        California green card holders left behind in Afghanistan take turns sleeping so they can grab their children if Taliban approach. A Texas grandmother watches Taliban drag men from a neighbor’s house. Another Texan is warned, “We know where you are.”http://apne.ws/wBZ62ZF

        So AP... You are missing the real story here: Who are these American citizens? Why are they there? Why did they not leave weeks before the exit when EVERYONE knew it it was time to leave? Do some investigative journalism or leave it to those that will.

        Interesting considering they were told to leave way back in what, March? Stop blaming Biden.
