#2 Months after U.S. government flights ceased, 39 American citizens and legal permanent residents were rescued by a two-man covert team, flying on a privately funded plane out of Taliban-controlled Kabul. The group, sponsored by the non-profit Project Dynamo, is expected to land at New York’s John F. Kennedy International airport by 9 AM on Saturday morning.
“They did encounter the Taliban, but luckily…I don’t know how far I want to get into that,” said James Judge, a spokesperson for Project Dynamo, to Zenger.

#8 Biden has 2nd stage dementia. And clearly our ChiCom/Pravda MSN think we do too.

These 39 abandoned Americans, can you imagine what they must think of the senile pedphile dicktatter and his babbling press corps now?

In fairness to Jo Jo I doubt he remembers showering with his 4 year old daughter. Probably remembers the way her hair smelled.

All of which means nothing at this point to the unknown remaining Americans and Afghans currently being hunted down by the islamic hordes.
