    Why is it the government's job to get out private citizens that willingly traveled to the country? It's the government's job to get military and government employees out.

    Republicans asking for the government to be travel agents. Good ole party of personal responsibility and small government. Right.

    That's like the main purpose of an embassy, to help and protect their citizens in said country.

    In case you forgot we DID have an embassy there until fuckhead fucked everything up.

    You're acting like these Americans sneaked into North Korea or something and are now expecting the US government to rescue them. Get your shit together and stop shilling for the ghoul.

    "Travel agents." For fuck's sake. You fell for fake news article after fake news article in regards to Trump, but when actual events take place where Biden fucked up in every possible conceivable way you still manage to find a way to defend him.

    It's okay for you to be honest about how much of a fuckup Biden is, it doesn't mean you now like Trump.

    Why is it important to show up for work just to collect a paycheck, guys?

    An embassy is there to provide information, services and to offer shelter. This woman and others ignored the information being provided by the State Department to pursue their own agendas. They chose to stay. Again, a free society doesn't mean that the government has the right to abduct its citizens in another country. It asks, they declined. Imagine the inarticulate shrieking you'd be doing if military personnel held guns to their heads and ordered them to board airplanes and helicopters leaving the country.

    Get real.

    Holy shit you are dramatically understating the main purpose of embassies in order to carry Biden's water even farther than you already are. You think an embassy is just fucking 411 for citizens?

    We had an official diplomatic mission in Afghanistan. You and Alfster keep acting like these Americans were crossing over into North Korea then got into trouble.

    Facts:

    The US had an embassy in Afghanistan
    US embassies are supposed to help American citizens in said country
    Biden purposefully lied to the whole world when he said the Afghan army could hold off the Taliban when his own intelligence told him a few months at best
    Biden created an absolute clusterfuck by funneling EVERY fleeing person into one small airport in the largest city in the country
    Biden said he would evacuate every American, he failed at that
    Biden fucked up this withdrawal so bad that only fiction writers could have written something this absurd

    Not facts:

    Whatever dumb shit you keep saying

    I'm not defending Biden. Lol. I've already stated in here that this is mismanaged from the he start. Hell. He promised to get everyone out and didn't manage to live up to the promise. Thats entirely on his administration.

    I just would think therea a bit of Personal responsibility in all of this
