Yeah, funny how that happened.
Wonder if Biden takes any action at all or sacrifices them to whatever fate awaits them?
Not a peep of it on MSM, or any alt media.

Found this today at Reuters.

WASHINGTON, May 2 (Reuters) - Russian military personnel have entered an air base in Niger that is hosting U.S. troops, a senior U.S. defense official told Reuters, a move that follows a decision by Niger’s junta to expel U.S. forces.

The military officers ruling the West African nation have told the U.S. to withdraw its nearly 1,000 military personnel from the country, which until a coup last year had been a key partner for Washington’s fight against insurgents who have killed thousands of people and displaced millions more.

… Yeats corrected …

… things have fallen apart, the center has failed to hold.

I wonder if orders have been placed to replace the equipment that was left behind.

… a boondoggle here, a boondoggle there…

America … The World’s Greatest Third World Country … Boondoggle center of the World!

Will this be Iran 1979 all over again? Will the troops be ordered or lured into surrendering to the Russians and/or the Nigeriens? Or the U.N.?

Why, why, why, would any reasonable thinking young, U.S. adult (a diminishing breed, mind you), why would they even glance at a military recruiter??

From Morrisville: ā€œTo get their education paid for…the ā€œpoorā€ don’t have as many options!ā€

This is a VERY big part of why people enlist and a ā€˜promise’ that is not often kept in the way the enlisted thought it would be.
