Are me eyes deceiving me or are CNN and NBC acting like their hair is on fire over this and Fox is kinda nonchalant about it?

Also, BDK is slipping. I need a clip of Blinken saying that Afghanistan won't fall from a Friday to a Monday. You just can't make up the soundbites that Biden and Blinken dropped in the weeks leading up to this unmitigated Biden disaster.

They began about 18 months ago when Trump signed that deal with the terrorists...I mean Taliban.

If Biden saw the deal was bad when he came in, he should've renegotiated. He failed us. Biden bad. BAD! No excuses. :ohno:

I wonder if systemic racism or climate change can be blamed for the fall of afganistan.

Sorry to buzzkill my own post, but I just realized the pic on the left has a fourth landing gear, so not a Phrog. I knew the Corps had officially completed the transition to the Osprey, but thought they might have kept a few 46's around.

But nope, I guess that's a Chinook

You know it's bad when the same press that covered for Biden* hiding during the campaign is now calling him out. Wonder if the press will stick to the pre-planned questions in the presser later. :popcorn:

Over/under on somebody asking a tough question and getting called a dog faced pony soldier?

Or blames the IC? (That would be very dumb because the IC has the receipts)

Who am I kidding? He’ll probably just make a statement and not take questions. At this point, if he does anything other than that his chief of staff should be sacked

It didn’t fall. It was given back to its rightful owners.

Right? Joe - the problem isn't the US leaving. We're fine with that. We aren't ok with the botched exit which has endangered thousands of people. If the deal to get out by May 1 wasn't going to be achieved...then renegotiate that deal. :ohno:

Nothing from Biden about getting the evacuation done right. Plenty of red herrings about avoiding future troop buildups and nation-building. Of course, he took no questions.
