Biden himself is one of thousands left Behind Enemy Lines and is baking the president to save him. Todd you are watching fox and friends first. Jillian a fox news alert, new fallout is President Biden addresses the nation following the end of americas longest war. Todd republicans calling on him to resign in the wake of the deadly withdrawal. Doug luzader live in washington. Reporter this was a defiant President Biden who emerged to answer critics from both sides of the Aisle And Attempt to reframe this chaotic departure from afghanistan as a success despite the deaths of 13 us Service Members and the fact that perhaps 100 or more americans who wanted to leave were Left Behind. President biden this decision about afghanistan is not just about afghanistan. It is about ending an era of major Military Operations to remake other countries. I take responsibility for the decision. It was time to end this war. The president claimed his predecessor, Donald Trump, and said 90 of americans who wanted to leave got out. The White House corrected him and said was 98 . Either way those Stranded Americans face and certain future under the rule of the taliban who scooped up us weapons and aircraft paid for by us taxpayers Left Behind. He called is an extraordinary success but 12 marines and one sailor did the did not need to die is not a success. Hundreds of americans Left Behind, thousands more condemned to death under the taliban is not a success. This is a fiasco and a humiliating failure. Reporter a large bipartisan group of lawmakers is attempting to award the congressional Gold Medal to those 13 us Service Members were killed and that Terror Attack. Last week. Jillian thank you. Todd as washington wakes up a Dark Cloud Figuratively and literally hangs over the White House after the president double down that no one could have known the Afghan Army would collapse. Jillian the administration attempts damage control. Reporter President Biden defendant how the evacuations were handled despite hundreds of americans and thousands of afghan allies being stranded and hiding in afghanistan. 90 of americans in afghanistan who wanted to leave were able to leave and for those remaining americans there is no deadline. There is no evacuation from the end of the war you can run without the kinds of complexities, challenges and threats we faced. One afghan Left Behind, an interpreter who once saved biden along with senators John Kerry and Chuck Hagel during a snowstorm in 2008, that interpreter issuing a plea directly to the president in the Wall Street Journal asking biden to help him, his wife and his four children escape the taliban. s identity shielded, he said hello, Mister President , save me and my family, dont forget me here. The White House thanking the interpreter for his service but not indicated when or how he could be rescue. The White House doubling down on the claim that nobody could have known the Afghan Army would collapse as a Transit Surface revealing biden pressured the afghan president to get the perception the taliban wasnt winning back in july and the pentagon acknowledging americans are stranded. That doesnt mean the administration or the government is going to turn a blind eye to trying to help them get home and in other countries where we have americans that are stranded or need help getting out. The White House is defending President Bidens now broken promise to remain in afghanistan until all american citizens are even waited. The decision to leave americans and allies behind was to protect troops from further attacks. Todd you cant commit arson and claim credit for putting the fire out especially when part of the bill is still burning and that summarizes what is happening in afghanistan. Talk about a picture, a video that really hits home to the brave men and women who gave so much inviting in afghanistan. It is this image we are going to see of the taliban celebrated with a Mock Funeral for the us. And one world is that image considered an extraordinary success. There is on your screen right there. And the President Biden destroyed the credibility of americas promises to the world and the notion of americas power, armed an enemy we have been trying to disarm for 20 years and made a Terror Attack on the homeland much easier to coordinate. Jillian a lot of people waiting for listening to what the president had to say yesterday that included him saying the threat of terrorism continues but our strategy has to change. We dont need to fight a Ground War to do it. People wondering if that is the case, why do we have troops stationed in places all over the world including syria, japan, iraq, south korea, there are still a lot more questions than answers and we also heard the president say yesterday that 90 of americans who wanted to leave could leave. Those that are still there there is no deadline, it was 98 . There are still people there would like to leave and we had jakes talking yesterday shortly after the president saying this. There are 2 ways to leave afghanistan, one would be by air and we are working closely to get charter air flights going, second is by ground and working with neighboring countries to accept american citizens. What weve gotten from the taliban is a commitment private and public that any afghans with Travel Documentation including a special Immigrant Visa or other form of visa will be allowed safe passage. Jillian they are working with neighboring countries to get people out if they want to get out and the taliban promising passage, weve heard that over and over again but are we trusting what the taliban says, judge them by their