U.S. Wastes Nearly $1 Trillion on Afghanistan Reconstruction, Biden to Send $3.3 Billion More


In two decades of failed Afghanistan reconstruction efforts the U.S. government has spent almost a trillion dollars and President Joe Biden wants to dedicate billions more in the aftermath of his disastrous withdraw from the terrorist nation. Judicial Watch has reported extensively on the pervasive waste, fraud and corruption that has long plagued the failed U.S. nation building project in Afghanistan which has seen an exorbitant flow of cash under both Democrat and Republican administrations. To compensate for the absence of American troops, Biden wants to throw in another $3.3 billion on the way out, a $300 million increase over last year, incorporated in the 2022 defense budget.

The U.S. has already wasted an eye-popping $837 billion fighting insurgencies in Afghanistan and $145 billion on building government and military organizations, according to the latest report issued by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstructions (SIGAR). “The extraordinary costs were meant to serve a purpose — though the definition of that purpose evolved over time,” the report states. “At various points, the U.S. government hoped to eliminate al-Qaeda, decimate the Taliban movement that hosted it, deny all terrorist groups a safe haven in Afghanistan, build Afghan security forces so they could deny terrorists a safe haven in the future, and help the civilian government become legitimate and capable enough to win the trust of Afghans.” Clearly none of that was accomplished while “U.S. officials believed the solution to insecurity was pouring ever more resources into Afghan institutions,” the document further states. It discloses that 2,443 U.S. service members have been killed and 20,666 injured in Afghanistan.

The scathing 140-page report, the SIGAR’s last, trashes the U.S. by documenting its many losses in Afghanistan as the Taliban officially takes over the country’s government. Among the shortcomings is the U.S. government’s continuous struggle to develop and implement a coherent strategy, its unrealistic expectations involving the amount of time required to rebuild Afghanistan, unsustainable projects, counterproductive civilian and military policies, and the failure to properly monitor the impact of the costly efforts. “The U.S. government also clumsily forced Western technocratic models onto Afghan economic institutions; trained security forces in advanced weapon systems they could not understand, much less maintain; imposed formal rule of law on a country that addressed 80 to 90 percent of its disputes through informal means; and often struggled to understand or mitigate the cultural and social barriers to supporting women and girls,” the SIGAR writes.

For years the watchdog has exposed a multitude of wasteful transgressions in Afghanistan that should outrage every American taxpayer. Judicial Watch has reported on many of them, including the mysterious disappearance of nearly half a billion dollars in oil destined for the Afghan National Army, a $335 million Afghan power plant that is seldom used and an $18.5 million renovation for a prison that remains unfinished and unused years after the U.S.-funded work began. Among the more outrageous expenditures are U.S. Army contracts with dozens of companies tied to Al Qaeda and the Taliban. A $65 million initiative to help Afghan women escape repression was never monitored so the U.S. admits, because there’s no accountability, record-keeping or follow-up, it has no clue if the program was effective. A few years ago, Judicial Watch reported that a humiliating $8.5 billion counter narcotics effort in Afghanistan actually resulted in a huge increase in poppy cultivation and opium production. Today, Afghanistan is the world’s biggest supplier of illicit opiate.

Last year the SIGAR exposed that a snippet of the congressional budget to reconstruct Afghanistan, still a whopping $19 billion, was lost to fraud, waste, and abuse. In 90% of the cases examined by the watchdog, the money was blown “carelessly, extravagantly, or to no purpose,” according to a troubling report that hardly tells the whole story since it only considers a portion of the spending for that year. “Endemic corruption, widespread insecurity, and a lack of accountability over on-budget assistance continue to make any investments made in Afghanistan vulnerable to waste, fraud and abuse and may threaten the peace process as well as the perceived legitimacy and effectiveness of the Afghan government,” the SIGAR writes in that scandalous report. Reconstruction began in Afghanistan roughly a year after the U.S. invaded the Islamic nation to destroy Al-Qaeda and eradicate the Taliban. It has proven to be a huge debacle that continues fleecing American taxpayers.

Why only NOW is there mounting concern over President Biden’s mental health?




A Daily Mail story from last week reported on the growing concern of doctors and other health experts about the mental state of Joe Biden, the oldest American president ever.

