War. Since 9 11, leaving behind deep physical And emotional pain for many of the Ands'>Hundreds Of ThousAnds who bravely serve here. And many of course remember on multiple tours. As we finally wrap up u. S. Military operations in afghanistan, our enemies are gleefully exploiting our president s in aptitude. And the results, as we saw today, are deadly. Tonight, we are going to bring you straight analysis of its rapidly deteriorating situation. We have all of the military And political Shock Waves covered. Perspective from Ed Byers, retired Navy Seal, Master Chief, he was the recipient of the Medal Of Honor for rescuing an american hostage from the taliban. Along with afghanistan vets, Congressman Waltz, green, And Mast Vehicle And for the political fallout, Newt Gingrich And mark meadows. But first, bidens body bag. That is the focus of tonights angle. For the past week, biden And his team has spun over And over that the evacuation is going well. Well, today, we saw the truth. This was all total crap. This was a total catastrophe. And if you And your team, mr. President , cannot hAndle this mission, why should we trust you to hAndle any mission . Our enemies know we are being led by a bAnd of incompetence, And none of them are shaking in their boots from this biden promised. To those who carried out this attack, know this. We will not forgive. We will not forget. We will hunt you down And make you pay. Laura the fact is, President Biden And his hAndpicked Military Leaders have failed the american people. They failed to bring And build an Afghan Army to withstAnd the taliban. They failed to organize a withdrawal that didnt devolve into total chaos. And they failed to first extract of americans still in Harms Way And instead, they prioritized afghan nationals. As far as we know, Hundreds Of Americans still remain in afghanistan. How many more And-women-in-uniform'>Men And Women In Uniform might die because blinken, milley, And the rest have no idea what they are doing. These young men And women joined the military to serve And protect their country, but now they are forced to serve under leaders who couldnt run a school crosswalk. All americans should have been withdrawn weeks ago, not in the last moments. Once they created chaos all around the airports, it created impossible situations, one that allowed isis militants to murder our soldiers. Just like Joe Biden created a magnet for illegals And the cartels of the southern border, his plan created a magnet for terrorists at the airport In Kabul. We expect those attacks to continue And we are doing everything we can to be prepared for those attacks. That includes reaching out to the taliban, who are actually providing the outer Security Court around the airfield to make sure they know what we expect them to do to protect us. Laura is he even listening to how insane he sounds . He is the head of centcom. We are relying on the people who we have been at war with for the last 20 years for protection And safe passage . Now we are letting them play tsa for us In Kabul . Of course, thats not even the worst part. It turns out that the biden administration actually gave their taliban counterparts a list of americans in country And a list of afghans okayed for evacuation. There have been occasions when our military has contacted their military counterparts in the taliban And said we want you to let that bus or that group through. I cant tell you with any certitude that theres actually been a list of names may have been, but i know of no doesnt mean it didnt exist, we are just counting on their Self Interest to continue to generate their activities. And its in their selfinterest that we leave when we said, And that we get as many people out as we can. Laura its actually scarier hearing that the second time around, by the way. I only heard it once, that was the second time, its terrifying. I cannot believe this is happening in the united states of america. Encouraging thousAnds of desperate afghanis to flock to that airport, of course, just an idiotic endeavor. We are seeing it play out at our southern border. Desperate migrants, they are rushing in. And it is just And-suffering'>Pain And Suffering caused along the way. These are purely political calculations that bidens team has made. They wanted millions of migrants at the southern border, they got them, And now they want Ands'>Hundreds Of ThousAnds of afghan refugees here in the united states, And we are on track to get that number, as well. My friends, they cannot be allowed to continue this. This cannot be allowed to happen. Joe biden has proved himself to be completely incompetent. A single american Service Man or woman should not die under the regime that theyve created. In the Military Leaders, from milley to the head of And'>Central CommAnd to what we have seen in our secretary of defense, lloyd austin, none of them should be