“Stop messing around,” Bret wants to convey this message to Biden’s administration.
The evacuation plan by the Biden administration in Afghanistan has everyone scratching their heads.
While most major media outlets are trying to pin the blame for this on Trump, Fox News’ Bret Baier was having none of it this week.
During a recent segment, Baier excoriated the Biden administration for this entire debacle. Bret Baier, a Fox News host, slammed Joe Biden and his administration for their response to the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan on Tuesday.
While appearing on Fox News, Baier weighed in on this, in part, stating, “I was stunned… From my analysis point of view, if the plan is that you’re going to tell more than 10,000 Americans who are scattered throughout Afghanistan, Kabul and other cities to make it to the airport and trust that the ring of Taliban fighters who surround the airport are suddenly going to get the word from their leaders to let them in and not have any problems, and that’s the White House plan, that’s stunning to me.
“I think there are a number of things said in that press briefing that just shocked me.
“I think the false equivalence that you had the decision – leave 2,500 troops, get the evacuation to happen and then pull the troops out, keep Bagram Airbase, once you lost Bagram Airbase and the air cover for the Afghan security forces, all of that changes the dynamic.
“And now you are trusting the Taliban who just recently put out a statement saying, ‘Death to America’ in the past few weeks.”
On Monday night, in an address from the White House Biden tried to defend himself.
Biden said, according to CNBC, “I stand squarely behind my decision. After 20 years I’ve learned the hard way that there was never a good time to withdraw U.S. forces,I am president of the United States of America. The buck stops with me.”
