SOS Blinken should resign, General Malley should resign, SOD Austin should resign. Incompetence from the top to bottom.
Does that include weapons.
They should be tarred and feathered
@@bellie8009 That, too.
The entire TaliBiden Regime occupying our White House need tried for *T R E A S O N* and if found guilty, lynched on live T.V.
Millie should be Court-Martial and sent to Fort Leavenworth!
They said they disabled most of the equipment. The parade the taliban put on the day after we left says otherwise.
they released numerous videos of disabled equipment ffs
We're you involved?
Do you have REAL FACTS?

Those Blackhawks look like they work pretty good flying people around that they don't like, that are on a rope around their necks
🤣😂🤣there’s no supply chain you can only canablize so many vehicles before everything is just trash
That was two different cities. We had equipment all over the country. What little that was as the Kabul airport was slightly broken down, but in Kandahar, they have plenty of fine equipment, that’s where the parade was.
They are hoping we'll forget about this....
NO WAY !!!
Ain’t no frighten way!!
He is hands down the most pitiful president and she is the most pitable full vice president this country has ever ever seen.

I couldn't agreed more with senator Cruz. Why is Biden & Kamala not being impeached!!!
Y’all been dead for 40 years now and y’all need to stop the party BS, no one’s good at this job
Trump did the deal on February 2020 and the only thing he did was pull out the 10500
troops and after that there was 10 months to complete the deal but as usual he spend most of his time churning lies and faithfully never missing golfing every weekends thus never finishing his homework but set a date for the final withdrawal to May 2021. Where were you Cruz and why you never push Trump to withdraw in his term and there was 20 months thus you were sleeping too.
When Biden took over the deal there was only 2500 American troops left there and on top of that the 300000 American trained Afgan troops gave a walk over and with such odds at hand Biden managed to bring in 2 weeks more than 120000 people and troops. Trump does things to get praises and applauds and after that he never finishes his deal and others have to clean up the shit he created and of he cannot finish the Afgan deal with the Talibans why did he in thefirst place make the deal and after election the new President would have done things his way or America could have been there for a bit more longer then withdraw at the right moment.
Thus as usual Trump is the one who set up this deal and Biden honoured the deal and got caught in this unexpected mess but whatever were the problems Biden brought out more than 120000 people and troops in just 2 weeks which Trump failed to do it in his term.
If you study the American history for the 4 years Trump was there he especially messed up the Covid 19 pandemic and his late actions caused the death of more than 600000 people, BLM protests, the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol and the half cooked Taliban deal all the masterpices under Trump and even he still crying election fraud after 10 months after election will all be recorded in the American history. Still Americans want to believe him is minding boggling and he a cult leader like Hitler and Charles Manson and as history has shown us people will blindly follows the cult leaders and under Trump he has brainwashed his supporters and thats why they are still blindly following him until today. Thus Americans must distinguish between Democracy and Cultists and in Democracy the people elect the leaders and whoever wins will become the President and the loser will leave like a gentleman unlike in the last election Trump is crying election fraud and wants to remain in power and after he left the WH 10 months have passed and he is still crying election fraud shows clearly that he is operating as a Cult Leader so are his faithful supporters. Never mix Democracy with Cult system and this is what that is happening in America and it is the duty of the people to steer America towards Democracy and abandon anytypes of Cultists from taking root in their Democratic System of government which has been there for more than 500 years.
@@mathanmathai one point to address. Clinton also insinuated a stolen election in 2016. There were people rioting on the streets because of Trump's election. So don't insinuate that it's the problem of one group when its in fact the problem of many political groups in America.
I agree with you 1,000% these two are completely bringing down our country and I don't know why nothing has been done to get them out of office whether to impeachment or any other way but they have to go, let's get our country back to the strong and proud country we once were.
Thank You very much senator Cruz for calling them lying,weak, cowards out and making them answer your questions.
Imagine being one of the Americans still in Afganistan with those terrorists telling you what to do and fear mongering. This is a huge mistake they are still trying to brush off as if its not a big deal.
And still they blame Trump.
@@elisaseverns2543 Yup he signed up peace treaty with no Exit strategy.
@@douglasbraxton7038 the person in charge at the time of the exit is the one who decides the strategy. Besides, Pompeo did give an outline of their plan back in feb of 2020.
@@elisaseverns2543 Nope, Former president trump set up the timeline ( When he signed a peace treaty) With no exit Strategy( Exit visas were blocked by his administration for Afghans We needed to get out of the country. What was his policy on moving Access military equipment zip! In fact he was trying to pull the troops out January 15th of this year.( with no plan for there safe withdraw) He left the cluster funk, and as far as I am concerned. But 120,000 persons Evacuated by over 100 Air flights( Both military and civilian)without the loss of a single plane this will go down as the Greatest humanitarian Airlift in modern history. There's nothing to blame, Everybody knew it was going to be messy, We have economic leverage To get the remaining people out ( 22 tons of Solid gold bricks belonging to the government of Afghanistan)who didn't pay attention When to get out. It could have been a hell of a lot worse. Can you imagine if former president trump had not been talked out of removing the troops on January 15 2021 with no exit plan? Hundreds maybe thousands of casualties. You're just mad someone pulled off what Trump couldnot. Get over it!
I'd imagine they couldn't believe their eyes what was happening & them being left in terrorist land outgunned by US weapons in enemy hands, they are trapped & the president is worried about vaccine mandates, Biden is so stubbornly anti Trump he embarrassed himself as a president tryna undermine Trump.
Blinken wants to cover up his dishonor by talking about a mini-bus lucky enough to pass through a checkpoint. What an embarrassment.
All the soldiers ive come across all have the same look. They are disappointed that the citizens DON'T HAVE THEIR BACKS!!
Love Well
The citizens have their backs, it's the politicians and the government that sent them over there that don't!
The look you are seeing is their disbelief that Biden and company sold them out.
I would hate to be a recruiter right now.
Come join and die at the hands of these people while they check their watches at your funeral.
American Citizens have their backs! This administration DOES NOT!
Buck Fiden