still in their positions, none of them. Accountability is something we need in washington, d. C. And remember earlier this week, we heard biden And his Team Say oh, now is not the time antony blinken, now is not the time to ask these questions closed would. No, now is the time to ask these questions. Now is the time to demAnd accountability. And tonight, we are going to do that. We have a great lineup of guests. Men served in afghanistan, men who know how the struggle for our And-women-in-uniform'>Men And Women In Uniform goes on a daily basis. They are not just talking about it, they did it. Joining me for star three House Lawmakers who served in afghanistan, Florida Congressman mike waltz, a green beret, brian mast, a bomb disposal expert, And Tennessee Congressman Mark green, special ops. Congressman waltz, lets start with you. Was this this is kind of a gimme question, was this all avoidable today, And if so, why have we not seen any resignations . Laura, it is worth noting the same team that is around the same team that is around biden is the same team that was around obama. Right . The same ones that were responsible for benghazi, responsible for the rise of isis, that were responsible for the birddog trade, have now created this mess, And biden was there, too, And heres where we are. Now he has is any position, because he pulled out too fast, too soon, let the Afghan Army collapse, took no action when it was happening, shut down our main airbase, now we have this false choice of either stay And continue to suffer attacks in an indefensible position in Kabul Airport, or go And leave americans behind And create the largest Mass Hostage Situation in american history. Itll make 1979 look like childs play. That is what this team And that is where biden has gotten us, On Top of Laura Congress Congressman mast, i want to go to you here. What i was stunned by, the 5,000 things that i was stunned by today, And i am really mad, heartbroken, thats obvious, but i am so im just livid about how this has been able to happen to our troops. Joe biden gets up there, And he praises the leadership from the And'>Central CommAnd. Well, we are all unanimous on the decisions weve made. If they are all unanimous on the decisions weve made to leave those troops as Sitting Ducks there, then we have even bigger problems on our hAnds. Congressman . Yeah, All Of Us have been in briefings, And we cant give you everything in those briefings but we can tell you they were anything but unanimous, And you look at their words, And analyze this, he said we wont be intimidated, America Wont be intimidated. Them being intimidated was what brought all of this about, from beginning to end. Being intimidated into a redline of a date. Being intimidated into not following through on their redline, such as that any interruption of our operations will be met with a swift response, remember biden saying that . I would call the taliban court on around the airport And interruption. Them not letting people through an interruption. Our And-bagram'>Embassy And Bagram airbase, that would be considered an interruption, stealing our equipment, that would be an interruption, zero response, And i just say that about him, his words are empty. We know that. His head is empty. And his heart is empty. And its costing our friends lives. Laura congressman greene, we have 13 american families the larger american family, obviously, his grieving but we think of the 13 american families, all of their friends, all of the fellow Service Members who are grieving tonight. And yet, Joe Biden actually says that bagram when they look back, well, we didnt really need Bagram Airbase. Watch. I asked whether best military judgment, what would be the most efficient way to accomplish the mission . They concluded, the military, that bagram was not much value added. That it was much wiser to focus on kabul. And so, i followed that recommendation. Laura is it just me, or was Joe Biden speaking at like three paces to slow today . Its weird. He comes across weird, like he is totally disconnected from the content of what he is saying. But congressman greene, given all your experience, how critical of a mistake was it for us to abAndon Bonham Airbase . Well, thanks for having us on, laura. It was a huge mistake, the biggest mistakes in our nations military history, but it was Joe Biden who made that decision. I know for a fact that the military advised him not to leave bagram. He said we are going to downsize to 600 marines, And the leadership told him we Cant Hold Bagram with 600 marines. He said i dont care, go to 600. He arbitrarily picked a number out of the sky, And he cannot hold the base with 600, so they. This is Joe Biden And his incompetence that made that decision, And that decision is what cost those lives today. The perimeter around that base is a straight line. Thats it. But out at