First of all, 3 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 1: when you compare the Biden today with the Biden we've 4 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: been seeing for the last two weeks and such a 5 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: dramatic rise and energy, and you know it's that that 6 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: in and of itself is weird too. How many cups 7 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: of coffee, jeb Joe? How much did they jack you 8 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: up with caffeine before you went out there today? Because 9 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: you know what, you gotta go out Joe? You what 10 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: was he three and a three hours late? What was 11 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: supposed to be one thirty today? So every day it's like, 12 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: you know, longer and longer before Joe comes out, you 13 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 1: go be tough, Joey, you gotta be tough then yelling, lecturing, lying, 14 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 1: and frankly, everything he said is delusional and not true. 15 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: Calling this an extraordinary success? Is this what you is this? 16 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: How you define success? A bad ending Americans behind enemy lines, 17 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: the enemy lines of terrorists, You call that an extraordinary 18 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: success with unparalleled results. That it was the right move, 19 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: the wise move, the best decision you call the right decision, 20 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: wise decision. Really, this war has ended, It's over. It's ended, No, Joe, 21 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't end until every single solitary American caught behind 22 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: enemy lines is brought to safety. Joe, you left them there, Joe, 23 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: you left our Afghans allies to die. And with the 24 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: data left behind, and the biometrics left behind, and the 25 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: drones and the helicopters and the planes, and however many 26 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: billions of dollars in munitions and so on and so forth. 27 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: This is what you call a success? Okay? Um? If 28 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: this is as a success, you know what other successes? 29 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: You know, do you want to force on the American people? 30 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: Rolling blackouts resulting in deaths and hospitals? Are you gonna 31 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: call your border of success? Your border policies? Begging Opec 32 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: for oil? Is that a success? Getting threatened by China? 33 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 1: Is that a success? Uh? Taiwan reunification that a success? 34 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: North Korea starting up their nuclear reactors that a success? 35 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 1: You know, given putin a pipeline waiver? When when when 36 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: you're taking away American jobs, is that a success? Joe? 37 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: Inflation through the roof that you said was only gonna 38 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:46,239 Speaker 1: be short term, Joe, is that a success? Because if 39 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: this is an extraordinary success with unpaid I do agree 40 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: unparalleled results, except it's a failure. They until he's I 41 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: am all frustrated and angry over that, whatever you want 42 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: to call it, that press conference full of lies, The 43 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: biggest airlifted one hundred and twenty thousand people to safety. 44 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: Later in the speech, he talks about five thousand, five 45 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: hundred Americans. We got five thousand, five hundred Americans out. Well, 46 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: you told us a week ago that we had anywhere 47 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: between ten and fifteen thousand Americans. You didn't know. You 48 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: can't tell us how many Americans. We do know from 49 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: your generals. We left Americans behind. We left them behind 50 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: enemy lines. There are no troops on the ground to 51 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: help them. They have been abandoned by you. And you're 52 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: calling that a success with unparallel results. The right decision, 53 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: the wise decision, the best decision. No, Joe, this is 54 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: a disaster, an unmitigated disaster. You want to talk to 55 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: the people now caught behind enemy lines. You want to 56 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: talk to the families that were apoplectic and livid that 57 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: you met at Dover Air Force Space again, Joe, because 58 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: if this is success, I don't know what. How do 59 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: you define failure? How do you declare a war is 60 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: over and ended, when fact Americans are still trapped behind 61 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: enemy leaves. We've got a lot of leverage. You don't 62 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: have any leverage against the Taliban and the idea, Well, 63 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: they're the sworn enemy of Isis. K Isis is the 64 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: sworn enemy of the Taliban. No, they're the ones that 65 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: let him the hell out of jail. Joe and the 66 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: idea when he started going into blaming Trump and then 67 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: started going into you know, for those that say that 68 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: we could have you know, done this in June, or 69 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: we could have done this in May or June, why 70 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: not we actually controlled cobble as the and this lie 71 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: that he said they already controlled fifty percent of the country. No, 72 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: they did not. That's why we do our time laps 73 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: map every night on half to show people this is 74 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: just total bs what he's saying. No nation has ever 75 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: done this. No, Americans don't leave fellow Americans behind enemy lines. Joe, No, 76 