Deja vu? Military veterans help evacuate Americans out of Ukraine
[HotAir] The Daily Mail has an exclusive story about a group of American military veterans who are helping evacuate Americans in Ukraine. A group of 23 American citizens spoke with the news outlet as they were being transported from Kyiv to Romania.

A group called Project Dynamo is helping Americans leave Ukraine as war with Russia breaks out across the country. The photo above is one of the U.S. embassy in Kyiv on January 24. The Biden administration, the guys that caused the debacle in Afghanistan
...the gang of subgeniuses trying to pass themselves off as the adults in charge of the series of calamities characteristic of the administration of a mentally challenged geriatric case...
began calling for Americans to leave Ukraine, telling them to make their own arrangements to get out. The State Department made it clear that there would not be a coordinated effort coming from the administration for evacuation.

Does this story sound familiar? There is a deja vu vibe with this story. Project Dynamo answered the calls of American citizens, legal residents, and Afghan helpers desperate to get out of Afghanistan when the Biden administration ended its evacuation efforts in that country. Project Dynamo has experience in this kind of rescue operation. Bryan Stern, a 23-year Army and Navy veteran saved 2,000 people in Kabul last year with Project Dynamo, a group of volunteers.

The group of 23 American citizens are being transported by two vehicles from Kyiv to Romania, a minibus and a car. Stern arranged for their transportation. They began their journey shortly after 5:00 am as "missiles fell from the sky". It is a 300 mile trip. The are taking quieter and smaller roads in order to evade Russian troops, fighter jets and thousands of other evacuees clogging the streets in their own cars. If you are watching the situation on cable news coverage, you’ve probably seen cameras pointing to traffic caused by all of those who are able to leave Ukrainian cities in their cars. Not everyone has the means to do so, though.

The State Department estimates there are between 10,000 to 30,000 Americans in Ukraine. This is the first rescue of its kind that has been reported.

#1 With what?, 4+/- months warning....of a USSR/UKRAINIAN WAR... anyone still there, chose to be there, deaf, blind & can't read, or had $$$$$$ interests to liquidate before hauling butt.

This evac won't be totally on Biden... like it was last time.
