Don’t believe what the media is trying to tell you. The crisis in Afghanistan is far from over.

When Biden pulled our troops and allowed the Taliban to take over, he made it seem like a good idea. He even pretended like the Taliban was a bunch of good guys who would cooperate with us. Hell, his administration even gave this group of killers lists of American names, something some lawmakers considered treason.

Even as Biden withdrew our troops for the last time, leaving hundreds of Americans stranded, he called it a victory. His administration seemed to imply that those Americans stuck in Afghanistan wanted to be abandoned by their country.

Now, we are learning that several planes full of Americans are ready to leave. But the Taliban is holding them hostage.

CBS News reported that, according to congressional and NGO sources, “multiple planes that are ready to take American citizens and green card holders out of the country are being denied permission to leave by the Taliban.”…

A senior congressional source told CBS News, “The Taliban is basically holding them hostage to get more out of the Americans.”

The news comes after Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX), the ranking member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told Fox News during an interview on Sunday that the Taliban was basically holding people hostage.

“Since we pulled out, how many Afghan allies have gotten out since the Taliban was in complete control of the country?” Fox News anchor Chris Wallace asked.

“Zero,” McCaul responded. [Source: Daily Wire]

Biden was warned again and again. But he did not listen. The Idiot in Chief seemed to believe the words of the Taliban over his own military officials and seasoned lawmakers. Now, news is reaching us that the Taliban is preventing multiple planes full of Americans from leaving, in order to get more out of us.

What more could they want? Thanks to Joe Biden, the Taliban have billions of dollars worth of military equipment. That includes planes, tanks, trucks, and countless weapons. Thanks to Joe Biden, the Taliban easily took over Afghanistan, marching into Kabul unopposed.

Biden knew that the Taliban was amassing a force 10-15,000 strong, with support from Pakistan. Yet he pulled our troops, lying to the world that it was “very unlikely” the country would fall.

Now, Americans and Afghan allies are literally being held captive, because idiot Biden showed such cowardice and weakness.

What does this say to the rest of the world? That the United States, once a world power and leader of freedom, will bow to whatever despot, tyrant, and terrorist group that is out there. Because it’s just easier for Sleepy Joe than it is to fight.

Biden sold out America for his own self-interests and ego. Who knows what disaster will happen next?