bagram, you had kilometers of range that you could see the enemy coming, but not when it is just a street in the middle of an urban area. It is a horrible decision And 100 Joe Bidens And that is not the first line this guy has told, or i should say, hes totally disconnected from the truth, many, many other lies, And he needs to step down, he needs to resign, or the cabinet needs to do something. Laura, can i just laura you, go ahead. We were just briefed by the military yesterday on the armed Services Committee that when we went back in to evacuate the embassy, they were once again presented Joe Biden with the option of taking bagram, And he once again didnt choose to do so, so on the one hAnd, he didnt listen about shutting it down too fast. By the way, 5,000 hardened isis, Al Qaeda, And taliban prisoners are now on the loose. And then he didnt listen when they had to go back in to evacuate our embassy after the collapse of kabul, And now, he is tying the hAnds of our Special Forces, who are chomping at the bit to go out into the And-outside'>City And Outside of the city to get our americans that are strAnded, he wont let them do that, either. Their hAnds or being tied. So this is just incompetence laura congressman. Congressman mast, i have to get you in on this, because when i hear the president of the united states, And earlier, general mckenzie, the head of And'>Central CommAnd, talking about how we are essentially relying on the good graces of the taliban to get our americans out of there look, this is your field, not mine, but given what we know they are capable of, how how are those words even coming out of their mouths . I feel like im living in some kind of Alternative Reality here, but you know this, i dont, so set me straight if im wrong. What person come again . Did you say the people we have been hunting for the last 20 years . The people that we have been exchanging fire with. The people we have seen stone their women And their men, the people we have seen rape young women, young girls, young boys, those are the people you are saying are going to have our back on the way out . Those are the ones you are relying on . Everybody scratch their head And said excuse me . The people that are now have the most sophisticated military weaponry, surface to air assets, rounds, you name it, those are the ones, thats what you are talking about, we all had a collective exact response And that you just questioned. You are doing what . And it made it made no sense to one person on the face of this earth. Laura congressman greene, on the issue of continuing our Troop Presence there, given what we saw, And the carnage that we saw today, how is the situation going to get any better . Again, going back to centcom, all the money we sent on centcom, all the expertise, And The General says we expect these attacks, so our troops going to be Sitting Ducks, Target Practice with a terrorist, or are we going to bring in Fire Power to do this . I certainly hope they do bring in the firepower. They have to push that Perimeter Out to where they have actual Fields Of Fire And fields of vision to see an enemy when it is coming. They cant just sit in the middle of that city And expect to know what the enemy is doing. I mean, they have to push that Perimeter Out. And then they have to defend it. And they can do that by sending those Special Forces out, just like, you know, Congressman Waltz mentioned. Right now, they are tying their hAnds, so they are not out in that city looking for the enemy, fighting the enemy, pushing the enemy away. There is no Buffer Zone at all, so until they do that, yeah, were going to continue to see this, And it is unacceptable, it should never happen. Laura Congressman Waltz, weve seen all the heartbreaking video of our marines holding up little infants And water bottles, thats not our militarys role. As heartbreaking as it is, as awful as it is, is it also not the case that withdrawing from any conflict, especially one we werent victorious in, it was always going to be a mess. Not this messy, but people were going to be left behind. Is that not the case, to play Devils Advocate here . Well, theres lots of different ways that it could have been done better, laura, you know, set aside the debate of continuing with a small presence of intel, which i believe we are going to have to do one way or another, because one thing the intel is clean on his Al Qaeda is coming back And intends to hit the united states again, And Al Qaeda And the taliban are married at the hip. But if you decide to withdraw, there are a lot better ways to do it. You dont yank everything out at once. In one fell swoop, we took the Afghan Armys logistics support, maintenance support, intelligence support, And their air support, in the middle of the fighting season, And announced to the world a date that we were going to do it by. You know, there are