, didn’t you Kamala? What the frick were you thinking? Maybe if my poison attempt went right back in April that we wouldn’t be here, but I’m going to have to inherit this shite sometime next week? What in the actual frick were you thinking? You called him a white supremacist on stage, and he still chose me as VP?! Sounded nice at the time, but I am so fricked! I am so completely and totally frickED!”

Not if the Taliban doesn't let us. Maybe they gave Brits permission? Pure speculation, tho.
I don't think that's the issue. There were reports today that things got heated between our guys on the ground and the SAS. Our folks didn't want them going out and rescuing their folks for some reason.

What commercial pilot wants to fly into that war zone???
You'd probably be surprised. Alot of those guys are retired military.

Did anyone post this? Apparently, Heavy gunfire around the Airport?
Saw some tweets about. I mentioned it, but didn't post the tweets I saw. Haven't seen much since.

I really have no idea what has me obsessed over it like I have been. Hell, I'd usually be in the hurricane thread. Something about this whole shitshow just has me almost captivated. I don't know.

As a country, we’ve reached “The View from Halfway Down”
quote:
The weak breeze whispers nothing
The water screams sublime
His feet shift, teeter-totter
Deep breath, stand back, it’s time
Toes untouch the overpass
Soon he’s water bound
Eyes locked shut but peek to see
The view from halfway down
A little wind, a summer sun
A river rich and regal
A flood of fond endorphins
Brings a calm that knows no equal
You’re flying now
You see things much more clear
Than from the ground
It’s all okay, or it would be
Were you not now halfway down
Thrash to break from gravity
What now could slow the drop
All I’d give for toes to touch
The safety back at top
But this is it, the deed is done
Silence drowns the sound
Before I leaped I should’ve seen
The view from halfway down
I really should’ve thought about
The view from halfway down
I wish I could’ve known about
The view from halfway down

So our boots on the ground were crossed up about SAS going after their own people? I dont believe that.

Tells them we want to leave. We are not leaving until all citizens and d Afghans we want to take are accounted for whether that takes 2 weeks or 2 months.
We are going out to pick them up. Taliban better stand down and stand aside. Any Americans die in the process we are bringing 100,000 troops back and will stay another 20 years and kill every taliban alive.
It’s their choice let us get our people out and leave or we will go back to war and stay another 20.
You can’t make a threat when everyone knows you are a coward.
It’s like those weak parents who let their kid get away with everything for 16 years and then make a big thread about being home for curfew “or else”.
The kid laughs and walks out because he knows the parents have no guts or will to attack.

Maybe not the ones who would actually be going out, but people higher up. It was reported by multiple outlets today.
