Less than one week after the United States completed its full troop withdrawal from Afghanistan, Sen. Lindsey Graham said the US will “have to” re-enter the war-torn country in an interview with BBC that aired worldwide on Monday. “Whether you like Trump or not, whether you believe it’s Trump’s fault or Biden’s fault, here’s where we’re at as the world: The Taliban are not reformed, they’re not new,” said Graham (R-SC). “They have a view of the world out of sync with modern times. They’re going to impose a lifestyle on the Afghan people that I think is going to make us all sick to our stomach.

Will someone invade the USA and free us from the imposed lifestyle that makes many of us sick to our stomach?

I'm not a Graham fan, but he's probably right. Biden's withdrawal is disastrous. Trump had conditions which would have needed to have been met by the Taliban in order to withdraw, and there's no way he would have left us this vulnerable. Terrorists are licking their chops, and we'll be probably have to return to protect our people. What a calamity.

I suppose that since there are going to be many civilian deaths anyway including Americans and probably a lot of torture before they die, perhaps an "invasion" might take place with a few well placed nukes in Kabul, Herat,, Kandahar and Jalalabad. At least people would die quickly.

We went to Afghanistan to begin with because Russia was invading. I probably don't know enough about it because I'm not as educated on some things as others here, but it seems to me Afghanistan is sliding funds and ammunition over to Iran. They want us dead. All of Us. Afghanistan needs to be stopped because Iran has been working on nuclear weapons for decades. If we re-invade Afghanistan, there will be more dead American soldiers and I would not want that. But there has to be a solution because we have too much to lose if Afghanistan and Iran join together to destroy us. And that's what they want to do. Actually, if they just sit around and have a cup of coffee, Biden is destroying us in ways they could never imagine.

The war profiteer's are drooling. Lindsey probably was in bed with all kinds of lobbyists after being a lawmaker DC for 26 years. That little gravy train dried up for the most part under Trump. I would not want my kid sent back over there by the likes of our demented husk in chief. #10...my first thought after seeing the headlines was "Don't miss Tucker tonight!" I hope he reams him a new one. I also hope he plays that clip of Graham from Hannity where he was in tears begging for voted to keep him in the senate. He was so "devoted" to Trumps ideology....right.

Biden will never reinvade Afghanistan, as such a move would in effect admit to the world that he is a moron, who did not know what he was doing when he ordered an immediate total retreat of US Forces and in effect a surrender to the Taliban, an Islamist terrorist organization, that is responsible for killed and wounded thousands of US military members in Afghanistan.

This won’t happen during a Dem administration. The optics would be terrible as more dead US Servicemen start being shipped back home after a re-invasion. It would highlight the sheer incompetence of our current “leaders”. No, they are hoping to ride out the debacle with the media’s help and corruption.

Former President Trump delivered a double barreled blast on Wednesday, condemning the 'desecration' of a monument to Robert E. Lee and claiming the Confederate general would have led troops to victory in Afghanistan. He delivered his verdict after America's largest Confederate statue—the 12-ton bronze monument Lee in Richmond, Virginia—was removed from its pedestal. 'Black Lives Matter' supporters chanted and sang 'Na Na Hey Hey' as it was winched away. 'Our culture is being destroyed and our history and heritage, both good and bad, are being extinguished by the radical left, and we can’t let that happen,' said Trump in an emailed statement.

Denmark has proposed making migrants work 37 hours a week to earn welfare benefits because 'there are too many, especially with non-Western backgrounds, who do not have a job'. The proposal by the minority Social Democratic government, a traditionally left wing administration that has adopted right wing anti-immigration policies, would require migrants who have been on benefits for at least three years to find work. It said the programme was necessary because many women of foreign descent do not work, especially those with roots in the Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Turkey.(Snip)The programme would start with those who are able to speak some Danish

President Biden is firing all military academy board members who were appointed by former President Donald Trump—regardless of their qualifications—in a purge that’s drawing stiff pushback because their terms were supposed to last three years. Six presidential appointees on each academy board—18 people in total—were told to resign by 6 p.m. Wednesday or be fired. “I think this complete purge shows that the administration is hellbent on the woke mob controlling or having input into military education. Otherwise, why do it?” said one of the board members, who pointed out that Trump didn’t perform a similar purge.(Snip)‘Unprecedented’ is a word you could use here,”

People who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 seem to be getting infected with alarming frequency, including Georgia Bulldog football players and people on social media, and that is driving talk of booster shots before waning protection against the coronavirus grows into a crisis that fills hospitals.

Perhaps, at long last, the deadly reign of Anthony Fauci will come to an end. That’s because The Intercept, a hard-left publication, has revealed 900 pages of government documents definitively proving that Fauci used his position to fund gain-of-function research into bat viruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (“WIV”)—and then lied to Congress about it. Since February 2020, the wizened Fauci has been the face of the government’s response to the pandemic. In the ensuing 20 months, Fauci was frequently wrong, incredibly arrogant, and deeply dishonest. Because he was the anti-Trump, though, we were stuck with him.
