1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: So Joe Biden wants you to believe that everything's going 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:08,239 Speaker 1: smoothly in Afghanistan getting American troops out. He even did 3 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 1: a Sunday update for you to let you know that, Hey, 4 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:16,320 Speaker 1: everything's gonna be just fine. But what's happening in Afghanistan. 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 1: He can't even run full from the situation. And couple, 6 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 1: for example, has turned so bad that for any American 7 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: trying to get to the airport, they are now being 8 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: beaten and their passports are being confiscated. US Congressman Dan 9 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: Crenshaw tweeted out earlier, I have firsthand reports of an 10 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:50,639 Speaker 1: eighteen month old beaten to keep the parents back. That's right, 11 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: an American family caught in Afghanistan. They beat the eighteen 12 00:00:55,240 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: month old child so the parents would retreat. Joe Biden 13 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: has not taken any action to stop eighteen month old 14 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: children from being beaten. Joe Biden has not taken action 15 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,559 Speaker 1: to allow our forces to push out past the gates 16 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: to assist people that have the right paperwork. We know 17 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: that now, and we know that things are getting worse. 18 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: ABC News reporter even went out and shattered Biden's claims 19 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: that the Taliban is letting Americans, and this is what 20 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: they've been trying to tell you. This is what they've 21 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,199 Speaker 1: been saying. They've been saying, well, don't worry, because we've 22 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: been you know, Joe Biden in the White House. They said, hey, 23 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: these Americans are getting through. We're trusting the Taliban to 24 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: allow Americans get through, and there's no indication they're not 25 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: allowing them to get through. That is a line. We 26 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: have videos now proving it. We have videos now proving 27 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: that this is a total lie. Bull through the airport. 28 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: We've made an agreement with the Taliban. Thus far they've 29 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: allowed them to go through. It's and they're interested to 30 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: go through. So we know of no circumstance where American 31 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: citizens are carrying an American passport or trying to get 32 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: through to the airport. That's a lie. Joe Biden just 33 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: lied to you. Joe Biden just lied to save face. 34 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: Joe Biden knew when he said that, and he had 35 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: been in his intelligence cables had told him that what 36 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: he was saying right then, and there is a lie. 37 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: And now they're beating the children. So the parents were 38 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: retreat and not try to go to the airport. Joe 39 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: Biden has refused to allow our men and women in 40 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 1: the military to get outside of the gates. He is 41 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: not allowed our men and women in uniform to do 42 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: their jobs, to go out and get people. Marcus Latrelle, 43 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: who is known as the Lone Survivor, he took politics 44 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 1: out of it when he made an appearance on TV 45 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: this week, just saying, mister president slids to her job. 46 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: Just let us go do our job. We'll get every 47 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: American out. They didn't leave me behind. They found me 48 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: in a hole. Because in America we have a never 49 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 1: leave someone behind mentality. We send the entire way to 50 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: the United States of America to go get Americans when 51 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 1: they are left behind, because we don't leave them behind. 52 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: As president, just let us do our job. We're ready 53 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: to go. Give me twelve guys, as he put it, 54 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: just let me go and do my job. ABC reporter 55 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: on the ground shattered Biden's claims on ABC News tonight, 56 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: right after Joe Biden. I'm gonna play it for you 57 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: again because I want you to hear it. Joe Biden 58 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: his own words, lying to every American telling you, oh, 59 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: there's no problems in Kabul, there's no issues there. You 60 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: can go to the airport in the Taliban, they're letting 61 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: you walk right through. We know Taliban beating Americans. We 62 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: know that the Taliban is taking American passports, and now 63 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: they're beating children. Eighteen month old infant children be able 64 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: to get in Couble through the airport. We've made an 65 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: agreement with the Taliban. Thus far they've allowed them to 66 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: go through it, and they're interested to go through. So 67 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: we know of no circumstance where American citizens are carrying 68 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: an American passport or trying to get through to the airport. 69 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: Is that square with purporting on the ground, I mean, 70 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: just totally not. I mean, the reaction was pretty much 71 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: one of I mean, it was breathtaking, no indication Americans 72 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: can't get to the airport. I mean, last nights on 73 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: World News, we had American citizens who had exactly that experience. 74 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: They tried to get to the airport, They had waighd 75 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: their American passports. The President talked about all they had 76 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 1: to do was present their passports and they'd be allowed through. 