@EvanMilla Gawd! I thought I was the only one!

[Rep. Jason Crow @RepJasonCrow]

America mourns the service members killed by terrorists in Afghanistan today.

The 2400+ troops killed in last 20 years were on a mission, including during my combat tours.

Never once did we allow terrorists to stop a mission.

We must finish the evacuation.

@EvanMilla Hmmm … looks like a PR stunt! But let’s see …

Biden says human rights center of US policy. A hard sell tonight where im sitting outside the kabul airport.

[Azita Rahim @AzitaRahim]

@EvanMilla My parents did just that during the Russian occupation and here I am! Blaming the Afghan people is a coward move! Poor execution is an understatement! #prayforafghanistan

[Khaled Hosseini @khaledhosseini]

The United States has a moral obligation. Admit as many Afghan refugees as possible.

[Evan @EvanMilla]

If all Biden essentially does in his speech is blame Trump then that will be his legacy: the president that wasn't Trump. #Afghanistan

[BBC News (World) @BBCWorld]

Nobel peace laureate Malala Yousafzai, who was shot in the head by Taliban gunmen in 2012, says countries need to open their borders to Afghan refugees https://t.co/Fi4zRx8uQo

You better have some good fucking answers.

@RepJoshHarder @SenAlexPadilla @SenFeinstein @VP @POTUS As your constituent, I am urging you to do more to support our allies and the continuously growing number of displaced children, women, and innocent civilians in #Afghanistan. #HelpAfghanistanNow

[Wajahat Ali @WajahatAli]

Don't forget "saving Afghan women" was a justification for the US War on Terror. It was used by both the right and some on the left. Remember those women now. We can help them by accepting and supporting refugees and Afghan communities.

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

New fighting in Afghanistan has forced almost 300,000 people to flee their homes since the start of the year.

You can help provide life-saving support to Afghans in need during this heart breaking moment in time: https://t.co/H1J0L9P30k

[Kyle Becker @kylenabecker]

@SpeakerPelosi Your 'concern' for the brutal mistreatment of Afghans will be duly noted as the Taliban rapes and kills women and children.

[Curtis Morrison @curtismorrison]

We represent an Afghani immigrant visa applicant who, today, is burning the documents associated with his family’s US visa applications in preparation for rule under Taliban. There are no words for this.

[Khaled Hosseini @khaledhosseini]

“We do not count because we were born in Afghanistan . . . We’ll die slowly in history.” I am heartbroken. The women & girls of Afghanistan have been abandoned. What of their dreams, hopes? The rights they have fought two decades for? #PrayforAfghanistan

[Khaled Hosseini @khaledhosseini]

Some say the Taliban have changed. This is Herat, yesterday. These images might as well have been taken in 1997.

[Malala Yousafzai @Malala]

We watch in complete shock as Taliban takes control of Afghanistan. I am deeply worried about women, minorities and human rights advocates. Global, regional and local powers must call for an immediate ceasefire, provide urgent humanitarian aid and protect refugees and civilians.

@EvanMilla In the bag! Congrats!