Questions have been raised about US President Joe Biden’s cognitive wellbeing after a car crash interview over his handling of the unfolding Afghanistan crisis. America’s oldest president provided jumbled responses to questions and mixed up details about his son in an interview with ABC. The stumbles did not make the broadcasted version but were revealed when a full transcript of the interview was published overnight.

It revealed the President incorrectly stated his late son Beau Biden worked for the Navy in Afghanistan, before correcting himself that he served for the Army in Iraq. It follows a spate of gaffes and slips of the tongue since the 78-year-old ran his successful presidential campaign in 2019.

This story only highlights a growing slew of news stories and op-eds that have appeared recently during the ongoing debacle in Afghanistan, in both the right and leftwing press, that have noticed how President Biden appears repeatedly confused in interviews while showing signs that he does not quite understand what is going on around him.

Of course, for the press and the political class to recognize these facts now, after Biden has become president, is equivalent to closing the barn door after the animals have escaped. As I noted in October 2020, before the election, these cognitive issues have been obvious for the last two years, and had been getting steadily worse throughout 2020 during the election campaign. As I wrote then,

Joe Biden is exhibiting clear symptoms of failing mental health. It is increasingly obvious he really is unaware of what is going on around him, and this condition appears to be worsening at a frightening pace.

All of this was blatantly obvious in the summer of 2020. It was then that these facts should have been reported by the mainstream press and dealt with by politicians in the Democratic Party.

Instead, the press and Democratic Party politicians covered these facts up. The news organizations did so because they are no longer interested in reporting news, but instead are focused solely on being public relations agents for the Democratic Party. The Democrats did so because they are generally corrupt, power-hungry, and uninterested in doing the best for the nation.

Had these obvious these facts had been discussed and reported in detail before the election, or even better, during the primaries before the Democrats chose Biden as their candidate, we might not be in this situation today. But no, the interests of the Democratic Party trumped the interests of the nation.

How we shall survive the next three and a half years with Joe Biden as president I cannot fathom. Moreover, even if he is removed, his vice-president, Kamala Harris, is an even more troubling politician. When she was California attorney general she tried to use the power of her office to obtain the names of people donating to Republican candidates, with clear evidence the goal was to use that information to harass and threaten those conservatives. Then in 2018 she appeared on television and gleefully joked about killing Trump, Pence, and other Republican politicians.

As vice president she has been less than useless, often vanishing when most needed, and if found acting as if she is responsible for nothing and must not be questioned sharply by anyone on any issue.

Note again these were facts known prior to the 2020 campaign. That I could figure them out, then, but the mainstream press could not, speaks really badly of that press.

Even worse, it suggests how divorced from reality the so-called “intellectual” and mostly leftist leadership of our nation has truly become. Their failure to recognize Biden’s health issues, their bankrupt policy that led to the collapse in Afghanistan, their insane response, still continuing, to COVID, all indicate their general incompetence and intellectual dishonesty. Such people should be kept as far from the reins of power as possible. Instead, we as a nation have let them hold those reins, for decades, even as they have repeatedly revealed their incompetence time after time after time.

Presstitutes and their ilk have foisted this steaming poo of a man into the White House and look at this little retard go. The "Buck Stops With Him"??? Joe O'Biden...the only President ever that if you gave him a penny he'd give you back change!

Deep State Failure: Russ Travers, Fired by Trump, Is in Top Afghan Evacuation Role Under Biden



As recriminations fly among Biden administration officials over who bungled the Afghanistan withdrawal, some are questioning the responsibility of Russell Travers, who was fired by the Trump administration as acting head of the National Counterterrorism Center and subsequently rehired by President Joe Biden to lead the interagency process on the evacuation operation.

In March 2020, then-Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell fired Travers as acting head of the NCTC as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to streamline a bloated agency and remove ineffective individuals.

At the time, the move was decried by anonymous former officials as a “purge” of career professionals, as the Washington Post reported. “The removals have shocked Travers’s colleagues, who are upset at the treatment of someone so well-regarded, according to the two former officials,” the Post reported.


Travers would later in October 2020 sign a letter declaring the belief that the disclosure of emails found on Hunter Biden’s laptop “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”

In January, Biden rehired Travers as deputy homeland security adviser at the National Security Council to go after domestic extremists.

In June, Biden promoted Travers to senior deputy homeland security adviser at the NSC and put him in charge of evacuating Afghan special immigrant visa (SIV) applicants to the U.S., according to Politico.

