I have ordered our Armed Forces and our Intelligence Community to ensure that we will maintain the capability and the vigilance to address future terrorist threats from Afghanistan.
we have conveyed to the Taliban representatives in Doha, via our Combatant Commander, that any action on their part on the ground in Afghanistan, that puts U.S. personnel or our mission at risk there, will be met with a swift and strong U.S. military response.
I have placed Ambassador Tracey Jacobson in charge of a whole-of-government effort to process, transport, and relocate Afghan Special Immigrant Visa applicants and other Afghan allies. Our hearts go out to the brave Afghan men and women who are now at risk. We are working to evacuate thousands of those who helped our cause and their families.

This is the most blatant destruction of an attempt at peace we have ever seen.
The Taliban now have 2.5 million dollar eagle drones.
More black hawk helicopters than 166 + countries (forgot exact amount)
And are about to take Kabul.
Biden pulled us out of Afghanistan in one of the most clusterf**k ways possible. Left s**t loads of vehicles and weapons that are now in the hands of the Taliban as are all bases that had been occupied by the US and the Brits.
“One of the most important facts that mainstream media ignores time and time again is that ISIS was able to grow so fast, because of all the U.S. military equipment they were able to seize – equipment that our military left in Iraq,”

Do we know for sure that the Taliban actually are the ones behind this?
I mean, I wouldn’t put it beyond the government to drum up some propaganda in order to stay in the country.
But what do I know, I live in Canada.
The Taliban could show up here, bomb our Parliament and our PM would apologize to them.
