Kirby works for a man who looks us in the eye and tells us things that he and we know are blatantly false with not a trace of shame. TD
"A retired Marine who executed many civilian rescues from Afghanistan offered a blistering rebuttal to National Security Council spokesman John Kirby and his presentation of the Biden administration's after-action report, calling the retired admiral's presentation "a national tragedy."
"Kirby held an at-times confrontational press conference Thursday where he defended the Biden administration's withdrawal as largely successful and noted the after-action report's purpose was "not accountability."
"The purpose of the document that we're putting out today is to sort of collate the chief reviews and findings of the age.
""For all this talk of chaos. I just didn't see it. Not from my perch," Kirby said later in the presser, adding that at one point in the evacuation, planes were departing Hamid Karzai International Airport every 48 minutes with Afghans and Americans alike aboard."
Well, there was the sudden unannounced bugout and the leaving of vast stores of military equipment; the bodies falling from transport planes and the explosive that killed a dozed US military personnel. Was there nothing about this entire failure that would lead Admiral Kirby to resign on principle father than defend it before the world? TD