ways to do it gradually, to do it where it is not such of a shock to the afghan Army Laura but not with these guys. But congressman yeah, sorry to interrupt, interject here, but congressman mast, heres my problem with all of this. Is that we have people in charge, our troops are relying on competence to lead them. We have people in charge who come again, i wouldnt trust, you know, to do security at an elementary school. And we are going to have them plan a mission where they are going to go doortodoor to get americans, or the women that people at nbc say helped us in translation im sorry, i dont trust the leadership. So until we have a consensus, political consensus in our country, to go back in there And essentially declare war all over again, with new Military Leadership, congressman mast, i mean, are we going to sacrifice another u. S. Service member under this leadership . Troops are great, the leaders are terrible. I prayed to god, as im sure you do, not one more life, not one more limb, not one more injury. What you are asking is, we have no strategic objectives here. They have optical objectives. We know that Joe Biden wanted to get out by 9 11 so he could have a celebration that ended up costing lives. We know that they didnt want it to appear as a combat operation, that was one of the first things there press teams that it is not a comet operation, which is putting peoples lives at risk when it is all optics. They are not meeting strategic objectives, And you cant do that if you dont have something you are going to meet. We are going to eliminate the taliban, eliminate Al Qaeda, eliminate isis, make sure our southern Border Laura we been doing this for 20 years. But if you are not meeting those, then there is no laura 20 years. Congressman green, 20 years, And they are trying to still spin this as weve got them on their heels, or the taliban are going to help us, or we are going to get everyone out by it i mean, they are continuing to spin this today, to listen to this The General in charge of our And'>Central CommAnd, i come as a civilian, was horrified today. I was horrified by what i heard. I was really upset at the tone. I mean, it was almost laura it was glib, almost. Especially from centcom commAnder, i was very disappointed in that. Ill tell you, i think the president is interjecting himself way too much in the military decisionmaking here. I pinned most of the blame of this on him. But that Press Conference Today was embarrassing for the Military Leadership. They were so tonedeaf. I mean, we are talking 13 dead americans, And they acted like it was some kind of statistical data crunch. Infuriating. Laura i have to say, thats actually thats actually a very clinical way of describing it, but thats how it came off to me. Of course, Joe Bidens son suffered, reading the bible, though, we need to hear solutions. We dont need to hear a walk down Memory Lane by Joe Biden. I mean, we need solutions. Yes, final thoughts . These have probably been the easiest Press Conferences for Joe Biden any time, because all he has to do is say the opposite of whats going on in afghanistan or in the world. That is what they are telling him. Just say the opposite of what is actually happening. Laura its this cant be our country, but it is, And it is time for congress to step up, And i hope all of you continue to have an Oversight Role And demAnd, replace this Military Leadership. Our soldiers And our airmen, our reservists, our navy, everyone is suffering as a result. Gentlemen, thank you. And his Biden Setting the stage for a massive Hostage Crisis by giving the names of these americans to the taliban . Well, someone who is a recipient of the Medal Of Honor for a Daring Rescue Mission in afghanistan ways And next. Stay there. So whats going on . Im a talking dog. The other issue. Oh. Im scratching like crazy. Youve got some allergic itch with skin inflammation. Apoquel can work on that itch in as little as 4 hours, whether its a new or chronic problem. And apoquels treated over 10 Million dogs. Nice. And. The talking Dog Thing . Is it bothering you . No. Itching like a dog is bothering me. Until dogs can speak for themselves, you have to. When allergic itch is a problem, ask for apoquel. Apoquel is for the control of itch associated with allergic dermatitis And the control of Atopic Dermatitis in dogs. Do not use apoquel in dogs less than 12 months old or those with serious infections. Apoquel may increase the chances of developing serious infections And may cause existing parasitic infestations or preexisting cancers to worsen. New neoplasias were observed in clinical studies And postapproval. Most common Side Effects are vomiting And diarrhea. Feeling better . Im speechless. Thanks for the apoquel. Ahh, thats what friends are for. Ask your veterinarian for apoquel. Next to you, apoquel is a dogs best friend. Laura our next guest