Now, 25 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: before we get into how things stand as of today 26 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 1: with the Afghanistan crisis, let me rewind it a little 27 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: bit to talk about when President Joe Biden was asked 28 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: if the Taliban was going to take over Afghanistan on 29 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: July two thousand twenty one. That's right, July eight, which 30 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: means just last month, two thousand one. When he was asked, Hey, 31 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: President Joe Biden, with a Taliban take over Afghanistan. Here's 32 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: what he had to say, Afghanistan is now inevitable. It 33 00:01:55,520 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: is because you have the Afghan troops at three hundred thousand, 34 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: well equipped as well as clip as any army in 35 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 1: the world, and an air force against something like seventy 36 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: five thousand Taliban. It is not an emt, Mr President, 37 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Your own intelligence community has a 38 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: says that the Afghan government will likely collapse. That's not true, 39 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: is it. Can you please clarify what they've told you 40 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: about whether that will happen or not. That is not true. 41 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: They did not rest that conclusion So what is the 42 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: level of confidence that they had and it will not 43 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: collapse the Afghan government. The leadership has to come together. 44 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: They clearly have the capacity to sustain the government in place. 45 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: And do you see any parallels between this withdrawal and 46 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: what happened to Vietnamalis some people feeling zero what you 47 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: had is yet entire But gates breaking through the gates 48 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: of our embassy six are not mistaken. The Taliban is 49 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: not the south of the North Vietnamese Army. They're not. 50 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: They're not remotely comfortable in terms of capability. There's gonna 51 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: be no circumstances. You see people being lifted off the 52 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:22,679 Speaker 1: roof of a embassy of the United States from Afghanistan. 53 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: It is not at all comfortable. So the question now 54 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: is where did they go from here? That the jury 55 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: is still out, but the likelihood there was going to 56 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country, 57 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: it is highly unlikely. Well, guess what, the jury is 58 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: no longer out, President Biden, And guess what. We actually 59 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: did see people running up on the embassy. We actually 60 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: did see people clinging the planes. We actually did see 61 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: the Taliban takeover. They actually did have the capacity to 62 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: take over. So it looks like somebody underestimated somebody, and 63 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: it looks like that somebody used the United States government, 64 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: the intelligence, the CIA, the army, President Biden, you name it, 65 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: all of them underestimated the Taliban's capacity, their capability, their 66 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: strength as a unit. And basically this week was a disaster. 67 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: Now everyone agrees that we should have gotten out of Afghanistan, 68 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: that's not even the issue. A lot of folks say, oh, 69 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 1: we needed to get out, that's not the issue. There's 70 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: the issue of if we get out. Well, first, let's 71 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: back up. There was actually an issue of should we 72 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: ever go. Shout out to black woman Representative Barbara Lee 73 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: that told them not to go in the first place, 74 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: the only sitting congress person that voted against Afghanistan. Just 75 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: as a point of reference, she told us not to 76 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: even go. She told you all not to even go 77 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: when you win. Anyway, So if we need to go, 78 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 1: that was that was twenty years ago. That was already decided. 79 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: The how long we need to stay? Okay, that was decided. 80 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: It's time to get out. People had no issue about 81 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: getting out. The question was how, And pretty much that 82 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: was a debacle. This week. Let's just be honest about it, 83 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: no matter how how much you love President Biden. And 84 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: I get it. I know y'all love President Biden, Uncle Joe, 85 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: I get it. But the bottom line is it was 86 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: a debacle this week. But the media thought it was 87 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: very interesting. You had some people in the media saying, oh, 88 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 1: you know, hey, he got out. But President Biden came 89 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: out and did a speech and said, hey, you know what, 90 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: he took ownership. He said, it is what it is. 91 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: I got out. I said what I said, it is 92 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: what it is. And that's on period. That's pretty much 93 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: President Joe Biden's attitude. A lot of folks said, oh, 94 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 1: that's great. That's much better than what President Trump, former 95 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: President Trump could ever have done. He doesn't take responsibility. 96 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: He passes the buck. President Biden said, the buck stops 97 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: with me. So there was a part of the media, 98 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: a part of social media, the social media world, which 99 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: is non existent, by the way, it's not real life, 100 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: but you know, that's what we have to look at. 101 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 1: The social media world said, oh, President Biden did such 102 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 1: a great job taking responsibility. And then there was another 103 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: part of the media, not just conservatives. There were some 104 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 1: Democrats as well. They said, no, this is not the 105 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: Uncle Joe that we know. This is not the Joe 106 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: Biden that we know. Is that shows empathy towards the 107 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: American citizens and our allies. This is not who we 108 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: are as Americans, which always find hilarious because apparently they 109 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: don't know the same American history that black folks do. 110 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: But anyway, and that's for another episode, but he did 111 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: not show empathy towards the American citizens that were actually 112 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,840 Speaker 1: still left there. Uh, the folks that were climbing on 113 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: the planes. Uh, you saw clips over and over with 114 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: c and n of a couple of folks that actually 115 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 1: died from hanging from the planes. One of them was 116 00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: a teenager, very very sad story. And President Biden really 117 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: had no empathy when he came out. In fact, CIA 118 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: analysts Matt Zeller went off and said that you know, 119 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: you guys clearly can't be watching the same thing that 120 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: I'm watching, because this is a disgrace and I don't 121 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: see the same President Biden that you guys are claiming 122 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: did such a good job. Let's take a listen on 123 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: what he had to say. So I'm curious to hear 124 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: your reaction of this consequential speech by the American president 125 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: didn't run from it. He owned it. He owned his decision, 126 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: He owned the fact that, as he put it, the 127 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: buck stops with him. I hope he gets an under 128 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: death too. I don't know. I feel like I watched 129 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 1: a different speech than the rest of you guys. I 130 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: was appalled. There is such a profound, bold faced line 131 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: in that speech, the idea that we planned for every contingency. 