The US State Dept just estimated that over 6,000 Americans are trapped behind Taliban lines.

But wait......they said ~4,000 just yesterday. Then, revised it to just around 1,000. Now, they say 6,000.

Well, it is starting to look like they don't have a clue.

fricking lying pieces of shite.

He's a loony drama queen.

And yet somehow often more accurate than 99% of the Marxstream Media.

Either way it’s going to be a horrible ending…. Biden has zero clue what to do at this point…. Gee I wonder if we bombed the palace the day after the takeover if all Americans would be out of there????

This is the video from Glenn Beck I watched last night.

Glenn Beck - YouTube

In it they said that the biggest issue all along has been that the State Department has insisted on running the Non-Combatant Evacuation Operation. They said that these type operations have always be run by the military, because they are trained to do it and know what they are doing. The Biden Administration, however, chose to put the State Department on point, and everything has gone downhill from there.

That is also one of the reasons they were so reticent in any missions beyond the airport, because the type engagement it was due to not being run by the military.

Bombing the Palace would be useless because this was an attack by ISIKP which hates the Taliban. We would have just destablized the country even faster than its imploding right now.

No way that could be the case, though, right?

had the same thought, but didn't want to say it out loud.

This is the problem when the President and administration show ZERO hesitation to simply lie. It allows conspiracy theories to thrive.

I wonder how "in the middle" voters that ending up going with Biden feel now. He's on a historic pace to go down for the worst president in US history by a mile.

The Kabul airport attack has nixed hopes of evacuation for the last thousands still hoping to make it out. Am hearing the US military is sealing shut the airport gates. The casualty numbers are growing by the minute. A tragedy piled on a tragedy.


Washington Post Beirut bureau chief. Wow, this is unbelievable.

This was unbelievable 3-4 days ago. Sadly, it’s completely believable today. And tragic.

Report on Twitter says 40 dead and 120 injured.

"Majority" critical.
