Biden Team Gives Taliban List of American, Afghan Evacuees
The Biden Administration has again shown stunning incompetence during the self-inflicted Afghanistan crisis.
According to sources, U.S. officials gave the Taliban a list of names of American citizens, green card holders, and Afghan allies to grant entry into the airport.
In other words, a target list.
US officials gave Taliban list of evacuees: report
BY JORDAN WILLIAMS
U.S. officials gave the Taliban a list of American citizens and Afghan allies to grant access to Kabul’s airport, U.S. and congressional officials told Politico.
In the early days of the evacuation, the joint U.S. military and diplomatic coordination team at Kabul’s airport gave the Taliban a list of people the U.S. wanted to evacuate, Politico reported.
The list included Afghans who served alongside the U.S. during the war and sought special immigrant visas. Also listed were U.S. citizens, dual nationals and lawful permanent residents.
But after thousands of visa applicants arrived, the State Department asked applicants not to come to the airport. Since then, the list given to the Taliban didn’t include the names of Afghans, Politico reported.
The move was meant to help evacuate thousands of people from Afghanistan after the Taliban seized control of the country, according to the news outlet. The White House has been relying on the Taliban to provide security for the outer perimeter of Kabul’s airport.
But the decision angered lawmakers and military officials, as the Taliban has a history of murdering Afghans who collaborated with the U.S. during the 20-year conflict.
“Basically, they just put all those Afghans on a kill list,” one defense official told Politico, adding “it’s just appalling and shocking and makes you feel unclean.”
I’m now afraid to ask the question, what will these weapons grade stupid, incompetents in charge do next?

Oh, yeah, Talibastards are trustworthy…
Another 24K Blue Falcon move by the most incompetent administration ever.
I’m going to think of something incredibly stupid and then take bets on the chances of this administration implementing it in this current do-called “strategy” of withdrawal here in Afghanistan.
It’s going to take a heavy lift to come up with something that’ll best this one, Chief.
I have no doubt the Kurrent Klown Krew will lower themselves to the task.
The possibilities are horrifying.
January 6 was a political demonstration, nothing more.
It was not an insurection nor was it a coup de tat.
I fear that this present administration will not make it
to the next election without a great deal of trouble.
Trouble like both you and I have not seen in our lifetimes.
I hope not but hope is lousy plan.
Absolutely, 100%, without a doubt these assholes WILL redirect the justified fury over their mishandlings towards ‘threats’ by an ‘internal enemy’ under the guise of ‘security’ to garner more power and facilitate the destruction of dissent.
We are here now.
‘Burn the [country] to save it.’
26L,
It was an “attempted insurrection”,
already admitted to by dozens, if not hundreds,
of the various January 6 knuckleheads already arrested and charged.
You know, the cop macers, the barricades fighters,
and the window smashers and climbers.
BTW, nothing to do with Afghanistan and Biden’s incompetence.
No, no, no no, but it will be used as justification to violate peoples’ civil ri… oh, wait.
Biden is a tyrant and the Federal Bumbling Instigators’ plot to get Americans to harm/injure/kill members of our despotic government failed.
Have a nice day.
Roh-Dog,
People are going to believe what they want to believe
about these 900 or so knuckleheads,
but we will all be seeing what they say at their guilty plea hearings, and then again at their sentencings.
And a lot of it won’t be pretty.
Don’t bring checkers to a chess game.
What has been leaked is about as exciting as a wet fart. 900? Try tens.
The rest of those poor slobs are being pilloried for a Capitol Tour Gone Wrong.
If the FIBs have hard evidence, not like Stewart Rhodes talking about having a QRF in VA *if* the Feds got all Boston Massacre-y while he advocated, pled with ,and instructed “his people” to be peaceful.
If the Dims, in parts (read: Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, etc) or as a whole had *any* desire to ‘unite’ this country there wouldn’t be people incarcerated right now without bail for walking thru open doors.
Also, if they cared about unity there would be pardons or dropping of charges for trespassing.
If they gave one iota of fucks about saving face and not looking like giant fucking hypocrites THEY would tone down their rhetoric.
But here we are, anyone that believes in law and order, equally spread for the betterment of all, regardless of ideology, is now a DVE.
I didn’t make this happen, but I’m watching. I didn’t start the fire, but I’m feeling it.
Now, if you have some bit of evidence the rest of us haven’t seen, ante up big boy.
Innocence until….
Most charges amount to “trespass” and/or “illegal parade” .
Anyone charged with insurrection or treason?
Many folks will plead to minor charges to escape endless incarceration (often in solitary). And often much, much worse.
Most, it turns out, will plead to spare kids, spouse, etc from prosecution.
The above two straight from family in Federal law enforcement.
Don’t be naive.
Ask Ashley’s hubby.
He’s been crying up the wrong trees.

