"This is why you don’t certify fraud."--George Papadopoulos
Our Actual President: "What Joe Biden has done with Afghanistan is legendary. It will go down as one of the greatest defeats in American history! It is time for Joe Biden to resign in disgrace for what he has allowed to happen to Afghanistan, along with the tremendous surge in COVID, the Border catastrophe, the destruction of energy independence, and our crippled economy. It shouldn’t be a big deal, because he wasn’t elected legitimately in the first place!
First Joe Biden surrendered to COVID and it has come roaring back. Then he surrendered to the Taliban, who has quickly overtaken Afghanistan and destroyed confidence in American power and influence. The outcome in Afghanistan, including the withdrawal, would have been totally different if the Trump Administration had been in charge. Who or what will Joe Biden surrender to next? Someone should ask him, if they can find him.
Can anyone even imagine taking out our Military before evacuating civilians and others who have been good to our Country and who should be allowed to seek refuge? In addition, these people left topflight and highly sophisticated equipment. Who can believe such incompetence? Under my Administration, all civilians and equipment would have been removed.
Afghanistan is the most embarrassing military outcome in the history of the United States. It didn’t have to be that way! The corrupt Presidential Election of 2020 got us here. Never would have happened if I were President!
It's not that we left Afghanistan. It's the grossly incompetent way we left! What took place yesterday in Afghanistan made our withdrawal from Vietnam look like child’s play. Perhaps in World history, there has never been a withdrawal operation that has been handled so disastrously. A President who has been illegitimately elected has brought great shame, in many ways, to our Country!"
Our Military Is A Woke Joke by Kurt Schlichter (townhall.com)
"Fire all the generals. Invite a few back, maybe a dozen. Clean out the Pentagon. Can all the “Diversity Consultants,” “Equal Opportunity Officers,” “Climate Change Mitigation Specialists,” and every other strap-hanging oxygen thief who doesn’t contribute to the only thing the military should be focusing on right now – putting Chi Coms in graves.
Yeah, there’s been a strategic failure of epic proportions by our civilian establishment. We need to fix that at the ballot box by tossing out every Democrat and every Liz Cheney-esque combat tourist who delights in sending our young people overseas to get ground up in idiotic wars designed to enrich their cronies. Twenty years of failure. Twenty years. How far and fast we fell. Twenty years of failure.
Look at us now. Look at the generals, in their stupid throwback uniforms from the Forties that are supposed to make the gender studies seminar we call the US Army think it’s the same force that broke Hitler. It’s not. A serious organization does not alternate its designation of America’s most serious threat between the weather, “racism,” and other Americans who dissent from the generals’ bosses’ political priorities.
The Navy is busy smashing ships into each other, or letting them burn, but it will tell you it’s the most effective, lethal fighting force ever. Baloney. It’s glided along on its WW2 legacy as well for going onto a century. It imagines that its glorious naval tradition is going to compensate for the fact that the Chinese are actually building combat-ready ships and learning how to use them. The Carthaginians were like that too – fat, smug, and eager to sacrifice their children to Moloch, just like our garbage elite. The Romans, who had no naval tradition, took one of their boats and copied it. Sound familiar? Then they built a navy. Also ring a bell? Then the Romans cleared the seas of Carthaginians and went on to rule the world for another 500+ years while Carthage’s field can still provide for all your sodium chloride needs.Brian Dean Wright: "Joe Biden has lost moral authority and destroyed all credibility. His words mean nothing. The Intel Community is out with their Afghanistan statement, claiming they saw it coming the whole time. Naw. Fire all of them. Anyone who chopped off on rosy assessments gets a boot up the ass.
Let Joe Biden sleep. Whichever leader steps up in the next few days — delivering a fire & brimstone call to action for a better America — that person will capture the hopes and votes of a battered nation. The Afghan Air Force didn’t take flight because — God help us — Joe Biden refused to let outside maintenance crews into Afghanistan, effectively grounding the fleet.
Virtually our entire ruling class supported or profited from the Afghan war. This is a watershed moment — the seeds of a peaceful revolution for new leadership in America — if we demand it. Last June, Joe Biden said you’d need fighter jets and nukes to defeat him. Not true, America. Not true at all."
Harris says she had key role in Biden's Afghanistan withdrawal decision - POLITICO
The Occupation Junta is walking a fine line. These are the sorts of events that awaken the unwoke, those who still think we have Constitutional Government. If the Regime goes too far too fast, it could topple their whole House of Marked Cards.
keeler: "It is also walking a fine line in another sense.
There is a widespread, and generally correct, assumption that most of these “failures” and “crises” are either intentionally created or, at the very least, manipulated in order to further specific policy objectives.