STRAIGHT FACTS!!!
Really The honorable Anthony Blinkin. It should say the DISHONORABLE!
Get rid of the Biden administration , who did he listen to Obama or Bush
CRUZ ROCKS!!!! Awesome!!!!
Hahaha Biden's White House staffers cut his mic right in the middle of his conversation cuz they're so afraid of what that mush brain is going to say 😂😂😂😱

This adm. is pure evil. I didnt even know about the children. Although it's not surprising. I'm still waiting to know what happened to the children that disappeared that came across the southern border. I'm starting to see a very disturbing trend from this administration.
Like he did when thousands of Texans were without power and he ran off to Cancun while they froze?
@@JeanneBlumLesinski-tr6se yea I wouldn’t rely too much on Ted to do anything

"We inherited a date, we did not inherit a plan." Given that, wouldn't you have wanted to come up with a plan, having had months to do so?
The republican's have never come up with a plan...for anything. Now your upset there was no plan? Idiot
Stop using perfectly sound first stage logical query like some sort of normal human with a brain that functions properly...ain't nobody got time fuhdat
Come on. Why do you think they didnt have a plan? Fed up with people expecting the evacuation of thousands of people not have a glitch of two. If it was soooo easy Trump would have done it. He negotiated an UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER WITH TERRORISTS! YET NOT ONE REPUBLICAN QUESTIONS THAT! THEY ARE VILE.
That's their way of trying to blame Trump. It's funny because when Trump was I power he crushed Isis and killed three of the biggest terrorists in the world. He also kept N. Korea from shooting off missiles over Japan. I didn't vote for Trump but I wish I had....
@@annettepora8091 plan was executed and WE ARE OUT !!!!

