If you think this is bad, just wait until the Taliban are able to roll-in some of the hardware we left them at Bagram.

The link above IS Twitter, and no the link above does not show anyone from CNN.

Now if you have a different link, then please provide it.

I look for them to open the old soccer stadium up as a venue for the beheadings.
In this crazy world it wouldn’t surprise me if the Taliban took a humanitarian approach to make the US look bad.
Who knows?

Is this the ‘red tape’ W was yammering about for Biden to cut this morning? Of course that’s what they’re doing.

Why isn’t the whole place swarming with marines?

Actually it does show someone from CNN. She is the one saying that the Taliban are chanting Death to America, but they seem friendly.

I expect them to round people up for execution.

Tucker Carlson last night was saying how the Obama administration set up a Master of Arts Women and Gender Studies program at the University of Kabul.

I imagine the Taliban will go to the university and demand to see a list of all the professors and students who took those classes.

A worthless degree now becomes deadly...

10 years, thousands of US servicemen deaths, billions of dollars.... and Joke Biden gives it back to the radicals.

Reality is that MSM would keep this a secret. Makes the pedident look bad.

I sadly believe we will see a lot of that.

In a place like AF, there’s not a big surplus of food to feed a bunch of folks in camps. So, ‘re-education’ for the masses is out. There must be another, quicker solution to the unrest that is bound to come.

You must keep the grass cut short to avoid any weeds popping up.
