There are two puzzle pieces that help to make sense of the Politico report about “U.S. Officials” giving the Taliban a list of American and U.S. Afghan names to allow through the checkpoints. {GO DEEP 1 and GO DEEP 2} However, if you don’t understand the two dueling power teams -each attempting to position- it doesn’t make sense.
Remember, the State Dept (DoS) and CIA are one team. The White House and Pentagon are another team.
♦ TEAM One – The Department of State is aligned with the CIA. Their media PR firms are CNN, CNNi and the Washington Post. Their ideology is favorable to the United Nations. Their internal corruption is generally driven by relationship with foreign actors. References: Hillary Clinton, Clinton Global Initiative, John McCain, Qatar, Muslim Brotherhood, Samantha Powers, Susan Rice, Cass Sunstein, Brookings Institute, Lawfare, China-centric, Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Council on Foreign Relations.
♦ TEAM Two – The White House is aligned with the Pentagon (DoD) and National Security Council (NSC). Their media PR firms are domestic in nature. New York Times, Politico, etc. Their internal corruption is generally driven by domestic influence. References: Barack Obama, George Bush, Wall St, Big Banks, Multinational Corporations, Defense Contractors, FBI (state police), Judicial Branch, and community activists writ large.
Both teams are highly political. However, the State Dept/CIA team consider themselves above political changes; essentially the deeper Deep State.
With the DoS/CIA aligned with CNN/WaPo, when the Pentagon needs to defend their specific interests in crisis management, they must go elsewhere, hence Politico.
From the Politico Article:
“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.”
The move, detailed to POLITICO by three U.S. and congressional officials, was designed to expedite the evacuation of tens of thousands of people from Afghanistan as chaos erupted in Afghanistan’s capital city last week after the Taliban seized control of the country. It also came as the Biden administration has been relying on the Taliban for security outside the airport.
[…] 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.” (more)
So it’s fair to say the aggrieved party is the Pentagon in this scenario…. which aligns with Politico receiving the information from the military perspective.
Applying the dynamic of interests from the previous history between the teams, it would appear the State Dept. and CIA gave the Taliban the list.
Indeed, the quick dispatch of the problem of stranded Americans is a ‘toxically political’ priority issue for the State Department. Additionally, the previous meeting between CIA Director William J Burns and the Taliban leadership now takes on a fulsome context.
It was a decision by the DoS and CIA to share the list and get the evacuation facilitated in the most expedient fashion possible. However, from a tactical perspective it put the Pentagon, charged with Kabul airport security, in a slightly compromised position.
Both teams were responsible for the Afghanistan mess. In the aftermath of the mess; and with the current situation in/around Kabul, each team is positioning to avoid scrutiny. Scrutiny on either team runs the risk of identifying massive corruption; so the objective is to push the spotlight onto the other team. State Dept. blames White House/Pentagon…. Pentagon/White House looking to avoid sunlight.
The Pentagon (arrows) is supposed to working in coordination with State (olive branch), but both institutions are corrupt regarding Afghanistan; so it’s a game of hot potato. If the executive office wasn’t corrupt, the eagle would be having whiplash; alas, the White House was/is an active participant. [So much for school civic ‘checks-n-balances’ eh?]
Externally, we are seeing the executive appointed heads of each faction battling for position on behalf of their institution. The media get to pick and choose which faction they will support. CNN will support the State Dept. ABC, CBS, NBC will lean slightly toward the White House/Pentagon.
Modify the focus of your review of events in/around Afghanistan to see the connective tissue between CNN, the State Department and CIA [strongest institution within the Intelligence Branch]. Then keep in mind, the Senate is in alignment with, and a facilitator for, the Intelligence Branch. As a consequence, the institution of the Senate will align with the interests of the State Department; and, by default align with the CIA, intelligence community and CNN/WaPo reporting.
The modern U.S. State Dept is an independent, bureaucratic, and massive foreign policy institution that does not accept any oversight. They are able to accomplish their independent position by partnering with intelligence agencies. The Dept of State use the U.S. Intelligence Branch as a weapon against any individual or entity who would attempt oversight.
The deepest, swampiest part of the Deep State is protecting its interests against the outcome of a crisis in Afghanistan they collectively created. The picture has now emerged of their plan to blame the White House, and by extension Joe Biden along with the Pentagon.
To be honest, I find this blame game to be very amusing. I mean, other than the fact innocent people were sacrificed, it’s funny. Not funny-funny, but you get the drift.
The buck stops with the Administration and Joe Biden. Kamala too. And, every single fool, including family, actually voted (not the plethora of fake votes) for him. This includes those who defend him now.
I am tired of hearing talking heads, including the WH, saying we needed to get out. It was time. These fools. They truly believe we are that stupid…..no one is saying we shouldn’t think of getting out; it’s the how. The darn how and I’m tired of CNN, MSNBC, Pelosi, Biden, Harris, Madcow, etc., telling us that this had to happen. No, innocent people didn’t have to die but sadly Biden cheated and won so now we have to live with unfettered illegals, a new surge of unvetted refugees, lawlessness from the WH, military members saying they will shoot citizens in the US during Martial Law, and this debacle on the world stage. Not to mention Wuhan funding, lying by the CDC, oppression by the same, and more.
I hate these people.
We learned a hard lesson, the depth and corruption of the swamp was incomprehensible ( to me at least) no way one man could drain it alone, although President Trump sure tried.
Steve Bannon suggested it would take at least 16 years–4 straight terms–of MAGA administrations. policies just to right the ship again…much more to bring it to Harbor. The entrenched corruption, the Deep State, runs so deep.