77 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: They were beaten by the Taliban with the rubber fan 78 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: belt from a vehicle. Multiple examples of Americans and Afghans 79 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: SIV applicants who have now tried repeatedly, as one woman 80 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: we're tracking. She's back at the airport tonight. This is 81 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: a third night in the row. The gates haven't opened, 82 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: the Taliban haven't let her through. It just seems the 83 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: reality and the rhetoric Miles apart. Now, now I love 84 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 1: that it says the rhetoric or Miles apart, it's not 85 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: the rhetoric. It's the lie. It's not rhetoric. It's a lie. 86 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: Let's call it a lie. Let's not act like it's 87 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: news to answer the question, acting like, oh, you're overreacting. Yeah, 88 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: so some people got beaten that we're American systems and 89 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: almost it's almost like this administration is like, well, but 90 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: did you die? Right? Like, did you die? No? Okay, well, 91 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: then stop complaining. Assessment of the situation on the ground 92 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 1: and that he's saying that Secretary Austin specifically acknowledged that 93 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: Americans were being beaten on their way to the airport. 94 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: Can you give us any more detail about what who 95 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: these Americans are that Secretor Austin was talking about. We've 96 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: actually been talking about this for several days here here 97 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: at this particular podium. We we know of cases, a 98 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: small number that we know of, and we don't have 99 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: perfect visibility, but we know of a small number of 100 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 1: cases where some Americans and certainly, as the Secretary also 101 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: said in that statement, Afghans, Afghans that we want to evacuate. 102 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: Not it wasn't just Americans that he talked about have 103 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: been harassed and in some cases beaten. We don't believe 104 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: it is a very large number. And in a matter 105 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: of fact, the numbers would indicate and I've said this, 106 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,119 Speaker 1: I love this. Basically, it's not a large number of folks. 107 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: So calm down, right, it makes everything better, Like it's 108 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: not a big deal. Everybody just calmed down, okay, right, 109 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: just just just relax. Young children, by the way, amongst 110 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: seven killed in a crowd stampede at the Kabul Airport, 111 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: not a big deal. It's only seven. I'm sure it's 112 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 1: what the White House will say. Seven people were actually 113 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: crushed to death as massive crowds fell against the concrete 114 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 1: barriers outside the Kabal Airport is they gathered to try 115 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,239 Speaker 1: to flee Afghanistan after the Taliban took control that According 116 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: to the Britain's Ministry of Defense, panic crowds were pushing 117 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: forward an attempt to board evacuation planes when the tragedy 118 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: took place. Conditions on the ground remain extremely challenging, the 119 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,559 Speaker 1: UK said, but we're doing everything we can to manage 120 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: the situation safely and securely as possible. It's what the 121 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: UK Defense Ministry said in a statement this morning. Taliban 122 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: fighters also spart panted by firing into the air to 123 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: drive off more people who are attempting to get past 124 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: guards and to the airport. Our sincere thoughts or were 125 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: the families of the seven Afghan civilians who have sadly 126 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: died in crowds in Kabbala, the mystery said in statement, 127 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: Now we could stop all this in two seconds. Sky 128 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: News Global correspondents who are Ramsey outside the international airport 129 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: was where he reports seeing the frustrated, frustrating crowds trying 130 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: to get inside before it descended into deadly k us. 131 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: At the front of the queue, people were being crushed 132 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: to death. He noting even as these soldiers fired into 133 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: the air to disperse the crowd, people still pushed forward. 134 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: One mother who lost her child in the deadly crush 135 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: later detailed events that came is the crowd was reportedly 136 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: sprayed with a hose to keep people cool. People were 137 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: dying of heat stroke. Were now being told, my heart 138 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: is bleeding. The mother, the girl's mother said, you won't 139 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: know who she is. She's a former employee the US 140 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: organization in Kabul, she said The New York Times. It 141 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: was like drowning and trying to hold your baby above 142 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: the water. The baby died. The baby died. Welcome to 143 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: Biden's America. Even CNN now is fact checking Joe Biden's 144 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: claims that al Qaida has gone from Afghanistan, then the 145 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: Pentagon confirms he's still there. Even CNN can't hold this 146 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: guy above water. Even CNN keep Biden's head above water 147 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: with the criticism that he is receiving right now. In fact, 148 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was confronted about what Americans think about him 149 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: and how bad things are actually going. He was asked 150 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: this at the White House. Of course, he went to 151 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: one of the easy reporters when they were asking this question, 152 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: and he smiled and laughed when he was confronted with 153 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 1: what Americans think of what is going on in his 154 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: administration right now. Aday shows, but it disapproved of the way. 155 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: You also found in based in part what you're inspired 156 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: in the last meeting, the majority of Americans forgive me 157 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: out this a messager no longer considering you to comment 158 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 1: focus job. I haven't seen that pool, he laughs, I 159 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: haven't seen that poll. When you're being told that the 160 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: majority of Americans don't believe that you're competent, we're talking 161 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: about commondency. Now, we're talking about what we all warned 162 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: you about for a long time, that this Joe Biden 163 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: clearly can't handle this job, that there is something wrong 164 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 1: with him, right, that there's something wrong with him. Everybody 165 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: is throwing Joe Biden under the bus because they don't 166 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: believe he can do the job. That's the problem here. 167 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: They don't believe that he can actually do what he's doing, 168 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: which is exactly why even CNN is throwing him under 169 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: the bus at this point. Now, he did this first, 170 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: you know mea culpa interview right with George Sepanopolis, which 171 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: was embarrassing, it was a joke, but even CNN ripped Biden. 172 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: Listen to part of this question the ABC George Sepanopolis interview, 173 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: and then listen to CNN describing the reality of what's happening. 174 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: What's happened over the last week. Was it a failure 175 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: of intelligence, planning, execution, or judgment. Look, I don't think 176 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: it was a Look, it was a simple choice, George. 177 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: There's hysteria. You have Taliban fighters with whips with guns, 178 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: You have US and UK soldiers who are not allowing 179 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: people in. You have mixed messaging coming through about what 180 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: kind of paperwork you need and how you can get 181 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: on a flight and where you can go. I mean, 182 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: it is just an absolute mess. And we heard President 183 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: Biden say yesterday in his comments to ABC News that 184 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: this is not a failure. And I think a lot 185 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: of people outside that airport, particularly those taking the kinds 186 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: of extreme actions we're just talking about, would like to know, 187 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: if this isn't failure, what does failure look like? Exactly 188 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: that's CNN saying it. If this isn't failure, what does 189 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: failure look like? Now? The State Department is still trying 190 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: to downplay all of this right now, acting like none 191 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: of this is happening. Anthony Blincoln, Secretary of State, was 192 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: on Fox News Sunday and there was a fair question 193 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: that was asked him, like does the president even know 194 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: what's going on? He lied about Americans being beaten. He said, 195 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 1: the Taliband's not in Afghanistan, they are, said, Okada is 196 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: not in Afghanistan, they are. Does he even know what's 197 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: going on? Here's another statement that the President made that 198 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: was flat wrong. Take a look. I have seen no 199 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: question of our credibility from our allies around the world. 200 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: I've gotten the exact opposite things. We're acting with dispatch. 201 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: We're acting committing to what we said we would do. 202 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: But Armand Laschett, the likely successor to German Chancellor Merkel, 203 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: said this is the biggest debacle that NATO has seen 204 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: since its foundation. And here was the chairman of the 205 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: British Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee to see that Commander in 206 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: chief calling to question the courage of men I fought 207 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: with to claim that they ran shameful. Those who have 208 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: never fought for the colors they fly should be careful 209 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: about christcizing those who have. That's a secretary. Does the 210 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: President not know what's going on? This is an incredibly 211 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: emotional time for many of us UH and including allies 212 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: and partners who've been shouldered. I love this. It's incredibly 213 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 1: incredibly emotional time. It doesn't seem to be from the 214 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: White House. Doesn't seem to be from the White House 215 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: at all? What is what is emotional from the White House? 216 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 1: Serious question here right, Like, well, what is so emotional 217 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: coming from the White House? I want to know because 218 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: this guy acts like there's nothing going on, that there 219 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 1: is nothing emotional, that nothing is happening. I really do 220 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: I want to know. You know, oh, this is such 221 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: an emotional time. Is it emotional because you know that 222 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: eight month old American systems are being beaten? Is that 223 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: what it is? Is that why this is emotional? I'm curious. 