Breaking: U.S. Troops Are Now Evacuating Afghanistan

In response to the Mayhem the Biden Admin caused with this failed evacuation, they did send in 5000 troops to help get American citizens out of the country. So there is a military presence in Afghanistan, but according to a recent report, they are now starting to evacuate military personnel. Looks like American citizens don’t have much time left to get out of Dodge.

“Several hundred US troops have left Afghanistan, on the same day President Joe Biden decided not to extend the August 31 evacuation deadline, Pentagon press secretary John Kirby confirmed Tuesday evening.

“These troops represent a mix of headquarters staff, maintenance, and other enabling functions that were scheduled to leave and whose mission at the airport was complete. Their departure represents prudent and efficient force management. It will have no impact on the mission at hand,” Kirby said in a statement, confirming earlier reporting from two defense officials that the US troop withdrawal from Afghanistan had kicked off.

The fact that a small number of American troops have already left underlines how quickly the situation is moving. The pace of evacuations has rapidly ramped up in recent days but with a week until Biden’s deadline, the US military will soon be forced to switch from transporting Americans and Afghans out to concentrating on safely moving all the troops out and winding down the security operation at the airport.

“So far, the reduction does not affect the mission,” one of the officials said, adding that the commander on the ground can decide what military personnel are in units that are no longer required. That decision can be based on a few factors, including the number of gates open at the airport, the number of people coming through, and more.

“If you can have a smaller mission set and still conduct the mission, then you can reduce your footprint and reduce your risk,” the official said.”

So the story is that only a select number of troops are leaving, but there is no telling how true that is. Biden is a professional screwup. So he may end up actually abandoning Americans here for good.
