Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Joint Chief’s Chairman Mark Milley held a Pentagon press briefing today about the unfolding crisis in Afghanistan. [Full Presser Here] As the Taliban has taken full control over the country and capital, the U.S. presence in Kabul has been reduced to securing the airport as a temporary fortress, and telling U.S. citizens to try and get there.
When asked about the Taliban surrounding the airport, constructing checkpoints and the inability of Americans to reach safety for evacuation, Defense Secretary Austin said the military “don’t have the capability to…extend operations.” The follow-up question was then about the U.S. essentially having to negotiate safe-passage with the Taliban… and rather than say, “Yes, that is accurate“, the question left Secretary Austin speechless. WATCH:
.
Ooof… THAT, my friends, is exactly what FUBAR looks like!
maybe he (Sec. Austin) did not think he was conveying FUBAR
but rather that he was emanating the seriousness of someone supremely in control of the situation
“Why are you asking me (ME!) a stupid and impertinent question, seriously? Do you want to re-think and re-phrase your stupid question . . . of course, withdrawing the question entirely would be the best thing for you . . . I am waiting, waiting . . . to give YOU the opportunity to retract that question.”
He and Milley should be looking for job right now but the knives seem to be out for Biden after this blunder. It’s so bad even the UK is questioning ever trusting the US again. Biden has always been a stupid man and wrong about everything but hes always had the cover of the senate, a compliant media and the shadow of Onama to cover for him. But the idiot wanted to bask in the glory on his own and now the whole world sees the fool we knew him to be Austin and Milley are fools too but right now they serve a purpose for the Obama crew running the show. And Kammy is off to Vietnam to tell Asia the US has got your back. The jokes are writing themselves.
you CERTAINLY find UK personnel and government COMPLICITY in the 5 years of never-ending attacks on PDJT in an effort to remove or at least hamstring him…I would not be surprised to find UK involvement in the DOMINION and DS theft of the 2020 election either
Might have THOUGHT that he wasn’t “conveying FUBAR”.
But FUBAR it was.
Problem is that with THIS administration FUBAR is also SNAFU.
We would be surprised if ANYTHING they do works out.
Remember when Trump was President and we all slept good at night because everything was under control?
Even though the Fake News constantly made up stories that the WH was in disarray. Remember that the left is always accusing you of what they are.
Yup. I always say, if you move 180 degrees from what they say, there you will find the truth.
This is the beginning of the hardest fall in history. If the British empire collapse looked bad, wait until you see this.
The only good news is that it will lead to a new union, minus hellholes like California.
Gee thanks.
LOL
Yes, I was just thinking the same, and that I don’t feel safe at all with these bozos in charge. All of this, including the above that Sundance pointed out in the video concludes it is much worse, they really don’t know what they’re doing at all. Blooming idiots, all of them, including the State Dept guy who conveyed to the Taliban they needed to have an inclusive government. They really are plain stupid.
Problem was, we had just gotten OVER bad leadership (Obama and his absolute failed foreign policies).
And were just getting used to having good leadership.
And now…it’s WORSE than Obama.
It’s like if Obama had dementia, bad leadership.
Yep, that and I wanted to visit the Holy Land during his 2nd term. Staying put.
It’s one thing to send athletes that hate our country to the Olympics but to put them in charge of our military is suicidal.
Anarchism and nihilism is now mainstream leftism. Mainstream.
Megan Rapinoe, the scumbag soccer player, has been hired to represent a long list of companies, including Subway sandwiches and Victoria’s Secret underwear. How exactly a homely lesbian will sell underpants to heterosexuals only a nihilist could understand.
All the companies that signed the purple headed militant anti-American did so as “virtue signaling” to “go woke” and embrace the LGBTQ+ crowd.
Now that her true colors have been put on display, on the world stage, in front of allies and enemies, and she has become the spokesperson for American-hatred….those companies are having SERIOUS “buyer’s remorse”. Subway franchisees are pressuring the company to “ditch the bitch”.
We keep saying it, and they keep proving us right:
Go woke, go broke.
May all the companies that embrace and promote LGBTQ+, Antifa, BLM, CRT, Marxism, abortion, etc. go so broke they go out of business. And may all those small companies that the left hates because they stand up for what’s good, and what’s right, grow without bounds in what will soon be a WIDE OPEN field…
They’re too busy trying to break down people within the US to notice.
Woke is weak.

Did Austin invent incompetence or did he just perfect it?
Colin Powell did it better…
They are all puppets.
Well when Powell did a press conference he was prepared. Austin should have known that question would come up and was caught flat footed.
Join the dots. Why would they want Afghanistan back in the hands on the Taliban?
Assume the worst.
