Afghanistan will be seen as Joe Biden’s
defeat. And it may come back
to haunt him

Original Article

What will it take for Joe Biden to admit he is disastrously wrong about Afghanistan? The US leader struck a defiant pose last week. Sounding like a slightly desperate Olympics coach, he told Afghans it was their country. If they want it, they have to fight for it. In American politics-speak, this is called tough love. Without the love. Biden has more hands-on foreign policy experience than any president since George HW Bush. That doesn’t mean he knows what he’s doing. Opinion polls suggest his abrupt Afghan withdrawal has majority public support. That doesn’t mean Americans will remain indifferent as the carnage and misery mount.

It will be held against Biden and the Dims ONLY if a resurgent Taliban mounts some attack reminiscent of 9/11 on US soil. America is tired of sacrificing its sons and daughters on the other side of the world for uncertain benefit to the USA. If the Afganis won't die to save themselves why should we?

We had to get out of there, though not so suiddenly and quickly as we are doing. The Afghan army might have been able to fight and win if they continued with American jets bombing taliban targets. The additional problem is that, as in other conflicts, we are propping up many corrupt leaders who have stolen billions in US aid. The military doesn't trust them and they cannot lead or inspire the troops. But then again, we have many of the same sort of corrupt leaders in our own government.

I only slightly blame biden for this. Even if he was mentally capable of grasping the true situation, I wouldn't blame him much . The 0bama Perfumed Princes of the Pentagon, and the globalist leftist career hacks at the Department of State are to blame. Heck, 'W.' Bush and his 'nation building' efforts are more to blame than dementia biden is. The Taliban, in a couple of weeks has gained control of vastly more territory and is a thousand times better armed than they were when we began the 20 year war against them. Joe may have signed an order telling Milley and the other generals to just abandon all of the weapons, supplies and facilities, but he only signed what someone told him to sign. The bought-and-paid-for generals and their Military industrial Complex paymassters are the ones that wanted it that way.

“ Biden has more hands-on foreign policy experience than any president since George HW Bush.” Define “experience.” If Mr. Tisdall means Freak Joe shook hands with foreign leaders and could name The Queen, yes, I suppose he has experience. If he means that Freak Joe considered foreign policy, made decisions, and implemented policy….then not so much.

The only reason we have a military in the first place is to fight the good fight on behalf of Critical Race Theory. The military does not exist to fight wars. Wars are for other People. The true enemy is White Power, which must be eliminated. By white people. Please do not ask me how white people can eliminate White Power. It is a Mystery. We only fight Enemies of the Deep State.

Beg to differ, #1. The September 11 attack should have been laid at the feet of Clinton who was given the opportunity to take out bin Laden on multiple occasions. On one of those he was on the golf course and told the SS agent who brought him the news of an opportunity to back off and leave him alone. And then there was his appointee Jamie Gorelick who blocked communications between the CIA and the FBI who, working together, might have prevented the attack. But if you look at the news coverage and the history books, the blame is placed on Bush 43 who had only been in office for 8 months. They will do the opposite if there is another attack here - it will be blamed on President Trump who, much to the left’s chagrin, did take out top terrorist leaders. Demonrats NEVER have to take responsibility for their actions.

joe biden was the disposable candidate for the demcommies against an overwhelmingly popular and powerful President Donald J. Trump - the demcommies knew there was no candidate who could defeat our president but they knew biden was the perfect dunce to do the job as directed by barak obama - biden is floating in an ocean of vagaries and has attained the position sought by most senators and high level federal and state politicians - he has no idea, nor does he care, of the consequences of his time in office - he will be summarily drummed out of office but will not be sent to prison, where he belongs because of his age - there is no justice and he will less than an asterisk on the pages of United States history - the withdrawal of forces from Afghanistan is an abjectly, illiterate decision but that was the obama plan all along - so the real criminal in all of this is obama and justice has to be served on him to make an impact on the people of our country to rebuild their belief in our system, once again MAGA, A 2022 & 2024 and beyond

Haunt Joe Biden you must be joking? The brain dead joker couldn't find Afghanistan on a school house globe. This was like training the south Vietnamese army to fight while the U.S. withdrew. The Vietnamese army was run over by the North's Regular Army communist and Viet Cong like a freight train on a hobo. I understand Bush wanted to hunt Bin Laden in the mountains but should have only used air attacks with missiles no soldiers on the ground. Too late the Russians are getting the last laugh on this disaster. We can't run around the globe acting like policemen. If ME neighbors have problems let them engage or not it's not our problem to spend money and valuable patriotic young people for a disaster like this. Let the brave politicians like the ones hiding under tables on 1-6 go fight or put them in front to lead the charge. The last Presidents we had that did that were George Washington and Ulysses Grant. Forget Biden leave him to sniff young girl's hair that's all that pervert is good at. Trust me this won't harm any democrats in the future this is just gnashing of teeth by the right that will amount to nothing.