is a man who has some experience. First And-experience'>HAnd Experience extracting hostages in afghanistan. He is a retired Navy Seal Master Chief And a recipient of the congressional Medal Of Honor for that rescue of an american doctor from the taliban back in 2012 And joins me now. First of all, thank you for your service, for being here tonight. Your take on the situation, just as as you are witnessing this unfold, especially when we know there are still Hundreds Of Americans on the ground in afghanistan . Yeah, thanks, laura. First And foremost, you know, the nation is in mourning. Today pierced the heart of our country. In large part because this year is an important year of anniversaries. The eve of the 20th anniversary of 9 11. We just came off the 10year anniversary of capturing And killing bin laden, And just a few weeks ago, we came off the 10year anniversary of the single biggest loss of life And Special Operations history. 30 americans in the military were killed on that helicopter on august 6th, 2011, And 10 years later, we now have 13 brave servicemen, 12 marines, And this was tragic, And completely avoidable. I think as americans laura explain how, edward. Edward, if you dont mind, im sorry to interrupt, but how specifically could this have been avoided, And then, assuming our troops are going to be asked under this leadership to go in And try And pull these americans out, how dangerous would that be . Hey, weve been at this, you know, far too long, And we know this environment far too well. We have units designed to tackle this exact problem setting. We have the 82nd Airborne out of fort bragg, And you have the ranger regiment. The 82nd Airborne is designed to hAndle Contingency Crisis around the world within 18 hours. There could be multiple psakis going over there right now with those units And securing the airfield. We look back in history And 1983 And granada come operation urgent fury, out of savannah, georgia, taking the airport, Ranger Battalion designed to do exactly this type of thin. Secure the airfields, start pushing out words security, And then start bringing back people the way we know how. We use force, overwhelming violence, And action, And that is how we take this back And show that we are american And we have the greatest Fighting Force in the history of the world. Laura are you confident, ed, under this Military Leadership, that that is possible, given what weve seen just in the past ten days at that airport, And what our troops have been asked to do in the ten days with, right now, even the Centcom General says oh, this is going to keep happening, the attacks on the airport are going to keep happening . Well, what i know for a fact if given the ability to go do the job that we know how to do, we wouldnt be in this situation to begin with. We would have been over with this war a long time ago. But the military has always been hamstrung by politicians. Weve always been trying to play pattycake in an environment where you have to abide by different rules. War is brutal, it is violent, And if the military was just given the authority to go do their job, there are a tremendous amount of resources that can be brought to bear that for sure could execute And complete this mission. Laura ed, finally, youve obviously seen the taliban up close And personal. You dealt with them. Rescuing that american doctor. The main reason, you are the recipient of the Medal Of Honor as a Navy Seal. Should we be relying on them for Safe Passage Of Americans In Afghanistan . I think its absolutely ridiculous that we would be relying on people that we have been fighting against for the past 20 years to provide a safe passage. What we should be doing is showing our force of who we are, definitely not relying on them to provide safe passage to americans. We see where it got us, right here. The network providing security right now, he was a mentor to bin laden. So, we are relying on people that provided security for our forces that literally mentored bin laden. Its absolute insanity. Laura right before the anniversary, ed, of 9 11. This is unbelievable. Ed, i can think of fewer people that i would rather have spoken to tonight. Thank you so much, And we will check back with you next week. And now, i want to bring in retired Brigadier General don boulder, who has been involved in Hostage Rescues And also running in the senate as a republican in New Hampshire for the senate. General, what needs to happen right now, you just heard from you former Navy Seal, he said we are capable of doing this, but the idea that we are giving lists of names to the taliban . And the media, by the way, did not get around to asking that question until about four questions in today. No, you know well, thank you, laura, for having me on, And thanks for all that you do. First of all, this is a complete the only word that comes to mind is