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: they don't. You know, there always was going to be 77 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: a crush of crowds. Well, why did you give him 78 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: for Graham Air Force Base? Because we had it, we 79 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: owned it, we built it, we paid for it. I 80 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: want to talk about the Trump deal The Trump deal 81 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: was not what you described because it was based one 82 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: if the Taliban didn't abide by every dotted eye and 83 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 1: cross tea and every comma in every period, he would 84 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: obliterate them, like he did Baghdaddy and associates and the 85 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 1: al Qaeda leader in Yemen, like he did to Solomani, 86 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: and like he did to the Caliphate that you and 87 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: Obama allowed to grow and grow and grow and never 88 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: lifted a finger. Trump's plan was to obliterate them if 89 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: they didn't abide by the agreement. So they guess what, 90 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: we didn't lose an American and eighteen months, thank you, 91 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump. Donald Trump's plan was based on conditions 92 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 1: on the ground. Donald Trump's plan was in perpetuity that 93 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 1: we would keep a Graham Air Force Base the Taliban agreement. 94 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: You know, it was my choice was to either keep 95 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,559 Speaker 1: the agreement that I inherited, or you didn't keep Donald 96 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: Trump's plan to secure our borders. You didn't keep his 97 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: plan to keep us energy independent. You didn't keep his 98 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: piece through strength plan on anything. And when are you 99 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: going to answer for the equipment the black Hawk helicopters 100 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: and planes two hundred and eight of them, and the 101 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: drones you left in the hands of the Taliban. When 102 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: are you going to answer for how we're gonna what 103 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: is the leverage we have? How do you anticipate getting 104 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: these Americans out? Why didn't you leave when you were 105 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: on with George Stephanopolos, you said we would stay until 106 00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 1: every American was out. You broke that promise to Joe. 107 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: So that was a lie that you told today. Trump 108 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: would obliterate them conditions based on the ground, would decide 109 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: if we're going to pull out, and when we're gonna 110 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: pull out, Keep a Graham Air Force Base, and make 111 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: sure that the Afghan army that you bragged so much 112 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: about a few weeks ago that it wouldn't collapse. It 113 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: was collapsing in April and in May and in June. 114 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: And when you had control of Cobbo, you could have 115 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: gotten not only every American out, but every Afghan ally out. 116 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: And you could have gotten our equipment back or given 117 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: it to the resistance in the north at least do 118 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: something like that. You know Trump's plan was to leave 119 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: or as it left me with two choices, a leave 120 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: of escalate no no, no, Joe. The choice was as 121 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: the Taliban was on the march. You could have obliterated 122 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: them in April, in May, in June and July, and 123 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: you chose not to. You know you're gonna and then 124 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 1: you're praising your Secretary of State Defense, the chair of 125 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: the Joint Chiefs. They should all be fired for this disaster. 126 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,239 Speaker 1: You're the only one that thinks this is a success, Joe, 127 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: because of Americans think you don't leave Americans behind, and 128 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: seventy one percent of Americans think you don't leave our 129 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: allies that partnered with us behind. You left them behind, 130 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: You abandon them unparalleled results. You've got to be kidding me. 131 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: Join me in grateful prayer, Grateful for what world's humiliation, 132 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: American weakness, you know, grateful prayer. We're gonna tell the 133 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: people caught behind enemy lines, but probably their only option 134 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: at this point is prayer, because you abandon them. So 135 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: those that say it should have started sooner, well, yeah, 136 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: you should have kept Air Force Base. According to the 137 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: Washington Post, apparently your buddies in the Taliban that you 138 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: trust so much even offered you to keep Cobble and 139 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: you turn them down. I'd love for you to explain 140 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: that one for me. I take responsibility for this decision. 141 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: Then you're responsible for all the Americans left behind enemy lines, 142 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: all of our Afghan allies that will die. You're responsible 143 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: for the thirteen men and men and women killed last week, 144 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: the twenty others that were injured last week. You're responsible 145 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: for all of it. You take responsibility for that decision. 146 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: You bet you own it. You did it, You abandoned them. 147 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: You're the one, Joe. Nobody else did that for you. 148 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: You did it all on your own. Why didn't you before? 