White House Spokesperson Jen Psaki clashed with Fox News reporter Peter Doocy over the latter’s question of whether Joe Biden was aware that most of the criticism against the US withdrawal from Afghanistan was about Americans "stranded" in Kabul.

🗣 "I think it's irresponsible to say Americans are stranded. They are not. We are committed to bringing Americans who want to come home, home," the White House press secretary observed.

🇦🇫 US Rep. Liz Cheney accused the Biden White House of lying about the brutal circumstances facing many Americans trying to leave Afghanistan, saying that some have been “beaten” by members of the Taliban.

🗣 “The fact that we're now somehow relying on the Taliban to protect Americans, and the White House is denying what we know is happening on the ground - which is that Americans are being beaten, they're being prevented from getting to the gates of the airport, and they are probably being held hostage,” Cheney said during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press”.