Problem is, we’ve never had 4 consecutive administrations that followed the constitution. I don’t see this happening.
We just might, now… (fingers crossed) True Patriots are hoppin’ mad…
And it only took them 7 months to give Obama his birthday present: the destruction of the United States.
Destruction of US- not yet. Just like Cuomo thought he could play God and state that “God did not stop the spread of this virus”, this regime will fail as well by the grace of God through their own words / actions.
THE Untied States of America has NOT fallen. Just the people in Government…BUT rest assured, there are some who will not let this country fall.
NOTE: “Against ALL enemies BOTH foreign and DOMESTIC”!!!!
His 8 years went a long way toward that goal…
We might have been born at night but it was not last night I hope the people that voted for these people have sleepless nights at least for what they have done.
We could hope but . . . nah.
Are you kidding me? Clueless know-it-alls admit they were wrong?
My siblings in Northern Virginia, Colorado and Georgia, all professionals with advanced degrees, voted for this destruction and like sociopaths, they have no remorse and think themselves morally superior to Trump supporters.
They will die before they admit they were wrong.
Whoa, whoa. Where did you read that “military members saying they will shoot citizens in the US during Martial Law.”?
One (1) service member said that. Can’ t remember where I saw it, but the girl reminded me of an angry pink-haired soccer player.
“If you don’t get in your house when I tell you to you become the enemy.”

You need to add the proper characters to make this Twitter link work.
The scary part … maybe the one who said it … said it due to her mind-bending-suggestive psyop training of CRT & all things woke … we all now know the military brass is made up of traitors … and the new recruits are likely ANTIFA/BLM rejects.
This is why the military top brass are purging the ones who will uhold the Constitution.
There are six of the “Top Brass” and only two of those are reported to be *Woke.*
Especially Gen. Berger, the Marine’s head guy is not ‘woke,’ nor are the majority of the marines.
Further, the Pentagon, nor any of these ‘top brass’ including the pro-Trump factions are in control of any of this. Can Gen. Miley be allowed to created absurd fiascos like the withdrawal from Afghanistan? Of course, as the full corruption needs to be exposed thoroughly. Miley and the head of the National Guard are total puppets, who do exactly what they are told by DS actors.
The Special Ops leaders like Chris Miller and the main Special Ops Teams are in the background controlling things, or most of us would be rounded up and in camps by now. None of these Special Ops teams are Woke or Infiltrated.
There are no pro-Trump factions in the Pentagon.
Eagle61, It was a Tic Toc video @misterdarling- Travis@TWines4Congress copied and put on twitter. I don’t know how to post twitter URLs on here.
Travis said she had deleted on Tic Toc, but he had made a copy. It’s really something to see.
I cannot have that info,,,,but you need to realize that the military is part of the executive branch, which representatives the ‘King’, and they have mostly supported the ‘King’ throghout history. NOT ALL of them will do that in America, but some will,,,,the same types that voted for bIDEN.
Literally… close to none of the critical warriors will go this *Woke Way.* Almost all of the Marines will go Trump’s and the patriots way, and any minor woke idiots in these groups will be quickly and quietly taken down.
A large part of the real power of the military has been shifted over to the Special Ops groups, and they will take down any ‘Woke’ factions of the military fast.
Right here.
She/he looks woke to me.
And she still won’t be a man.
Posted on The Liberty Daily a few minutes ago. Just one persons video but most likely represents the hopes of the new woke military.
If you’re even remotely small government, neither the military nor the boys in blue are your friends. They will turn on you when the time comes. Those that won’t will simply be fired or put on desk/potato peeling duty and replaced by a slobbering sycophant with an imaginary axe to grind that will.
Whether it’s team one or team two they are all corrupt to the core, irretrievably so.
I probably shouldn’t give voice to my feelings regarding these people who’re overthrowing our way of life.
And we’re not suppose to hate one another and its hard not hating with utter contempt.
It’s a good for them I don’t have the power of God; because I would remove all them every last one from the face of the earth, in an instant.
Yes, it’s difficult to confine oneself to hating the sin alone. I have to pray against hating the people.
It really is. I have struggled immensely in the last 10 years or so, as I have had the ugliness of humanity in my face so often it seems. I marvel, and am thankful, for Jesus Christ, who knew all of this ugliness, in them as well as me, and loved us anyway.
How about “Jacob have I love but Esau have I hated.” Romans 9:13
That was God Himself speaking.
That is essentially how it is going to happen. The timing, however, even Jesus Christ does not know but, the father only we are told. We are also told many will despair of his coming and say that the time is past. Until that time, man will have his agency and Lucifer will increase in power such that if it were possible even the very elect will be deceived. Life is a test. Everything is a test. That which doesn’t kill us gives us experience and knowledge. Since we are eternal beings like our father in heaven, death can only claim our mortal physical bodies and then only for a while. At least if you believe such things and in the bible. I, for one, know of a surety that God exists and that the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is not 42 because life is not a question in search of an answer or vice versa. To be a Christian, we must not hate them but, we can hate what they are doing and we can hate the results and methodology of our adversaries. To hate them personally precludes their chance to repent and this we must not do. Trust that there is ultimate justice because there is. Even atheistic film makers get it right sometimes. Hatred leads to the dark side.
WELL SAID yet so hard! We are called to pray and pray I will???
You can gaze out the window get mad and get madder,
Throw your hands in the air, say “What does it matter?”
But it don’t do no good to get angry,
So help me I know
For a heart stained in anger grows weak and grows bitter.