149 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: You know? You asked at one point, what is our 150 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: vital national interests? I can answer that? Oh, oh, please 151 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: let me answer. To save every American caught behind them 152 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 1: enemy lines, Joe, to save our alli of the last 153 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: twenty years from what is certain death? Do you not 154 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: even read a newspaper? Isis K We're not done with 155 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: you yet, hey, Joe, I hate to tell you, they're 156 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,719 Speaker 1: not done with us yet. And yet they if they 157 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 1: get control of any American, the odds, I would argue, 158 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 1: are probably very high. I hope and pray to God 159 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: that I am wrong, but the odds are probably pretty high. 160 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: That isis k al Qaeda other terrorist groups are going 161 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: to take Americans hostage now we know what isis is 162 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: capable of. I've watched those online videos. I don't even 163 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: want to describe them for people that might be listening 164 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: with young children in their car. But if you think 165 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: about the worst murder on social media that you might 166 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: be able to conceive of, that's all possible now because 167 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: we abandoned the troops and you led the way. You know, 168 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: the assumptions were wrong. As you know, we didn't know 169 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: that they were gonna fall. Had what is this five 170 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: we have five point five five thousand, five hundred Americans 171 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: out of there? Well, why did you tell us we 172 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: had ten or fifteen thousand? Why can't you give us 173 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: the number of Americans caught behind enemy lines? You said 174 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: there was no deadline for getting Americans out, but yet 175 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: you've stuck to the artificial deadline, and it's artificial because 176 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: we're the United States of America and if every American 177 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: is not out, we're gonna stay as long as it 178 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: damn well takes and get them all out. So that 179 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 1: was your deadline, that wasn't We need not really care 180 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: what the Taliban's deadline is, had you shown them any 181 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: strength willingness to use force. Back in April, May, June, 182 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: and July. We never would have been in this situation. 183 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: We could have safely evacuated every American, every Afghan ally, 184 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: we could have safely taken our equipment back or destroyed it, 185 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 1: which I think is a bad idea. We should have 186 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: taken it back. Now now they have no leverage. You're 187 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: telling us we have one hundred countries now that are 188 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,679 Speaker 1: gonna join with us, and we're gonna we're gonna tell 189 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: the Taliban what to do. Sorry, Joe, I'll tell you 190 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 1: he's gonna have a lot more sway with the Taliban 191 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: that will be Isis al Qaeda and radical Islamic terrorists. 192 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: They will have a lot more sway than your hundred countries. 193 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: And don't think that China won't be helping them and 194 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: Russia won't be helping them, because they would do that too. Joe, 195 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: I've never ever ever, you know, for those that say 196 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: we should have started sooner, Yeah, you should have started 197 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: when you had control of Cobble and the Taliban. You 198 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: should have obliterated them when they only had twenty percent 199 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: of the country, forty percent of the country when they 200 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 1: were on their march to Cobble. You could have stopped it, 201 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: then you could have used that military might that you 202 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: were bragging about today, and you could have obliterated them. 203 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: What is our vital national interests? Well, to save our 204 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 1: fellow Americans caught behind terrorist enemy lines, there's there's our 205 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: vital national interests the people you abandon. You ever wonder 206 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: why Biden doesn't do nine time presses like every other pressident. 207 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: Why always the afternoon? Why is that interesting? Isn't it? 208 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: As a side note, we were ready when the army collapsed. 209 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 1: This is an extraordinary success. Unparallel results, the right decision, 210 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: the wise decision, the best decision, and I five point 211 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: five five thousand, five hundred americans kind of you told 212 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: us ten to fifteen thousand. We're the rest of them. 213 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 1: But there's my sources are telling me your estimate and 214 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: your administration's estimate. Three hundred maybe two fifty even that's it. 215 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: That's all the Americans we left behind. You still left 216 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 1: Americans behind. But I don't believe your numbers, and neither 217 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: of the people that I've talked to in the House 218 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: and the Senate, every one of my sources HiT's total bs. 219 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: And the worst part of it is nobody has an 220 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: exact number. We have leverage against the Taliban? What leverage? 