Travers had boasted about how well the evacuation plan was going on July 29, 2021, on a conference call with reporters:

I am immensely proud to announce our first group of Afghan special immigrants to be relocated under Operation Allies Refuge is now on their way to America. This flight represents a fulfillment of the U.S. commitment and honors these Afghans’ brave service in helping support our mission in Afghanistan, in turn helping to keep our country safe.

The plan to evacuate Afghan SIV applicants is now in disarray, and there are estimates of as many as 65,000 or more Afghans scrambling to get out of Afghanistan and come to the U.S. or another yet to be determined location.

Thousands of Afghans had rushed to the Hamid Karzai International Airport last weekend as the Taliban closed in on the capital after the Biden administration failed to predict the speed of the collapse of the U.S.-backed Afghan government and military.

Hundreds were seen flooding the airport’s tarmac and disrupting evacuation operations, with some Afghans trying to cling to an Air Force C-17 in an attempt to evacuate, plunging to their deaths with others being trampled on the runway.


There have also been scenes of desperate Afghan parents passing their infants over the airport’s perimeter to U.S. service members. On Sunday, there were reports of a two-year-old Afghan girl being trampled to death. Even Biden administration officials have admitted the scenes are “heartbreaking.”

In addition, the thousands of Afghans crowding around the airport’s perimeter have made it difficult for Americans trapped in Afghanistan to flee. The Pentagon said Saturday that 17,000 have been evacuated from Kabul since August 14, and 2,500 of those are Americans.

The Biden administration had originally committed to bringing Afghans who helped the U.S. military to safety but have reportedly expanded those efforts to other Afghans looking to escape.


The evacuation efforts have gone so badly that Americans and other nations’ citizens have set up their own private efforts to evacuate their citizens and Afghans who have helped them.

The U.S. Embassy in Kabul on Sunday told Afghans who are part of those private efforts, “Please do not come to the airport unless you have received specific instructions to travel” there.

This chaotic outcome was despite bipartisan pressure on Biden since mid-July to do more to ensure that the tens of thousands of Afghans who helped the U.S. would not be targeted by the Taliban, according to Bloomberg.

Former Trump administration officials are not surprised the current evacuation efforts are not going well, given that Travers was put in charge.

“Privately, men and women that I served with have been doing more to get SIVs out of the country than Russ Travers and the White House. They have been chartering flights, they have been putting together programs, contacting allies, and then when they try to get people out of country, they’re told by the U.S. government that ‘you’re not allowed,’ so it’s just tragic all around,” said Kash Patel, a former Grenell deputy at DNI and former Pentagon chief of staff.

“The SIV programs falls squarely on Russ Travers, but ultimately the White House. They gave it to him to do, and either him or they or both didn’t do anything,” Patel added.

Reached by Breitbart News, Grenell said about Travers, “I replaced him as head of the Counterterrorism Center and I put in a career official who was eager to reform the place.”

Joe Biden Appears to Fall Asleep While Meeting With Israeli PM


While Afghanistan collapses, COVID rages, and the U.S. economy stagnates, you can take heart in the fact that we have an energetic, dedicated leader ready to tackle any issue that comes his way.

Alright, so you can’t take heart in that — because the president is actually Joe Biden. But still, surely he can at least remain awake long enough to meet with the Israeli prime minister. I mean, it’s not like that’s a demanding assignment.

Apparently, that was too much to ask, though. Biden appears to have fallen asleep at one point during the meeting, and I don’t mean that as a joke about the fact that he consistently looks out of it. I mean that it looks like he literally fell asleep.

He’s fine, you guys. This is fine.

https://twitter.com/MartyBent/status/1431408375133360130?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1431408375133360130%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbonchie%2F2021%2F08%2F28%2Fjoe-biden-appears-to-fall-asleep-while-meeting-with-israeli-pm-n434335

To appease the fact-checkers, I’ll note that I can’t tell for sure that he’s asleep here. Perhaps he’s just resting his eyes? I don’t know, but what I do know is that there’s nothing normal about Biden hanging his head for 30+ seconds this way, instead of having his attention locked on the head of state he’s ostensibly there to speak with. At one point, the video zooms in and you can see that his eyes are closed.

This gives a window into what the president’s handlers have to deal with on a daily basis. When he shows up five hours late for a vital press conference on Afghanistan or disappears for days on end, it’s probably because he’s not even awake.