Actually the Biden regime needs to start figuring out how to handle the fact that the Taliban will be holding US citizens as hostages after Kabul falls, just as the Iranian regime did when Iran fell. Jimmy Carter didn't have a clue how to solve that problem and at the time I thought Jimmy was the worst president evah. However Obama and Biden have proven the Jimmy actually was nowhere near as bad as things can get.

And yet, as always, Biden (hiding at Camp David) is trying to blame this debacle on the Trump Administration!!!!!! ALMOST bought the Sunday NY Times this a.m. but noted that the Afghanistan story, though on page 1, was one column down the page and easy to miss......and the Sunday Times is now $6.00. A long day in H--- before I give that paper my $.......they STILL are covering for the man, who, as always, is hiding in a"basement" and pretty much let off the hook. Heard yesterday that ALL his generals and advisors advised against but he overruled on the quick pullout during fighting season.

I think opening the border to every Covid carrying illegal. Spending trillions of dollars we don't have which creates inflation. Ending oil drilling and the pipeline forcing gas prices to soar then asking OPEC to increase oil production after we were energy independent, will be enough to haunt Biteme and the demosluts for years. Afghanistan is just icing on the cake.

The Coward in Chief has already tried to accuse President Trump....That dog ain't going to hunt now or ever. Biden owns this debacle lock, stock and barrel. Joe Biden and I were born the same year. We are children of the The Greatest Generation, who instilled values in us. I don't know about him, but I grew up going to a great public school system where we said the pledge of allegiance and the Lord's Prayer everyday. We were taught about our founding fathers (that's right, fathers) and how they fought for our independence to become a free republic called the United States of America. It was once said if you went to school in the Fifties, it was now the equivalent of a college degree. The sense of pride in me has not diminished one iota, but has only grown over the years. Even with Vietnam, my generation's war and what a disgrace it was to see how they treated our boys when they came home and what happened to Saigon in the aftermath. I remember back in the 60's a book called the Ugly American. Thank you 1st Amendment. We got through the horrific 60's and still my pride to be an American never wavered even to this day. Although, today, I'm disgusted with our poorly administered and corrupt government. Now we have an addled person who stole the 2020 election and who has comprised our country to the CCP. and the big tech oligarch's. What will his next aspirin factory be to change the subject from the border crisis. Joe Biden and his incompetent administration should all be given pink slips and thrown out of the people's house.

The defeat belongs not on Biden's narrow shoulders alone, but to the entire dem/socialist party which propelled, (-possibly through voter fraud), the incompetent Biden/Harris ticket into office! While the dem party is already distancing itself from the Afghanistan tragedy/debacle, the party leaders cannot deny they set the increasing failures of national policies in motion and so have supported every resulting disaster Biden signed into. It seems that Biden is just the front man of the dem party which is responsible for the increasing policy failures occurring now. Pelosi & Schumer may try to blame Biden/Harris in order to shield their party, but the entire dem politico gang bears responsibility for failure after failure.

California’s fast food industry shed more than 6,000 jobs after Democratic lawmakers passed a bill mandating a $20 minimum wage for most fast food and counter service restaurants in the state, according to a new analysis of labor data. U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data show that between September 2023, when California governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 1228, and June 2024, Golden State fast food employment dropped from 570,909 jobs to 564,743. That’s a loss of 6,166 jobs, or 1.1 percent, according to an analysis by the nonprofit Employment Policies Institute.

My ears always perk up when I hear that a lifelong Democrat has thrown his or her support behind President-elect Donald Trump. One of the biggest surprises of the 2024 election cycle was the sheer number of people who did just that. Two key factors drove this shift. First, many working-class voters finally grasped that the Democratic Party, which they had blindly supported for decades, had abandoned them. The second factor concerned Democrats at the opposite end of the economic spectrum — a group that included tech billionaires, hedge fund managers, and the ultrawealthy, many with direct access to the Biden White House.

Supreme Court justice Samuel Alito tore into solicitor general Elizabeth Prelogar for arguing Wednesday that transgender procedures often result in better outcomes, a claim that fails to take into consideration a growing collection of evidence to the contrary. The justices heard oral arguments Wednesday in United States v.