221 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: What that You're going to now pay ransom? How about 222 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: the first bit of leverages you get our military equipment back. 223 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: Nobody seems to want to ask, why did you leave 224 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: the military equipment? You're so if this is your definition 225 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: of extraordinary success, how do you leave Americans behind and 226 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: say it's an extraordinary success with unparalleled results? How do 227 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: you say that with a straight face. The crusher crowds 228 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: would have happened under any circumstance. No, it could have 229 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: been a very orderly process. You could have identified every 230 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: American that was in Cobble and other parts of Afghanistan, 231 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: and you could have systematically worked to get them while 232 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: you have full control of not only the airport. So 233 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: it's great to have control of the airport, but it's 234 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: even more powerful to have control of the perimeter around 235 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: the airport, which fell into the hands of the Taliban. 236 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: The same Taliban that reports are were shooting guns in 237 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: the air intimidating Americans, turning them away, taking their passports. 238 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: The same people going door to door that are now 239 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: looking to identify Afghan allies so they can murder them. 240 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: Now that you're gone, which is going to happen too. 241 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: Here's your unparalleled result. You're right, that's unparalleled results. No, 242 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: it was the wrong decision. It was not the best decision, 243 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: and it was not even a wise decision, and it 244 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: was not by any definition of success. When you leave 245 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: Americans behind, isis is the sworn enemy of the Taliban? 246 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: Then why did they release them for jail? Why did 247 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: they release other terrorists from jail? And what are the 248 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: odds that Americans now trapped behind enemy lines are going 249 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: to fall into the hands of these brutal radical terrorists? 250 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: And what do you think the odds are that these 251 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: Americans left behind some of them are going to die, 252 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: if not all of them. What are the odds of that? 253 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: Why didn't you do it when you had the chance? 254 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: Why didn't you do it when you had the control. 255 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: I know it sounds strange, but they have a fighting 256 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: season reason Donald Trump picked me because it wasn't in 257 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: the fighting season. Donald Trump also said it was going 258 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: to be conditions based. Conditions on the ground would dictate 259 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: if they did it. At the time, it was Donald 260 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: Trump's plan was under the threat of the he'd obliterate 261 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: them and he would and keeping Bagram Air Force Base open. 262 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: We'll get some military experts next twenty five till the 263 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: top of the hour, or Biden. We got the mean Biden. 264 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,920 Speaker 1: You go, you'd be tough, Joey. You go out there, 265 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: you you yell at the American people, you lecture them. 266 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: You know, on top of it, he's just lying through 267 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: his teeth and delusional. On top of it. An extraordinary success, 268 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 1: unparalleled results, he said, Uh huh. It was the right decision, 269 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: the wise decision, the best decision. We were We were 270 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 1: always going to face, you know, a crush of people, 271 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: a crush of crowds. Hmm. I have questions. When you 272 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: had control of Cobble and the Taliban was not on 273 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: the March taking large geographical areas of Afghanistan starting in March, 274 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: then April, then May, then June or July, why didn't 275 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,120 Speaker 1: you stop him then, because that's what the Trump plan 276 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 1: called for. Why did you wait till they took Cobble 277 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: before you decided? A couple of days Cobble falls. All right, 278 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: I guess I'll have to go give a little speech 279 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: on this, all right, write it up quick, and then 280 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: I'll go right back to cam David as Tony Blinkol 281 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: was hanging out in the Hampton's with the rich and famous. 282 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: Why didn't you do with that? Why didn't you make 283 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: any contingency plan to get out when we controlled Cobble 284 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: in a far more organized fashion that wouldn't leave Americans behind. 285 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: How do you say the war is over it's ended? No, 286 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 1: it's not. It's not over until every American is home safely. 287 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: The Americans you now left behind enemy lines, the Americans 288 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 1: that you put at risk because you didn't have control 289 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: of the perimeter around Cobble Airport or Karzai International Airport. 290 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: Trump plan was to obliterate the Taliban if they ever 291 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: went on the march, and they never did. Not a 292 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: single American died over his last year as president. More 293 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: than that, it was conditions on the ground based he 294 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: was keeping Begram Air Force Base that we built. Why'd 295 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: you leave the equipment? Joe? Is that a great You're 296 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: gonna say that is a great success, an extraordinary success. 