Have to admit you got that right.
ahh..Colin Powell…the “Republican” who would do everything a Dimm would do…fake person like all American traitors
He diversitied 10K Americans into the mercy of the Taliban. Stop questioning his brilliance.
You got to make it personal with these people. Then things get done. ?
President Trump said he made clear in negotiations there would be consequences if Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, the Taliban’s political chief, failed to stick to the terms of their deal.
‘We had a very strong conversation,’ he said.
‘I told them upfront, I said: ‘Look, before we start, let me just tell you right now that if anything bad happens to Americans or anybody else, or if you ever come over to our land, we will hit you with a force that no country has ever been hit with before, a force so great that you won’t even believe it, and your village, and we know where it is – and I named it – will be the first one.’
You got to make it personal with these people.
You mean these communists?
The same man Milley was preparing to use the armed forces against under the belief he was going to subvert the election and attempt to stay in office. And now Milley is part of the crew responsible for one of the USs most degrading humiliations and he and Austin puff their chest and scowl at the cameras like we cant see their incompetence. And like all shameless curs they sharpen the knives for idiot Bidens back. Trump has stones like cantaloupes compared to this offal.
the same MILLEY who was in open mutiny by REFUSING to follow the orders of his duly elected CIC…what a tool
And a VERY important point:
When DJT said those things…they KNEW he meant those things.
And they weren’t willing to test it.
Unlike with Obama who drew and moved ,and drew and moved, and drew and moved (ad nauseam) that “red line” which never meant a thing.
yes and no.
the radical extreme Islam of which Taliban has it’s own twisted death cult version, doesn’t care about such things…at all.
the only reason they perform pauses in combat or defense is because they place a high value in the continuance of maximum long term destruction.
it’s a difference most western (especially non islamist, and Christians, and Jews, AND ATHEISTS simply do not understand)
we do not live in their worlds…their prayers, songs, social totems are so distorted from our norms we cannot even come close to understanding the real danger they present.
their Koran heroes are all martyrs…but also long game conquerors…
I believe the ancient word translates into something like
beserker.
when you challenge a devout radical extreme islamists, it triggers a very fundamental mechanism meshed at every level from birth to death.
they literally believe people like you and I and the rest of the world are acting on behalf of Satan!!!
these people and their long custom and heritage of observing strict Islam are not afraid if death.
they are afraid that they will not do enough killing before their time is up.
that’s it in a nutshell.
and they aren’t idle ..they provoke violence…they chose death because they believe this is the pure AND ONLY form of true obedience to their false God.
it comes with all the other perversion too… like raping young boys and girls…forcing women into shame…denying education..even the basics..crafting a society that serves only one purpose…to aid and expand a death cult army.
and we just let that happen…we left them with thousands of victims…heavy weapons…and some strong words..
they aren’t fighting our troops right now because they have great experience humiliating invaders and enemies… they are patient ONLY in order to exert a focused maximum carnage that will allow the long jihad to continue…
we will have our fight with Taliban…it’s a given…they will bring it into us. and they will do it with a dimension we cannot understand.
but for those that are WITH GOD…the one and only true GOD…we understand this satanic influence.
we know our history…we are unafraid and we are prepared.
getting this intelligence into the lead headed fat bellied brains within the military leadership has proven our military is I’ll equipped emotionally, spiritually, politically, to destroy this enemy..
in so many ways, this corrupt military leadership has only caused the wrong policies to be funded…
Milley and Austin will blame “white rage”, and domestic violent extremism as the reasons for the DoD’s ineptitude. Despicable, I hope they smoke a turd in Hades
Which turd? Do you mean John McCain?
They’ll get theirs. All evil will.
You know that’s how I was raised…..My Mom used to tell me “they will all get theirs, but we may never know about it, but they will all have to pay in the end.” All I can do now is hope she was right. She was so right about so many things, one of the most intelligent people I ever knew…..upsets me that the intelligence missed me….
If you’re saved (in Heaven with Christ) you will have a front row seat.
“… do you not know that the saints will judge the world?” 1 Corinthians 6:2.
well it is an excuse in their mind…its importance locked their focus away from what should have had all their energy…white rage DID cause this /s
That my fellow Deplorables is the Joe Biden look aptly displayed by Lloyd Austin.

”Defense” Secretary Lloyd Austin
Who is he defending?
He’s still trying to figure it out, but he knows it’s not America.
Hidin biden.
The Taliban, of course.
After he’s forced out, he will cry racism. I guarantee it.
Shocker! The Taliban isn’t keeping their commitments. And here we thought they were such a friendly lot. I mean the CNN “journalist” in the almost-a-burqa told us so just the other day.
Everyone at the State Dept should be pushed in a hole and covered with a D12. Human garbage.
You should have stuck to the May deadline AS AGREED.