Alito quoted Prelogar’s petition to the Court claiming “overwhelming evidence” supports the notion that puberty blockers and hormone treatments improve the well-being of unwell adolescents confused about their gender.

Aides of President Joe Biden are debating whether the outgoing Democratic president should issue preemptive pardons for figures President-elect Donald Trump has named as his political enemies. Politico reported Wednesday that among those being discussed for blanket pardons are former GOP Rep. Liz Cheney, Sen.-elect Adam Schiff and Dr. Anthony Fauci. Biden - who has been busy dealing with the fallout from his decision to pardon his son Hunter over gun and tax crimes - hasn't been brought into the discussions yet, the outlet said. White House officials fear that doling out pardons to people who haven't been charged with a crime could suggest impropriety.

Will our country protect children from these barbaric and irreversible procedures or not? As I previously reported, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson humiliated herself when she bizarrely tried to equate banning transgender procedures for minors with prohibiting interracial marriage. She began with a convoluted statement:

Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) isn’t sold on Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense. The Iowa Republican had her meeting with President-elect Donald J. Trump’s nominee, appreciated his service—Hegseth is a decorated combat veteran—and said they had a frank discussion about the confirmation process. Mr. Hegseth is the target of a Brett Kavanaugh-like smear campaign, where allegations of sexual misconduct and heavy drinking are bubbling up on the pages of the fake news press. Yet, Ernst doesn’t seem keen on voting for his nomination. Instead, there are rumors that she’s trying to derail him to get the job for herself. She also supports the transgender nonsense to continue in the military,

Democrat Adam Gray has won California's 13th Congressional District race, defeating incumbent Republican Rep. John Duarte, according to The Associated Press. California's 13th Congressional District was the last seat to be called, with the district being one of the most competitive races in the Golden State. Republicans maintained the majority with 220, with Democrats trailing at 216. Gray, a former state legislator who represented California's 21st Assembly District from 2012 to 2022, is considered a centrist Democrat who focused on key concerns for farmers in the Central Valley like water shortages.

As the Biden regime prepares to exit, it has orchestrated a move as a cunning attempt to undermine the incoming Trump administration’s agenda to streamline government operations. In a last-minute deal, the Biden regime has locked in telework protections for 42,000 Social Security Administration (SSA) employees until 2029. The agreement, reached with the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), ensures remote work privileges for these federal workers for the next five years, despite the Trump administration’s explicit plans to slash such arrangements, according to Bloomberg.

“I hope Americans will understand why a father and a President would come to this decision,” President Biden wrote in the last line of his statement explaining his unconditional pardon of his son, Hunter Biden. In doing so, he actually went full circle: The very first line of his statement emphasized their father-son relationship as well: “Today I signed a pardon for my son Hunter.” So it was Biden’s open and close. His PR team deliberately positioned it this way, of course. They had to: Hunter Biden isn’t a sympathetic character.

Transgender activists broadcast their intrusive takeover of at least one women’s bathroom on Capitol Hill on December 5. The transgender takeover marked an escalation by the mostly male movement in their campaign to demand access to spaces that are used by women to guard their sexual privacy and career opportunities in a diverse society. (X Video) The intrusions were done by two groups. One took over a bathroom in the Capitol Hill Visitor Center, and the other group occupied a bathroom in a hallway of a building used for the representatives’ offices. The second group included Chelsea Manning, a former soldier who claimed transgender status after being convicted in 2013

The Biden-Harris administration has granted millions of dollars in funding for a virtual treatment that aims to help cure eating disorders by “affirming” LGBTQIA+ patients’ sexual orientation and gender claims. The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded Auburn University Assistant Professor of Psychological Sciences Tiffany Brown and San Diego State University Professor of Psychology Aaron Blashill up to $5 million in grants to “develop and provide” the Promoting Resilience to Improve Disordered Eating (PRIDE) treatment — a virtual “identity-affirming eating disorder treatment for LGBTQIA+ patients,” the Auburn University College of Liberal Arts website states.

Mitt Romney, who will also be remembered by his weird Twitter pseudonym, Pierre Delecto, gave a farewell address on the Senate Floor Wednesday before leaving Washington and the government, hopefully for good. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Romney announced last year that he wouldn’t seek reelection following two failed Presidential campaigns and one term in the Senate. This is the best thing Romney, 77, has done in his 30-year political career since his first failed run for Senate in 1994. In his address, the career politician trashed those “who would tear at our unity” and “replace love with hate,” likely aimed at President Trump.
