Marine Nicole Gee sent a series of texts to her sister before deploying to Afghanistan telling her not to worry - and saying she hoped the mission would be ‘successful and safe.’ Nicole, 23, was one of 13 service members – and one of two female Marines - who died in a suicide blast at Kabul Airport Thursday alongside 170 desperate Afghans seeking to leave their beleaguered country. Speaking in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, her older sister Misty Fuoco, 25, of Citrus Heights, California, said her sister would text her regularly from Kabul to tell her how ‘amazing’ her

No, it is not Joe Biden who has the blood of these brave military people on his hands because he is barely aware of his own role in the tragedy but it is the faceless puppet masters such as Dr Jill who are pulling his strings who bear the moral responsibility. It is these people who need to be exposed and stopped “by any means necessary.”

Uzbekistan is warning the U.S. that Afghan pilots trained by American forces who fled to the Central Asian country after the Taliban took over in Afghanistan may face expulsion. Hundreds of Afghan service members fled to Uzbekistan aboard dozens of U.S.-supplied planes and helicopters, along with families and colleagues, after the Taliban seized control of the capital city of Kabul earlier this month. Uzbekistan, however, is now urging the U.S. to extract those Afghan pilots to a different country to avoid clashes between them and the Taliban, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing officials. Uzbekistan has continued relations with the

WASHINGTON – U.S. forces in Afghanistan are engaged in a fast-paced final drawdown of military forces and evacuation of civilians as America withdraws from its longest war. Biden administration officials have repeatedly said the U.S. will fully leave Afghanistan by the Aug. 31 deadline. As of 3:30 p.m. EDT, it is midnight Aug. 31 in Afghanistan, leaving the American military 24 hours to exit.
 “Obviously, we are reaching the end of our prescribed mission,” Army Maj. Gen. Hank Taylor told reporters on Monday at the Pentagon. Many details of the American withdrawal from the country are being concealed due to

 There was some discussion on Twitter recently about whether President Joe Biden nodded off during an Oval Office meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett. After the talk spread, some journalists, like CNN factchecker Daniel Dale, pushed back. "This 'Biden asleep' stuff is nonsense ," Dale tweeted on Saturday. But here's the thing. Watch Biden's public appearance with Bennett on this C-Span video .

A Washington Post column published Sunday was slammed by critics for blaming the ongoing crisis in Afghanistan on the American people, rather than the actual perpetrators of the violence unfolding across the war-torn country. "If you ask me who is to blame, I would point not only to Biden but to former president Donald Trump — and to all of us, the people of America. By carrying out this pell-mell withdrawal from Afghanistan, our leaders, after all, were only giving us what we wanted," columnist Max Boot wrote.

"We are all committed to ensuring that our citizens, nationals and residents, employees, Afghans who have worked with us and those who are at risk can continue to travel freely to destinations outside Afghanistan.

The Taliban killed a popular Afghan folk singer just days after the group said it hoped to ban music from being played in public in Afghanistan, according to a former minister. Fawad Andarabi was "brutally killed" on Saturday, said Masoud Andarabi, who was the Interior Minister under former Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, in a Twitter post.

With fewer than 4 in 10 Americans approving of President Joe Biden's handling of Afghanistan, there is overwhelming bipartisan support for keeping U.S. troops in the country until all Americans and Afghans who aided the United States during the 20-year war have been evacuated, a new ABC News/Ipsos poll finds. (Snip) More than 8 in 10 (84%) Americans think U.S. troops should remain in the country until all Americans are evacuated, and just over 7 in 10 (71%) think they should stay until all Afghans who helped the United States are evacuated as well.

MOSCOW - Russian anti-aircraft missile troops have arrived in Belarus with a mission of establishing a training centre in the city of Grodno near the border with Poland and Lithuania, the Belarus Defence Ministry said on Saturday. The move is likely to add to tensions between Belarus and its neighbours, Poland and Lithuania, countries it accuses of meddling in its affairs by hosting exiled opposition leaders and refusing to recognise Alexander Lukashenko's victory in last year's election. Lukashenko's critics say the vote was rigged, which he denies. Belarus' Defence Ministry said on social media that the decision to set up joint

The fatal failure of Gen. Mark A. Milley

Gen. Mark A. Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs, must go. President Biden claims that the military advised him to close Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan and instead use Kabul’s airport to evacuate Americans. They were the ones who said the Afghan army would hold, that the pullout would go smoothly. If Biden is telling the truth, this disaster is on Milley’s watch. Or Biden is lying (the more likely scenario, based on what sources inside the administration are saying) and Milley failed to do his duty and push back against a commander in chief who is making deadly decisions. Either way, he is derelict in his duty

The public school system in America is in crisis — the worst crisis since the forced bussing and integration issues of the 1970s. Simply put, parents and students have lost faith in the school system to educate. They doubt whether the schools have the best interests of their students at heart. This poisonous doubt is having a tangible effect on enrollment. Despite the fact that public education is free, parents are sending their children to private schools with more reliable, more predictable policies. Enrollment in public schools nationwide declined by 3 percent last year. But it was the numbers for kindergarten enrollment
