We left it to the terrorists. Biden abandoned it weeks before the entire Afghan government collapsed. I’m talking about Bagram Air Base. We also had a ton of terrorists detained there who were released by the Taliban. Maybe it could have been used to get our people out as we scrambled to leave the country. Biden oversaw a shambolic exit that left Americans behind. Now, he’s acting as if everything is fine while entrusting his State Department to handle future exits of Americans and anyone else who wants to leave. It won’t be successful. We have no troops on the ground. We have no leverage. And Secretary of State Antony Blinken is in way over his head with this position. He’s not our top diplomat. He’s a deer in the headlights. And the fact that China is rolling into Afghanistan should worry all of us, not least because China rolled Blinken in their first meeting in Anchorage, Alaska.
