There are some very brave and capable Afghan Special Forces units and soldiers and if Afghanistan is unable to mount any real resistance of the Taliban now, there is no chance that one year, one more year, five more years, or 20 more…

We planned for every contingency, but I always promised the American people that I will be straight with you. The truth is, this did unfold more quickly than we had anticipated.

No, I don`t. Look, are you telling me that we should go into China because -- go to war with China because what they`re doing to the Uyghurs, a million Uyghurs in the west in concentration camps?

So I'm left again to ask of those who argue that we should stay. How many more generations of America's daughters and sons would you have me send the fight Afghanistan's Civil War where Afghan troops will not? How many more lives…

The likelihood there`s going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely. We have trained and equipped a standing force of over 300,000 Afghan personnel today. There`s going to be no…

I stand squarely behind my decision. After 20 years, I’ve learned the hard way that there was never a good time to withdraw U.S. forces. How many more lives, American lives, is it worth? How many endless rows of headstones at Arlington…

I stand squarely behind my decision. We were clear-eyed about the risks. We planned for every contingency, but I always promised the American people that I would be straight with you. The truth is this did unfold more quickly than we had…

I will not send another generation of Americans to war in Afghanistan with no reasonable expectation of achieving a different outcome.

They got to fight for themselves, fight for their nation.

Just short while ago the United States Senate passed the Infrastructure Investment and JOBS Act. This historic investment infrastructure is what I believe you the American people want what you`ve been asking for a long, long time. This…

I think the man Biden need to fall back, man. I see he snatched the troops up out of Afghanistan. And I think he`s just leading to a lot of innocents being killed.

Because you have the Afghan troops have 300,000 well-equipped, as well-equipped as any army in the world, but they`ve got to want to fight.

Bernie says -- and he says he wrote the damn thing. But he's unwilling to tell us what the damn thing is going to cost.

I know there are a lot of people out there trying to turn a public safety measure -- that is, children wearing masks in school so they can be safe -- into a political dispute.

Our health care workers are heroes. They were the heroes when there was no vaccine. To the mayors, school superintendents, educators, local leaders who are standing up to the governors politicizing mass protection for our kids. Thank you…

In the past 24 hours we`ve seen the Senate advanced to keep pieces of my economic agenda, historic investments are on the way as well. This is an accidental, they`ll make a huge difference for families, and they`re going to be fully paid…

I think it`s great that he`s testifying now. It`s important that we learn the truth about these failed efforts by Trump to find a way to subvert the election which ultimately left him in his mind with no option other than to go forward…

That we`re effectively run in this country via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs by a bunch of childless cat ladies.
