5k+ Americans were killed on our soil by a deliberate act involving Islamic terrorism, something most of us didn't even really know was a thing.


Thanks for the education. Weren't you like 5 when it happened?

I just don't think it's 9/11.


Read what I said again. I didn't say it was either.

Really sort of feels like 9/11 all over again with the emotions and confusion and lack of leadership.

Speaking of President* Biden, has anyone heard from him today? Have they even bothered to wake him up?

Weak dick President beholden to uber liberals is not what you want if you're a Diplomat or Advisor stuck in Kabul. Chances are slim Senile Joe will find his backbone, and act like a man. Remember, Biden was vehemently opposed to the Bin Laden raid. The only person in the Situation Room opposed to the operation.

There's no telling how many of these terrorists are in America already given the open door policy on the border from this incompetent and evil administration.


Thank goodness we are a heavily armed populace

He is a student who went on holiday to Kabul and got stuck there. Not the kind of guy my son would need help from but thanks.

It is crazy to think that a week ago my son and his buddies from 5th group were delivering the trophy for the Music City Grand Prix...

Some of the replies to Biden supporters commenting on that tweet are absolute gold.

Define “INSURRECTION” with a picture:

Insurrection: A rising or rebellion of citizens against their government, usually manifested by acts of violence.

Taliban spokesman tells AP the militants are holding talks aimed at forming an 'open, inclusive Islamic government.'


That's a next level troll right there.

Even as they continue to surround the airport and impede evacuation efforts.
