This is as good as it gets, and it ain't gonna get this good again.

I wish, President Biden declared marshal law and stepped outside the Constitution to preserve it.
We needed a hero, instead all the Marvel Superhero's are off saving a different world in a different dimension while our planet burns.
We need someone to lead the Dems.
An MLK for today.

Heartbroken.

mrlky.bsky.social•33 days ago

Hard to believe this is actually legal as many had been approved for status all ready

spa-bsky.bsky.social•33 days ago

They’re probably relieved to stay in Afghanistan!

dublinblues.bsky.social•33 days ago

This is an example of what stressed me out and upset me in his previous regime—the cruelty. He cancelled all appointments for asylum seekers as well. He and his little Nazi Stephen Miller are unbelievably cruel.

deepsydreamy.bsky.social•33 days ago

All those that kept saying but but Guzzah and didn’t vote, or voted for this FAFO🙄

daughterofwitches.bsky.social•33 days ago

As a person that teaches Afghan middle schoolers, we are worse off without these people.

They are everything we claim to be and giving them a safe place to land would make us a better and stronger nation.

jtrott.bsky.social•33 days ago

There is a french term I would like to see associated with these actions: Salauds sans Cœurs.

Heartless Bastards.

One in twenty-five persons is a sociopath. Clearly that ratio is significantly higher amongst politicians and preachers.

jtrott.bsky.social•33 days ago

Sociopaths gotta path.

pbgfler.bsky.social•33 days ago

It’s just begun

chocolatepudding28.bsky.social•33 days ago

So it begins….😑🤬

5miriam9.bsky.social•33 days ago

Heartless mofos.

quitmin.bsky.social•33 days ago

The article highlights a disturbing trend, but let's focus on the humanity behind the headlines. Separating families is a consequence of flawed policies, not a cause of action. It's time to address the root issues, not just the symptoms.

Cruelty is the point

leavesfalling.bsky.social•33 days ago

Didn’t frumpty dumpty rail against democrats, accusing them of leaving Afghans behind?

lwprodemoc.bsky.social•33 days ago

Here comes the cruelty.

julmm.bsky.social•33 days ago

Heartless.

spillanemj.bsky.social•33 days ago

They didn’t win so Trump thinks they’re losers

cer404.bsky.social•33 days ago

4 years of stupid has begun.

avezina.bsky.social•33 days ago

These people kept us safe, they were our translators and guides in Afghanistan, unacceptable.

grumblekitty.bsky.social•33 days ago

When do we expect the Taliban at a state dinner?

demlatino.bsky.social•33 days ago

Soon, I'm sure.

mwplunkett.bsky.social•31 days ago

Felon trump has no rational concept of what helps America but why should he, his dad loved Nazis and klansmen.

solmidog.bsky.social•33 days ago

Could help to radicalize some people

navtbrat.bsky.social•33 days ago

Cruel. How is it they weren’t on US soil before the inauguration?

kenroth.bsky.social•33 days ago

It's like a contest- what's the cruelest thing can be done by each department of govt.

brenda62123.bsky.social•33 days ago

Yah Trumps the best isn’t he?

annramseymusic.bsky.social•33 days ago

Sicko

10slvr.bsky.social•33 days ago

Why weren’t they flown in before today?!?!????🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️💔

firsk.bsky.social•33 days ago

This will be a great selling point when next we need assistance anywhere around the world.

Like he did with the Kurds- help America, get abandoned.

starfishies.bsky.social•33 days ago

It is awful but this is what Americans voted for. He is an unkind petty and vindictive man. This is what America wants.

kathleen53.bsky.social•33 days ago

To be clear, a plurality of Americans voted for this vile being. Many Americans do not want him, his boot-licking sycophants, or his disgusting, anti-American, antidemocratic policies or executive orders.

catpushmike.bsky.social•33 days ago

If love to see another country intervene.

goldbud63.bsky.social•33 days ago

Bastards, all of them.

Quelle surprise.

msmilack75.bsky.social•33 days ago

sadistic

mouknow.bsky.social•33 days ago

This is a slap in the face to all the veterans that were helped by them and backed their arrival to the U.S.

missyko.bsky.social•33 days ago

JFC

marquard.bsky.social•33 days ago

The US is loosing power not standing by allies! Like the Kurds in Syria and Iraq that was also left behind. Power and trust goes hand in hand.

breck-storm.bsky.social•33 days ago

And it's less than 12 hours into a 4 year sentence.

kbeindivisible.bsky.social•33 days ago

🤬

coopgrl.bsky.social•33 days ago

This kind of thing is the stomach turning stuff I was most afraid of. We have four years of the meanest, nastiest shit an American government can dream up.

What pisses me off even more is the vast majority of idiots who voted for this will remain supremely ignorant of all the damage being done.

yanaarlee.bsky.social•33 days ago

please stop blaming the voters! the voters wanted Kamala, Elon picked trump, the corrupt Electoral College and Russian bot farms did the rest.

bterrier71.bsky.social•33 days ago

He has 0 respect for the military. The translators risked their lives working with American forces

mrlky.bsky.social•33 days ago

That’s Zero with a capital Z

shuntbump.bsky.social•33 days ago

Irredeemable, deplorable comes to mind

webb1701.bsky.social•33 days ago

That fucking asshole; how their lives could've been changed

stephob26.bsky.social•33 days ago

Not only vindictive but stupid. These people are fleeing the Taliban. Does tiny hands ( I refuse to use his name) approve of the Taliban now?

cer404.bsky.social•33 days ago

They endorsed him and he released thousands of them from prison.

stephob26.bsky.social•33 days ago

He’s planning to cut masses of aid that supports NGOs there. I wonder if they will still love him then?

baja-hacker.bsky.social•33 days ago

The cruelty is just getting started . . .

parr4golfer.bsky.social•33 days ago

I have two Afghan refugee girls in my high school ESL class. I am so glad their family is here in Memphis. They are so thankful to be here, too

incandenzak.bsky.social•33 days ago

This is fucked

joannekuhns.bsky.social•33 days ago

Is this something that can be fought on legal grounds, similar to the case against Trump's Muslim ban at the beginning of his 2017 term?
