Actually, Joe Biden's dad set it in motion unfortunately, February, 1942.

That probably squares with most of the mainstream media. I'll listen to some of their commentary as the day goes on. Curious to see if that is the general consensus between them.

He may have meant that literally. This one is his body double.

Have the people managing Biden him kept the comments from the U.K., Parliament, France and Germany from him?
Yeah, because the legislative body of a NATO ally voting to hold you in contempt isn’t criticism.

Parliament holds Joe Biden in contempt over Afghanistan

Kamala just left for Singapore & Vietnam.

I hope someone doesn't let her come back.

It would have been handled in a much better and professional way.

Taliban Joe did not realize you get out civilians BEFORE you withdraw the military. Trump would have.

Leaving is not the problem, most of us want that. It's how it was executed.

Actually, no. In fact, we probably have no allies after this.

Executed , due to bumbling Joe, may be a bad choice of words, for the tens of thousands Joe left behind. i wonder how many are already dead this week.
