Biden Administration
Rep. Issa: US families ‘scared, stranded, and trapped in the Kabul area’ Americans stranded in Afghanistan say they cannot reach the Kabul airport and that the Biden administration has been ineffective in quickly addressing emergency requests, according to Rep. Darrell Issa (R., Calif.), whose office has been scrambling in recent days to aid several California residents trapped in the country.
The families “are scared, stranded, and trapped in the Kabul area,” Issa spokesman Jonathan Wilcox told the Washington Free Beacon on Thursday. “So far, they’ve been unable to reach the airport. I know [White House press secretary] Jen Psaki has previously said this isn’t happening, but she’s dead wrong.”
Psaki on Tuesday said that any American who wants to leave Kabul can and that the effort cannot be called “anything but a success.” The White House says all Americans will be flown out of the country by the Aug. 31 deadline to depart, but experts and others on the ground maintain this may not be possible. As the Taliban tightens its grip on Kabul, it has become increasingly dangerous, and in some cases impossible, for those stranded to travel to the city’s airport.
Issa’s team is attempting to work with the State Department, Department of Defense, and the White House to aid these Americans, who traveled to the country months before the Taliban took control. The State Department, which is supposed to be coordinating emergency evacuations, has been “way too slow and way too ineffective,” according to Wilcox.
Information collected by Issa’s staff from these Americans indicates that the Biden administration’s claim that any U.S. citizen stuck in the country can come home is not true. Issa’s office secured the evacuation of two families on Thursday afternoon, though others remain trapped.
The Taliban is preventing Americans and others from reaching the airport, which is the only location to board an emergency flight. The already chaotic situation became deadly on Thursday, when two explosions went off near the airport, reportedly killing 12 U.S. troops and wounding 15 others. The ISIS terror group, which has ramped up its presence in the country since the […]

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