297 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: Maybe it's unparalleled in terms of the results. Was that 298 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: the right decision, Joe, the wise decision, the best decision? 299 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: That is that? How you define an extraordinary success arming 300 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 1: our enemies? And why did you say, we got five thousand, 301 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 1: five hundred Americans out, when last week you're telling us 302 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 1: ten to fifteen thousand you thought were there? Where are 303 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: the other people? How come you don't know the exact 304 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: number of Americans now caught behind enemy lines that you abandoned. 305 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: How is that possible? You take responsibility for the decision, 306 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: You're responsible for every American that you abandoned behind enemy lines. 307 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: I'll agree with that part of it. You know we 308 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 1: got been laden eleven years ago. Yeah, we got Bilan, 309 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: not with your support. You were the one guy in 310 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 1: the room that said no, who was it? Robert Gates, 311 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 1: former Defense Secretary. There's never been one person wrong on 312 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: every single foreign policy decision the over the last forty years. 313 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 1: You know, blames the you know, praises the Secretary of State, Defense, 314 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 1: Joint chiefs. I'm not gonna have a forever war. Sure, 315 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: we're grateful for the those that lost their lives. Grateful 316 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 1: they didn't need to lose their lives. We didn't have 317 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: the Taliban releasing all these criminals that were in jail, 318 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,679 Speaker 1: we wouldn't have had the chaos at the airport. And 319 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 1: for you to say with certainty, yeah, there would have 320 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: been chaos under any condition. A crush of crowds under 321 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 1: any condition is a lie. Isis the sworn enemy of 322 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 1: the Taliban. They're both terrorists. Joe, can we get rid 323 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 1: of the lie that the Halaban is not a terrorist organization? 324 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: Because that's a lie? And we had a contingency, we 325 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: were ready when in fact, the Afghan army you know 326 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 1: when they collapsed. No, you weren't ready because they were 327 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: collapsing in April, May, June, July, and you didn't lift 328 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: a finger to say, oh, they're collapsing. Let's get our 329 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: people out now, Let's identify every American there. Now, Let's 330 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: make sure we get all our Afghan allies out. Now, 331 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:35,120 Speaker 1: let's get our military equipment out now. Could have done 332 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: it then, Joe, in an orderly fashion. Didn't have to happen. 333 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: Former Brigadier General Don Bulldock Is with US served almost 334 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: six years in Afghanistan as Special Ops commander. Did ten 335 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: tours of duty in Afghanistan after nine eleven, received five 336 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: Bronze Stars two Purple Hearts. He retired in twenty seventeen. 337 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: He's now running for the Senate New Hampshire. By the way, 338 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: ninety retired generals and admirals are now calling for accountability 339 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: in the military for this disaster of a withdrawal or surrender, 340 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: depending on what term you prefer. Dozens of retired generals 341 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 1: admirals have called on the Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, Chairman 342 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: of the Joint Chiefs Mark Milly, to step down, accusing 343 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: them of negligence in connection with this disastrous troop withdrawal 344 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: from Afghanistan. They claim membership and a group called the 345 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: Flag Officers for America. They said that Millie Austin should 346 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: have recommended against this dangerous withdrawal in the strongest possible terms. 347 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 1: I am told by numerous sources that our intelligence agencies 348 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: were warning, screaming bloody murder, not to do this. CIA 349 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: pulled out of their six seven weeks ago. As I've 350 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: been telling you, other groups were pulling their people out 351 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:03,719 Speaker 1: also because they set They were telling them almost daily, 352 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: this is gonna happen anyway. General, former Brigadier General Don 353 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: bullduck Well, is this an extraordinary success with unparalleled results 354 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 1: and the right decision? Why is decision? Best decision is? 355 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: Do you agree with that assessment of the president? Because 356 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: I don't. I did not Sir, I don't not agree 357 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: with it at all. It's a national disgrace. There was 358 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 1: the right way to do this, and they picked the 359 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: wrong way, and there was no humility, no reflection, no 360 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: honest assessment, zero assessment in his speech. He should have 361 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: come clean with the Americans, American people, and then he 362 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: should have said, this is how we're going to fix it. 363 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: We've clearly done this wrong. I still remain hopeful, we'll 364 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: not even hopeful. It's just not too late to admit, 365 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 1: to make a mistake, take accountability for that. Move forward. 