You become your own prisoner as you watch yourself sit there
Wrapped up in a trap of your very own
Chain of sorrow.
At this rate, and with destructive leadership since Clinton Administration our country is destined to be at the same level as the Latin American countries. I really don’t think there’s no turning back. The cultural rot at the top level of Federal, military and at many States has been around too long for things to change.
I believe the axiom that apples here is …..Cheaters Never Win and Winners Never Cheat.!
Meanwhile, and ODDLY ENOUGH, audits and exposés of the massive Nov.3 election fraud keep running into more and more and more delays, delays, delays, more delays, and even more delays.. ODDLY ENOUGH!
At least the Junta is keeping its eye on the only ball that counts (for their survival)…
I never believed the audits would see the light of day–still don’t. The entire Ruling Class simply cannot allow the election results to be challenged, or for results to be questioned, or for audits to prove what we all know happened.
Once that snakeball unravels, it brings the whole house of cards down. Just too much riding on keeping the lid on the election theft shut tight.
Once it unravels, no American will ever trust an election again – a sentiment that will completely shatter our confidence in our form of government – which will make the left deliriously happy. Every bad thing is a good thing in their eyes.
If it all comes out and we get a law created in each state requiring only paper ballots, voting on one day only between certain hours, and poll watchers etc, and maybe even the indelible ink purple thumb, we could feel assured again. Without that, I agree 100%.
Paper ballots and thumb inked. Especially in blue cities.
PLUS
Casino fraud tech – they are the experts on fraud.. big bucks demands it– both staffing and machinery doncha know.
Las Vegas saves us. I knew there must be something to come of that ‘industry’.
We can trust it again, but We the People must be a part of the counting process. The process itself must be easy to understand and have numerous checks and balances. Many eyes make fraud difficult.
ID checked, double blind hand counted paper ballots by Precinct (500-1000 voters). Two sets of Two people with as many observers you want could pull this off in about three hours.
No machines needed. Ideally all ballots are ‘also’ scanned along with their respective tally sheets for each batch of 50 ballots and placed on the web as public digital record. I’m sure some citizen programmers will find a way to count the images and confirm the tally sheets and thus the entire election independently of the process above.
Results by Precinct are published on the web when complete (ie no for warning of the ballot stuffing required by remain corrupt Precincts), with verification by everyone at the Precinct.
After that its just a simple summation from Precinct, City, County, State, Nation.
The process above will generally get rid of ‘election’ fraud. We will still need to work on ballot stuffing by the remaining corrupt Precinct’s.
If people analyze on a slightly deeper level the full gamut of issues affecting our political system, they will see that the issue of confidentiality and privacy has become the biggest refuge for today’s scoundrels. They will also see that the fanatical push for these laws was clearly undertaken for ulterior motives (Can anyone doubt that today?). Most of these enactments should really have been named, THE GOVERNMENT PROTECTION FROM SCRUTINY ACT.
They facilitate enormous chunks of surreptitious government activity, and, after all the hypocritical and holier-than-thou posturing that government officials engage in to justify their secrecy, these misnomer laws work wonderfully and dependably to shield from public scrutiny much of the mayhem and societal wreckage caused by government abuse.
For this reason, all considerations of citizen privacy regarding elections in present-day America strike me as being extraordinarily quaint, and frankly absurd. The powers- that- be can easily deduce, by means of party affiliation or past political contributions, subscriptions, club membership etc. exactly where everyone stands in regard to politics. So why does this privacy issue stand so completely in the way of attaining deeper transparency in our election process??
I have the distinct feeling that most people today would easily waive such rights in order to be able verify that their vote in favor of X, Y, or Z was indeed what was recorded and counted.
In my opinion, no voter transparency can be achieved without such a waiver, and I would insist on two separate receipts: one for the recorded vote, and one for the counted vote.
(cont.)
These receipts would be sent out automatically, just like a Post Office receipt stating that a parcel was in fact SENT and RECEIVED.
I would also recommend that these receipts indicate two separate tally numbers: one for the moment a vote was recorded, and one for the moment a vote was counted. Thus a voter would know that when recorded, his vote was the 3 millionth vote recorded, and the 4 millionth vote counted.
Of course, the more eyes on the process the better.
It’s simple, really. If We The People can’t audit it, you the politicians can’t certify it.
RAT thrive on evil … the party of death, dependency, deviancy and destruction.
The audits would only destroy the remaining integrity of the Rs. The Ds function in a dark cloud of dishonesty as an embraced tactic. The hypocritical Rs who played along will further the “Mike Pence” effect among the decent party voters. I want those audits too but am certain it will hurt us much more in the short term.
It is frustrating how it seems like no matter what happens, these scum bags always win.
I dont trust anything that our government has their fingerprints on anymore.
Including the vaccine!
This is exactly right. I, too, have never believed the audits will be fully complete nor made public. It would rock the foundations of the establishment (needed) but is not going to happen. I hope I’m wrong but I don’t think so.
I hope both of us are wrong.
I hope so too. If the fraud stands, the country is lost. And this part free, part police-state existence will have to fall completely in one direction or the other at some point. Right now it looks like it will fall toward totally communist.
But I will not give up hope. God gave me grandchildren.
20 years ago I had dinner with a woman from Russia. She said you Americans already list your country. You need to wake up!
It made me think how long the wheels have been set in motion. The destruction of America by America. Not a bullet fired.
I think they will continue to delay. They will probably issue some trumped up charges on the audit team. It doesn’t matter if anything sticks, they will stretch it out through court and possibly get a gag order so ‘discovery material’ (the audit) can’t be released.
