Mike Pompeo: Biden's weakness puts American lives at risk in Afghanistan. We can't leave anyone behind

The Biden administration must make clear to the Taliban that U.S. troops will not leave Afghanistan until every American citizen is safely able to leave. 

The safety of Americans in Afghanistan is now reliant on the Taliban, not the U.S. government.  That is inexcusable.  Billions of dollars’ worth of us military equipment and materiel is now in the hands of the Taliban and hundreds of known terrorists who have been set free in the country. The United States will need to reckon with these consequences for years to come. Right now, though, the most urgent problem, the issue of getting all Americans out of Afghanistan safely, looms large.