However, at some point the Obama crew will lose the ability to contain one of these crises. It happens. Humans fail. And the more complex, the more riskier, and the more numerous these crises become, the greater the risk that this will happen. If we think it is bad now, which it is, wait until there is absolutely no one able to influence outcomes.
We often talk about parallels between today and the rise of fascism in the 1920s and 1930s. Those parallels exist, and they are important ones which should not be overlooked. However, there are also parallels between the increasingly unstable and complex web of crises which led Europe to immolate itself over a relatively minor political assassination in 1914. That final crisis exploded largely because the string-pullers had constructed a cats-cradle far too intricate to remain responsive to their tugging."
more: "We need to keep focusing on this point. He is there to be hated, and then disposed of. The Obama Crew want to dump all the negative consequences of their policies onto Biden, with the expectation that when he is removed all that baggage will go with him.
Biden is not innocent, but he is also not relevant. By directing disgust and outrage at him, we are playing into the hands of those using him for that exact purpose. There is plenty of blame to go around, and plenty of shoulders to share it.
I interpret everything currently happening from starting point that Biden’s role is to a) cause as much damage as possible and b) be saddled with the political baggage of that damage which otherwise cannot be hidden or deflected in order to c) jettison that baggage when Biden is forced out.
This arrogant, yet stumbling and incoherent, refusal to accept responsibility while blaming the previous administration and the most recent victims of his policy is exactly what I would expect from someone in his position.
I would go so far as to say his handlers, advisors, and speechwriters intentionally created these optics with this specific objective in mind, turning Biden’s decaying and unstable temperament- a weakness – into a strength in pursuance of that objective.
We are entering a phase of nuclear-level politics. Anything anyone else-including the Lightbringer himself- would not risk doing will be attempted, because Biden is expendable. Handing over Afghanistan to the Taliban in this disgraceful and reckless manner is just the start."
Jerry: "I hate to admit this, but this was an absolutely Brilliant plan by Obama. Six months into his third term, the Muslim Brotherhood has an entire country and they are massively armed with US weapons and US military equipment."
Dear Media: You got what you wanted and what you worked for. Happy now? - American Thinker: "Our despicable mainstream media did everything in its vast and coercive power to see Joe Biden elected president. President Trump was a madman, they said, a Hitler, and a host of other ridiculous charges that were patently untrue. He was, and history will show, that he was the best president since Ronald Reagan. But the media hated him because he wasn’t one of their imagined exalted elite.So they lied, cheated, and stole an election in order to put the dementia-ridden Biden in the oval office. In seven months, Biden has pretty much destroyed America!".......

Stephen Miller: "Biden is a founding member of the DC global elites who presided over the Mideast nightmare, offshoring of our middle class, rise of China, decay of the inner city, deterioration of the American family and annihilation of national sovereignty. The corrupt leadership class must go. The Left put Biden at the helm of their party because they wanted a completely hollow, empty vessel through to advance their extremist agenda. Biden wanted what he always has: power. The global embarrassment in Afghanistan is the consequence of putting an empty vessel in charge.
Fundamental reform & leadership changes needed at Pentagon and throughout the U.S. intel community. But it won’t happen because Biden is a core member of the failed foreign policy establishment, and has been for decades. Those who got Afghanistan so wrong are the same ones who constantly leaked and lied about 45. To understand corporate media narrative, you must first understand that the failed foreign policy establishment was waging shadow war against 45 for placing his allegiance w/voters over them. Radical jihadists won’t even need to make it to the SW Border as Biden has terminated 45’s visa curbs, travel bans & refugee controls. Be warned: the State Dept will use Biden’s withdrawal fiasco as predicate for importing massive #’s from region w/rushed vetting & no ties to US.
Keep in mind, the biggest lesson from the 9/11 attacks that our establishment refuses to adopt: the need for immigration security. Pres Trump’s devotion to the security of our SW Border was matched in focus & intensity by his devotion to securing the US visa and refugee system. After 20 yrs of US fighting & democracy-building, the Taliban regained most of country in about 1 week while US personnel flee, abandon air base, surrender embassy, & remove flag. Biden has presided over the greatest, most avoidable foreign policy embarrassment in history.
Trump rejected DC’s delusional thinking about Afghan military/gov’t. 45 had extremely clear-eyed view of the situation, the players, and the raw power dynamics. Trump’s peace plan would have guaranteed the long-term security of all US interests—military, diplomatic & civilian. So why did Biden inexplicably jettison the peace plan? Partly because Biden so committed to beltway smear that 45 was wrong to negotiate w/Taliban. But a political settlement, negotiated from position of strength plos realism, was always the only exit path w/stability and dignity. So instead, Biden—lacking skill, imagination, tactical ability the moral courage to defy beltway foreign policy convention—has handed the United States one of the worst, most easily preventable, & prestige-eroding strategic humiliations any great power has ever experienced.