Nevertheless, Maricopa County is still not giving up the machines and that is the Holy Grail for the audits.
All the audits do is help show the various mechanisms of fraud we need to solve. Plus they may give a backbone to the current fence sitting RINOs to do something that makes a difference, like getting rid of the vote flipping machines.
Any precinct, city, county or state that continues to use these vote flipping machines is guilty of election fraud.
We the People must never compromise on this.
While we won’t be able to force a paper only ballot process in all precincts, we should try to get as many of them as we can before 2022. The deeper red the district the more likely we will be successful.
I’m not aware of any law that ‘requires’ a precinct to use these machines? Though I wouldn’t be surprised if their is.
If so this is another legal target for us as well. Namely, allow each precinct to decide between the corrupt machines or an approved hand count process.
The ones that still use the machines will a be great place to do future audits. We just pick off these corrupt districts one by one.
Nothing will be done. No one will be brought to justice.
We still dont manufacture a damn mask or vital medications. We have learned nothing.
I hope you’re wrong too because the foundations of the establishment need to be blown up!!!
If by “foundations of government”; you mean the metastasized federal government AND it’s bloated bureaucracy, then yes, you are correct.
Just like every congressional investigation. Who has ever been brought to justice thru those shows of power with no bite.
Yes, I try to maintain a glimmer of hope regarding audits and the efforts of Mike Lindell and Sidney Powell, etc.
However, deep down I know it’s an exercise in futility.
There is nothing that will stop what’s taking place but an act of God.
And while I expect God to bless the efforts of good men as He’s demonstrated in the past.
God will bring His salvation in His own time using His own method.
Man cannot save himself, the institutional church under the miserable leadership of professional preachers are pathetic proven themselves incapable.
So it will be God using His strong right arm who will save His people.
Who might that strong right arm be ?
The willing, faithful hearted ones.
“The media get to pick and choose which faction they will support. CNN will support the State Dept. ABC, CBS, NBC will lean slightly toward the White House/Pentagon.”
Since I have not watched Fox since the election which villains are they stooges for?
They are controlled opposition. They keep battered conservatives stirred up enough to not be able to see that there is only one party in D.C.
And it gives the elitsts one more target to assign to the left for their hate.
I’ve read these were actually left behind in the Embassy. Same difference, though. Either way the Taliban acquired these names.
The “left behind” detail you read elsewhere about, is a convenient lie they put out after days of telling the public that Embassy staff are furiously shredding and destroying sensitive documents. Then it became to late to finish, and they had to scurry for their lives.
These documents were meant to be handed over in the same manner as US military equipment, arms, aircraft, and ammunition were handed over: They were left behind in the haste of fleeing.
I thought that was at the British Embassy where the lists were left on the floor?
Don’t forget about the meeting current CIA Director had with the Taliban chief. They weren’t sharing recipes.
I read that the USA literally gave the information to our buddy Taliban for checkpoints.
It was UK who left it behind in the Embassy or somewhere.
Yes. I also heard the general last night saying that the information was GIVEN to the taliban because they were “providing protection for Americans” — the very idea blew me away. That a general of the US mlitary would st there calmly and say that the TALIBAN is in charge of PROTECTNG AMERICA…..
…on the basis, it seems, that this group “helping” us is merely an “offshoot of the taliban that has even more extreme views of islam”—-WTF? Those people don’t even know that treaties with infidels are not worthy of consideration for these people That all the groups are under the umbrella of the brotherhood ? C’mon, even civilians know that you cannot enter into agreements with them!
The overall plan has gone badly wrong. Central to the plan was the expectation that Kamala Harris would be an acceptable replacement, and not only has she proved to be useless but she’s also lazy. It seems that she’s not co-operating with those who hoped to promote her.
Biden’s mental condition appears to have arrived at a plateau in his downward slide, but events overtake him and Jill lacks the capacity to counter those who now have a simple opportunity to sink the Biden ship.
So many lies have been told in an attempt to cover numerous stupid mistakes that will be exposed by the inevitable leaks springing as the Biden vessel goes down. Control of the media has become shaky, and the effect of the loss of American equipment is not yet realised. Horrible events are likely and they will influence the news cycle for months to come, and the people Biden has thrust forward to counter the bad news are less than adequate.
Biden’s statements are more than bothersome. He has no notion of how useless he is or how feeble he sounds. The world is starting to realise what many readers of the Treehouse have known for a long time. The Bidens thought that a departure from Afghanistan would compensate for inflation problems, for troubles with crimewaves, and for every screw-up of the past seven months – but things have suddenly become worse.
Sundance has depicted the opposing constructs of State Department and White House. The Pentagon has performed so poorly that it surely lacks stability – particularly in the circumstance of the ongoing Milley/Austin witch hunt for raging White Supremacists. The loss of personnel aggravates the problem, and Biden’s stated intention to keep Milley and Austin is unlikely to improve morale as the men line up for their mandated jabs.
It’s not impossible that something very unconstitutional is going to happen. It needs to happen.
Wow … this popped in my head. What if Kamala picks Jill Biden to be the VP? Ugh.
I mean, it doesn’t matter to the Deep State, as long as it has a pulse and is compliant.
I hope it is Hillary and I see Kamala running for her life!
Hillary would be close to perfect ops for the left – since they accuse the right of doing what
evil they themselves inflict on the rest of us – Their thoughts: President Trump stole the 2016 election from her and they are rightfully installing her as VP.
I know, nuts, right!