incompetence, from start to right now. I came out last week saying what we needed to do, we need to do to go in there with overwhelming force, secure all the airfields in afghanistan And secure the lines operation, open up the corridors, have Special Operation Forces ready to go in, have our aircraft above, predators above, you cannot work with the taliban, certainly cant give them lists, And this is malfeasance, And this is complete incompetence at the highest levels, And it is just not on the political side, it is on the military side, as well, And it has been done wrong. It needs to be done right. And i submit to you that we cant let this stAnd. We have to go back in there. I have been part of beating the afghan the taliban And Al Qaeda twice, And we can do it again. And that is what we need to do. We cannot let this stAnd. You cant do business with the taliban, you cant do business with isis, you cant do business with Al Qaeda. It is just the wrong thing to do. That is one thing we have learned, And all these generals should know that. This has been laura i just i do not believe, after what i saw from the centcom commAnder, what ive seen from austin, what ive seen from milley, what ive seen from obama himself, i do not trust these people to direct those complicated missions. I just dont. And so, right now, i want to bring in kash patel, former Defense Department Chief of staff, trump brought him into run the afghan withdrawal. Kash, your reaction to all of this . People are like laura, you seem flabbergasted, im infuriated. As an american citizen, i see the suffering of these And-women-in-uniform'>Men And Women In Uniform, And they are suffering. They are suffering for 20 years, for this unending war that keeps going on, they are suffering, And today, i am infuriated. Kash . No, And i can understAnd your theory, And look, you had Ed Byers on, my brother who i served with, he hit it on the head. You cannot unleash the fury of the american Defense Department if it is hamstrung by a political leadership. Laura, im glad you are the only person finally talking about Centcom Leadership yearly little bit about that, And'>Central CommAnd is responsible for the afghan theater of war, And mckenzie just gave a Press Conference that led to an abject failure in the confidence in Military Leadership. He was one of the least favorite generals we had serving under President Trump. His credibility cratered then because of his hAndling of a situation in the Middle East And now he is running to the podium to try to gain political favor with the media And try to brush over his failures And they are his failures. He is the commAnding general for afghanistan, And On Top of Chairman Milley And secretary austin, it all they want to talk about his deflections And other lame, when we under President Trump had a methodical plan that led to no casualties And a successful withdrawal because we removed the political apparatus from the Department Of Defense And let them do their job. Laura our allies respected us, grudgingly, And our enemies feared us, as they should. Kash And general bolduc, thank you. It is time for And-schumer'>Pelosi And Schumer to do what is right for the country, demAnd accountability. Accountability from the president. Newt gingrich walks us through it needs to happen next in this rapidlydeteriorating situation. Stay there. Laura where is congress . Isnt it time for congress i dont care if you are a Republican Or Democrat to start demAnding accountability for whats been happening in afghanistan . They have to get the biden administration clean house . It all together, pick a new national security team, a consensus team, And just present it to Joe Biden. Say joe, this is what you are going to do now. Something has to change here. This dynamic cannot continue. It puts our men And women needlessly in Harms Way. Joining me now is Newt Gingrich, Fox News Contributor And former speaker of the house. Newt, putting american interests first, both our national security interests And avoiding another needless loss of americans lives, as we saw today, What Role Should Congress play here, given what is unfolding . Well, this is an unusual circumstance. We have not seen a president this incompetent, we havent seen a President Surrender to an enemy in a way that Joe Biden has, And he has allowed a 7century tribal group to defeat the most powerful country in the 21st century. Its an astonishing outcome, so i think congress, if they actually cared about america And wanted to put america first, rather than partisan politics, both the And-senate'>House And Senate would go into special sessions, one, to hold hearings And really try to get the truth. Two, i think, to insist on firing an entire group of people. You cant, as a practical matter, fire the president , but the national security advisor, the secretary of state, secretary of defense, chairman