There’s something wrong with Joe Biden, and whatever stimulants they’ve been giving him in the past aren’t working very well anymore. How does this man make it another 3+ years? I just don’t see how it’s possible, and suggestions that he’ll run for re-election are laughable.

More and more people are noticing what the rest of us have seen for years. Biden is a man in steep physical and mental decline. Further, that decline is affecting his emotional health as well, with angry outbursts becoming more and more common.

There’s no way he can lead this nation any longer, something that’s become abundantly clear over the last two weeks, and if the president had any shame, he’d resign.

Treason: Afghanistan Disaster Is More Proof Biden Is Owned Lock, Stock and Barrel by China



The tragedy and catastrophe that just happened in Afghanistan is more proof positive of my contention -- President Joe Biden, his family and his Democrat puppet handlers are China-owned. They are doing China's bidding.

The Biden crime family is owned lock, stock and barrel by China and the Chinese Communist Party. Biden's stolen presidency is the best thing to ever happen to China.

I don't need to remind all of you of what just happened in Afghanistan. Everyone saw it. The question is, can you believe your own eyes? How could this happen? This is the worst debacle in U.S. foreign policy history. And it threatens to become the worst catastrophic failure in U.S. military history. Why? Because it was all foreseeable and preventable.

If only Biden and the Democrats were as good at foreign policy as they are at rigging and stealing elections. We'd be ruling the world, not taking orders from the Taliban.

But all those American GIs dead and wounded (and all their devastated parents) don't even represent the worst-case scenario. Biden is leaving Americans behind to fend for themselves. There is no way out. How many will be murdered? How many will be tortured and raped and starved? How many will be held hostage for a billion-dollar ransom? This is like shooting fish in a barrel. This is potentially the greatest public-relations scenario ever for the Islamic State group.

I've warned for many months now that Biden is the most corrupt president in history. I believe he and his family are owned lock, stock and barrel by the Chinese Communist Party.

Everything Biden has done, every action, every statement and every policy since his inauguration has weakened America and enriched China. None of this can be a mistake or coincidence. Biden and his puppet handlers are beholden to China.

Let's examine the "mistakes" of Afghanistan. A picture emerges. These aren't mistakes.

First up, who evacuates the military first, leaving thousands of American citizens unprotected from bloodthirsty savages? Everyone knows you evacuate the citizens first, then the equipment and lastly the military. No one could be stupid enough to send the military home first. This was no mistake. This is TREASON.

Second, who leaves $85 billion of military equipment on the ground? Overnight, we just made the Taliban the 26th most powerful military in the world -- with your taxpayer money. Who does that? No one is this stupid. This was no mistake. This is TREASON.

Third, who puts the Taliban in full charge of security for American citizens? This is pure insanity. That would be like putting the Gestapo or SS in charge of getting Jews safely out of Germany. No one could be that naive. This was no mistake. This was TREASON.

Everyone involved in this decision should be arrested or court-martialed. Tragically, our Obama- and Biden-appointed military leaders are too focused on COVID-19 vaccines for an illness with a 99.7% survival rate; critical race theory; climate change; purging all white conservatives from the military; and paying for sex reassignment surgeries.

Biden trusted the Taliban to protect our soldiers and citizens? Aren't they the enemy? Aren't they radical Islamic terrorists? Don't they execute people in the street? Don't they steal little girls to rape, enslave and marry? Wasn't all of Afghanistan running for their lives a few days ago from the vicious, bloodthirsty Taliban? But Biden made them our partners?

But wait, it gets worse. Biden gave the names of our citizens and Afghan allies to the Taliban to allow them through the gates of the Kabul airport. That's a "Kill List" for the Islamic State group to hunt down all our people. The U.S. government has officially named the Taliban "terrorists." And Biden is handing the names of our citizens to terrorists? This is no mistake. This is TREASON.

What president would even consider leaving Americans behind to be murdered or held hostage for ransom? This is no mistake. This is TREASON.

Who spends 20 years, trillions of taxpayer dollars and American lives and limbs, then just runs away so China can waltz right in and take possession of all the lithium and rare-earth minerals? No one is this dumb. This is no mistake. This is TREASON.

Every action Biden takes weakens America and enriches China: The open border and shipping COVID-19-infected refugees all over our country; vaccine mandates; the budget-busting green infrastructure deal; killing our energy industry; and paying millions of Americans to not work. Now disaster in Afghanistan. Biden is destroying America and helping China become the dominant force in the world.