All of our military members who fought in Afghanistan and came home and those that died, we the people love them all, pray for them and their families.
Amen 🙏
Now the Afghan vets know how we (Vietnam) Vets felt.
The demorats ran that war an pull out to . had two brothers go an 1 come home an put my time in for God family an country . SEMPER FI. Brother they will never know what it is to have the 10,000 yard stare
To see Blinking smirk when finishing his half ass answer about listing is disgusting.
That was so disgusting... his smirk.. just proves that they don't care about America or answering for their treason...
Piss on them all!!! Get the heck out of Washington an put someone or anyone in. Biden is a disgrace to AMERICA!!
@philo betto U think???please don't waste ur time.
@philo betto U think???please don't waste ur time.
I so wish that Biden was there in person taking this backlash !
He gets away with everything….it is disgusting. 🤮
It’s as simple as stupid is as stupid does.
Has he answered why Americans and Afghanis who worked with us were not evacuated before 100 thousand random Afghanis?
Because those hundred thousand will vote Democrat
Because Biden administration is on a mission to destroy America. You can't control people if they are a free country.
One World Order means that there is going to be One person ( Anti Christ) running the world and those on his side; but to get to that point, the government has to take away our freedoms. Little by little they are chipping away at our freedoms. Getting rid of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
And whoever is not part of this evil plan is either killed or mentally unfit for society.
Soldiers over there been talking about this 20 year's now. They just now bringing it up about abuse.
Another thing that commercial airport was directly in a densely populated area which could have lead to the Afghan storming the airport. Bagram being in the open could have been secured with troops. The US would have had control.
Winkin, Blinken and Nod would make a great politicIan - he is already has a talent for b.s. and doublespeak.
sounds like a law firm
By his non answering I’m gonna say they did
Yes. You can easily tell. The beta chuck was 100% using Strawman and Red Herring cards the whole time.
If you sell weapons you are a happy person. We not only gave away our arsenal, we created an army to fight for the next 20 years.
watching sloppy joe and his orchestra of minions is like watching the movie "Dumb And Dumber"
Was his name the honerable what a joke
Sen. Cruz....Lays it out ..so that even the most Dense of Dims should be able to understand...., but most are in denial.
They are not in denial, they simply do not care.
Natural disaster in Texas no wonder cruz is in D.C.
Beta chuck Blinken was using the "Strawman card and Red herring card" to avoid answering Cruz.
Praying for you all under Biden and his crew I hope you protest them. Love from across the pond
We are trying. Thank you!
Anyone else notice Democrats are going around congratulating each other for the Afghan evacuation, but are still pointing blame at others for what has happened?
True... what is it? A success or a failure? Nice catch Jetski...
SEVERE TDS
Just like Rethuglicans say Biden is a puppet but then blame everything on him.
@@bradleysanford7929 You know what? You're right! We should definitely find out who is running this shadow government and hold them accountable.

@@wmhhealth2018 Don't be so hard on Cruz.
That's because Cruz is a fool. He knows Trump dropped us in the soup and left Biden holding the bag. Ted Cruz said it himself when he was running for office, Donald Trump would be a nightmare as president and now all of a sudden it's Biden's fault we had to withdraw under a treaty that his predecessor made. Please get real.
@@trilithon108 just another wholesome lifestyle choice by the disgusting left. Normalizing anything and everything, demonic reprobates all. You all disgust me.

Thanks for asking about the 12,5000 that we brought to the US. Some need a translator so how did they end up here?
They needed more replacement voters
How can the dem party not see the damage caused by the way the Afghanistan situation was handled?! Would love to hear their explanation as to why they think it was successful. DT would be in jail if he ever did something as stupid!
They see it but they can not and will not admit it because that would be admitting to failure.Criminals have no honor. Blinken, Gen. Milley, VP Harris and Resident Biden should all resign in shame but they will never do it because they have no honor.
Why didn’t he put his family at risk!!

The prophet of Islam married a six year old girl named Aiysha and consummated the marriage at nine. Read these obscene books for yourself, if possible, in the original without the deception of translation. It's much much worse than this.
I'm a commoner and I have more balls than that secretary of state. I would never have allowed soldiers to continue to operate at the same gate knowing fully well that it was going to be attacked. There was no reason to continue to operate and lose all those soldiers and Afghans in a non combat mission. No reason whatsoever.
It goes in one ear and out the other and they'll keep doing these crisis situations on top of it!!🙁👎
