The Effort To Save The Allies We Left Behind
After the fall of Kabul last year, many of the Afghans who risked their lives helping the U.S. military were left behind during the evacuation. Abdul Wasi Safi was one of them. Fearing he would be killed by the Taliban, he fled and embarked on a dangerous journey across multiple continents. He eventually reached the U.S.-Mexico border, where he hoped to find safety and a new life. Instead, he was arrested for illegal entry and now could be deported back to Taliban-controlled Afghanistan. Special guest host Dana Perino joins the Rundown and speaks with the CEO of The Independence Fund, Sarah Verardo, about her group’s effort to help Abdul Wasi Safi, why going back to Kabul would mean certain death, and how she and other veterans services organizations are advocating for the Biden administration to better help our Afghan allies.