These aren't mistakes. This is TREASON.

Biden Must Stay



The withdrawal of US and NATO troops from Afghanistan is the biggest scoop of the year 2021, that has already topped the coronavirus crisis. Less than in two weeks after the capital was surrendered to Taliban, the country has already been in chaos. The tectonic changes in the entire world system caused by the fleeing of Western soldiers have already been analyzed from every possible angle. The actions of US President Joe Biden were evaluated not only by leading experts, but also by every armchair expert.

But time flies, and the international community remembered that this was Trump who had signed a deal with the Taliban. In his turn, has finally come back from his vacation and promptly comments on the situation in Kabul, strictly following his rhetoric, without giving any sensational reasons for discussions in the media. Social networks were no longer exploding with videos of Afghans falling from planes, and the numbers of evacuees from the country were, not fast enough, but steadily growing. The Taliban now control the perimeter of the airport, cooperating with US forces, to the point that they have reportedly got the personal data of local citizens who have cooperated with the US and who cannot get into the airport. Even in the Panjshir region, the Taliban have finally managed to negotiate with local resistance forces.

Despite the attempts of the media to squeeze the latest sensational news out of Afghanistan, it seemed that the situation was approaching its stabilization, albeit fragile.

But no such luck. Once again, the world media exploded with news from Afghanistan, just at the moment when CNN claimed that the evacuation of US citizens and local staff of the American embassy was supposed to end in less then two days.

The terrorist attacks rocked Kabul, claiming lives of more than a hundred people, and even more others were injured.

At least 13 U.S. servicemen were killed. The United States has not known such one-time losses in Afghanistan for ten years, since terrorists shot down a helicopter with navy seals in the Afghan province of Wardak in August 2011, killing 31 American special forces, including 22 fighters of the elite group 6 SEAL.

The bombings in Kabul were too bloody and caused a great resonance. There is no doubt that their final goal followed some political interests. But cui prodest?

ISIS in Afghanistan hastened to take responsibility for the attack.

Islamic State — Khorasan was created by radical representatives of the Taliban six years ago. According to the recent report by UN experts, the number of ISIS-K members is currently about 1,500-2,000. They accuse the Taliban of colluding with the United States and call them enemies of the Afghan people who forgot that foreign invaders should be killed.

However, terrorists’ ties with the US special services have long been known. For example, when last year the Taliban stormed a government prison where captured ISIS militants were being held, the terrorists did not refuse the US help, and American servicemen took out some of the prisoners by helicopters. After that, the Taliban accused the United States, the government of Afghanistan and ISIS of colluding against the Taliban and the Afghan people. Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai claimed that the Vilayat Khorasan is the US tool in Afghanistan.

Did these couple of thousand ISIS members get mad on the Taliban that they did not share their American friends and decided to remind of themselves with such bloody attacks?

On the other hand, it was known about the upcoming terrorist attacks long before the explosions. The Pentagon was the first to report about them. Immediately pointing to ISIS, they said that ISIS had threatened a terrorist attack at the Kabul airport since Afghanistan came under the control of the Taliban. The US was allegedly trying to prevent ISIS from these attacks, simply claiming about them in the media, without doing anything to somehow improve the security at the airport.

Those, who de facto received important political benefits paying with hundreds of lives that were claimed by the explosions in Kabul, were granted with a very convenient position, hiding behind the accusations against ISIS.

There is no doubt that one of the main goals of the terrorist attacks at the Kabul airport was to discredit the activities of US President Biden. This is interesting not to ISIS, but to some political elites in the United States. If ISIS-K pursued tactical goals by conducting terrorist attacks, then a certain part of the White House administration came closer to implementing their strategic goals via the explosions.

Rumors about the Biden’s early resignation have been circulating for several months. Now he is under unprecedented pressure from his own entourage, being forced to resign under the pretext of some health problems.

Today, two-thirds of Americans have a negative attitude to the U.S. withdrawing from Afghanistan. The rating of the US president has a steady downward trend. And all this was before the bombings in Kabul and the victims among the American military.

Such a scandal around the situation in Kabul led to the desired result, to the fact that Biden was criticized not only by Republicans, but also by Democrats. Unity on policy and politics in Biden’s party has appeared to unravel a bit after the Taliban’s lightning-fast takeover of Afghanistan. Despite the fact that the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan was supported by Democrats and even a majority of Republicans.

