American embassy staff in Afghanistan were apprised by the State Department to leave the embassy and make their way to Kabul airport.  Staffers reported being jostled, hit, spat on and cursed at by Taliban fighters at checkpoints near the airport.  Some staff members reported that they were almost separated from their children, while others collapsed in a crush of people and had to be taken to hospitals with injuries.  Others said they had collapsed on the road because of heat exhaustion.  “It would be better to die under the Taliban’s bullet” than face the crowds again, a staff member was quoted as saying in a State Department cable.  “Happy to die here, but with dignity and pride," according to ''[[NBC News]]''.<ref>https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/afghan-staff-u-s-embassy-losing-faith-evacuation-efforts-diplomatic-n1277397</ref>  Meanwhile, back at the White House, chief propagandist Jen Psaki said: “It’s irresponsible to say that Americans are stranded.”<ref>https://youtu.be/CNxVzQo0Z8s</ref>

:'''Sullivan.''' This is, ah, I think, a very good example of the difficult choices a president faces and a secretary of defense and secretary of state and national security adviser face in the context of the end of a 20-year war.  Those Blackhawks were not given to the Taliban they were given to the Afghan National Security forces to be able to defend themselves at the specific request to President Ghani who came to the Oval Office and asked for additional air capability among other things. So the president had a choice he could not give it to them with the risk that it would fall into the Taliban's hands eventually or he could give it to them with the hope that they could deploy it in service of defending their country. Both of those options had risks he had to choose and he made a choice and from the point of view of that, uh, particular narrow example to a, for a, much wider range of examples that we contend with at the end of the day what the president has focused on all the way through here is trying to take the information that's been presented to him, the risks, costs and benefits of,<ref>"Cost-benefit analysis is a Republican spending reform of the Reagan era.</ref> and make decisions that were in the best national security interests of the American people.