actions. The big picture here is on tuesday the State Department issued a Travel Advisory, the most of your Travel Advisory level due to civil unrest, armed conflict, crime, Terrorism And Covid 1982 that part of state, the risk of Kidnapping Or Violence against us citizens in afghanistan is high noting the us embassy is now closed so youre issuing a Travel Advisory saying it is not safe to travel yet you are saying you can get out by Air Ground Transportation seems to be a conflicting thought process. Todd the inconsistencies are flexing, the inconsistency on the numbers, the White House and State Department and entire Dc Establishment Cant figure out what the numbers are. How many people are in afghanistan . With our ability to do intelligence, our ability to know what is going on that we should have that number by now and know it has been a fraction of 5, 10, it should be closer than we are. Lets look at the speech as a whole. It was a speech devoid of any of the qualities of a strong leader and coming at it from a tragically unique perspective, a Gold Star Mom who lost her son a week ago, she did some it up rather perfectly. If Mister Biden would like to tell me how i can sleep better at night right now or any american can, please give me a call and let me know how i can sleep tonight a full night. My son didnt make it home and it is on your watch. Because he was doing his job well. Can you imagine what that mother, the other mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters are still going through, weve been talking about this for a while. Think about how fresh. They really decide for yourself. Did the speech the president gave yesterday meet this moment . It has been 20 years in the making. Over the years, a lot of people pointing that out with the decisions that had been made. And the 20year war that lost thousands of lives. Did it make the mark you were listening to on travels, and other nonfox and tutees said it did not meet the moment, it is not a conservative talking points. The remnants of ida threatening the east coast. Todd live in mississippi as the state remains in the dark. Impacting the south, in the northeast, resources such as fema and the American Red Cross monitor the stores movements. They may be needed elsewhere. The desperation is growing for fuel, lines are long in louisiana and on the mississippi side as well, to find fuel needed not only for personal vehicles but Search And Rescue efforts and Repair And Recovery efforts. One local sheriff is asking everyone to remain patient. Very few Gas Stations are open, very difficult to get gas, the ones that are open have lines, im talking dozens. You might as well get in line, get your gas and get back in line before you run out again. Reporter in Southern Mississippi, the scene from yesterday, highway 26 closed major artery tragically between two towns in Southern Mississippi that left ten injured, two did. They repair that highway could take weeks if not months, the storm is still moving. I apologize for that. President biden taking a Victory Lap after 13 servicemembers were killed and hundreds of americans Left Behind by his administration. Todd taking down terrorists on a train, and served in afghanistan and a lot to say about the president s socalled success. One of the Three American Heroes who took down a terrorist on a Personnel Training 2015 is an afghanistan War Veteran taking President Biden to task for the chaotic afghanistan exit. Todd thanks for being here. What was your reaction to the selfcongratulatory tone of that speech . Absolutely ridiculous. They are trying to sell us on the false narrative between having to stay and leaving the way we did and it is not true whatsoever. We did not have to leave in that manner. We had so many opportunities to change course when we saw that it wasnt working and we took advantage of many of those. Jillian thank you for your service to this country. We heard the president say 90 of americans wanted to leave, the White House goes back and corrected to 98 , did you fight and sacrifice everything you did and fight overseas for our country so that any percentage of americans could be left overseas . Absolutely not. The 13 service men and women who gave their lives were not there for that mission but to get everybody out and get our allies out and even our dogs, our working dogs. It is such a colossal disaster on every level it is not even on bidens shoulders but on the joint chiefs as well, secretary of defense, to figure out how many people on this many levels of government could all drop the balls but in this big away. Todd is somebody who literally stop the Terror Attack how much has your worry gone over the last three weeks about an attack on the homeland . It hasnt a whole lot only because i think with all the weapons and equipment we gave the taliban they will be busy doing things in the middle east. They cant fly a Black Hawk across the ocean, but one of the most powerful militaries in the region pretty much overnight which is the other question, why did we leave that to the taliban and when we saw them take over the womens why didnt we destroy it . Im more concerned about the Open Southern Border that allows whoever wants to come into this country to come into this country whether it be terrorists or criminals or what have you. We need to do something about our overall security and foreign policy. Afghanistan seems like our country is in a freefall between the economy, afghanistan, coronavirus, whatever, hard to believe President Biden after 7 months. The threat of terrorism continue Dinner Strategy has to change too and we