All right, news round up information over Lord hour eight hundred nine four one Sean you want to be a part of the program untold hundreds of Americans.

Uh, now.

That basically their lives are in the hands of radical terrorists.

You know, and the whims of these terrorists and what I think could possibly happen. I don't even want to express publicly.

This is a very smart audience. We all know what the possibilities are. The idea that we'd ever leave an American behind goes against every single solitary fiber in my being.

Joe Biden said what we'd leave nobody behind one of the saddest things in all of this to me.

Well, whenever there's a loss of life, it's sad, right? We value life. We'll pro life. We know life is a gift. We know I believe in natural law. Our rights are life comes from a God, a creator, a father.

And we're endowed by that creator. And as part of this, the idea that we didn't we saw the Taliban on the march as early as March.

And we saw them on the March and April. And we saw vast portions of the country province after province literally basically being not defended by the great Afghan army that Joe was bragging about in mid July.

And then we saw made June July even and we waited for the Taliban to take over Kabul. And we Joe Biden, bragging, we have control of the airport to Washington Post says there's a report out now that actually the Taliban offered us to have Kabul to get all the people out.

And he said, no, then they formed the perimeter. If you can't if you don't control the perimeter to the airport and you don't control the city around the airport, how are you supposed to get your people home? And now every diplomatic and every diplomat every military person is now left Afghanistan.

And we have Americans now caught behind enemy lines in the lead up to this. We had this terror attack that took place last week. And you know, we lost 13 of our bravest are I call the kids their kids to me. I mean, that's our national treasure.

I have kids. My kids are out of their teenage years now. One of them is Lance Corporal Jarrage Smith's he's 20 years old was one of 13 Marines killed that the car is I international airport last week.

And what was fascinating about his story is father's going to join in a minute. He had been part of a group of Marines that was sent back to Afghanistan for the specific reason to assist with the evacuation efforts.

His father Mark joins us now and also joining us is Darren Hoover is 31 year old son Marine Corps staff sergeant Darren Teller Hoover was the oldest US service member killed on the 26th of August.

This is just last week was serving his third tour of duty in Afghanistan at the time of his death. And by the way, his father said no parent should have to bury their their sons or daughters. It's not supposed to work that way. He was scheduled by the way to retire when he got home and Marius fiance.

Who's also devastated anyway, Mark Schmitz and Darren Hoover. Thank you both for being with us. Thank you. Thank you, sir. Mark, look, I rather than asked any political questions right now. Let me let's talk about your son. One thing you caught my attention is he was sent back for these for this very reason to assist for the evacuation.

This is something you said that he always wanted to do and I've never seen a young man train as hard as he did to be the best soldier he could be. Tell us about your son who lost his life.

He had decided firmly sophomore year so that he was going to enter the Marine Corps and began training doing this kid didn't go to the library. He didn't do research. He didn't like school. But he jumped the way a kid after my own heart.

He started googling what the workout regiment was from Marine Corps, what basic physical conditioning needs to be to get through boot camp alive and conquer the crucible, etc.

He just started training like crazy. He was a type that didn't have a driver's license right away when he was 16 so I would have to drive him up to the local Marine office and he started training with them before he was even a recruit just learning everything that they do. He just really wanted to excel.

He went to school and joined the Marines and graduated. It was an honor to be able to witness that in October of 19. He finally got his first deployment to Jordan and shortly thereafter he got the call up to go to Kabul.
