The Biden administration left behind in Afghanistan hundreds of US-sponsored journalists and their families in the chaotic withdrawal from the Taliban-controlled country. Despite President Biden promising to get every journalist out, the reporters employed by the US Agency for Global Media were left stranded. Fox News confirmed that Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty (RFE/RL) journalists were unable to get aboard the last flights from Afghanistan on Monday. News of the journalists being left behind comes after national security adviser Jake Sullivan told CNN on Sunday that groups prioritized by the Biden administration had made it to evacuation planes.(Snip)The Texas lawmaker said 500 journalists

Comments:

The welfare refugees, with terrorists mixed in, were the top priority of the botched evacuation. Deal with it.

Journalists? There's a tear in my beer. Jake the Snake Sullivan lies like a fish drinks. They prioritized nothing at all except getting the corrupt POS President of Afghanistan out with his cars and cash. The rest was just stuff as many neckbeards into the planes as possible with no vetting whatsoever.

The media could care less about slaughtered Afghan Christians, helpless boys n girls, wounded soldiers, American workers but it so typical these guys are ON IT demanding immediate action for “journalists.”

If these were American journalists this would be the top story today and even the Rachel Madcow types would be blaming Xiden.

Hmmm. So now it's come out that Xiden has flipped the bird to the media class that has been propping him up for nearly 50 years with crap such as the "that's just Joe being Joe" nonsense and left stranded them in Afghanistan. If he won't protect the media shills that have protected him for so long, well, what good is he to them anyway?

Ya Joke Sully, the "Great Mind" behind the debacles in Iraq/ISIS, Libya, Syria, Myanmar, The Iran Deal(s)...THIS fustercluck...who also had Robbie Mook working as "Chief Press Liaison" on the ground in Kabul, actually at the airport, wearing Navy Garb(Lt. Navy Nat Guard...at age 41, though his wiki never mentions his Nat Guard membership, only his maaaany Dem campaign positions(primarily losing campaigns) and his status as 1st Openly Gay presidential campaign director. You would think that as Democrats most famous Media Liaison, communications director, Press Representative, HE would have had his laser focus on Media people needing to get out, particularly those with long standing US State Dept funding/positions. (What is up with these high ranking Democrat politicos getting Military commissions even though they are well into their 30's before even being cleared to join the Nat Guard, both Biden kids joined in their middle 30's, Mook at age 38...)

This leaves me with mixed feelings. Hate to see Americans or any freedom loving people trapped in that hell hole, but journalists are largely responsible for putting the Biden snake in the Whitehouse. He is now eating his own. I hope they wake up. This particular quote really frosts me - from one of the journos trapped over there - “You would have expected that the United States government, which helped create the space for journalism and civil society in Afghanistan over the last 20 years, would have tried to do more over the last several weeks to assist journalists who made a decision that it was best for them to leave the country,” Fly said. “But they consistently failed to do that.” Been a whole lot of failures that have led up to this mess. They were largely failures of integrity that worked in favor of Biden. Sorry - but I have mixed feelings about journos suffering right now.

These journalists were US Government employees. So Biden didn't just abandon US citizens and allies. He also abandoned Us government employees. Spin it however you want, these people were all abandoned by the US government and military leaders. They had our military retreat like scared lambs into the night. Now, our people are left like sacrificial lambs to be used as target practice or hostages to help raise some revenue for the Taliban. Biden said he would get all of our citizens and allies out of Afghanistan. I'm afraid they will be taken out of Afghanistan in pine boxes or black body bags.

I'd love to see that list of groups. #3 - I remember the journalist hanging out in the vicinity of the two snipers on top of a building in Iraq who became collateral damage when an Abrams HE round cleared the snipers from the rooftop. To the media, it became a war crime..

The White House released its plans on Wednesday for vaccinating 28 million children between ages five and 11 against COVID-19. In the next few weeks, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is expected to decide whether or not to authorize Pfizer-BioNTech's vaccine in younger kids in the next few weeks. If the jab is authorized, the Biden administration's plan to immunize kids will look very different than the campaign to inoculate adults. Child-size vials will be sent to providers across the country that can be kept in refrigerators along with smaller needles necessary for injecting young kids.(Snip)The White House is also preparing to mobilize

The man accused of raping a stranger on a metro Philadelphia train full of bystanders who cops say stood and filmed is a Congolese national present in the US illegally, according to a new report. Fiston Ngoy, 35, was arrested and charged in the horrifying attack on Wednesday on board a Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) train near the suburb of Upper Darby. Ngoy entered the US on a student visa in 2012, but remained after the visa was terminated in 2015, and was protected from deportation by the immigration system despite multiple convictions. Court records show that Ngoy had multiple arrests and two misdemeanor convictions, one for controlled substances

Washington—A Navy report has concluded there were sweeping failures by commanders, crew members and others that fueled the July 2020 arson fire that destroyed the USS Bonhomme Richard, calling the massive five-day blaze in San Diego preventable and unacceptable. While one sailor has been charged with setting the fire, the more than 400-page report, obtained by The Associated Press, lists three dozen officers and sailors whose failings either directly led to the ship’s loss or contributed to it. The findings detailed widespread lapses in training, coordination, communication, fire preparedness, equipment maintenance and overall command and control.(Snip)It slammed commanders of the amphibious assault ship for poor oversight,

Planeloads of underage migrants are being flown secretly into suburban New York in an effort by President Biden’s administration to quietly resettle them across the region, The Post has learned. The charter flights originate in Texas, where the ongoing border crisis has overwhelmed local immigration officials, and have been underway since at least August, according to sources familiar with the matter. Last week, The Post saw two planes land at the Westchester County Airport, where most of the passengers who got off appeared to be children and teens, with a small portion appearing to be men in their 20s.

There’s a cohort of hardcore populists within the House GOP whose loyalty to Trump is such that they’ll eagerly parrot any conspiracy theory he likes but most GOP reps who are asked about this tend to mumble something noncommittal about “election integrity” and “unanswered questions” before changing the subject.

Senate Democrats are set Tuesday to announce a scaled-down version of the Biden administration's proposal to crack down on Americans it suspects are dodging taxes.The administration's original proposal was greeted with overwhelming opposition from fiscal conservative groups, the banking industry and other over concerns about financial privacy.The initial plan, conceived by the Treasury Department and Senate Democrats, would have allowed the Internal Revenue Service access to information on bank accounts that had at least $600 worth of annual deposits or withdrawals. The new proposal will still allow the IRS to access information on accounts that transfer or receive more than $10,000 annually.