[Ashli Babbitt’s husband goes on Fox News
to appeal for cop who shot her to be named]
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/crime/ashli-babbitt-husband-interview-b1866286.html
Those of us that are experienced shooters have seen the photos of this incompetent Capitol cop sweeping his fellow officers with his finger on the trigger of his Glock. We have also seen the photos of Babbit trying to climb through that little window with no weapons in her hands or in no position for this small woman to harm anyone. We have also seen officers with drawn pistols who were closer to her who did not shoot. So, there is no justification for this incompetent to shoot her. Very simply Byrd is a liar.
I can’t bring myself to watch that guy’s interview, but have read the quotes. Who the hell talks about themselves like that? Guy certainly has a high opinion of himself and his actions.
I’m sure he wasn’t talking like that when he left his duty weapon in the shitter.
“Very simply Byrd is a liar.”
And a cold-blooded murderer…
I should also add that his level of incompetent pistol handling would have caused officer Byrd to get kicked off the range of any Cowboy Action Shooting match. Muzzle sweep your fellow shooters with a loaded and cocked pistol and you are gone, pronto and permanently.
And finally, after more than 7 months, yesterday Officer, Ashli Babbitt admits to shooting the unarmed woman in the back of the neck. The lady in question we have wondered about who and why she was killed.
If only there was a more defensible military installation located in the grater Kabul area that had runways and other infrastructure…if only one existed…
You mean one they could build sandBAG and RAM emplacements around?
Hmmm……
The Sea Eye Aye and State Department hand over a list of people who could shed light on 20 years of graft to the Tally Bahn, hmm, interesting times we live in….Shanghai smiles.
P.S. I did not kill myself and neither did Epstein!
Is anyone else,
beside the Biden administration team and some DOD officials,
really falling for the “New and Improved Taliban” shtick?
Let see. Besides the CIC, VCIC, CJCS, Congressional leadership of both parties who have oversight responsibility of the Executive branch? I’m an American. The individuals who are our lords and masters believe it. Isn’t that enough? I could give a wharf rats skinny tail whether the Dutch, Japanese, and/or Mexicans are falling for the “new and improved Taliban” talking points.
And the hits keep coming. Nothing like having your own grubermint/ally sign your death warrant.
And the destruction of America as we know it continues.
May the ones that condemned these people to their deaths suffer the barbed cock of Satan while their souls burn in Hell for all eternity.
Dickweeds and Dickweedettes… I’m thinking that we haven’t seen how low Gropin’ Joe and his handlers will take our country.

What guarantee do we have that the Marines in Kabul will actually have a ride out?
TOW, I’m sure that the Blue Falcon hasn’t finished with those still on the ground at HKIA…
God help each and every one of them come home safe.
Holy shit! That Lieutenant Colonel threw it the heck down!
This dude has bigger ones than a whole bunch of our military ‘leadership’!
I hope this is the start of a wave
Tremendous respect for that guy. I’m guessing he probably nuked his own future in the Marine Corps by posting that video, he knows it, and decided it was worth it to take a stand for what’s right. In other words, he’s the kind of leader they should be bending over backwards to keep.
AMEN!!!
It’s like that little sample bullet that was on the NCOER form: “Chooses the harder right over the easier wrong”. Holy shit, people still do that?
Apparently not.
Else why are we praising him?
Every single General and Admiral must be fired. The most seniors, dismissed.
All of them.
Well, everyone on that list is fucked.
Jee-zus wept…
It’s almost like there are traitors in our State Department secretly working for the Taliban and other Slamonazi enemies of Western Civilization.
The low information voter/liberals who watch cnn/msnbc still think that everything is Jake and their supreme ruler is the cat’s meow and are blaming President Trump for the tallybanana fast advance. Cia took their peeps out in this past April and told the Kremlin (wh) about the advancing tallybananas gaining speed but were ignored.
Any buyer’s remorse from the crooked fucks at Langley?
Use “crooked cucks.” It plays well and has alliteration.
It’ll never beat “Nattering nabobs of negativity”!
If they could also stop the droning away any residual success that remains in the ME, that’d be great.
With regards to that AO, in most circumstances the enemy of your enemy is also your enemy. I wonder when/if they’ll figure out, ffs.
Biden’s latest disastrous presser. Here’s the official transcript if you missed it or don’t want to watch a stoddering, sundowning old fool. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/2021/08/26/remarks-by-president-biden-on-the-terror-attack-at-hamid-karzai-international-airport/
One of the highlights I think is interesting is,
“Military counterparts?” Biden’s doing everything in his power to legitimize the Taliban as the rightful rules of Afghanistan. For the last two weeks, he’s basically confirmed that the Taliban are in fact the legitimate rulers of A-Stan.
WTF