Biden broke the agreement. Biden violated our commitments.
And the Afghan “President ” went on the lam with 169million. He knew the score?
that was likely the pay for his troops that he was not forwarding…reports say it has been MONTHS since they were paid
https://www.dailywire.com/news/that-was-their-choice-biden-natsec-advisor-victim-blames-americans-trapped-in-afghanistan-following-taliban-blitz
Biden: “we followed Trump’s withdrawal plan. it’s his fault” Dishonesty at its purist.
China wont attack us until tomorrow now, they’ve just announced a 24 hour military moratorium, in order that their generals and soldiers have time enough to get over the gut splitting laughter at their hapless, and leaderless enemy. The moratorium will likely be extended. Updates to follow…….
He’s trying to come up with his preferred pronouns.
HaHaHaHa HaHaHaHa !! Fu***ng priceless Gut-Ree!!
Austin& Milley should be removed! Two incompetent dolts. The best of our military/sarc
Common misconception is that the biden admin are idiots. They are actually intelligent people who are evil, compromised and corrupt. everything they do is not remotely in Americas best interests.
Pure unadulterated evil
I think they are both. Conniving and stupid. Really, really stupid.
Biden intelligent? Give me a break
but, but, but, they are the best ‘O’ could leave us with after pushing the other “good ones” into leaving or retiring early’ —-aren’t they?
Keep this in mind. Austin and Miley prepared for the news conference. They studied the topic ahead of time. They still don’t know what they are doing.
All top brass should face courts-martial for this debacle.
Benedict Arnold tried to turn over a fort to the enemy and became synonymous with traitor.
Biden has turned over an entire country with our personnel still in it.
This is more frightening than incompetence, they fundamentally hate our country.
“Doesn’t have capability…” could actually mean “we’ve been ORDERED not to”, which will have millions of us on The National Mall in DC wanting to participate in a “hearing” with this political garbage. OF COURSE, the Capitol Police will be invited and what few vets are in DC.
Useless
This is going to be a massacre of epic proportions if the US and its Euro allies don’t do something.
There will be blood flowing in the streets, yet WHERE ARE THE REPUBICAN CONGRESSMEN AND WOMEN??
Why is our PRESIDENT TRUMP the only person speaking out forcefully and correctly about this disaster?
Not only is this a total disgrace for the Bidenistas- it is a DISGRACE for THE ENTIRE GOP FAKE LEADERSHIP.
They should all rot in hell.
I have truly never seen anything as despicable as this bunch of ass clowns.
Everyone is distancing themselves and pretending all is fine until this blows over and fake news move on and we all forget about.
It’s how they manage their disasters.
Let the beheading videos begin, and of course Twitter and FB will gleefully go along. There’s no news like new news!

The Taliban was taking over Afghanistan while General Milley was learning about white rage. ?♂️
More hiJABS, racist remarks, and succumbing to the learned PROPaganda we pass to you. That will fix this.
Why is this progressive (lazy communist) not wearing his multiple masks while indoors ?
He should be brought up in a C17 and dropped via parachute into the airport in Afghanistan and see what kind of leader he is.
I understand. It’s tough. As long as we’re protecting the Capitol from senior citizens in Trump hats, guess we can’t complain.
While Austin was preparing his jab policy, the Taliban were bum rushing Kabul. Austin totally botched the response by removing focus on the #1 problem, Afghanistan and instead attempting to ramrod flu shots.
The incompetence is unparalleled.
Republicans need to not overplay the hand dealt to them with this Biden Blunder. It’s a Royal Flush.
Last night, a Republican won a long held Democratic Party seat in Connecticut .
Connecticut!
If journalists ask all Republican candidates “do they think there was election fraud” the answer is easy.
“74 million Trump voters think so. Let’s get this right an count all the ballots again.”
The number may well be close to EIGHTY MILLION.
Notice nobody is talking about election fraud and that this situation will continue for the next several weeks as AZ unveils evidence of the Steal? This is what they want.
Miss Lindsey will send another ‘strongly worded’ letter. The same as always.
Re Ct sorry , you are wrong , wrong – – it was a long held republican area Fairfield county – Greenwich , north Stamford republican held minor state senate seat till 2018 – ( 2 year term ) – when flipped by Dem woman who was reelcted in 2020 by less than 3% ( 51/48.6) out of total votes of 57,000 . She resigned ( getting divorced) special election held and young guy who lost in 2020 flipped it back on same percentages his way on only a 17,000 vote total . Just so happened few more Rep . Bothered to vote than Dems on this race . Don’t get excited Ct is blue as ever , just that the Dems save their Ct turnout tricks for Presidential , Senate and Governor races where they really matter . Sorry but those are the facts in Ct .
