The deep state's goal is to weaken the US, so they are accomplishing their mission. This is a repeat of 2011 when Obambi pulled out of Iraq in and ISIS came right in and took over, and snagged tons of military hardware.

“Up yours, Mister Finer,” I explain. His whole video was packed with lies, excuses and cowardice if not treason. Gen. Sherman advised America that war is hell and it cannot be refined. Our leaders should have listened because our delicately fought and lost wars are now coming to our shores en masse. But, then again, I am in the shallows of believing that those same leaders are our enemies and that belief is getting deeper every day. So many of them are graduates of Harvard or Yale Law and using the fear of incarceration or personal ruin to hogtie the rest of us. My message to libs is “you think it’s bad now? You ain’t seen nuthin’ - yet.”

The tie looks more magenta than bright pink. The loafers weren't exactly lavender; more of a mauve. Get a color palette, guys.

This reminds me over twenty years ago before 9-11-01 when some network had a 'terrorist expert' that looked so young he might have been playing Little League baseball the week before. What next Mr. Finer send in grief counselors why don't the Biden people just own up to this fiasco and stop lying to our faces. What's up with the 'Apache' beard you can't grow one but you have a patch here and a patch there. I wouldn't let that soy boy sell be a pair of shoes much less listen to a scripted lie to cover for a senile old coot like Joe Biden.

Anyone else remembering all the criticism Bush II received because somebody had hung up a 'Mission Accomplished' banner? Its amazing how stuff like this turns around to bite some people. Just have to be patient, wait, and it inevitably happens. Biden is indeed having his 'Mission Accomplished' moment. Only difference is the media will cover for him.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson said Friday he sees clear signs that the mainstream media has obviously begun to turn on President Joe Biden as well as some top officials in his administration.“We’ve learned a lot in the past five days. Maybe the important thing we’ve learned is that Joe Biden is not capable of running the country. Joe Biden is senile. Saying that out loud is not an attack on Biden,” Carlson began as he kicked off his opening monologue.He went on to say that everyone in Biden’s inner circle has long been aware that he is “senile” but they allowed him to run for president anyway and that

Former President Trump will say, 'it's time for real leadership in the White House,' at a rally in Alabama this evening, according to a top ally who said it was a clearest signal yet that he is planning to run for the presidency in 2024. Trump has spent the past week attacking President Biden's handling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.And when he appears in front of thousands of fans in Cullman County he is expected to develop those attacks to ask whether Americans can be safe anywhere in the world with Biden in the White House, said the ally who has seen drafts of the speech.

The U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan announced on Saturday that U.S. citizens should not travel to the airport in Kabul due to security threats outside of the gates. “Because of potential security threats outside the gates at the Kabul airport, we are advising U.S. citizens to avoid traveling to the airport and to avoid airport gates at this time unless you receive individual instructions from a U.S. government representative to do so,” the Embassy said in a security alert. The Embassy also urged U.S. citizens to be aware of their surroundings, especially in large surroundings. (Tweet)

Joe Biden is planning on increasing taxes levied on small businesses - despite explicitly promising on the campaign trail not to do so.The White House proposal - backed by the president himself - will begin winding its way through Congress next week.Last week the Senate passed a $3.5 trillion budget resolution that would pave the way for legislation based on Biden's plans, and the Democrat-majority House is expected to vote on the budget resolution next week, meaning it will almost certainly pass.

President Joe Biden still won’t apologize for the complete chaos he’s triggered in Afghanistan as tens of thousands of American and allied lives remain at risk. Despite his claims to the contrary, his pullout has been an utter disaster, and America’s standing has suffered.His televised speech Friday was once again an exercise in delusion, misdirection — and flat-out lying.In his remarks, for instance, the president declared: “I have seen no question of our credibility from our allies around the world.” He then looked back at his court jesters, a masked Secretary of State Antony Blinken and clueless Vice President Kamala Harris, as if he really believed what he was saying.

I listened to part of President Biden's recent speech congratulating himself upon Senate passage of the $1.9-trillion infrastructure bill — a "bipartisan" plan that seventeen Republicans were foolish enough to support. The "Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act," as it's called, is a mammoth boondoggle laden with union favoritism and minority set-asides — the most corrupt piece of legislation yet, though overshadowed by the proposed $5-trillion American Families Act.Once again, what stood out was that creepy, sotto voce delivery, leaning into the camera with the look of one who's got what he wants but wants more. Biden's delivery was not only strange; it was sinister.

Al Qaeda remains present in Afghanistan, said Department of Defense spokesman John Kirby during a briefing, and yes, he was aware of reports of Americans being beaten by the Taliban as they tried to reach safety.The contradiction will raise further doubt about whether Biden is in control of the White House messaging operation, let alone the chaotic effort to bring Americans home.He cancelled plans to return home to Wilmington

Jim Geraghty’s written two posts today making the case that something is up. I’m not sold on his first post. His second is more persuasive. The first post argues that Biden’s chat with George Stephanopoulos was filled with enough contradictions and awkward stammering that, paired with his low visibility lately, we might reasonably conclude that his health has become an issue. Whether you agree comes down to a gut check on how you felt about the interview. I didn’t see it as out of the ordinary for Biden. His answers were emphatically not good but he didn’t seem checked out to me. If anything, he was combative

Incredibly cynical and depressing. And quite possibly correct. “The public opinion is pretty damn clear that Americans wanted out of the ongoing war and don’t want to get back in. It’s true today and it’s going to be true in six months,” said one Biden ally. “It isn’t about not caring or being empathetic about what’s going on over there, but worrying about what’s happening in America.”… White House officials believe Americans’ horror over graphic images of the chaos in Kabul and pleas from Afghans who fear they will be killed

During the presidential campaign, the Biden administration introduced a new word into the lexicon: a “lid.” His campaign has called a lid countless times without explanation, meaning it was cutting off all media appearances for that day. Joe Biden went on vacation to Camp David just before Afghanistan fell to the Taliban and gave no public remarks on the matter until more than 24 hours after the fall of Kabul. That was a speech Biden delivered from the White House Monday, after which he took no questions from the media. He went silent again, then delivered another speech on Wednesday, this time on COVID. He took no media questions

In the wake of the Afghanistan debacle, demands have arisen in Congress for President Biden to resign or to be removed via the 25th Amendment. Elements of the formerly pro-Biden media have joined in the condemnation. Many silent Democrat office holders likely want Biden out, as they fear the systemic incompetence of his administration will bring them down come 2022. But Joe can not resign or be fired. The Democrat high command will not let either happen (snip) As soon as Kamala Harris takes the presidential oath, the vice-presidency is left vacant.