366 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: He was told you got to go out and look tough. Joey, Joey, 367 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: you gotta be tough today, and he started he was yelling, lecturing, 368 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: lying and delusional. So, well, that's not going to happen. 369 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: So we have Americans now behind enemy lines. General I 370 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 1: say we go get them. I say, we go in there, 371 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: we destroy the Taliban, we destroy Isis and al Kaeda. 372 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: We've done it before. We take them out and we 373 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: re establish our dominance. There we send a message to 374 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: the entire world that this will not stand. This is 375 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: against our character, it's against our integrity, our values, and 376 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: our principles. And we cannot tolerate this. Unfortunately, we have 377 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: lions being led by Lambs and this will not happen. 378 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: Nobody will stand up and throw their rank on the 379 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 1: table and say this is what happened, this is why 380 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: it happened. This was completely wrong, I believe in retrospect 381 00:24:54,560 --> 00:25:00,719 Speaker 1: now looking back, we lost thirteen Americans and wounded many others, 382 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: killed Afghans for absolutely no reason. Uh there was it 383 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: was avoidable. And those will argue with me, and others 384 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: will try and blame the political side. Well, I blame 385 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: both sides, the military, the political, and the diplomatic. They 386 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: were all wrong, sir. And it's now time to go 387 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: in and assert our strength and make this right because 388 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: it cannot stand. Sir. And I say this with all 389 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: due respect. I agree with you, but we both know 390 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: that's not going to happen. We've we've now, we've already 391 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: abandoned our fellow Americans behind enemy lines. They're now hostages 392 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: the whims of the talaman isis K and every other 393 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: and now the Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan will now be 394 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: a safe haven once again for radical extremist, radical Islamic 395 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: extremist groups to build and plot and plan and scheme 396 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: their next It's the tack on our homeland, Isn't that 397 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: the more likely outcome? That is the most that that's 398 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 1: is what's going to happen. And it's worse than that. 399 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: It is our you know, I've been contacted by men 400 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: and women that I served with, serving in other places 401 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: in the world, who have been told by their counterparts 402 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: they can't trust America. Right now, we exist in small 403 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: teams in special ops. Um. You know, with the permission 404 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: of our partners and the the idea that they're going 405 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: to work with us and protect us as much as 406 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: we're going to work with them. Now, the actions of 407 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: our leaders in this country have put our entire military 408 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 1: wherever they're at on the ground in danger inside and 409 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: outside of Afghanistan. We've weakened the region. Uh. And we 410 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,679 Speaker 1: have opened the door for China and Russia to do 411 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: whatever they want in Asia and in Europe. Uh. And 412 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: and that you know, the way you couch it is 413 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: exactly what's going to happen, but it has geopolitical worldwide. Uh. 414 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: You know, uh, negative effects. It's going to be bad 415 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 1: all the way around. How do you not plan on 416 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: removing or at least destroying all the military equipment we 417 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: left behind, drones and black Hawk helicopters and aircraft and 418 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 1: everything in between. Um, you know who's going to fact 419 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 1: check the fact checker. However, many billions of dollars worth 420 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: of equipment, we left it in the hands of the Taliban, 421 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: and they're now parading around and putting out mocking videos 422 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: of them wearing, using holding flying American gear. Exactly another 423 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: insult to Americans and other insult that the entire world 424 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 1: is seeing, and you know, a complete failure. You know, 425 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 1: imagine if we hadn't changed, you know, using his words today, 426 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: the big imagine, you know, imagine if we did not 427 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 1: change our strategy in twenty fourteen, think there wouldn't be 428 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: a Taliban alcade and ISIS but we did. Imagine if 429 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: we had kept the ct Force air support there to 430 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: protect our Afghan partners and secured the appropriate air basis, 431 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,959 Speaker 1: we wouldn't be in this problem. Imagine if we planned 432 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 1: a deliberate evacuation instead of a crisis evacuation based on 433 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: poor strategy and operational approach and tactics. Imagine if the 434 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: Taliban alcade and ISIS were still we were still able 435 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: to target them and take them out, and if they 436 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: did group up in bunches, they would die in bunches. 