A govenment of the people, by the people, for the people is not a two-party plutocracy where corporations and the uber-wealthy control the government and control the very narrative we hear every day. It's a war between personal freedom and liberty versus authoritarianism and tyranny.

President Biden promises DEVASTATING FORCE if Taliban attack US troops
American troops are performing this mission as professionally and as effectively as they always do, but it is not without risks.
As we carry out this departure we have made it clear to the Taliban if
they attack our personnel or disrupt our operation the U.S. presence will be swift and the response will be Swift and Forceful we would defend our people with devastating force if necessary. Our current military mission we shortened time limited scope and focused in its objectives, get our people and our allies safely as quickly as possible and once we have completed this mission we will conclude our military withdrawal. Will end America's longest war after 20 long years of bloodshed the events we're seeing now are sadly proof that no amount of military force would ever deliver a stable united secure Afghanistan, as known in history as the graveyard of Empires.
What's happening now could just as easily happened five years ago,
or 15 years in the future.
We have to be honest, our mission in Afghanistan has taken many missteps, made many missteps over the past two decades.
I'm now the fourth American President to preside over war in Afghanistan, two democrats and two republicans, I will not pass this responsibly on to a fifth President, I will not mislead the American people, by claiming that just a little more time
in Afghanistan will make all the difference, nor will I shrink from my share of responsibility for where we are today and how we must move forward from here.
I am President of the United States of America, and the Buck stops with me! I'm deeply saddened by the facts we now face, but I do not regret my decision to end America's war fighting in Afghanistan and
maintain a laser focus on our counter-terrorism missions there in
Our mission to degrade the terrorist threat of Al Qaeda in Afghanistan and kill Osama bin Laden was a success. Our decades-long effort to overcome centuries of history and permanently change and remake Afghanistan was not, and I wrote and believed it never could be, I cannot and will not ask our troops to fight on endlessly
another in another country's civil war, taking casualties, suffering life-shattering injuries, leaving families broken by grief and loss.
This is not in our national security interest, it is not what the American people want, it is not what our troops who have sacrificed so much over the past two decades deserve.
I made a commitment to the American people when I ran for President that I would bring America's military involvement in
Afghanistan to an end. While it's been hard and messy and yes far from Perfect. I've honored that commitment, more importantly I made a commitment to the brave men and women who served this nation, that I wasn't going to ask them to continue to risk their lives in a military action that should have ended long ago.
Our leaders did that in Vietnam when I got here as a young man I will not do it in Afghanistan. I know my decision will be criticized,
but I would rather take all that criticism than pass this decision on to another President of the United States, yet another one a fifth one because it's the right one it's the right decision for our people, the right one for our brave service members to risk their lives serving our Nation.
That's the right one for America.
Thank you, may God protect our Troops our Diplomats and all brave Americans serving in harm's way.
Interesting Twist on any attempt of success to be called a Failure, I wonder what Donnie's excuse Is... Hmmm maybe that he was Fired before he would do the same...?