“I am disappointed that the Biden administration clearly did not accurately assess the implications of a rapid U.S. withdrawal. We are now witnessing the horrifying results of many years of policy and intelligence failures,” Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chair Bob Menendez.

“This certainly has not been a good day for America. The images we saw coming out of Afghanistan show a tremendous humanitarian crisis. This is going to hurt us, no question about it,” Senate Foreign Relations Committee Member Ben Cardin, D-Md.

The events in Kabul dealt a heavy blow to Biden administration. In addition to the ongoing demands for impeachment, the US House of Representatives and the US Senate insist on organizing an official investigation into the circumstances of the decision to withdraw troops and the process of their withdrawal from Afghanistan in order to establish the measure of guilt of the current administration.

After the arrival of the new administration in the White House, US groups of influence are still fighting for power. Against this background, various incidents related to the US withdrawal from Afghanistan could be seen from another angle. For example, the alleged mistakes of US intelligence, who provided Biden with biased data, could be a deliberate distortion of facts aimed at ensuring that Biden was not ready at the moment when the situation in Afghanistan collapsed. As a result, Biden tried to relax on his vacation in Maryland, and could not even answer in time for the chaos in Kabul.

As a result, the “expected terrorist attacks” brought Biden closer to the potential resignation. And the real beneficiary of these attacks is the one who approached the presidential chair in the Oval Office, namely the infamous Vice President Kamala Harris.

The American deep state is interested in her coming to power. A significant part of the American military establishment is interested in her presidency, taking into account the multibillion-dollar budgets that were wasted in Afghanistan.

In a short time, she has already proven her adherence to militant neoliberal ideology, in fact, neoliberal fascism.

A year ago, Trump referred to “55-year-old Black woman”, as she identifies herself, as “one of the most liberal” senators.

Unlike Biden, if Harris comes to power, an escalation against China or Russia, whose western borders will probably soon face the deployment of all the military contingent from Afghanistan, is inevitable. She would push the rhetoric against China on the Uighur Muslims and Hong Kong issues. Allegedly fighting for human rights, she would escalate the rhetoric against the Russian “authoritarian” regime, as well as Saudi Arabia, Syria and North Korea.

At the same time, Harris remains a firm backer of Israel. Her first foreign policy vote in January 2017 was to criticize the UN for condemning the country on its settlements in Palestinian territories. She takes an active part in the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), a US lobbying group that advocates for a strong US-Israel relationship.

“[The] first resolution I co-sponsored as a United States senator was to combat anti-Israel bias at the United Nations and reaffirm that the United States seeks a just, secure, and sustainable two-state solution,” she told.

Her coming in power would lead not only to deterioration of relationships with other states but to another destabilization in the U.S.

Thus, Biden now acts as a certain deterrent for the next round of aggression from the United States. His task is to “guard the red button” for the next six months or a year, until the Washington elites calm down. If Harris comes to power without being chosen by the Americans, the probability of a global conflict next year will increase significantly.

This is what the Democrats want in a leader!

Biden repeatedly implies he’s not in charge of when, where he can take questions from the press
'I’m not supposed to take any question,' Biden told reporters on Sunday


In media news today, Obama's former education secretary gets slammed for likening anti-maskers to Kabul suicide bombers, Disney faces internal pressure to conduct an outside probe of ABC News' handling of sexual harassment claims, and ABC's Jon Karl says Biden admin calling Afghanistan a success is not based in 'reality'

President Joe Biden has repeatedly implied that his handlers set the rules and determine when and where he’s allowed to take questions from the press, leading observers to ponder who is actually calling the shots behind the scenes.

The trend began with Biden’s first formal White House press conference as president in January. Following his remarks about his "Made in America" manufacturing initiative, a member of Biden's staff was heard calling on specific reporters to ask their questions to the president, something that was similarly done during the 2020 presidential election and the transition period. However, the president has since escalated the practice and Biden has repeatedly suggested he’s not in the driver’s seat when it comes to handling the press.

BIDEN TAKES QUESTIONS FROM MOSTLY PRE-SELECTED REPORTERS AT FIRST FORMAL PRESS CONFERENCE AS POTUS

"I’m not supposed to take any questions"

Biden declared Sunday he wasn’t "supposed to take any questions" during a visit to the National Response Coordination Center at FEMA headquarters as Hurricane Ida slammed Louisiana.

