While Smith claims May 1st is "too soon," the Pentagon said on Tuesday that they are ready to meet the deadline if President Biden orders the withdrawal.
Even if the date is too soon they could start leaving NOW. If the Taliban starts killing US troops again the withdrawal won't be so tidy.
I remember Tucker talking to some guy who gave lots of reasons why we should not leave. Instead of arguing Tucker said "Assuming everything you said is true, won't they still be true in 15 years?"
