What’s up with transport planes shown on fox dropping countermeasure flares at take off. That is not a good look if they really believe that they have to deploy countermeasures to get away from the runway safely.

What do y’all think the odds are of something big happening somewhere very soon to take the eyes off of Kabul?
What the frick could take our eyes off this? Only thing I can think of is China invading Taiwan or Russia invading Ukraine, and neither of them are ready for that yet.

Have y’all talked to anyone about this? Because seems like most people never looked at it from the get go.

Hopefully Oceanic, because Kamala would be a hell of a character and deserve whatever horrible fate awaited her on the next season of LOST.

That’s it. Time to call on them and then monitor them!!

I’m surprised Harris hasn’t used this to completely distant herself from Biden? By that, I mean come out and publicly destroy him. I guess those that are pulling her strings just won’t allow it.
The reason for that is this moron went on stage and said that she pressured Joe into doing this and this was basically her idea. Both should resign and be thrown out of office for this.

I am not one to be a conspiracy theorist, but i believe that both have been ready for a long time, and this was the push needed to make it happen - what better time is there?

Russia could take Ukraine in a few days if they wanted.

Completely agree…I’m just wondering why she’s sitting back and not taking advantage of this. She could completely destroy him with one press conference. Meanwhile, she’s headed to Vietnam and Joe’s headed to Delaware. It’s like this was planned and she’s just playing her part.

Im stunned at how little people know about this. Was talking to a friend of mine last night. He's the type of guy that shares anti-Biden stuff on Facebook several times a day. He had no idea there were this many Americans over there. He really didnt know much about it at all.
The only thing ive seen people post on FB are images of people falling from planes and the Taliban dancing to Drake. And I could count the number of posts on two hands.

They’re mentally and fiscally ready for it, but we’ll definitely know at least a week in advance when they’re going to do it simply due to satellite photos. Russia hasn’t done anything since this shite show started that makes us think they’re about to invade, but no China is getting their ducks in a row to invade Taiwan as we speak.
Chinese state media has now directly threatened Taiwan saying that “Once” (not if) they invade that the US will not help them and they’ll fall within hours, they’ve made up bullshite excuses saying Taiwan is being aggressive with them and are now conducting military exercises within Taiwanese waters, and they’re fortifying every barge and ferry they can find. China is starting to congregate on their southeast coast, and the weather in Taiwan is always great so they can invade at any time. That said there’s not a big enough military presence at this time, but Taiwan will fall by the end of the year. I think they need two months to get the optimal invasion force going, but they’ve been preparing for this moment for years.
As for Russia invading Ukraine, I think they’re going to let the Chinese go first and see how it works out for them, and if it works out fine, then Russia will invade Ukraine.

Correct. Sadly that is what I fear. I think China taking Taiwan is more likely of the two

Way more likely, but I think Putin will wait for China to make the first move and see how it turns out for them and then act accordingly.

I just saw a video that may have been an Afghan child dying inside the Kabul airport. I'm not posting the link until I see if the video makes rne rounds and it is verified in some way. It was a girl and the father was carrying her.

I’m so glad to tell you that the sick little baby girl, an American citizen, who was stuck outside the Kabul airport, has finally gotten into the airport and is getting medical care. Thank you and God bless everyone who worked on this

BREAKING - Multiple casualties near the entrance to Kabul Airport, #Afghanistan.
Taliban militants are firing and there are multiple civilian casualties being attended too.

Yep, here’s the video: Obviously NSFW
Counted 3 corpses in that clip. No one is getting killed around the airport, Joe? No one? Christ.

Yikes. This was the same call.
So Austin tells House members the Taliban is beating Americans and preventing them from getting to the airport.
And Pelosi basically says “ok great everything sounds good let’s move on.”

Per my prediction, Joe has less than 58 days left in office. Harris is being kept away from this as much as possible so when Joe steps down it will appear as if fresh leadership has arrived.
