Or involved in this attack. obviously what happened today and the loss of lives of u.s. service members is a tragedy, horrific, one of the worst things if not the worst thing we have experienced after president bidens time in office. we will not have any additional assessment at this point. >> reporter: just a few things to clarify, he talked about about getting people after the 31st out. is there a plan to get u.s. forces out by august 31st? >> secretary psaki: nothing is changed on that timeli...

Very, very terrible news. we can confirm that four marines were killed in the attack this morning outside of kabul airport and four wounded seriously. >> sandra: our thoughts and prayers for those families of our marines. jennifer, you have been covering this since day one. your thoughts at this moment? we know that the president has been huddled in the situation room. we are waiting. the press secretary at the white house, we have not yet heard from her. that was also on the schedule, that has ...

3 oclock. and hes going to be the first one out of the gate and let the american people know what happens now? this is an active military situation and we are now under attack. so, what is the response from the white house? what is the response from the commander in chief? and once this news continues to sink in and it is going to take some time. but what do we do is the big military action question. >> john: i dont know how the president doesnt come out and say something. the question is, marth...

We are not requesting, we are telling you. by the way, we are going after every isis and al qaeda position in afghanistan before we leave. if youre saying youre going after them to hunt them down while youre pulling all your troops out on tuesdays probably not a big threat. we will stay until we got the people who did this to us and we are going to take them out and if you interfere, youre going to regret it. >> bret: panel, thank you very much. todays tragic bombings being described as a coordi...

With the nation with what is going on over there. so, i dont know what to expect from him. but i agree 100% this is a chance to say that the taliban failed and this august 31st is out the window and we are going to secure every american and get them out of there. it is a reset opportunity and hopefully, the president takes it. >> john: if the taliban were to launch an attack against u.s. forces trying to evacuate people, there would be a robust response. this appears to come from a separate grou...

Yes, garrett, you can almost imagine the voices that will say that this process, this evacuation process should have started earlier to sort of avoid the situation that unfolding this morning. president biden, white house officials have been consistent in saying well beyond -- to be clear well beyond, before this attack happened, that any sort of exit from afghanistan would have been chaotic, would have been painful. the process weve seen play out only proves they were right to draw down this wa...

Asked for two contingency plans. if the us were to remained past the august 31st deadline and then, a contingency plan if the military withdrew and how to get everyone out, including american allies that wanted to come. this is the type of attack that we has been warned about. the imminent threat of a suicide bomber using a vehicle or vest was measured as more likely than unlikely and we have seen that come to pass. americans have been told to stay away from the airport. we still have 1500 in th...

This is a concern we have been watching and we saw of course the tragic event happened today. >> reporter: what does todays attack say about the u.s.s ability to keep the terror threat checked once the u.s. pulls all military support out of afghanistan? it something he talked about in july when he reiterated what the point was. its peter youre right and i appreciate the cluster and commence a burden for people done know and understand the threats that are posed by having thousands of u.s. milita...

Of the voices for the administration, but the nation needs a commander in chief as kash just said he will put the mission first and put transparency on that mission first as well. everybody, thank you on "outnumbered." and we will handed over to "america reports" as we await some word from the white house. >> john: the ongoing chaos in kabul. at least, three u.s. marines are hurt. >> sandra: im sandra smith in new york. an attack outside of the gates of hamid karzai international airport. the pe...

Withdrawal and that he didnt want to send anymore servicemen and women to die in this war, but thats exactly what has happened now. the last american killed in combat in afghanistan was february 8th, 2020. so, as much as this perhaps predictable, that we would see an attack like this, as joey jones was describing, this certainly isnt what president biden set out to do. no one for that matter would ever want to see that happen. i just wonder and it has been five hours since we have learned of the...