437 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: Imagine if we kept faith with our allies. Imagine if 438 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: we kept faith with our American citizens and said we're 439 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: not leaving until everybody is out. We left our dogs behind. 440 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: We had to rely on a volunteer organization to take 441 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: our military dogs out. That's a that's a disgrace in 442 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: and of itself. And finally, imagine if our military leaders, 443 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: recognizing that this was a strategic, operational, and tactical disaster, 444 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: stood up and said no, not, hell no, we're not 445 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: putting our people in this kind of position. We got 446 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: to have the right resources. We're going to do this 447 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: the right way. In hell no, we're not going to 448 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: let the Taliban, al Qaeda and ISIS take that country over. 449 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: Not going to happen. That's what should have been done. 450 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: That was not done, and we're here and unfortunately, the scenario, sir, 451 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: that you articulated is exactly what's going to happen, and 452 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: it's going to be affecting the entire world. Well, let's 453 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: we already see it affecting the entire world. We see 454 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: how we've emboldened our enemies. We see that, you know, 455 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: China is now talking about reunification with Taiwan, there lecturing 456 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: us that we can't even land aircraft in Taiwan without 457 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 1: their permission, the lecturing American Tony blinkin an Anchorage, Alaska, 458 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: of all things, the country that brought us COVID, the 459 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: world COVID on human rights. When Jennis Side is taking 460 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: place this very day within China, then we're given waivers 461 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: for Putin to build this pipeline while while firing Americans 462 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: working on the Keystone XL pipeline. You know, Joe Biden says, oh, 463 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 1: I inherited, well, he also inherited secure borders, and he 464 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 1: ruined that, he also inherited energy independence, and he ruined 465 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: that he also inherited a growing economy, and he ruined 466 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: that too. So I don't really think that you know, 467 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: Joe Biden as much of anything to you know, any 468 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: leg to stand on here. And the worst part is 469 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: even told George Stephanopolis what two weeks ago, maybe less 470 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: than two weeks ago, that we wouldn't leave a single 471 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: American behind. That's not the America that I know general, 472 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,479 Speaker 1: That is not the America that I know. It's not 473 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 1: the America I know either, sir, and it's not consistent 474 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: with the service members, and you know in their creed. 475 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: Either happened at the highest levels and unfortunately it affected 476 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: us all. But this was a long time in coming 477 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: in terms of exposing these bad leaders. And you know, 478 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: I believe in God, and I believe God has shown 479 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: a light now on the leadership in the American government, political, diplomatic, 480 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: and military, and it's up to us to do something 481 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: about it. And we've got to change what goes on. 482 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: We have to get the right people in office. We 483 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: have to stop supporting career politician and legacy name politicians 484 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: and all these guys that go down there that have 485 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,719 Speaker 1: no experience that won't stand up. You know, we've had 486 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: a few people in Congress standing up, but the entire 487 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: Congress should have gone into special session immediately and said 488 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: enough is enough. But they didn't because they don't care. 489 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: They're just letting the guy do whatever he wants and 490 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: he's not competent to do it, and the people around 491 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: him aren't competent enough or not don't have enough cahonies 492 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,239 Speaker 1: to stand up and tell him you're wrong. And we 493 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: can't do this, and we're not going to do it. 494 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's there was a lot of ways 495 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: out of this, and they took none except to take 496 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: a knee and face out. And we had a lieutenant 497 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: Colonel Scheller come up and say the right thing. But 498 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: you know, look what happened to him, right, they fire him. 499 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: They should have never done that. So the leadership in 500 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: this country, however it's been made, and however it got 501 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: to this point, we need a different design, we need 502 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: a different ideas, and we need different people. And until 503 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: we do that, forget about it. You know, blame Donald Trump. 504 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: He had the economy going right, he had to safety 505 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: and security of Americans. He would have obliterated them the 506 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: first time they moved. I mean, it wouldn't have been 507 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: a tough decision.

It 520 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: wasn't ready for anything. If this is how you define 521 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: something as an extraordinary success, how do you define failure? 522 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: Because this is a failure.
