Another LIE from the Trumpsters Fairy Tale Party

You asked for proof that General Milley said that Biden imposed conditions that left him no choice but to close Bagram AFB and I gave you direct quotes from Milley. True to form, you criticized the source of the quote and then posted articles that in no way refute what Milley said himself. You are the worst kind of liar - or maybe second worst kind of liar - right after your soul mate Cardfan1. Stop wasting my time asking for evidence. You have no interest in the truth.
Dr Quooter it's the transcript from General Milley in other words it's from him direct not from some right wing media
"GEN. MILLEY: On your question of Bagram, securing Bagram, you know how big Bagram is. You've been there many times. Securing Bagram is a significant level of military effort of forces, and it would also require external support from the Afghan Security Forces. 
Our task given to us at that time, our task was protect the embassy in order for the embassy personnel to continue to function with their consular service and all that. If we were to keep both Bagram and the embassy going, that would be a significant number of military forces that would have exceeded what we had or stayed the same or exceeded what we had.
So we had to collapse one or the other, and a decision was made. The proposal was made form CENTCOM commander and the commander on the grounds, Scott Miller, to go ahead and collapse Bagram. That was all briefed and approved, and we estimated that the risk of going out of HKIA or the risk of going out of Bagram about the same, so going out of HKIA -- was estimated to be the better tactical solution in accordance with the mission set we were given and in accordance with getting the troops down to about 600, 700 number."

Now what about the other LIE ?
