40,000 Americans Remain Stranded In Kabul As Taliban Insurrectionists Surround Access Points
Joe Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal has left at least 40,000 American citizens stranded in the Taliban-infested region. Many are concerned that these people would be left to their deaths because the Taliban has control over all access points used to enter.
On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said there were at least 11,000 people, including American journalists, translators, contractors, aid workers, non-governmental organizations, and government employees.
Defense officials claimed on Tuesday that between 5,000 and 9,000 people would be removed from US planes each day. However, only 1,400 people have been evacuated in the three days since the Taliban took control of Kabul on Sunday.
Only 700 people were evacuated overnight, including 165 Americans, on seven C-17 planes.
On Sunday, only one plane was used to transport 640 people out of Kabul, so it’s unclear why only 100 people are being boarded at a time now.
Former CIA Director and retired General David Petraeus called the Biden team’s bungled effort a “Dunkirk moment” on Tuesday, while 45th President Donald Trump said it makes Vietnam “look like child’s play.”
Democrat Senate Leader Chuck Schumer claimed on Twitter that everything was fine despite the data pouring in.

The man holding the title of U.S. President gave a brief speech on Monday but refused to take questions from the press. He has since returned to Camp David.
Biden approval dropped to the lowest of his 7-month occupation after the Taliban Insurrectionists took over.
“Biden Press Secretary Jen Psaki can’t offer any guarantee that all Americans will be evacuated from Afghanistan,” RNC Research shared to Twitter.
