Officer who asked for accountability in Afghanistan withdrawal debacle has been jailed. He will be arraigned on Thursday and hasn't been told the charges.
We no longer live in the USA.
Milley makes political comments all the time and gets promoted.

Tucker had a long segment tonight on Lt Shelby and showed Shelby’s video politely asking for some accountability. His lawyer was also on. He’s served in the marines for 17 years and this is what they do to him. While not one military leader is held accountable. It is utterly unfathomable we’ve dropped this low!!
I hope republicans in Congress grow a spine and demand his release and give him back his pension.
Except that Biden did not agree with it. As soon as he was able to, Biden canceled Trump's withdrawal agreement, and made up his own plan. Biden arbitrarily decided to pull out on Sept 11, cuz it would provide great optics politically. He could brag about pulling out all our Troops exactly twenty years after 9/11. Instead he has blood on his hands.
Biden has been busy undoing, and canceling everything Trump did, including scrapping the Doha agreement.
No, but we needed to keep the civilian intel people, military advisors, technicians and mechanics there, because we trained the Afghan military to depend upon them. But dumb ass Biden canceled them too.
Biden is responsible, because it was his very policies and orders which allowed the Taliban to take over the entire country, including the city of Kabul, which allowed our enemies to get within arms reach of us, and all the innocent people we were trying to save.
Biden destroyed the Afghan military's ability to fight, and then he surrendered the entire country to the Taliban without firing a shot. Twenty years wasted, in a senile blink of an eye.
And he totally disrespected those who died there serving our country. My cousin is one of them.

How many more years would you have liked wasted? 20, 200 ?

Those years weren’t a “waste” just ask all the thousands Afghans and Americans who were living there in relative peace for the past 20 years.
Troops in Germany and Japan are actually a waste because there is virtually no threat of either country going back to their WW2 days.
A las, our massive defense bill warrants our massive worldwide troop presence, to include current combat zones. So I guess you’ll just have to get used to it.

Far from it. I have letters from commanders and generals stating quite the opposite. It is because of our time there the Afghans had a chance to know what freedom is. Young girls had a chance at education. Women had a chance to make a difference in their country by holding office. The list goes on.
Now Afghani's are being hung up in public again along with other things. They are going back into what some have not experienced in many years....true oppression.
(I think most of us agree we should withdraw from Afghanistan, but Biden did it in the worst possible way- exactly opposite of Trump's plan.
Please show me some evidence that Trump had a plan for withdrawal from Afghanistan. I'll even settle for any plan that Trump ever had for anything during his four years in office.
