President Joe Biden snapped at a reporter who tried to ask him about security at Kabul airport on Sunday after spending much of the day paying tribute to 13 fallen service members killed in Afghanistan.He is under intense pressure to defend his handling of the rapid withdrawal of U.S. forces after 20 years of conflict.And it showed later in the day after returning to Washington, D.C., where he delivered a pep talk to staff at the Federal Emergency Management Agency as Hurricane Ida battered Louisiana.'I'm not supposed to take any questions, but go ahead,'
Sorry, OP. I posted a similar one before seeing yours. Apologies.

There is no defense of the way we withdrew from Afghanistan. It was unorganized, without contingencies in place, almost to maximize the confusion and minimize the execution. It is unfathomable that no one in any of these meetings leading up to this said “Hey, what should we do about those helicopters, humvees, weapons, munitions and equipment. We can’t just leave that stuff there for the Taliban can we?” And if no one did ask that question, they all should be charged with mutiny or treason. Not too mention murder.

This was done so poorly, to my mind, the only explanation is that it was deliberate.
Nothing else makes sense.
The only question is: Why?

When a hurricane bigger than Katrina brings up the easy questions you gotta know the Democrats (behind "president" Joe) are up to their eyeballs in nasty stuff.

We recently took care of my 82 year old sister in law, to give her son a break. Sister in law has 'moderate' dementia.
She has lost her sense of time, and place, but worse than that, she is showing signs of paranoia.
She says things like, 'don't tell them I told you' or 'we better not do that.'
I'm seeing something like that in Dementia Jo's remarks. And he is doing it more often than not.

Biden will not answer questions about Afghanistan until after August 31 when he will claim that with his new battlefield partner, the Taliban, he ended the Afghan War, and that he (really the US military) successfully repatriated over five thousand US citizens and over a hundred thousand Afghan “refugees” to the USA. While some of those Afghans rendered substantial assistance to the US military in Afghanistan it looks like a lot of the Afghans who Biden is transporting to the USA did not, are unidentified, and have not been vetted.
Biden will completely ignore the facts that the Taliban killed and wounded thousands of US troops, gave al Qaeda sanctuary in Afghanistan after the 9/11 attacks where al Qaeda killed over 3,000 innocent Americans, and are Islamist terrorists who have not given up their quest to turn the entire world, including the USA, into Islamic caliphates under Islamic Sharia law that is contrary to the basic tenets of the US Constitution. Remember while the different Afghan militant groups may be enemies as they fight among themselves all over Afghanistan, using all sorts of names to identity their particular group, that when you get to the bottom line, they are all Islamist terrorist groups who would kill Americans at the drop of a hat!