"I’m not supposed to take any questions, but go ahead," Biden said to a reporter before quickly changing his mind when he was asked about Afghanistan.

"I’m not gonna answer Afghanistan now," he said before turning his back to the press and walking away.

https://twitter.com/Forbes/status/1432077355946811393?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1432077355946811393%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.foxnews.com%2Fmedia%2Fbiden-implies-handlers-are-in-charge

BIDEN MOCKED FOR AGAIN USING PREPARED LIST OF REPORTERS AFTER GENEVA SUMMIT: 'EMBARRASSING'

"Instructed"

Biden also raised eyebrows last week when he took questions from reporters for the first time since the Kabul terror attacks that left 11 Marines, one Army soldier and a Navy corpsman dead.

While presidents have often relied on pre-set lists of reporters to call on at formal press conferences, his phrasing that he was "instructed" to choose a certain journalist drew attention.

"Ladies and gentlemen, they gave me a list here. The first person I was instructed to call on was Kelly O'Donnell from NBC," Biden said.

"As usual… they gave me a list"

Biden was mocked for "saying the quiet part out loud" in June when he admitted at the outset of his press conference in Geneva he would only be calling on reporters from a prepared list.

"I’ll take your questions, and as usual, folks, they gave me a list of the people I’m going to call on," Biden told the press following his anticipated meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Observers wondered whether the "they" Biden referred to was his communications team.

It's unclear whether Biden is trying to be folksy when he uses that kind of language.

BIDEN MUTTERS HE'LL 'GET IN TROUBLE WITH MY STAFF' FOR TAKING EXTRA QUESTION

"I’m going to get in trouble"

Biden joked when taking questions at a press conference in June following the G-7 summit, claiming that his staff will be upset with him if he does not conduct the event as they wish.

Early on in the question-and-answer portion of the program, Biden was quick to inform reporters that he would operate strictly by the book.

"I’m sorry, I’m going to get in trouble with staff if I don’t do this the right way," Biden said before calling on Bloomberg's Jennifer Jacobs.

"I'm really gonna be in trouble"

Biden also said he would be "in trouble" if he continued to take questions from reporters during a rare back-and-forth with the press in April.

After speaking about new federal health guidelines for mask-wearing for vaccinated and non-vaccinated individuals, Biden answered a few shouted questions from gathered reporters at the White House.

"I'm sorry," he said, after listening to questions about his own mask-wearing and a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin. "This is the last question I'll take, and I'm really gonna be in trouble."


"I'd be happy to take questions if that's what I'm supposed to do"

Biden’s unusual word choice when it comes to answering questions doesn’t only apply to the press. The White House confused onlookers in March when it suddenly cut the feed of a virtual event after Biden said he was "happy to take questions" from Democratic lawmakers.

Accompanied by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. and the House Democratic Caucus, Biden addressed lawmakers on the topics of COVID relief and the ongoing vaccine rollout. He closed his remarks by calling on Democrats to help "restore faith" in government. He then appeared ready to take questions.

"I'd be happy to take questions if that's what I'm supposed to do, Nance," Biden told the speaker. "Whatever you want me to do."

The feed ended seconds later, after a brief pause from the president.

Its apparent that the DNC doesn't like America, Americans, the military, their allies nor the idiots that keep voting for them because they keep on tossing in complete imbeciles and they vote for them! It's a race to the bottom with them. Every time you want to believe they hit bottom, they break out the excavating equipment and dig another basement! This isn't leadership. This is a f'ing joke now!

Well... he is Dr. MAD Vibe... kinda like The Mad Hatter... only without the tea pots and rabbits.

Well, maybe he has those things... but I doubt he's got the big top hat... but if he's banging a hot blonde named Alice with big tits... well, MAD Props to the good Dr.

So it sounds like Tony is concerned about a fellow board member... not about what the president forgot about this morning.

What We Left Behind in Afghanistan



Many of the reports coming out of Afghanistan this past week mention something that’s simultaneously deplored and swept under the rug.

I mean the fact that when the United States raised the white flag to the Taliban, it left behind an enormous amount of American-made military hardware.

Just a couple of weeks ago, all of that war-making matériel had been the property of two entities.

Some belonged to U.S. forces. A lot of it belonged to the U.S.-supplied Afghan military—the mighty 300,000-man-strong force that, on July 8, President Joe Biden said would prevail over the Taliban if push came to shove.