224 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 1: Someone explain it to me. Okay, someone explain it to me. 225 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: I am genuinely curious. What is it that it makes 226 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: it so emotional? Is it emotional to know that you're 227 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: leaving Americans behind? Is it emotional to know that you 228 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: put Americans in this situation in this scenario? Is that 229 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: what is making it so quote emotional? If someone can 230 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: explain it to me, I would love to hear from 231 00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: the White House because when you come out on TV 232 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: and you act like somehow you're the victim. I mean, 233 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: we had an eight hour period over the weekend we 234 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: didn't see a single US plane evacuate people from Kabble. 235 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: Not a single plane took off. Was that emotional for 236 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: the White House? Or were you guys taking naptime. I'm 237 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: a little confused over how you guys are emotional, Joe Biden. No, no, 238 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: the allies are upset with me. NATO's saying this is 239 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: the biggest failure since its inception, saying, this is the 240 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: worst we've ever seen. Afghan and san Evak is drawing 241 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: international kind of nation from our allies. That's how bad 242 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: it is. Hadn't heard that. Joe Biden says, everybody loves me, 243 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: everybody likes me. Everything's fine, there's nothing to see here. 244 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: I love it when I actually get to quote CNN 245 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: because it's hilarious that even CNN is telling Joe Biden, 246 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: you're insane. By the way, CNN, you guys did this. 247 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: You're the ones that pushed the Russian hoax. You're the 248 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: guys that went upset, went psycho trying to get Donald 249 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: Trump and peached at all costs. You're the guys that 250 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: push insurrection, and this is what a real insurrection looks like, 251 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: not what happened January the six. You're the ones that 252 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: put up the faces of Americans in around the capital 253 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: in January six is get him arrested. You're the ones 254 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: that put out basically an enemy's list. Trust me, I know, 255 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: I had to work there for seven years. It was awful. 256 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: But it's hilarious when even CNN can't hold his head 257 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: above water, and they're the ones that actually came out 258 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 1: reported like eight hours. What the hell's going on? For 259 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: eight hours, not a single plane evacuated people from Cobble 260 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: and then the White House is It's a very emotional time, 261 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: Frances I've ever had, because the desperation with ninety eight 262 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: opened just a tiny just a jar, and there's just 263 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: as rushed people pushing, pushing, and we're desperately trying to 264 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: stand up and holding hands with my colleague, with some 265 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: of our local staff who were trying to get out 266 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: out and everybody's screaming and children are screaming and on 267 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 1: the other side of the boards creaming to get back. 268 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just unconscionable that there are with it. 269 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: It's there are carrying net born baby, and I just 270 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: you know, I hear it. At a certain point, I'm 271 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: not a lot to words, honestly, by the way, those 272 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: are gunshots. You're hearing the background. Everything's fine, though not 273 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: a problem. Everything's good. No one's mad at me. I'm 274 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: doing everything. This was inevitable, This is inevitable, is going 275 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 1: to happen? Well, I was actually gonna say, I mean, 276 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: this is a situation that it's it's it's unsustainable, is 277 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: what you're describing. And as everyone knows who's who, who 278 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: follows you're reporting and have for years. You have covered 279 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: a lot of Warren conflict. You have seen some of 280 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: the best and worst of humanity, the best and worst 281 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 1: of humanity. This was all avoidable. This was flat out avoidable. 282 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 1: She said, I've been sitting here for twelve hours the airport, 283 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: eight hours on the airfield, and I haven't seen a 284 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 1: single US plane take off. How on earth are you're 285 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: going to evacuate fifty thousand people in the next two weeks. 286 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: It just can't happen. And this is the president. It's 287 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: still taking naps. I got to go back to Joe 288 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: Biden for just a moment. Biden is saying, well, there 289 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: could be some other bad things that happen. You think so, 290 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 1: he said Sunday afternoon, this to the Taliban. Taliman has 291 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: to make a fundamental decision. Is it Taliman going to 292 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: attempt to be able to unite and provide for the 293 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: well being of the people of Afghanistan, which no one 294 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:52,479 Speaker 1: group has ever done since before dealing for hundreds of years. 295 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: And if it does, it's going to need everything from 296 00:18:55,880 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: additional help in terms of economic assistance, trade and the 297 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: whole regions things. That's what he has to say about 298 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: the Taliban. The Taliban, it's beating eighteen month old children. 