Russia & China remain as America flees Kabul. Even if you tried, you couldn’t fail more badly at your job than Joe Biden. It is becoming increasingly clear that Biden & his radical deputies will use their catastrophic debacle in Afghanistan as a pretext for doing to America what Angela Merkel did to Germany & Europe. The Biden team wants to grow this number far beyond this initial group and into the many hundreds of thousands. Humane refugee policy emphasizes relocation as close to home as possible, maximizing finite resources & enabling possible return when conditions allow. Those rejecting regional resettlement strategies in favor of mass US resettlement have a political, not humanitarian, objective."
The Scale of Humiliation :: SteynOnline:
"To modify Hillary Clinton, what difference at this point would it make if the US government simply laid off its entire "intelligence community"?
Indeed, what difference would it make if it closed down its military? Obviously, it would present a few mid-life challenges for its corrupt Pentagon bureaucracy, since that many generals on the market for defense lobbyist gigs and board directorships all at once would likely depress the going rate. But, other than that, a military that accounts for 40 per cent of the planet's military spending can't perform either of the functions for which one has an army: it can't defeat overseas enemies, and it's not permitted to defend the country, as we see on the Rio Grande.
So what's the point?
Oh, oh, but, if a nation doesn't have an army to defend it, a quarter-of-a-million foreign invaders could just walk into the country with impunity every month!
The scale of America's global humiliation is so total that I see my friends at Fox News cannot even bear to cover it. As I write, every other world network - the BBC, Deutsche Welle, France 24, not to mention the Chinese - is broadcasting the collapse of the American regime in real time; on Fox, meanwhile, they're talking about the spending bill and the third Covid shot and the dead Haitians ...as if the totality of the defeat is such that for once it cannot be fixed into the American right's usual consolations ("well, this positions us pretty nicely for 2022").
On the leftie side, of course, the court eunuchs have risen as one to protect the Dementia Kid, and are working as hurriedly as the Kabul document-shredders in an effort to figure out a way to blame it all on Trump.
But don't for a moment think this is just some rushed, bungled, memo-incinerating abandonment of the US embassy. State Department diplomats have been preparing this move all summer, under cover of a highly sophisticated deflection operation on their Kabul Twitter feed:
The month of June is recognized as (LGBTI) Pride Month. The United States respects the dignity & equality of LGBTI people & celebrates their contributions to the society. We remain committed to supporting civil rights of minorities, including LGBTI persons. #Pride2021 #PrideMonth
I do hope they've managed to evacuate the embassy's LGBTQWERTY flag before the sacking commences.
One of the depressing aspects of the Swamp is that everything becomes a racket - including even your armed forces. Look at that buffoon at top right, the guy who heads the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Thoroughly Modern Milley: that's an awful lot of chest ribbonry for a nation that hasn't won a war in three-quarters of a century. During his recent wokier-than-thou Congressional testimony on "white rage", I wish someone would have asked Thoroughly Modern what they were all for:
Well, this is for Korea... Vietnam... This small ribbon's for the Jimmy Carter helicopters-in-the-desert fiasco, because that went tits up far quicker than it usually takes... Here's the Pentagon Female Empowerment Award I got for introducing Take Your Child Bride To Work Day to Jalalabad... This one's from the Association of Non-Binary Staff Colleges for Most Transitions in a Single Battalion... Oh, and this most recent one is for getting into a Twitter spat over Tucker Carlson...
If you don't have total contempt for Milley and the rest of the brass right now, you're part of the problem. ... America's Afghan policy, from 1921 to 2021 - and, in defiance of the usual trajectory, first farce, then tragedy. A decade or so back, I quoted Bernard Lewis:
I was on a panel with the great Bernard Lewis a couple of years ago - actually six or seven years ago - and Bernard said that the danger here is that America risks being seen as harmless as an enemy, and treacherous as a friend... It's a very dangerous lesson to teach the planet.
"Harmless as an enemy, and treacherous as a friend": a devastating indictment, and entirely correct. But it neglects the ultimate reality: the bungling superpower can inflict defeat only on itself.".......
Captured drones fly overhead.
The Presidential Palace is deserted.
Chaos reigns.
Fear and Loathing rule the capital city.
The airport is clogged with fleeing Regime members.
Military members strip off their uniforms so as not to be identified.
No one speaks for the old Regime
and their leader has gone into hiding.
Yes, Washington D.C. is quite the mess.
I forget; which government has collapsed?