of the joint chiefs, commAnder of the And'>Central CommAnd, i mean, we have learned The System has failed. And its failed in a way which is humiliating america around the world. Its failed in a way which has gotten some courageous Young Marines killed And other people killed. With a likelihood to continue this going on, the comments by And'>Central CommAnd, commAnder, oh, there will be more attacks like this what nonsense. The whole point is you bring in enough troops, you bought the attacks. You bring enough intelligence assets, enough overhead things like creditors, you do what you have to do to your people. And i think this is the most pathetic, ignorant, And wrongheaded act of national security, i think, certainly in my lifetime, And may be in the history of the country. This is an astonishing laura i agree with you. Self imposed defeat. Laura people are talking about jfk And the bay of pigs. I mean, at least at some point he made changes. But i dont see anything on the horizon, newt, you hit the nail on the head. First of all, the bay of pigs, they had an operational plan, they changed the plan. It ended up not working. Kennedy took responsibility for it. But he didnt go And surrender to castro. He didnt turn over american equipment to the cuban communists. What biden has been doing, And i found it very chilling today, when he shifted to we are going to get as many people out as we can, boy, that is Something Congress ought to insist on. Every american And every afghan ally gets out, or we dont leave. We dont listen to the taliban. We tell the taliban. And if that means putting b52s And B2s Over Afghanistan again And it means using creditors And doing, frankly, to the senior leadership exactly what we did to soleimani, the thing that trump had done is he had really scared them. Because he was going to specifically target the leaders of the taliban. And they had seen enough of that with baghdadi And with others. Laura newt, newt, you mentioned newt, you mentioned general mckenzie of centcom. A lot of our viewers arent all that familiar with him, but i think we have to play this one sound bite, which think speaks volumes about how we are relying, again, on the taliban for security. Watch. We also use the taliban as a tool to protect us as much as possible, but we share a common purpose. As long as we kept that common purpose aligned, they have been useful to work with. They have cut some of our Security Concerns down. Operate with varying degrees of confidence appeared some of those guys are Scrupulously Good And others are not. Laura Scrupulously Good, And newt. He should be fired just for that comment. Listen to the veterans earlier who get it And understAnd the taliban. We have been killing these people for 20 years. They are not going to be happy with us. They are, in fact, going to be quite cheerful about stepping to one side. One of the questions that has to be asked, if we released 5,000 prisoners when we closed bagram, how many of those prisoners were involved in Todays Attack . How many will be involved in Tomorrows Attack . Laura all right. This whole thing is a nightmare, And it was totally unnecessary. Laura selfinflicted wounds And deaths. Newt, thank you for that perspective tonight. I want to get back to kash patel. Kash, this is what biden said earlier today about donald trump. The reason why there were no attacks on americans, as you said, from the date until i came into office, was because the commitment was made by President Trump. I will be out by may 1st. In the meantime, you agree not to attack any americans. That was the deal. That is why no american was attacked. Laura your reaction to that . That, though, is an admission, is it not, that he just needlessly endanger the americans by not just sticking to trumps original plan . Well, thats just it, he doesnt have a plan. Look, President Trumps plan secured the safe withdrawal of americans in our military, And d was admit to that. Thats right, we had no casualties under President Trumps conditionsbased withdrawal, And now he comes in And we have more casualties than we have had in a decade. So i think this is a glaring admission by the president , of his failures in leadership, And the fact he keeps deflecting over two President Trump, no, President Biden, you are the commAnder in chief. You are in charge of our armed forces. You are the one who surrendered Bagram Air force base. What are you doing to safeguard american citizens in the country besides having a Press Secretary Have Americans be texted And phone called And emailed . No, send it our Forces Operators to go rescue american citizens in afghanistan. That is what our military does. Laura kash, you know what i was thinking . Hes got to go. This guy has got to go. I dont trust them to do anything that keeps our troops out of Harms Way. I think whatever he does, whatever he touches here, is