Kamala could then be Clintonized. Viola President Hillary.
If she picked Trump it would add years to her life expectancy.
The 25th Amendment states: “Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.”
It could be anybody: Hilary Clinton, Michelle Obama or any number of communist/totalitarians who are waiting in the wings to make their debut as the next premier.
She would have to pick someone even more stupid and corrupt than herself. (Can’t have someone smarter than her in the VP slot, just waiting for her to screw up.) How about AOC, or Ilhan Omar?
Don’t rule out Barrack himself. By now you know constitutional law isn’t a thing so nothing will stop it. The satanists would be thrilled.
His wife would have the same results.
He has no notion of how useless he is or how feeble he sounds.
That’s because he watches CNN.
After the horror of Afghanistan, I really wonder whether those in charge planned this in order to get rid of Biden. But I have no idea who they want to be ostensibly in charge. Kamala is so stupid and lazy that it’s hard to see how she can be the designated replacement. The cackle alone should disqualify her. But how do they get rid of her?
After reading Sundance’s background article. Look at the long term objectives of the fight for power between factions of the totalitarian government now ruling over the USA. 70-80% of America is caught in the middle.
Major factions of ruling regimes always fight over who is in charge and who is about to be appointed to the seat of power…in this case the Presidency…and how to proceed in 2022 as well as the desired outcome.
Keep in mind the democrats are in firm control over parts of the Executive Branch of Government (aka The Swamp) as well as parts of the Judiciary. The democrats also PHYSICALLY control the population centers and centers of gravity of the US Infrastructure. The democrats want to control it ALL. The Puppet Masters who control the State Department and INTEL want to operate from the shadows but they want to be the power behind the throne. The Puppet Masters seem to be poor students of history as they naively believed the democrat party was happy being their front and they never contemplated fascists, Marxists, Islamist’s, et al DO NOT LIKE to share anything.
Sock Puppet Joe is on his last legs and Kamala is about to be appointed the new Sock Puppet…Obama is quiet becuase he is caught in the middle as the instrument of control for both sides. He and his minions will remain quiet, awaiting orders.
The struggle is over whom will be the next VP. Kamala was never going to be the 2024 candidate and there is a struggle over 2022.
The democrats want the kill shot to take over the entire government, while the Puppet Masters are happiest with balance between Uni-Party wings that yields a “pen and cell phone” form of government.
You’re right. Marxists don’t like to share – not even with each other, whom they kill off. It’s a dangerous ally the Democrats have made. Kamala likely knows she’s stuck in a dangerous game.
Well at least both Deep State factions can agree on one thing – that we should all die. The rest is just semantics.
We not they. The important people left Afghanistan a long time ago.
I’m not buying this ‘it’s all about one side trying to shunt scrutiny onto the other’ argument, though the analysis of the two sides is valuable. More likely this is part of a general push of trying to demoralize the country to the point that they will begin to fight with each other paving the way for more lock-downs, mass detentions and, finally, some sort of Constitutional Reset into a Brave New Techno-Feudal world…
I’ve rethought my stance… I don’t think the powers that set all of this up are through with Joe by a long shot. All he has to do is keep shuffling to and from the podium, read the notes/teleprompter, and don’t stop breathing. They’ll keep cooking up the messes and let the Resident take the pie in the face.
The narrative continues, their patsy takes the public blame, America continues to rot from the inside out.
Folks on our side have been demoralized since the Stolen Election if not before… there are still plenty of Americans that need some work.
I’m of a similar mind. If the Powers That Be wanted him out they’d give the GOP orders to go for the throat. The fact that all the bigwig Republicans are pretty quite offering only the most mild of talking points regarding all of this is the loudest signal in the room that nobody seems to really be talking about.
I would add that the State Department is also key in laundering foreign aid and the like into the pockets of our corrupt ‘representatives’. Once this currency is outside the US the ability to for the US banking system and IRS to track what is going on is limited.
This is one of the the primary mechanisms that gives the IC control over a great number of corrupt ‘representatives’ and various executives within the government.
I think Deep State leveraged the Panama Papers’ and Paradise Papers’ hacks to consolidate power. The intel shut down a lot of tyrants of third world countries – former and current. Known criminal U.S. figures were mysteriously absent from much of the aftermath. The Deep State will use those as tools until their edge is blunt and they are discarded.
I think the Panama Papers put the IC stooges on notice that they will be thrown to equally corrupt FBI/DOJ/DC Judges if they get out of line.
Once someone in the government takes this Satanic bargain they are generally trapped into the system of control. At which point they tend to keep doubling down on the corruption.
The image that everyone needs to have about Uniparty and the various agencies in DC is one of various Mobs both competing and cooperating for a cut of the criminal cash flow (drugs, arms, human exploitation). Only instead of a city its a country, and even to some extent the world.
Hmm, I just realized that for as impenetrable as our govt seems, it has one key vulnerability: division within. Its ironic because causing division within the populace is how it gets its power over us in the first place.
If there is any solution to reigning in the govt it likely will have something to do with its own power turning against itself from within.
Isn’t slavery the most profitable enterprise? The hostage ransom money will be divided up as promised by many of those swamp monsters. It’s that ugly..
Seems to me…
The CIA keeps the conflicts and wars on the ground in countries moving, but the DoD buys from the Defense Contractors so DoD funds the wars… so it would seem CIA is the Defense Contractors best friend, not as much DoD.
Seems to me in this Situation in Afghanistan is all about CIA re-upping the stakes, to force USA back in there in a bigger way… not that much money in just 2500 troops there…
Surrendering Bagram AFB was the key decision that cratered everything there. It would be fascinating to see what advisors pushed that decision.
