"I made the right call. There is no strategic interest in remaining in Afghanistan. I won't shed more American blood for people who refuse to defend themselves. You Jan 6 traitors can kiss my backside."

We need to play a drinking game. Everytime Idiot Joey says "prior administration' or 'Trump', we drink.
People need to keep in mind that alcohol poisoning is a thing.

The USA can't police the world. Afghanistan fell, Saigon fell. The more things change, the more they remain the same.

if it keeps the terrorists under control than darn right! Not to mention the "guardianship" of Afgan women and girls. Our incompetence have thrown the female pop to the wolves! Hope the dems are happy now! They own this slaughter!

People still remember the helicopter on the roof of the embassy in Saigon, and that was 46 years ago. Policy failures come and go, but when the United States is deeply humiliated in front of the entire world, people tend to remember.

Biden team surprised by rapid Taliban gains in Afghanistan

'Stunned'. That's what you want in the team who is running the country. I guess when NOKO starts something, they will claim 'stunned'. OMFG, is this country screwed.
