Joe Biden has just made himself look like the weakest United States president in history.
Amid numerous reports of a possible deal and/or extension, Biden has now caved to Taliban pressure.
It was announced earlier today that Joe Biden will NOT extend the August 31 deadline to have troops off the ground in Afghanistan.
Early Reports
Earlier today, we reported on two different rumors that were floating around.
The first was that the CIA boss had secretly met with the Taliban, presumably to secure an extension.
There were also rumors that a possible payout was in the works or had been made to secure that deadline.
Either way, both are moot at this point because Joe Biden has just put everyone’s life on the clock.
With the Pentagon reportedly giving Joe Biden 24 hours to decide if he will extend or have all boots off the ground by August 31, Fox News is reporting that Biden has decided against extending the deadline.
Pentagon says number of U.S. troops in Afghanistan will go to 'zero' at Aug. 31 deadline. Unclear who will protect last Americans leaving. 'There's no question,' Taliban will help complete evacuation, Kirby says. Months ago, plan was to keep 650 U.S. troops at U.S. Embassy Kabul.

It has been widely projected that there is simply no way all Afghan friendlies and US citizens can be evacuated by that time, which means people will undoubtedly be left to fend for themselves once all the troops are gone.
Unless Biden is able to pull off some miracle with the help of our allies, there will be blood on his hands.
And you better believe if it can be proven that a single American has been harmed at the hands of the Taliban (or by anyone, for that matter), there will be a very strong push to impeach Biden.