Yah, basically military fights the wars and under “normal” conditions, ends the wars and with it the spending. We haven’t really had a normal war since WWII. Trump turned ending ISIS into a normal war, and it was ended. Taking out Taliban in Afghanistan should have been the same as taking out ISIS, a one year deal, not 20. The CIA stokes the fires and keeps them burning through “intel”, to likely both sides… and CIA has boots on the ground too; they aren’t just “spies”. And few know who the CIA guys actually are… and their direction comes from on high to individuals, not so much organized like military with large numbers, admin and chain of command stuff.
If we turned Afghanistan into a normal war; we could end it in less than a year.
These evil people, although possessed of a comprehensive withdrawal strategy that would have left the enemy with nothing, instead PURPOSELY betrayed thousands of citizens into the hands of their enemies, and to give them billions of dollars’ worth of “aid and comfort.”
This is: TREASON. By the Constitution’s own definition.
Committed AGAINST our nation and its government, BY highest-ranking officers FROM WITHIN it. “The enemy is right here, using our own powers against us all.
NOW do you see the bloody cost of election fraud?? ?
Agree Mike. It all goes back to election fraud at all levels. This is how all of these America hating leftists come to power and progress. Real cockroaches like AOC, Talib, Omar, Romney, Warner, Burr, etc. Once Biden went off script and promised he’d only appoint a woman of color, and it would likely be Kamala Harris, as unlikeable a creature as one can get, they (Uniparty) made up their minds to go all out fraud. They learned a hard lesson about unlikeability from Hillary. Enter the basement Joe strategy, it no longer mattered that the Biden / Harris ticket couldn’t draw flies to shit when it came to campaigning. The plan was already in motion.
Even when the next 9-11 occurs, the virtue-seeking dims I know will buy every word CNN puts out about how it was all Trump’s fault. It is impossible to get through to them, because it is impossible to get them to even read, listen, or consider they might be wrong.
All this is just becoming annoying now. We all know they are just a cluster of bumbling fools, haven’t got a clue, being supposedly led by a person who clearly isn’t capable. America and the world are going down the drain, people are scared witless over a flu virus with a 99% recovery rate, being forced to take a dangerous vaccine. People are dying unnecessarily and it’s all being allowed to happen. We are told nearly 100 million people voted for Trump and a large number of people who voted for the pretend President are now sorry they did. The people standing in the way are the corrupt media. If all those millions get off their backsides and shut down the media, things would change overnight. If only it could happen.
Gotta wonder how CIA/State giving a list to the Taliban will play with the international stakeholders listed.
If the list does become a kill list, or more bad things follow from it, even State/CIA will have a really hard time maintaining any credibility.
Sorry NGO team, we gave your peoples names to the Taliban who said they would protect you, its not our fault the Taliban is on a spectrum with Islamic extremist murderers and now all your sons and daughters are captured in a cave and held for ransom.
I totally understand the possible schemes here, but this is not just a little corrupt scheme in DC. This could be the start of WW3 and the collapse of US hegemony.
Even the swampiest UN-oriented deep staters will have a hard time pulling this off.
Why didn’t they just give them a menu?
as in “it’s a cookbook”? Yeah…
Let’s see, audits were supposed to be released this week. And the topic no one is talking about right now is Babbit’s shooter being interviewed by NBC and revealing his identity.
When you realize the Machiavellian’s are willing to kill anyone to stay in power, it all makes sense.
The blatant justification for shooting was “she breached the sanctum sanctorum and she woulda/coulda/shoulda had bomb or weapon! I did my job and stopped the threat!” And leftarded pundits continue to spew how this is different from policemen shooting unarmed Blacks–or Blacks with replica toy handguns–or Blacks holding cell phones–or Blacks reaching into their car for a knife after resisting with violence. . . . But Black officer man is a HERO for shooting a little gal that wouldn’t come up to my arm pits and who weighed two sacks of horse feed which I can toss over a shoulder. This is stupidity and racism–the real “institutional racism” they talk about. And, it’s sexism. Misogyny and racism at its finest. Hey, Demonrats, you has met the enemy and he is you!
Discrimination. Shoot Ashli but don’t fire at anyone else. Why not ? Were the other people by Ashli agitators ? Why was he operating alone ? Did any other capitol police have their weapons drawn ?
This is eerily similar to when Barry’s administration had undercover assets discovered and executed by the Chinese.
Accidentally of course.
Wouldn’t want anyone to get in the way of DC/CCP communications.
UK and Russia Tipped Off US on Kabul Attacks After Biden Trusted Taliban for ALL SECURITY — Terrorists Already Demanding Ransom for Stranded Americans (Found on Gateway Pundit)
Get rid of the Secret Service protection details. Let Bidung use the Taliban he is importing.
Great article!
“The picture has now emerged of their plan to blame the White House, and by extension Joe Biden along with the Pentagon.”
Yes! With that realization, the key now is to avoid falling into the briar patch that the deep state has constructed.
Blaming the pitiful bumbler in the Oval Office is exactly what the deep state wants you/us to do.
Meanwhile, the vile lash-up of PC-Progs and neocons (we first saw this coalition form as Obama’s handlers set up the operations to simultaneously take out Kaddafy in Libya, and arm/train/fund ISIS-like elements to overthrow Syria’s government) whip up each of their American factions to continue to support forever wars in the Middle East, with no American interests at stake.