dont need to fight a Ground War to do it. Did you agree with that sentiment . A lot of people in hindsight may have at some point said we need to get out of afghanistan. Now people are trying to figure out how they feel about the situation. The majority of americans do not agree with how this was executed. Do you think we should have left afghanistan . We have troops throughout the world, should we have done that . What is the best option . Hard to say. I wanted to get out of afghanistan, seems like a huge waste of american resources, equipment, time. Glad we got out] being said we didnt have to get out in this way but the moment we left the taliban was going to take over. I think going forward, ron operations how Donald Trump did against isis in syria. That should be the methodology going forward. Very few boots on the ground, special operators only, lots of airstrikes and keep us from getting involved in another 20year war. We could have gotten out of afghanistan in a way they did not embarrass our country and we should have taken and there are 13 american families that would have preferred us to take that route. Laura what is your message to President Biden . He should resign, joint chiefs should resign. I look forward to being part of the class that expect the house in 2022 but im not sure how far the country will continue to fall before then. Laura thank you for your service.

I think this past year put so much into perspective and having to ask my students questions, i wonder why many white people didnt want black people to have an education. Another question was i wonder if my black students feel welcome in my classroom and questions like those targeting my integrity as a teacher. Im a Fourthgeneration Teacher so this was seconds to me. Sorry this destroyed a lineage in your family. One example that stood out from this is this request that you as a teacher reflect on the racial context of your daily activities. You can see one of the things is showering and brushing your teeth. How insulting is it that people of color, brushing your teeth and showering are white people things . I was taken aback by that assignment. I thought it was ridiculous. It lends itself to saying black people are unable to brush their teeth and take a shower in the same context that white people can. I dont the way to ends. Todd a statement from the district, quote, Manchester Public Schools recognizes its responsibility to address and great in a different ways issues that include racism, inequity, discrimination and systemic bias, we do so while practicing culturally responsible and relevant teaching. Whether you call It Equity or social justice, is really just covering up indoctrination on our students and on teachers, they pride themselves on equity as many do to be successful but not sure who is succeeding. When we do segments like this i know the town of manchester. Manchester is a middleclass middle america, Road Race every thanksgiving, it is a fun time. It is shocking it is happening there.

You hit the nail on the head in terms of this. That is why i left. Parents at this Point Need to speak up and say it is unacceptable that is taking place in their schools. There are many opportunities i have been involved in with the 1776 action and the Educator Pledge on their website at the pledge and i think there are statements and beliefs outlined clearly and giving people an opportunity to speak up and pledge they will keep it from taking place in classrooms. I hope this is in the end of the line in teaching the with the good news in connecticut we have a few catholic also hopefully you get a job at one of them and continue your passion.

The next guest leading a Task Force of veterans operating behind taliban lines and Lieutenant Colonel Scott man joins me and thank you for your service, how difficult is what you are trying to do and can you do this without intelligence capabilities in the military and State Department . We are not behind taliban lines but operating from all over the nation but not behind lines and doing what Green Berets have done for decades which is leveraging relationships and trust, putting it into play with modern technology and encrypted applications. When you have relationships and the ability to communicate there is no limitation. We are moving into more deliberate form of recovery. Jillian can you explain how you are doing this . This is unbelievable. Reporter one afghan commando is a friend of mine, a couple more Green Berets and Change Meat and a staffer, the we managed to guide this commando through the perimeter and get through a Hole In The Wall and other groups doing it. The valley boys, weve got hundreds through the perimeter of the airport Under Cover Of Darkness in three days and what weve done is shifted by talking to the Shepherd Concept where we leveraged relationship and look for opportunities to move them overland. Jillian how does it change now that our military is no longer there . Long before the conventional trend is what we specialize in. We dont have to be on the ground and the citizen liaison. You feel it was an important gap, we already helped get people out. It is working. To allow clandestine activities to continue and if that were to happen. Jillian to have Confidence Everyone who wants to get out will not get out to the help of groups like you or the government . The american people will take that negative energy, toward the resolve. We are getting people out. I have confidence in the american ball, showing us what leadership looks like. What they have done in the last 11 days. Scott man, impressive to hear you say that.

