150 U.S. Military working dogs abandoned at Kabul Airport as last plane leaves
[CFP] There was room on the planes. They were released on the tarmac today.

.@DeptofDefense has ordered ALL military working dogs to be left behind in #Afghanistan. They also said any Americans left there are free to leave whenever they want. WTFO?!?!@SecBlinken, @AmbRice46, @JoeBiden & all the top generals should be arrested now! This is not American!

In awe of our Sky Dragon Soldiers.

This was an incredibly tough, pressurized mission filled with multiple complexities, with active threats the entire time. Our troops displayed grit, discipline and empathy.

#10 I am to take these numbers at face value, just like COVID magic numbers. Because they are being reported by the gummint and corporate media.

You can, with discontent.
Or research and reference more credible sources.

You got your ROEs and your legals,
I'm all reflex, you stupid cunt.
I'm the one who itches to rush
while you take cover, grunt.

I sniff out the piss hiding in a man,
It's me who berserks when shit's hit the fan
many would say mine is the working plan.
And you leave me here, but take the Afgh-an?

Motherfuckers, I am a dog. But
I'm closer to God than you'll ever be.

#3 I'd bring the dogs back before I'd bring back the NGO personnel. Sure, we want to get them all, but it is a matter of priorities.

#2 Impeach and then prosecute the Secretary of Defense and Biden. By the way. What is it about the Dems penchant abandoning dogs (ref Gov Cuomo as well)?