not going to go well. So im just going to say that until i am blue in the face. Kash, you know what i was thinking about as i was driving it tonight . We have spent the better part of, what, seven months still today, articles in the l. A. Times, where i am the new york times, about January 6th. The democrats have obsessed singularly on the insurrection. As a real insurrection is unfolding in afghanistan, against our people. Who are trying to have some type of orderly process under terrible commAnd. But imagine if they had spent all that energy And time doing their Oversight Work of this Executive Branch And this group of buffoons, whose actions are ending up getting our guys killed. I mean, January 6th And critical race theory, And what these idiots have been focused on, its an embarrassment. I mean, you are absolutely right. That is a start just a position that no one else is making. January 6th in afghanistan. January 6th is the height of the politicization of the national Security Apparatus of the united states And it has continued into afghanistan, with the oversight people in congress want to focus on his narrative because it hurts President Trump. Stop blaming the past And start taking charge of the now, so no more Service Members are killed. Do your oversight responsibility. Call President Biden And tell him to lead And unleash our military And stop micromanaging this war like lbj did to vietnam. Laura kash, thank you. And americans overwhelmingly, as we think about all of this, they want to get out of afghanistan. Im right there with them, but this is not how they wanted it to happen. And biden is suffering at the polls as we see for his incompetence. And everything that happened today, a horrible loss of life. Usa Today Suffolk University Paul Mack week, Bidens Approval Rating at just 41 . 62 of americans disapproved of his hAndling of the withdrawal. Joining us now, mark meadows, former Trump Chief of staff. Mark, you were in the room where difficult decisions were made. Very difficult decisions. The bungling, which doesnt even capture it come of this afghanistan, it is setting the stage for more suffering for our troops, more national security difficulties, And politically, what does it say . Well, hope sadly, sinking polls is not the worst thing that is happening here. What we see is with Joe Biden, it is not only a bad Press Conference Today, but we had a tragic loss of american soldiers, marines, navy corpsmen. Their lives today. And its not going to be the end. The decisions that have been made, not just by Joe Biden, but by chairman millie, by secretary austin, when they gave the best Military Advice And they said that they were surprised that this would happen, its not consistent with what i know, it is not consistent with what many in the Intel Community knows, And quite frankly, its just not the truth. This was 100 avoidable. Heads need to roll. You know why Joe Biden was knocking on wood. President trump was knocking heads. And that is what they feared. And quite frankly, they dont fear the american military tonight. And that is a sad commentary. Laura mark, it seems to me that if this was an emergency And it is why isnt the senate back in session . Why is Nancy Pelosi Today talking about the womens vote, or whatever the hell she was talking about . Not in afghanistan, in the united states, i believe. Kamala was going to go campaign for Gavin Newsom in california, i guess they called that back, but they have no clue as to how serious this is on capitol hill. Well, they dont laura the Democrat Need to be talking about it, the leadership. Right, Speaker Pelosi called back congress so she could pass a 3. 5 trillion budget, And her favorite voting rights act, And it was all a political show, And yet, when it comes to really making a difference, she needs to call them back in, they need to hold weve got over 730 Billion a year that is spent on our military, And we just got schooled because of decisions that have been made by the Top Brass in our military And by those in the white house. Its a sad, sad day. Laura mark meadows, former Trump Chief of staff. Mark, thank you for your perspective. This is an incredibly difficult day for our troops, for their families, And for america, All Of Us. We are watching this unfold. When we come back, i have some final thoughts. Stay there. Laura we have to get her americans out, but most of us do not trust the current Military Leadership to direct any mission in afghanistan given their working with the taliban. If this has been an incredibly trying day for americans who wat to believe the best about revolution. Its time for democrats And republicans to demAnd a clean slate. New leadership running the military national Security Apparatus, State Department for good measure. We will continue to pray for our country And our troops. Shannon breams next And ill be watching.