Americans get stranded in countries all the time, we do everything we can to facilitate safe passage. It is irresponsible to say americans are stranded. Carley ask the woman from california, the pregnant woman kicked in the stomach by the taliban, tried to get to the Airport And Darrell issa trying to get around, ask if she feels stranded in afghanistan. Todd the definition of the word stranded. Jillian President Biden said he would not leave afghanistan until every american who wanted to come out did come home. He made that comment it is head scratching. Jillian Carlos Jimenez says how badly do Nancy Pelosi and house democrats want to cover up the afghan debacle, they blocked members of congress from reading the names of the servicemembers who sacrificed their lives in afghanistan. Do you think our military deserves better. A group of republicans met on the house for yesterday, had a moment of silence, prayed and asked to recognize to read the names of afghanistan legislation and refuse to recognize them.

Todd President Biden calling the airlift of americans and have as an extra Nurse Success despite the Suicide Attack that claimed the lives of 13 servicemembers. The extraordinary success of this mission was to the skill and selfless courage of the united states military. Some say we should have started mass evacuations sooner. Could this have been done in a more orderly manner . I respectfully disagree. Todd Georgia Congressman buddy carter. What was your reaction to that speech . That had to be the epitome of spin. He called a success when it was a catastrophic failure. The worst Relations Debacle in the history of the country. Heres a president who set a week ago, he would not leave any american behind, this is despicable. The words that were coming out of his mouth. Kt mcfarland agrees with you, President Biden made the speech all about himself. He dodged and weaved, blamed others and claimed the evacuation from afghanistan was a great success, everyone else are it is in an indicated disaster. For someone who said the book stops with him this speech did the opposite. Obviously he has no grasp of reality. It will take years to get over this with our allies, our citizens, our morale is so low so many people told me i cant believe this is happening in america. We have an inept incompetent leader and it starts with President Biden and ends with President Biden and he should be impeached and there should be other people in this administration who should be gone, they should all be gone. An embarrassment to the united states of america but those who served in afghanistan, those who sacrifice, your service, your sacrifice was not in vain. We thank you for that. Just because this was a botched exit does not in any way diminish the great work you did in afghanistan. Todd a Clarification Or Break men and women need to hear. The white House Covid 19 is are urging businesses to encourage employees to be vaccinated. Take a listen. Bottom Line Vaccination requirements work, vaccination rates. To step up and do their part to end the pandemic. Todd is a member of the Doctors Caucus do you agree with what you heard . Our civil liberties are at risk and i believe we should educate and not mandate. I believe in the vaccine. I tried to set a good example. This is a decision that should be made between you and your physician, between you and your pharmacist, between you and your family, not between you and the government. This should be an individual decision. I encourage everyone to get the vaccine. It is safe. It is effective. I would rather have the vaccine than the virus but i dont believe it should be mandated. Todd what about Mask Mandates in schools. You are pretty fired up about that too. Absolutely. What are we teaching our children here . What impact is it having on them . What is the longterm effect . We discussed this in the Doctors Caucus, theres only one study that was done to see if this was beneficial and it was inconclusive. This was a decision that should be made between parents, children and not between parents and the government, thats not who should be making the decision. I encourage everyone get in touch with your physician, your pharmacist, Family Members or even a religious leader but it should not be mandated. How long does this battle over vaccines and masks dominate the national discussion . The biden administration, anything to take away the focus on afghanistan, ridiculous that members of Congress Call back in on a 3 Trillion socialist Wish List when we had everything going on that was going on in the world that we should have been focus on, they want to delay and stay for as much focus as they can. This will go down in history as the worst Formulations Debacle in the history of this country. Todd congressman buddy carter, appreciate your time.
