Enough is enough nine months the majority has encouraged, incentivized, paid, pleaded, pacified a minority in this country to get vaccinated. We are the only country that has willfully ignored the availability of a vaccine to protect itself this egregiously. Think about that. From first to worst. Why . The reality . Too many too often for bad reason refused to keep themselves and others safe. Is that their choice . Yes. But mandates like this are controversial, right . Why . We dont like the government telling us what to do. But, of course, it does, right . Wear a seat belt, right . You Cant Blow Smoke in my face in enclosed places anymore, right . You Cant Drink and drive, right . Too much of the controversy here is just oppositional animus, not about good policy, and certainly not about science. The majority cannot have their freedoms infringed upon by those who refuse to do what is right. Yes, you have the right not to take the vaccine. That is your choice. But that doesnt mean the
The u. S. Capitol police delivered a Security Briefing to a senior House Republican Today where they discussed Security Preparations for the rally planned for September 18th in support of those arrested during the January 6th insurrection. The briefing was delivered to congressman rodney davis. A similar briefing had already been given to a senior house democrat. All this as d. C. Police Officer Michael Fanone returned to work in what the department said was limited duty. Officer fanone, youll remember, was zapped with a taser, beaten in the head, called congressmen who downplayed the riots both gis graceful and disgusting. The news continues. Lets hand it over to chris for cuomo prime time. I appreciate it, coop. Welcome to the covid command center. Good for President Biden for saying today what the majority of the reasonable people in this country on the right and left from north to south, east to west, rich and poor, what has been said all along. Enough is enough. Nine months the ma
Cooperate and allow access to the airport. Thus far the taliban have been taking steps to work with us so we can get our people out. Theres a reality that the taliban is currently controlling large swaths of afghanistan. The taliban has made public and private commitments to provide an permit Safe Passage to americans and work with them. Greg reports from the ground show little desire for cooperation. Antony blinken doing more Damage Control the day. There could be other Americans In Afghanistan Who never enroll in the embassy, who ignored public Evacuation Notice and have not yet identified themselves to us. We also found that many people who contact us and identify themselves as american citizens including by filling out and submitting Repatriation Assistance forms are not, in fact, u. S. Citizens, something i can take some time to verify. Some americans may choose to stay in afghanistan, some who are enrolled and some who are not, this effort does not end on August 31st, it will con
Were going to stay until we get them all out. He did not fully extend that same commitment to afghan nationals when he said thats the objective. Its unclear how many americans remain in afghanistan. Yesterday u. S. Officials gave differing answers. They said it was 5 to 10,000. Yesterday afternoon Jen Psaki said it was in fact 11,000 and congressional aides were told by State Department and pentagon officials the number was between 10 and 15,000 according to three sources familiar with those briefings. That is the number the president said tonight. He also answered questions about the execution of the pullout. Sir, you dont think this could have been handled better in any way . No mistakes . No. I dont think it could have been handled in a way that there were going to go back in hindsight and look, but the idea that somehow theres a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing, i dont know how that happens. I dont know how that happened. So for you that was always priced into the decis
Department warning as many as 15,000 americans stuck in taliban country they cant ensure safe passage to get them to the Kabul Airport and fly them out . You must demand that the mightiest force on the planet does not surrender its own to this kind of fate from a bunch of zealot thugs. [ gunfire ] thats what you want your countrymen to surrender to . The State Department should not be warning the desperate. The warning is a desperate one to the State Department and this administration. You had been do what you have to to get americans out. What does this country stand for, if not committing completely to protecting its own . Another bad sign, the administration seems to be allowing the taliban to dictate terms here. Were going to get everyone that we can possibly evacuate evacuated. And ill do that as long as we possibly can until the clock runs out or we run out of capability. We will get out as many as possible. Clock runs out when you say it runs out. And as many as possible is all
