Democratic lawmaker says US military isn't responsible for getting Americans to Kabul airport safely
A Democratic lawmaker on the House Armed Services Committee said Thursday that the U.S. military is not responsible for guaranteeing the safety of American citizens still trapped in Afghanistan after the Taliban took control of the country.
Rep. John Garamendi (D-Calif.) told CNN in an interview that "it makes no sense whatsoever" to send U.S. troops into Kabul to extract American citizens or residents who have so far been unable to travel through Taliban checkpoints to the international airport for extraction.
