The US Ambassador to Afghanistan and some of his staff were seen fleeing their Kabul workplace Sunday, as the Pentagon increased the number of troops deployed in the region from 1,000 to 6,000. Ambassador Ross Wilson were both seen arriving at Kabul airport, as other Americans still in the country were ordered to shelter in place, after shots were fired at the city's airport.
Late Sunday night, the State Department announced all personnel had been evacuated from the US Embassy in Kabul and were at the airport.'We can confirm that the safe evacuation of all Embassy personnel is now complete.
Looks like the dogs were all safely evacuated. At least we did one thing right in all of the debacle.

Viewing all the pictures the fraud Mr. Applesauce for Brains doesn't have a clue what is happening. Fraud Biden 'put a lid on it' while sleeping peacefully. People fearing death scramble to leave Afghanistan thanking brainless Biden for this disaster.
Saigon 1975 all over again.

Announce the timetable for leaving, pull out the troops, then leave equipment and civilians to be taken care of last. You have to work to be this stupid.

How could our intelligence agencies been so incompetent regarding the strength of the Taliban? These agencies include the Central Intelligence Agency, Defense Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency, and Department of Defense. They have huge budgets and tens of thousands employees. Have they all become fat, dumb and happy? Where have they been? Will anyone be held responsible? Probably not. This Afghanistan withdrawal debacle raises more questions about trusting our federal government. It's bloated and filled with lazy, incompetent employees who work as little as possible, and is protected by absurd rules that promote and facilitate irresponsibility. Is it possible that Russia and China have noticed?

"Sudden collapse?" Sudden Collapse?" Excuse me, oh exalted ones, who exactly couldn't read the tea leaves predicting this very occurrence? Even I, with my limited internet searches and news sites, concluded this exact scenario! (I'm thinking most informed Americans could as well.) What about Americans other than embassy staff (the elites, I'm told)? So sorry, no dice??? And the Afghanis who helped/collaborated with us??? too bad, sooo sad??? We'll be back to pick you up? When. . .soon. . .how soon. . .very soon???
Biden lies/d. Americans died/will die. . .a pox on their houses. Bah.

Some of them may have preferred a rooftop exit, from the looks of things.

I hope Japan, Russia, China and Saudi Arabia can keep all the refugees they'll be getting nice and comfy.

Well, at least it didn't become another Benghazi at our embassy. The images in the video are gut-wrenching. Biden you cheater, you own this humanitarian disaster.

The fall of Syria drove many thousands into Europe, compromising it's culture, heritage and order, to facilitate the dissolution of European civilization. And now there will be a flood of unassimilable Afghans, performing the same degradation of the USA. All according to the long range plan...and driven by obama.

Gen. Milley Vanilley at the Kabul airport - - - -
"OK, let's have some order here. All of you Afghans line up according to your last name. What? You don't have last names? OK, then - - everybody line up according to your height. Short people over here - - tall guys over there. Now - - my first question - - does anyone need a sex-change operation? . . . . . . "

The United States military has tremendous resources, awesome jet aircraft and other state-of-the-art high tech weapons, including satellite technology. Space force reportedly has unbelievable precision weapons that are beyond our imagination. We also have the greatest special forces groups in the world. If Biden's handlers really wanted to crush the Taliban, they could do it in a heartbeat. But maybe they don't want to. The Marxists love chaos and division. It helps to advance their agenda/
It reminds me of Black Hawk down and Benghazi. Leftists in charge who are happy to sit on their hands and let Americans die. If Trump was president, the Taliban would still be cowering in their caves.

If they evacuated the "working staff" then they must have left most of the employees behind.

If we had not given up Bagram Air Base already all the evacuees could have been sheltered there until departure. And I assume the runways would not be full of Afghans chasing after the planes. Total fuster cluck.

To the 50 million voters, vote manipulators, inexperienced internal surveillance gestspo and woke military that put in Biden's voices in his hearing aids. The rapid disintegration and atrocities are on all of you!

Say what you will, but Daily Mail always produces the photography that I want to see.
I don't trust the written word, but live pictures usually tell the story.
Having said that, this is the "look over here" event produced to distract us from the election audits.
Keep your eye on the prize.

So now they’re all stuck at the airport which, no doubt, looks like a target rich environment to the Taliban. If the Taliban refrains from taking out the airport, the only reason will be that they might need it for themselves. But they don’t need the people inside it or around it. Our embassy staff are sitting ducks.