Push did come to shove, as we all know, and now those vast stores of military hardware are under the sole control of the Taliban.

There have been several differing inventories of those stockpiles. One just published in the London Times provides what’s perhaps the most authoritative accounting published to date.

Scattered in seven Afghan army garrisons across the country, from Kabul and Kandahar to Herāt, Mazār-i-Sharīf, and Kunduz, those arms depots include an impressive amount of U.S. military hardware: 22,174 armored Humvees, 42 pickup trucks and SUVS, 64,363 machine guns, 162,043 radios. 16,035 night-vision goggles, 358,530 assault rifles (the real ones, not the “assault rifles” that Joe Biden warns about in the United States), 126,295 pistols, and 176 artillery pieces.

And that’s just for starters. The United States also generously left behind more than 100 helicopters, including 33 Blackhawks, four C-130 transport planes, and about 60 other fixed-wing aircraft.

There was also plenty of ammunition to go along with all of that loot.

The question that hasn’t really been pressed about this rather awe-inspiring armory is, why?

Why did we leave it behind to be used by the Taliban?

I don’t believe that question has been addressed with anything resembling the determination that it deserves.

Some people have suggested that it was just a matter of simple incompetence on the part of the Biden administration, particularly the State Department, which is overseeing the evacuation, and the president himself, who apparently chose to ignore advice from some of his advisers about the time table for the evacuation.

But I suspect that there’s something more insidious at work than simple incompetence.

What we’re dealing with here is politicized and, therefore, malevolent incompetence.

This is beginning to be recognized in some surprising venues.

The New York Times just published an op-ed by Elliot Ackerman, a former Marine who’s part of a group of “veterans, journalists, and activists” who have been privately helping to organize evacuation efforts in Afghanistan for months.

“Never,” Ackerman wrote, “have I witnessed a greater, swifter collapse of competence than what I have seen with the U.S. evacuation of Afghanistan.”

Nor is he shy about identifying the source of the pandemonium: “Events at the airport—desperation, death—indicate the extreme chaos that ensues when the commander in chief doesn’t actually understand the value of service.”

Like many observers, Ackerman focuses mainly on the chaos in Kabul.

But I continue to wonder about all that firepower and supporting matériel that we left behind.

Why did we do so? Why didn’t we destroy it?

As far as I know, no one has answered those questions.

Of course, military hardware isn’t all that we left behind.

The evacuation “mission” is apparently also leaving behind hundreds of Americans.

“Biden is not letting U.S. citizens through the airport gates. It has been impossible to get anyone through for the last 24 hours,” according to Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas), among others.

“This administration has been lying about their intent to save Americans. Unforgivable.”

Biden has been quick to try to shift the blame for this whole debacle onto Donald Trump. “He made a deal with the Taliban!” is his constant refrain.

But Biden neglects to point out that Trump had a plan to leave by the beginning of May, before the start of the “summer fighting season” and well before the Taliban had overrun the country.

Biden came up with his own timetable for the optics: He wanted to be able to claim the credit for ending “America’s longest war” and to do so in a way that would deny Trump any credit for it.

It has backfired spectacularly, and the blowback, I predict, is far from over.

For those who wonder about the kinder, gentler Taliban with which Biden is partnering, we’re already getting some vivid indications.

Sure, they post pictures of themselves eating ice cream to taunt Biden. I’ve even seen reports that they’ve bought or are planning to buy a painting by Hunter Biden to install in the presidential palace. Maybe that’s satire. Who knows?

The Biden administration and its media poodles keep suggesting that the Taliban may be turning over a new leaf. I think you would have to be mad to think so.

One representative incident: The London Times is reporting that “Taliban fighters have shot dead an Afghan folk singer after it outlawed music and women’s voices on television and radio in the bellwether province of Kandahar, laying the ground for a nationwide ban in an echo of the brutal Islamist regime of 20 years ago.”

Uh oh.

What have we left behind in Afghanistan?

The brilliant editorial cartoonist Michael P. Ramirez provided the crispest summary in his cartoon for today.

A big transport helicopter is flying over our (former) embassy in Kabul. One speech balloon asks, “What did we leave behind?”

The other answers, “Our credibility.”

Unless you're a Democrat! They NEVER had any!!!!


At this point the NRA should start running full ad campaign blitzes telling America that Joe Biden is giving away automatic rifles for FREE!!!