Trump planned the withdrawal. Biden carried it out. Whoever would have been in charge at the implementation of the withdrawal, there would have been complications, deaths, attacks, chaos. That’s all thanks to the deep state, as you detail here. We should NOT let the deep state’s overall strategic goals (War! War! War! Forever!) be strengthened due to the chaos, even though that chaos included American boys dying.
Biden did not carry out Trumps planned withdrawal.
Thanks. Not even close. Just a few days after the Trump agreement with the taliban, they went ahead with attacks anyway, and he bombed them, to show he took it seriously, whether they did or not. It’s not even close to true to say Trump planned it and biden carried it out. Two different plans, one conditional and proven serious when conditions were not met.
On that subject, Gateway Pundit is rampant with trolls getting people there to spend their time defending Trump against their attacks, whenever a piece exposing biden shows up….God forbid people should actually discuss biden at a time like this, I guess.
Again, the point is NOT to “defend Biden.” It’s to help Normal Americans understand that the miscreants in this entire 20 year fiasco are NOT “Biden” or “Trump.”
The wrong-doers, fools, charlatans, fakes and frauds are the Deep State permanent bureaucrats!
Normals quibbling about “Trump” said this, or did that; or “Biden” did so and so is the deep state’s goal. Get Normals to ignore the actual bureaucratic failure of the entire 20 year invasion and occupation in Afghanistan has been–right up to the final weeks–and get people to prattle on about “Biden” did it, or “Trump” would have….
All distractions from the utter bankruptcy of the neocon/PC-Prog war forever subversion of American blood and treasure for the interests of their hostile foreign sponsors.
One might say that CNN is an arm of the CIA.
After all, John Brennan works there.
(This entire foreign policy debacle in all countries has everything with him pulling the strings for Obama)
Why did we give them weapons , what was the point? Is Biden linked to them? Why would we not have destroyed them? DC is a Cuckoos Nest. It is time for term limits.
China wanted us out of Bagram as it is within 400 miles of China and to feel pain and be embarrassed in doing so. China also wants to be in Afghanistan and therefore wanted our weapons in the hands of their ally, the Taliban. China gave Biden his orders and he complied.
it certainly fits with the KISS principle!
The only way to stave off the eventual break up of the Republic into two or more countries is to break up the power in DC and return all of it to the States: Physically. Relocate all departments into 50 sections based on population and position it in the capitals of those states. Forcing Congress to locate in their districts except for the State of the Union Address (symbolically) once a year. Voting by members can be remotely done and all of the congressmen can be held accountable 100% of the time by their constituents locally. It might change things for Lindsey Graham if he were in Columbia casting votes.
If there isn’t a break up of the beltway’s power structure the country will not continue on as we know it. It can’t.
It won’t.
How it looks to me.
Well, someone told the U.S. Military in Afghanistan not to bomb or destroy the Poppy Fields. So, let’s check the facts. Up until 2016 Obama ordered that the poppy fields be protected. After this, President Trump’s Airstrikes Destroy Acres of Poppy Fields, Ends Afghanistan’s Opium Trade.
We also know, that the Afghanistan poppy fields represented 90% of the world opium production and that the CIA benefited from it. And, that it is likely that our own State Department is routing some of this drug money to politicians.
If the Military were to leave, then who would benefit. The drug runners and the politicians?

Who is left to protect the Poppy Fields, the CIA and Biden.
Why Don’t We Bomb Afghanistan’s Poppy Fields?
Might it help fight the heroin crisis in the U.S.?
by Cecil Adams October 5th, 2016
Obama ended the Bush crop-eradication plan in ’09. “The poppy farmer is not our enemy,” declared special representative Richard Holbrooke, “the Taliban are.” Economic stability in Afghanistan, the current reasoning goes, is more important than stemming the heroin tide. Counternarcotics efforts have continued, but U.S. soldiers aren’t even allowed to trespass in poppy fields nowadays. Eradication is left to the Afghans, who collect $250 from the U.S. per hectare knocked out—though corruption has led to selective enforcement, with farmers who cozy up to local officials keeping their fields in flower.

I’ve heard folks talking about mineral rights but those poppy fields are probably worth more.
Why do I feel like we’re barreling back to streamed beheadings and subsequent military action in the region? The CIA and Military Industrial Complex must be giddy with anticipation.
The Middle East went from fairly quiet to dumpster fire in record time… they’ve taken an axe to every good thing our President was able to accomplish.
Fentanyl is synthetic and more concentrated. The CCP has a lot of manufacturing capacity and a working relationship with the Mexican cartels.
Right now, the Taliban can swap sophisticated weaponry to Iran for petroleum products in return. It sounds like a number of people are flowing out of Afghanistan and through Iran on their way west. The mullahs probably are asking for something in return for that right of passage alone. This is an opportunity for Iran to equip and supply Hezbollah with more firepower to use against Israel. Oddly, that would be a matter of taking the Big Satan’s weapons and positioning them across the border in Lebanon to fire at the Little Satan.
Where is John Kerry? Might he be using his relationship with his daughter’s father-in-law during this time?
So, no matter which team wins, we lose.
No faith left in the so-called “government”.
My only faith is in the people themselves.
Some day this “government” will be overthrown and we’ll start all over again.
I hope someone keeps a copy of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
The survivors will need them to help rebuild the country.
Brilliant analysis. DoS CIA CYA CNN in action.
Active duty Marine Lt. Col calls for senior military leaders to be held accountable.

