Women in Afghanistan should temporarily stay at home until Taliban forces have been trained not to harm them, Taliban leaders said.

Despite the group insisting that it will not reimpose harsh restrictions on women, early signs have not been promising.https://t.co/Nv2HzJO1C9

I asked President Biden what he will do if Americans are still in Afghanistan after the 8/31 deadline.

This gets into the whole "are people really voting for this crap or is the media/political/tech alliance just brainwashing them" thing but... I don't really feel bad for these socialist countries going leftward.nortex97 said:
Canada deserves Trudeau. I don't think America deserves Xiden, as the election was stolen, here.

Sec State Blinken says he knows 500 other Americans in Afghanistan they are trying to get out of there. That's it.
I expect many of those are workers at the State Department that they sent home to work during covid before they abandoned the embassy.
And then he blamed the citizens who haven't gotten out yet.
Just awful.

Yes. But the ANA was still there until they bugged out. Taliban then released all of the prisoners.DirtyMikesBoys said:
Did the US just leave 5,000 people locked in the prison at Bagram when they left? AP mentions it, but doesn't provide details about what happened to it.

" not been promising"? That's an understatement.
Blinken failed to speak up in Cabinet meetings to demand that State Department staff be evacuated before the U.S. military closed Bagram.

He left staff behind.
The U.S. Secretary of State should know exactly how many Americans have requested evacuation - and why they havenโt yet been.

So basically it's just been a crap ton of random Afghans and 4,000 Americans. I'm going to just assume nobody really has any clue as to the actual number (both random Afghans and real Americans). I don't trust anything coming from our government regarding statistics.
Oh no, did they all die?YouBet said:
Good god. That's 50k more Democrat votes.
Well, that's just it. They don't have to make it up. We all watched it real-time complete with multiple, daily lies about what has really happened.ABATTBQ11 said:
If Republicans somehow take the House and Senate in 2022, they should impeach and convict Biden for this. Doesn't really matter what for (thanks Democrats!), but they should. They they should impeach and convict Harris of being a party to it (or something, IDC).
A weakling, just like Trudeau and Biden, trying to suck up to the Taliban - you know her "brothers" would stone her for wearing lipstick.Ciboag96 said:Oh, ok. That'll work. Nice job cabinet minister.

Maybe we're going to have another MIA flag as a result of this to fly with the Vietnam MIA flag.
Oh well, 50k kind of pales in comparison to the hundreds of thousands pouring across the southern border each month. Fingers crossed, but probably overly optimistic, that not all of the 50k are dead weight.YouBet said:

I generally avoid Twitter, but just for kicks I clicked on that tweet to see what people thought of the flippant response from Biden. Judging from many of them, I'd say we are screwed as a country. Here's a typical example. I find it hard to believe this clown still has a 40+ percent approval rating, but apparently there are still a lot of true believers out there.Keegan99 said:I asked President Biden what he will do if Americans are still in Afghanistan after the 8/31 deadline.

Eileen on Twitter: "@PeterAlexander Perhaps @POTUS has very good reasons not to telegraph our EVERY MOVE during a wartime evacuation. Especially to an irresponsible and often inaccurate media that thinks they have all the answers. He took YOUR question @PeterAlexander. That's not "NO questions". #DoBetter" / Twitter