299 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: The Taliban is shooting at people so that they'll crush 300 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: each other and die at the airport, including children that 301 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: were suffocated death against the barriers at the airport, and 302 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: the last twenty four hours, And Joe Biden said today, well, 303 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean, look, hey, a lot could still go wrong 304 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: with Afghanistan evacuations. Thanks Captain Obvious for clearing that up. 305 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: One trapped American mother said that she is now considering 306 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: suicide as it would spare her from whatever the Taliban 307 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: would attempt to do to her. There's a little doubt 308 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: that the fall of Afghanistan's government to the Taliban was 309 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: going to end an immense and troubling bloodshed, but it's 310 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:48,439 Speaker 1: doubtful that too many Americans were prepared for this. President 311 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: Biden's decisions to withdraw the US troops from the nation 312 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: ahead of schedule has led to utter chaos as everyone 313 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: knows and cobbling around Afghanistan as a terror group, the 314 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: Taliban continue to reach havoc on the population. Biden the 315 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: White House that suggest that Americans should quote unquote be 316 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: able to find safe passage out of the nation. Taliban 317 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: too able to let that happen. Everything's fine, the reality no. 318 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: An American mother on the ground has been describing the 319 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: horror that has fallen on her and those around her. 320 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: She's worried quote she'll never see her kids again and 321 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: is in hiding with family members and African allies, unable 322 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 1: to reach Kabel Airport for a chance at an evak. 323 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: I really have given up hope, given up on the 324 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: hope of going to the airport, the woman said. It's 325 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: just not possible to make it through all those people. 326 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: She said there are as many as twenty Taliban checkpoints 327 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: between her and the airport, and she's one of an 328 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 1: uncertain number of americansistants trapped behind enemy lines. And then 329 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: she was whipped by Taliban fighters on one attempt to 330 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: get through, she said, and this was early on. A 331 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: man standing near her was shot in the head on 332 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: another try, leaving his wife and baby in tears. Since then, 333 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: she said her only option is hiding. Quote. We are devastated, 334 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 1: she said to Fox News. We're scared for our lives. 335 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: Every moment that a car passes by, I feel like 336 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 1: they're going to pull in and execute us. I don't 337 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: know if I'm going to see my children again. The 338 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: American mother said it she would rather take her own 339 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 1: life than be subjected to whatever ill will the Taliban 340 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: has in store for her should she be captured attempting 341 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 1: to flee that she says. The reality of the situation 342 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: in Kabul twenty checkpoints between her and the airport. Other 343 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 1: Americans say that they are terrified of what the Taliban 344 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: is going to do to them. The president was asked 345 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: a question earlier, a simple question, why is it that 346 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 1: you keep trusting the Taliban and when this is what 347 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: the Taliban is doing, mister president, So that's what's happened, 348 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: Thank you very very much. Why do you continue to 349 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: trust the Taliban? Mister president? What did Joe Biden do? 350 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: He walked away, He walked away. He walked away. Taliban 351 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: now parading with US weaponry. Not only parading with US weaponry, 352 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: but they're dressing up like Americans and redoing the flag 353 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 1: planet that is so famous. Yeah, no, they're just they're 354 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: just now mocking us. Taliban sympathizers are reportedly circulating images 355 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: on social media of jihad is parading through the streets 356 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: of one of the regional capitals, proudly just playing American weapons. 357 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: The Tali Alaban is showcasing its Special Force troops dressed 358 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: in white and waiving the official flag of the Gihattis organization. 359 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: The video shows the terrorists wearing face coverings, apparently bulletproof vests, 360 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 1: and large firearms that are all American origin. The event 361 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,880 Speaker 1: reportedly occurred on Thursday, Afghanistan's Independence Day, as they called it. 362 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 1: Other images circulating on social media allegedly organized originating excuse 363 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: me on Taliban social media networks, showed the scale of 364 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: the parade, featuring at least a dozen of the men 365 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: wearing Special Forces outfits, but hundreds of others in attendance. 366 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 1: They're on top of American Hunby hunves. Taliban fighters are 367 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: actually standing guard at the Kabbol Airport using our armored 368 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: hunvs and r machine guns pointed at the American soldiers. 369 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: I cannot explain to you how big of a victory 370 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: this is. Tony Blair came out and said this, and 371 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 1: he said it, said, every terrorist on the planet is 372 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 1: laughing in America thanks to Joe Biden. How sad that 373 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: it took a former British prime ministers say that and 374 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: not the establishment media in America. He said, every gehowdest 375 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 1: group in the world is cheering right now. Tony Blair 376 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: attacked the Biden administration's Afghan policy is a little more 377 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: than sacrificing Afghan allies for the sake of political posturing 378 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: at home. Same thing. I told you. It's all for 379 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: the cameras, right. I'm the guy that got you out 380 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: Afghanistan on September eleven, twenty years after we got in there. 