Col. Scheller was relieved for cause.
https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2021/08/an-update-on-col-scheller.php
A poster on FoxNews said the following which I agree with (except of course, the former Marine part):
2 hours ago
Give him credit, he put it all on the line for the American public and every member of the military. As a former Marine, I know there will be swift and severe consequences for going public. Sometimes you have to stand up and risk it all. I salute you for saying what needs to be said and the willingness to accept the consequences. Thank you for your service and all that you have done.
I think this is good analysis. Deeper than what other outlets have offered. The infighting reminds me of accounts of NAZI Germany.
Pompeo: Trump’s Afghanistan withdrawal was not like this
Sean Hannity emphatically repeated in last night’s show that the CIA pulled its people out months ago and warned the WH repeatedly so we know who the CIA has on its leash.
BELIEVE NOT:
Our govt
Our White House
Our so-called president, Biden/Harris combo
Our Congress
Our Generals
Our DOD
Our CIA
Our State Dept
Note, I say OUR, b/c it is OUR.
The FOUNDERS said it was OURS and placed a Constitution in-place to always REMIND US, GUIDE US and PROECT US, that it is OUR COUNTRY and OUR GOVT.
The entire totality of all the assets GIVEN to the Taliban in Aghan was OURS, paid from OUR tax $$.
The Embassy, MOST expensive owned by the USA was funded by WE THE TAXPAYER.
DO NOT comply any longer.
DO NOT LISTEN nor take orders.
OUR GOVT is corrupt, it is deceptive, it is false, it is crooked, it no longer serves us, we the people.
IT IS TIME my fellow patriots, we MUST with sound common sense and with tactical and smart decision-making, take back our country. VOTE EVERY CONGRESSMAN OUT…We’ve bee in Afghan 20Y and THEY HAVE (90% or more) been in Congress 20Y….THEY are the problem.
THEY ALL HAVE BLOOD on their greedy, dollar-soaked hands. THEY have allowed us to be destroyed and DID NOTHING….NOTHING…the entire lot of them.
Go to Richard Grenell’s twitter acct. He just posted a video showing the USA left pallets of cash….pallets and pallets of weapons…….sound familiar??? Here we go again. @RichardGrenell . Who knows the amt but $millions……
How much treason must an illegitimate junta commit to be labeled what they are: traitors?
We are more than a tolerant people, we are sheep. All outrage has been beaten out of us by years of Leftist attacks. People no longer get outraged. We are being run by a cabal of Marxist traitors who are aligned with all our country’s enemies. They armed the Taliban on purpose. That is by any definition aiding and abetting the enemy. Now we learn they gave them a list to facilitate rounding up Americans. Please, don’t tell me that is naivite. That is malicious intent.
They hate America and everything it stands for. Their actions speak louder than their hollow, deceptive words. They are domestic enemies and they are in countrol of our Nation.
God save us all.
The Obama administration allowed into government agencies Islamic groups and activists tied to the Muslim Brotherhood who now influence U.S. anti-terrorism policies and endanger the nation
Looks like the Trojan Horse has out lived his usefulness. Obama’s henchmen are out in full force. Release the payload – Kabala!
“This Afghan government was going to collapse rapidly because of the way in which we got out,” Obama Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said in a CBS interview highlighted in the video.
“I think of John Kennedy and the Bay of Pigs,” Obama-era CIA director Leon Panetta said in a CNN interview. “It unfolded quickly, and the president thought everything would be fine and that was not the case.”
Obama’s Afghanistan Ambassador Ryan Crocker remarked the botched withdrawal has “created a global crisis,” while Obama’s senior adviser David Axelrod called the pullout a “disaster” and said the execution was indefensible.
The ad also highlighted comparisons by former CIA director John Brennan and other high-ranking Obama officials of the fall of Afghanistan to the Dunkirk evacuation and the fall of Saigon.

Is it just me or are pictures of mask wearers in the background similar to terrorists posing with the spokesman?
I read on TGP today that in times of foreign countries having turmoil, the State Dept’s role is to set up process for Americans to contact them, their locations and passprt info recorded so we can get them out.
The State dept has made zero effort to do this. Meanwhile in a few days the Taliban’s deadline will soon be here. They could claim 20,000 hostages and we would have no idea.
Watch the a-hole White House occupant turn over billions and get nothing back.
The incompetence is endless. We must all protest this guy and denand resignation.
After a thorough investigation by Con-gress into the “kill list” provided by the Biden vaudeville troupe, Pelosi has determined President Trump is to blame. She announced her decision to file impeachment proceedings immediately…
Yesterday morning Eric Prince told us, before this “news” was announced, that what happened was that all Embassy/DoS personnel files were left on the Embassy’s DoS computers, complete with biometrics, when the Embassy staff left the Embassy. This was on Bannon’s show.
Long-time war correspondent Michael Yon told us the identical story this afternoon, again on Bannon’s show.
Personnally, I believe Prince and Yon.
No doubt the intention was the same in both stories – get the info to the terrorists.
It is the amount of information that marks the difference between the two stories. The Prince/Yon version has all the personnel info given to the terrorists.
Thank goodness we still have a few non-gubmint people who will tell us the truth.
It all boils down to this. What are you prepared to do about it? What are you willing to risk? At what point do you say this ends now? How bad does this have to get before you act on your beliefs? When the Retired American Generals we know are with us ask, we will follow and do our sworn duty. Were the old guys. God Bless America
Anybody else find it creepy and utterly unnecessary (well, perhaps) that Xiden’s always got a bunch of his “people” around him, saying nothing but wearing stupid masks… Kinda like it’s all a big pantomime. Hell, perhaps it really is.
