todd: the cdc director said there would be no nationwide mandate, no federal mandate. now republican governors fighting to fight back, calling the mandates unconstitutional. >> some kind of action for south dakota to protect my people and defend their freedoms. todd: speaking out governor greg abbott, brian come, doug doocy and more. >> not just republican governors lashing out. mark meadows, the current president takes it easier on terrorists than unvaccinated americans. >> president biden today more hostile towards the unvaccinated in his speech than he has been towards the caliban in afghanistan. when we see what he's doing, going to mandate, why not spend

billions of dollars in additional therapies to treat those who come down with covid. they've done absolutely nothing, 0 points to put on the board in terms of keeping american safer. some in the medical community signing off on the president arguing his remarks were out of touch. >> the president also said he wants primary care doctors to talk to the patients whether they get a vaccine or not. we've been doing that since december every single one of us believes in vaccines so that was part of the condescending tone here. >> president biden's vaccine mandates getting pushback from business leaders. todd: cheryl casone with who is impacted. >> two prominent business groups did not endorse president biden's plan that companies require companies get the covid vaccine or get weekly testing. in a statement the national

association of manufacturers and, quote, we look forward to working with the administration to ensure any vaccine requirements structured on away that negative impacts the operations of manufacturers that have been leading through the pandemic to keep americans safe as walmart, amazon and kroger play a role in biden's plan with covid 19 tests to the public and cost 30% discount. these business groups say they are against people getting the vaccine, but when so many people rely on the amazons of the world to get toilet paper. we live differently now. jillian: a lot of people curious how postal workers are exempt from this. >> reporter: group not under the vaccine mandate, illegal immigrants the cross the southern border, 30% held in

federal detention centers have refused to be vaccinated. 18% of migrant families have tested positive for covid. there was a bit of confusion about the u.s. postal service, the washington post, 650,000 workers would be exempt from the president's mandate, those workers are part of the federal vaccine mandate and part of the federal guidance, that reporter had to correct himself. jillian: as the white house, us citizens from afghanistan are relying on allies to carry out the mission. and psaki is praising the taliban. >> explain a little more why the white house's they which is calling the taliban business like and professional? >> the taliban was cooperative in facilitating departure of these american citizens. jillian: joining me to react

retired brigadier general, thanks for being here and thank you for your service. let's start with what the white house is saying that the taliban was professional and businesslike in its cooperation getting americans and others out. what is your reaction? >> first of all thank you for having me on and all you are doing to bring this critical critical topic to light. it is an unmitigated disaster from the beginning and remains an unmitigated disaster and the taliban's business have never been up close and personal to the taliban, al qaeda, isis, and the horrors that they do and perform on people and haven't faced the business end of their weapon so they are far from businesslike. giving them any credit, any type

of credibility is just unbelievable and absolutely irresponsible. jillian: you have been up close with them. you were in afghanistan after 9/11, you let one of the first groups to take control of the southern afghan region from the taliban, tell me about dealing with them up close and personal, what are people not understanding or seeing? >> my first rotation in afghanistan in november of 2001 when we started fighting the taliban and al qaeda, advising howard karzai about 20 other americans in southern afghanistan and came across the horrors, they would kill kids for flying kites and women for teaching their children, they would still women and hank men and do all kinds of things, we are not seeing it, that is how they roll and they go into

villages at night and go into people's houses and kill them so they are not to be trusted. they are violent extremist terrorist organizations. to think you could ever do anything with them is completely impossible. you can't trust them or take them at their word. that is white has been in a dedicated disaster not only at the policy level a diplomatic level but the military level as well. jillian: the military trying to -- get every american out of there. what are they up against? some perform these operations for years. >> i am heartbroken when i hear

their voices over facebook, messenger and get constant notes please help me, please help me. i write a letter, give them a letter with my name on it hoping it will get them some sort of assistance on the ground but since we are not there it will not get them much assistance because the taliban won't pay attention to it and will probably kill them for having it which makes me feel even worse. we have completely abandoned americans, our allies, afghan partners, inconsistent with character, integrity, the of office that they take and they should all be impeached and resign and removed from their positions, people that will get the job done need to be put in those positions. >> and firsthand experience, thank you for joining us. >> god bless you and thank you.

down, left is right and for people who truly understand what happened on september 11th, 2001, it feels like our leadership have turned the entire equation upside down and at the behest of our enemy we helped reinstall 20 years later and personal freedom is not something they are interested in which is an insult to a lot of americans at this point. todd: you mention the white house labeling the taliban as businesslike and professional. you are talking to people on the ground, is that what you are hearing? >> reporter: businesslike and professional, if you seen photos of the beating of journalists, how women won't be allowed to be in any leadership position, either at all, go to school totally at issue and suicide squads they are forming with desperate young islamist men

crying out to want to die as suicide bombers for the cause of the taliban, they will work with isis when they need to all as businesslike professionals, i can't imagine, i can't fathom a worldview that would lead me to say that alone type those words and get our white house is hostage to the taliban and which is the position they put themselves in because of such a terrible plan when it came to evacuating americans and our allies, our allies are dying right now, anyone who worked with americans are dying right now violently, quietly, without freedom of the press, without freedom of expression because the taliban are the opposite businesslike and professional, they are savages, just who we knew they were 20 years ago, they have been for hundreds of years, we are putting out statements like that.

yelling back at this voice, buddy, we are not going to leave you behind. this is the marines and the voice was shouted back i couldn't make it out i just knew i was just glad that, you know, we had a person that we could help out. jillian: that's incredible. william, what was that moment like for you when you were finally free of the rubble? can you also talk about the significance of a sunrise to you? >> jubilation appeared at the same time. i was in the navy, i went ahead united states marine corps a great moment at that moment and as far as suspect rise, you know, the only gift i can give back to people 20 years later sunrise to the dark, 9/11 museum carries and on amazon.com