132 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,239 Speaker 1: I have been personally trying to tell this administration since 133 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: it took office. I've been trying to tell our government 134 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: for years that this was coming. We sent them plan 135 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: after plan on how to evacuate these people. Nobody listened 136 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: to us. They didn't plan for the evacuation of our 137 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: afteran wartime allies. They're trying to conduct it now at 138 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: the eleventh hour. The thing that they were most concerned 139 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: about was the optics of the chaotic evacuation. Well, they 140 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: got exactly what they were most concerned of by failing 141 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: to do what was right when we could have done it. 142 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: We had all the people in equipment in place to 143 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: be able to save these people months ago, and we 144 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: did nothing. I'm appalled that he thinks so we only 145 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: need to take two thousand people. There's eighties six thousand 146 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: people who are currently left behind in Afghanistan alone. We've 147 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: identified all of them for the government. I have no 148 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: idea why they He claims that people don't want to 149 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: leave Afghanistan. I have a list of fourteen thousand names 150 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: right now of people who want to get out of Afghanistan. 151 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: And the idea that the Afghan military should be blamed 152 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: for this. Do you know how many casualties the Afghan 153 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: military took in an average year, more than the United 154 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: States did in twenty When you're not getting paid on 155 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: a regular basis, when you're not getting fuel, when no 156 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: one is applying you with ammunition, and yet you're still 157 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: showing up to the fight. How fear us for having 158 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: to blame these people for not having the audacity and 159 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: deal to survive atal ban on spot? No, But we 160 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: need to be doing right now, and when I am 161 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: appault that the president didn't say, which we need to 162 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: be talking about how we're going to get every single 163 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 1: one of these people out. Well, y'all heard that, And 164 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: that was on MSNBC, liberal network that normally covers a 165 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: liberal point of view. How the MSNBC. Folks on Twitter 166 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,719 Speaker 1: didn't really like that. They kind of want people to 167 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: ride with Biden no matter what. It's kind of interesting. 168 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 1: You can go to my Instagram. I posted how MSNBC 169 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: and CNN was trending this week, and it was trending 170 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: for two different reasons, one saying you're not holding Biden accountable. 171 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: The other was saying, oh, you're beating Biding up. So 172 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 1: Twitter can't seem to make up as a world per usual, 173 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: which again is why Twitter is not the real world. 174 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 1: But I thought that was very interesting looking at those 175 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: two topics trend and kind of you know, compete with 176 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 1: each other. But the bottom line is we can all 177 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: agree that this is a big man. Us certainly took 178 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: us off a lot of domestic issues that I want 179 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: to talk about. I'll say that for another episode, such 180 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: as the Texas Democrats, the three Democrats that sold out, 181 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: the other Democrats that went back to the House of Representatives. 182 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: If you get a chance to go to my Instagram 183 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 1: and check out my commentary on that. Uh. And then 184 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: again where we are revoting rights, uh, George Lord, Justice 185 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: and Policing Act, and so many other issues that really 186 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: already we're not getting the coverage that it needs, and 187 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: certainly was put on paulse this week with this international 188 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: crisis moving on. My take on these guys is I 189 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: believe that the Talibana will be retaliating towards the US soon. 190 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: This is not me wishing anything on America. This is 191 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: not me being negative. It's just being real. I know 192 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: a little bit of something about gang banging one on one, 193 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: and one thing I know for sure is is that 194 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: you if you go take over somebody's hood for twenty 195 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: years US and think that once they get back in 196 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 1: control that nothing happens, not gonna happen. The Rolling sixties 197 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 1: are still riding hard for nimp. So if you think 198 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: that the Taliban just gonna sit back and there's no 199 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:19,599 Speaker 1: retaliation whatsoever, not gonna happen. So I'll save that breakdown 200 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: for another episode. But in the meantime, make sure you 201 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: keep your head on the swivel. As we approached the 202 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: twenty year anniversary of nine eleven now in regards to 203 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: what is next for the US and the Afghanistan crisis, Hey, 204 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: what's done is done. We can't go back in time. 205 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: We can't go back twenty years ago and make you guys, 206 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: listen to Congresswoman Barbara Lee. You probably wouldn't listen anyway 207 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: because y'all say'all love black women. But then again, at 208 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 1: the same time, you love us, but you don't love 209 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: us enough to listen. But that's a whole another conversation. 210 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: So we can't go back in twenty years from twenty 211 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: years from now. We also can't change what happened last 212 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 1: week on how we pulled the plug. All we can 213 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: do now is clean up. So as it stands, there 214 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 1: are loading planes free hour on the hour removing you 215 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: as citizens and allies out of Afghanistan. They'll be doing 216 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: that until the end of August. As far as how 217 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: it stands now, there's still a lot of issues with 218 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: who can get on those planes because there is a 219 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: backlog of paperwork from those who desire to become you 220 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: as citizens. So, like I said, this is a lot. 221 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: You can't really break down foreign policy in twenty or 222 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: twenty five minutes like I did, but I hope I 223 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: gave you enough to chew on to kind of give 224 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: you some direction.
