Biden refuses to take questions on Afghans clinging to planes after speech on crisis Biden did not acknowledge reporters who asked him about the crisis unfolding in Afghanistan www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/biden-afghanistan-speech-military-plane-b1903757.htmlWTF?! I was busy working when Biden was giving his national address on Monday (regarding the crisis in Afganistan) and I wasn't aware that this POS didn't even take ANY questions from reporters, just turned his back and left the stage. SMH what a worthless coward. How can anyone defend this bullshit??

They’re trolling Biden and it’s hilarious. The whole world is laughing at him and the White House has fractured into Team Joe vs Team Kamala. The passive aggressive shade war going on in the White House is real

Clarrisa Ward (CNN) and Ian Pannell (ABC) are doing amazing reports from Afghanistan .......we make fun of the US media often (or I do anyway) but they have been noticeably great ......

Aug 30 (Reuters) - The United States completed the withdrawal of its forces from Afghanistan on Monday, ending 20 years of war that culminated in the militant Taliban's return to power. Washington and its NATO allies were forced into a hasty exit. Following a chaotic evacuation, they leave behind thousands of Afghans who helped Western countries and might have qualified for evacuation. Celebratory gunfire rang out in Kabul after completion of the U.S. pullout that ended America's longest war. www.reuters.com/world/india/rockets-fired-kabul-airport-us-troops-race-complete-evacuation-2021-08-30/

Totally reckless and irresponsible jfc. And I've read arguments downplaying this clusterfuck with some saying "those stupid Taliban fighters won't know how to use our high tech military equipment so we shouldn't worry" smh Little do these clueless Biden supporting morons know, the Taliban can sell ANY of that shit on the black market and to surrounding countries that have bad intentions and knowledge of how to use U.S. military equipment .

UGH - remember when we said we killed 2 terrorists in drone strikes over the weekend........now it's being reported we possibly killed an innocent man (you can never tell though) and up to 10 civilians including children........ KABUL - A U.S. drone strike targeting the Islamic State killed 10 civilians in Kabul, including several small children, family members told The Washington Post on Monday.
The dead were all from a single extended family and were getting out of a car in their driveway when the strike hit a nearby vehicle, said Abdul Matin Azizi, a neighbor who saw the attack. Azizi, 20, said the explosion occurred as the family returned home Sunday afternoon.www.adn.com/nation-world/2021/08/30/10-civilians-killed-in-us-drone-strike-against-isis-in-kabul-family-says/

Well to be more clear - or as I like to call it - " Brit Hume specific" ( )- we don't know what we left because we are clueless, we don't really know how many Americans are left behind either, how many are going to be murdered either..........The chart being debunked is appreciated, yes - but the general point is still valid.........both things can be true........... * There has been no accounting of how much military equipment was left in Afghanistan after U.S. troops withdrew and the Taliban resumed control of the country.* One expert says aircraft and other military equipment are likely worth less than $10 billion. www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/aug/20/viral-image/no-proof-biden-left-taliban-80b-weapons-or-he-want/

That’s more relevant to me than the cost of the equipment.

Hopefully this is false.......it's a nightmare if it's true.......also the State Department throwing shade at The White House (last paragraph) in that response - I guess "No Comment" would have been too diplomatic Rep. Michael McCaul said the planes had been held for days at the Mazar-i-Sharif airport in northern Afghanistan.
"We know the reason why is because the Taliban want something in exchange," he told Fox News.
Representatives for the White House did not immediately return Insider's request for clarification on McCaul's claim Sunday.
"We understand the concern that many people are feeling as they try to facilitate further charter and other passage out of Afghanistan. However, we do not have personnel on the ground, we do not have air assets in the country, we do not control the airspace - whether over Afghanistan or elsewhere in the region," a spokesperson for the US State Department told Insider. news.yahoo.com/gop-rep-mccaul-says-6-143224032.html

Top generals told lawmakers under oath on Tuesday that they advised President Joe Biden early this year to keep several thousand troops in Afghanistan — directly contradicting the president’s comments in August that no one warned him not to withdraw troops from the country.The remarkable testimony pits top military brass against the commander-in-chief as the Biden administration continues to face tough questions about what critics are calling a botched withdrawal that directly led to the deaths of 13 American service members, scenes of chaos at the Kabul airport, and the abandonment of American citizens and at-risk Afghans in the war-torn country. www.politico.com/news/2021/09/28/top-generals-afghanistan-withdrawal-congress-hearing-514491