381 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: You're welcome. Pat me on the back. That's my legacy. 382 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: I'm Joe Biden. Quote. The abandonment of afghan It's people 383 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: is tragic, Tony Blair said, dangerous, unnecessary, not in their 384 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: interests and not in ours, adding that the manner of 385 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: America's flight under President Joe Biden appeared designed to parade 386 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 1: our humiliation. Blair said Biden's decision to run from Afghanistan 387 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 1: in this way was driven not by grand strategy but 388 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: solely by politics. We didn't need to do it, we 389 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: chose to do it. We did it in obedience to 390 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 1: an embletic political slogan about ending before ever wars. Yeah 391 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: where urged those around Joe Biden to please think about 392 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: changing course before more people die. Kevin McCarthy, GOP leader 393 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: in the House, tweeted this out Biden's claim, we know 394 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: of no circumstances where American citizens carrying an American passport 395 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: are trying to get through the airport. Fact, the Islamic 396 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: state issue to tear throat against Americans trying to go 397 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: to the Kabbel airport. He was lying, or he's incompetent, 398 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: or both, And he's absolutely right in the tweet in 399 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 1: his anger. But hey, you know what's not a lot 400 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: of Americans being physically harassed and beaten and harmed by 401 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: the Taliban. Yes, the Pentagon confirms they've been harassed and beaten, 402 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: but it's not that many, right, It's really not a 403 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: big deal. Not a big deal. Look, if you're being 404 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: harassed or beaten by the Taliban behind enemy lines and 405 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 1: Kabble Afghanistan. The Pentagon said, we don't believe it is 406 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: in a large number, so at least there's that. In 407 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: the same press conference, the Pentagon spokesman Kirby indicated most Americans, 408 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: he claimed, are having no problem reaching the extradition the 409 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: extraction point at the airport. That is a lie quote 410 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: the best of our knowledge, Taliban checkpoints they are letting 411 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: through people showing American passports. No they're not. They're beating 412 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: them and taking their passports. Biden said this in contradiction 413 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: to his own Defense secretary, who initially stated that Americans 414 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: have been abused and beaten on the ground. The our 415 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 1: own embassy in Keble on Saturday put out a warning 416 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: to American citizens to avoid the airport because of security 417 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: threats outside of the gate, saying don't come and if 418 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: you think getting people outs going, well, it's a total 419 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 1: blank show. Nearly empty US flights are leaving Kabole as 420 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 1: Biden abandons Americans in Afghanistan. Many planes this is as 421 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: of right now are reportedly leaving Afghanistan nearly empty, while 422 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: private organizations are begging the US government to no avail 423 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: to let them charter private flights to airlift more American 424 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: citizens and Afghans who assisted the US mission. Major General 425 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: Hank Taylor, the deputy director of the Joint Tiefs to Staff, 426 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: said on Thursday that while the military had the capacity 427 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: to move between three to five thousand or maybe five 428 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 1: to nine thousand people per day, only about two thousand 429 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 1: have been moved in the last twenty four hour period. 430 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: Why because they don't know what the hell they're doing. See, 431 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: seventeen planes cable of comfortably fitting three hundred people took 432 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 1: only around one hundred and ten people each on eighteen 433 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: flights that evacuated two thousand from the country. That doesn't 434 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: mean just because you have five thousand seats that you 435 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: can automatically fill five thousand seats every day, pending on 436 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: Press Secretary John Kirby said during the press conference. Right, 437 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 1: so everybody calmed down, and then there was an eight 438 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: hour period where no flights left Cobble, No American flights anyway, 439 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: no American flights. Another journalist posted a picture of the 440 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: flight he was on, saying I'm on my way home, 441 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: but this aircraft is empty. Scandalous as thousands wait outside 442 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: the airport being crushed as they cannot get in. Sadly, 443 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 1: people will be left behind when this mission is over 444 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: and we cannot get it right. He literally put up 445 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: a picture of an empty airplane that he was in leaving. 446 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: Let me also remind you that Joe Biden actually said 447 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: at one point, in not a joke, that there's nothing 448 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: special about being an American. Did you hear me? Joe 449 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: Biden actually said at one point that there is quote 450 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: nothing special about being an American. And maybe that explains 451 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: why all of this is happening. Maybe this explains exactly 452 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: why Joe Biden can literally look the other way, go 453 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: on vacation, look the other way, and go on vacation 454 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: while all of this is happening. Kamala Harris was just 455 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 1: asked a moment ago about the Americans trapped in Afghanistan. 