Daily Verse | Jeremiah 46:28c
“I will discipline you but only with justice;
I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”
Friday and the end of the week. When I put on the moves, I’m talking about chess.
You’ve undoubtedly heard that the exit from Afghanistan just keeps getting worse and worse. Yesterday saw the worst day for U.S. troops in ten years.
A suicide bomb attack Thursday outside the Abbey Gate at Kabul’s airport in Afghanistan killed 13 U.S. service members and injured at least 18 more, U.S. officials said – making it the deadliest day for U.S. troops in 10 years.
Officials told Fox News late Thursday that those killed included 10 Marines, two Army soldiers and a Navy corpsman, correcting earlier reports that 12 Marines were killed.
In a press conference, Resident Biden said that he bears “responsibility for fundamentally all that’s happened of late.” Good on him for saying so. But that lasted little more than 30 seconds before he pivoted and pointed fingers at president Trump for setting a deadline by May 1, 2021, implying that the former president was to blame for the violence.
“You know as well as I do that a former president made a deal with the Taliban that he would get all American forced out of Afghanistan by May 1,” Biden said.
In addition to the human slaughter, and perhaps invoking more of it, we learned yesterday that the Biden administration gave the Taliban the names of American citizens and our Afghan allies. The Taliban!
U.S. officials in Kabul gave the Taliban a list of names of American citizens, green card holders and Afghan allies to grant entry into the militant-controlled outer perimeter of the city’s airport, a choice that’s prompted outrage behind the scenes from lawmakers and military officials …
But the decision to provide specific names to the Taliban, which has a history of brutally murdering Afghans who collaborated with the U.S. and other coalition forces during the conflict, has angered lawmakers and military officials …
“Basically, they just put all those Afghans on a kill list,” said one defense official, who like others spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive topic. “It’s just appalling and shocking and makes you feel unclean.”
Great imagery, that. Those of us who still have a moral center are outraged over this cataclysmic clown show being run by very stupid people.
Asked about POLITICO’s reporting during a Thursday news conference, President Joe Biden said he wasn’t sure there were such lists, but also didn’t deny that sometimes the U.S. hands over names to the Taliban.
Scum alert: the “Tally-ban,” as Biden calls them, are known for executing Afghans who worked with Americans.
Biden promised us this would not be a Saigon moment and, by golly, it isn’t. It’s a hundred times worse.
He doesn’t have a clue what’s going on. In fact, he admitted that he’s told who to call on when conducting a presser.
While it has become normalized for the president to rely on a list of pre-selected reporters, he made a rather stunning admission in the process.
“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 kicked off the press conference.
Who’s in charge here? Who’s “instructing” the Resident? Is Joe Biden really that incapable? (I know, rhetorical question.)
Josh Hawley called for Biden’s resignation.
The man that the U.S. media and “81 million voters” put in office. God help us all.
