  1. because civilians have classified intel and are qualified to provide their input about military operations on a news broadcast or any platform. Good job

    1. Joe Biden gets it wrong every time on foreign policy, and many other issues. Everyone knew he couldn’t handle the pressure. Even Obama’s Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates, said as much. He ran out of Afghanistan instead of following the plan our Administration left for him—a plan that protected our people and our property, and ensured the Taliban would never dream of taking our Embassy or providing a base for new attacks against America. The withdrawal would be guided by facts on the ground.
       
      After I took out ISIS, I established a credible deterrent. That deterrent is now gone. The Taliban no longer has fear or respect for America, or America’s power. What a disgrace it will be when the Taliban raises their flag over America’s Embassy in Kabul. This is complete failure through weakness, incompetence, and total strategic incoherence.

    1. The MSM moguls told the voters late last year how Biden was the most qualified man for the job, they forgot to tell them that he as a Senator blocked funding to organize a retreat from Saigon, but at least he isn’t writing mean tweets.

    2. The voice of the tomb, the echo chamber that is the black heart of the Jezebel demon queen of the hyperbolic S.S. she wolf pack sweatshop vanities. The pickled punks, the carnival of lost souls and the dark shepherds of the black hearted one. Baaah baaah black sheep. Sweat shop till you drop demon drama queens.

    1. Female secret service agents accused Joe Biden of skinny dipping in front of them and being a creep.🤢🤮

  2. Stop letting these awful outlets manufacture your consent to war. What is the actual cost of winning the war vs. the Graveyard of Empires? Too high for a country that need healing.

  3. Darn straight! We should’ve had a plan to bring the interpreters, that supported our troops, back to the USA before we pulled out. The debate of whether we should’ve pulled our troops out is a different subject. But, we can’t abandon those that allied themselves with the USA. Otherwise we will never have the faith of those that are willing to try and make a change in the Middle East.

    1. @Jesse Watters Wasn’t it Trump who declared them defeated ?
      And started the withdrawal?

      He should have asked his former buddy Gerry Adams how long a terriost group can lie in waiting , for the right moment

  5. Sgt Gerald seems extremely genuine and make total sense when he says that Bagram airbase should be the last point of withdrawal after every USA soldier and supporters have been evacuated. Biden plan of withdrawal and re-deployment in kabul without US army base is non-sense

  9. “The Taliban is not the North Vietnamese Army. They’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstances where you’re going to see people being lifted off the roof of an embassy in the United States from Afghanistan.” – Joe Biden

    1. Oh no one knows the future. His larger point stands, it had to end. And, so he called it. The optics were never going to be pretty.

  10. WE NEED more people like this, people who truly care, People who see we are all humans. this is wonderful… why can’t Americans be like this more at home?