456 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: She just laughed at you out everybody. I want to 457 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: talk about two things. First, Afghanistan, we couldn't have a 458 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: higher priority right now, and in particular if it's making 459 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: sure that we safely evasculated American citizens, Afghans who work 460 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: with US, Afghans at risk, including women and children, and 461 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: that is one of our highest if not the highest priority. 462 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: Right now, she laughs as she walks up there. Calm down, everybody, 463 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: ha ha ha. Okay, now let me tell you the 464 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: Let me tell you the line I'm gonna give you. Really, 465 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 1: there's no there's no higher priority, no higher priority. You 466 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: guys won't even go out and get people. If it 467 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: was a high priority, you go out and get people, 468 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: you wouldn't have trapped American mothers kind and putting suicide 469 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: because there's nine, ten, eleven, twelve Taliban checkpoints between her 470 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: and the airport in Kabbal Let me say that again. 471 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: You have a mother who said there are as many 472 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: as excuse me, I got the number wrong, twenty taliban 473 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 1: checkpoints between her and the airport, and she's one of 474 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: an uncertain number of American citizens trapped behind enemy lines 475 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: who says, I am not going to fall into the 476 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: hands of the Taliban, not gonna let them behead me. 477 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: But hey, if you're Kamala Harris, let's laugh about it. Right, 478 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: If you're Joe Biden saying, hey, Americans feel like you're incompetent, 479 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: that you're not going to do enough. You're not helping them, right, 480 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: You're not You're not doing enough to help people. Joe Biden, 481 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: what does he say about that? He laughs, I haven't 482 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: seen that poll. I go back to two thousand. In 483 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: fourteen October the second twenty fourteen, Joe Biden was speaking 484 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: at Harvard and Joe Biden said this about American citizens 485 00:31:52,320 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: in fourteen, American strength ultimately lies it is people. Nothing 486 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: special about being American. None of you can define for 487 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: me what an American is. Nothing special about being an American. 488 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: That was at the John F. Kennedy's School of Government 489 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: at Harvard. There's nothing special about being American. None of 490 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: you can define for me what an American is. Well, 491 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: maybe that explains why I didn't give a crap about 492 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: Americans dying in Afghanistan. Maybe that's it. Maybe that explains 493 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: it all. You have gunfire ringing out the airport. You 494 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 1: have babies now being crushed suffocated to death because the 495 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: Taliban knows that with that many people, they're gonna rush 496 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: towards the fences, the gates, and the people will die. 497 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: They're using our humbes to mock us, pointing our weapons 498 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: at our soldiers at the fences. And we have a 499 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: president of the United SI it's America who is refusing 500 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: to go out and get people, refusing to go out 501 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: and get people because this is our top priority. Except 502 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: it's not our top priority. No, no, no no, this is 503 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: our top priority. But we're on vacation. This is our 504 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: top priority. But we're not going to go out the 505 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: gates to try to pick up anybody, help anybody, find anybody. 506 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: Let's deal with the reality. The reality is the Taliban 507 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: is separate from al Qaida. Okay, we know that, right. 508 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: We know that al Qaida or Isis is different. We 509 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: know that they play by a different set of rules. 510 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: We know that the Taliban wants to keep things a 511 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: little bit different. The Mujihadeen, by the way, the Afghan 512 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: Mujihadeen and local militias say they're very concerned now about 513 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: Americans being taken and beheaded at the hands of our 514 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: Kaida or Isis. So what happens if that happens. Forget 515 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: the Taliban's let's talk about al Qaida. We know that 516 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 1: al Qaida is in Afghanistan, and we know that the 517 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: President knights Its America lied about that this week as well, 518 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: saying they're not there. We know they're there. The Pentagon 519 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: has said it. The State Department said it, even that 520 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 1: the Taliban has said it. So what happens then? What 521 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: happens then? Do we just let them behead Americans? Think 522 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: about that because this president's not even going outside the 523 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: gates to get people you don't think ISIS and Alkaida 524 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:41,919 Speaker 1: is going to figure that out pretty soon. That it's 525 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: open season on Americans. You can do what you want 526 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: because this president is not going to stop it.
