I am curious what the alternative is. Leave US troops to fight the Talaban which clearly the Afgans themselves did not want to fight? It was always clear that whenever the US left, the Afgan government would fall. The Talaban have been the only group which has been able to maintain a stable government in the region. The Russians failed in the 80s and now the Americans have. Are the Chinese next?

'The buck stops with me', says Biden but then proceeds to blame Afghan fiasco on Trump and locals who failed to fight the Taliban before staking $500M in aid to refugees then fleeing back to Camp David

  • President Joe Biden cut his trip to Camp David short and returned to the White House Monday to deliver remarks on Afghanistan
  • He defended his decision to bring home U.S. troops despite the Taliban's rapid capture of Kabul but he admitted that the rapid collapse unfolded much faster than anyone expected
  • On Monday night, Biden authorized up to $500 million from an emergency fund to meet 'unexpected urgent' refugee needs stemming from the situation in Afghanistan, including for Afghan special immigration visas
  • U.S. is said to be preparing to begin evacuating thousands of Afghan applicants for the special immigration visas (SIVs) who risk retaliation from Taliban insurgents because they worked for the U.S. government
  • 'Critics say it was not the decision to leave, but the manner of the abrupt departure that caused chaos
  • Biden was originally supposed to stay at Camp David until Wednesday as part of an August vacation
  • The trip triggered criticism that the commander was out of sight as Afghanistan crumbled into chaos
  • He returned to the presidential retreat immediately after delivering his speech

I thought the Biden Administration claimed the last couple of days that they received assurances that the Taliban agreed to give amnesty to US supporters?

  • He answered questions for the first time in a week as the chaotic evacuation of Kabul evacuation continued

  • 'That was four days ago, five days ago,' he said about video from Monday - to the bemusement of his critics
  • Opponents reacted with disbelief to the idea that a chaotic evacuation was inevitable after the US withdrawal
  • 'No way to avoid this chaos? That's a bald-faced lie,' said Senator Tom Cotton, Republican for Arkansas

The guy is an amoral moron.

He might be closely related to Trudeau.
