chris miller was on the phone during the riots at the capitol with nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, mitch mcconnell and he listed all of those people and others that reached out to him, and not once did you hear from the president of the united states. >> no. >> that is just an extraordinary statement. >> we have less than a minute left. i want to put you on the spot quickly does he run again. there's two of you so you can give me yes and no and one of you will be right. >> i think that he is making all of the noise of somebody that wants to run again. we know how much he enjoys the spotlight. we are not in the prognostication business, but right at this moment he sure sounds like a guy that is running. >> i agree if he had to make the decision tomorrow the answer would be yes but we know that a year or two in politics is a long time. who knows how his health is going to be when he arrives. and we want to know what you think, john. >> i've been thinking know but i am more convinced than that given the events of the last several weeks. we will see. anyway, we are out of time. usually i say

what is notable, we had chris miller, the former defense secretary on "fox and friends" earlier today. here's what he had to say about rescuing mark. >> got to be a presidential priority. he says do it, it gets done. let's not talk about mark as a hostage. he's a prisoner of war. we don't leave prisoners of war behind. we've had to do that in the past. let's bring everybody home. let's not end this war this way. >> what is notable, martha, chris miller was the defense secretary for two months at the end of the trump administration when mark was still being held as a hostage. he said this morning that it would be easy for the president and for others to rescue this american hostage. he called upon president biden to do so. however, when he was defense secretary from november to january of 2021, he did not order such a raid. he did not rescue him. he was taken hostage in january of 2020. he's an illinois-born contractor a navy veteran. he had been living in kabul a decade when he was abducted. he's now assumed to be with the haqqani network. so it does seem a bit interesting that chris

chris miller, former acting secretary of defense in the trump administration.o have you. it looks like we might finish with 114,000 to 115,000 eventually, evacuated out of, out of afghanistan but still thousands who as things stand now will never be. what do you think of that? >> neil, i can fundamentally disagree with the conjecture, that, i want to talk to the people in afghanistan right now that are listening to this show or watching this show before the taliban cut down the television feeds which will happen soon. that is part of their playbook. don't give up hope. there are tons of americans, international community members dedicated to getting you out. we haven't given up and although the digital dunkirk, aerial evacuation portion is over, we'll keep working on this. neil, i represent special operations association of america, soaa.org. we have people all over the world right now helping out. i got to give, got to tell you, you had the reporter out of qatar. they have done an unbelievable job. do you realize we had an agreement they were supposed to suppo

chris miller with us, former acting secretary of defense. mr.ats and even with the strike appear very, very real and the drawdown in troops, so, to follow on the pace that we've had, it's going to be difficult. where does that put up, do you think, on tuesday, the deadline? >> yeah, you nailed it, neil. it's going to be really difficult. so kind of where we are right now is we've got to think about the future. let's do everything we can to get as many people out as we can, but the bubble is collapsing in on hamid karzai international airport, a lot of people are still trying to get out and messages that are motivating. the guy, one of the commenters brought up all the great work that veterans are doing. you're seeing that, so wow, these are tough days. could i just say something? you know, i've tried to be positive. my heroes were green berets and veterans from vietnam and then the journalists that were there, you know, remember sheehan, dan rather and hal, they were my heroes and that seemed like 5:00 folly stuff from vietnam. you've got to kee

laurel miller there from the international... - colonel chris kolenda, author of zero—sum victory: whatban in 2007. i have got a personal reaction and a policy reaction. my personal reaction is it is very upsetting, it is very disappointing. i've got afghan friends who i am messaging back and forth who are very concerned about their safety, their personal safety. they tell me about the unfolding humanitarian crisis, the uncertainty about the future, and all of that is very upsetting. it is also very upsetting to see 20 years of work with the afghan government come crashing down like this. from a policy standpoint, i think it is important right now to focus on cause and not blame, and i think there are three causes for what we're seeing right now. the first cause is that the afghan soldiers and people no longer believed, lost faith, in their leadership and voted with their feet to accept the taliban. second is the taliban used the last 18 months very wisely in negotiating all of these surrenders, whereas the afghan government squandered the past 17 to 18 months. and third, the united sta