And remember 2020 Biden won Ct by 20 points
over 70% of GOP voters and 25% of Dimms think there was significant amounts of fraud in the last election…I think Independents is like 54% to go along with those numbers…even the MSM is reporting 48% which we know is a low number
Well Lloyd. That’s why you get all Americans out before you withdraw the troops.
You screwed up. Or did someone take a bribe from the Taliban to do it Bass Ackwards?
You are witnessing a carefully orchaestrated event by the Installed President that America is no longer a Shining Light for other countries seeking freedom. (Globalism is here and America has fallen)
Perfectly executed, so that no person will ever trust this country again on the world stage.
Bravo – these globalist did it. If we don’t fix the 2020 election this entire world is over.
(This wasn’t an accident, or caught off guard. This was public demonstration of America being placed back into the Global Union)
These pipelines will not be halted by an American president or an American people. With lawfare, they know they can steal your country and leave you in legal courts for years – ‘internet search = Carter Page, “Stateless”, 7th Court Perkins China’
ISIS 2.0 will get Syria this time. Keep an eye on Russia to see if they can block the pipeline again.
(top left corner the goal pipeline to EU via Iran; the rest to China – this was checkmated with Gilgit, see its election recently for fun….)
Agree this was a planned failure.
Unfit for command.
Fire him! Keep firing these jerks till we reach a level of competence. It’s the only way the corruptocrats learn anything.

WASTE: US Spent $1.5 Billion Dollars On Kabul Embassy Construction Before Taliban Takeover – National File
The US spent over $1.5 billion dollars on construction for the US embassy in Kabul before the Taliban took over Afghanistan.
https://nationalfile.com/waste-us-spent-1-5-billion-dollars-on-kabul-embassy-construction-before-taliban-takeover/
It rhymes with Rigor Mortis
Diversity is a weakness.
If this happened under President Trump, I’m pretty confident he would inform the Taliban leaders that he holds them accountable for the safety of our people and if even one American is harmed the US will be back in force to hang them all.
The Taliban would provide concierge service to all Americans to get them to the airport safely.
And it would not be grandstanding, would not be idle threats. As a matter of fact, our President would already have the plan in place, plus exigency plans. Would not be at all surprised if he already does.
he already DID…Slo Joe canceled it
Either they’re trying to get rid of Biden or they just don’t care about optics anymore. They aren’t even trying to cover for this.
The short version: “Cornpop is dead and the Taliban is alive.”
The Big Ugandan couldn’t answer the question – that it would require diplomacy with the Taliban to create a safe corridor for Americans to get to Kabul airport. So Milley tried to bail him out and failed. What a couple of oversized buffoons. Both of these clowns are emblematic of the malfunctioning Biden regime. Let’s face it, there is no contingency plan to get these Americans out, right? Lambs for the slaughter? These treacherous government leeches will pay dearly for their lack of foresight and indecision because of their first priority to grovel at the foot of Joe Buydone.
The Democrats are clever but very cynical. The often put a minority out front to soften the criticism when things go south on them. Like Hillary with her water Buffalo buddy. Or the folks in Atlanta and Philadelphia who fed fake ballots into the machines after midnight. Like barry the bastard who was idolized and was above Any criticism because of his pigmentation. They use our own moral code to beat us over the head with a constant chorus of Racist! And it works very effectively.
result of affirmative action
On Gab:

Biden did this to celebrate on September 11th when in actuality the celebration is our enemies and the fact that we already have the Taliban flag flying over our Obama-Biden built $1 Billion U.S. Embassy in Kabul.
The message this debacle sends to America’s enemies is quite clear. This completely avoidable cataclysmic event will reenergized the call for worldwide jihad. They believe they have us on the ropes. The mullahs scheme with the aid and comfort provided by domestic traitorous complicit “leaders” here at home to bring us down. Barry is succeeding as American sheep in their fear seem unable to grasp the gravity of the situation and react effectively. They are going for the kill shot and we seem clueless as to how to counter this satanic onslaught.
I wonder if maybe his obvious surprise was that someone asked a REAL question?
Hell yea it shocked him. He went from Big Club to useful idiot status in 72 hours.
The media follows the boss’s orders, and the boss follows the Global Orders (why else would billionaires own News companies)
The media is asking (allowed by upper managmeent) questions to hurt Joe. No other reason on earth for the ‘Media that built him up’ to be bringing him down, unless his usefulness has expired.
1) My guess – China and other Global intel groups release info on the election to taint it and cause massive internal civil war.
The New American Civil war is the endpoint of the China directing Joe. Thats how you end a country.
Secretary Austin, Gen. Milley, and the Nat. Security Advisor all have stated that all the contingencies were planned for. Sounds like another lie to the population as this is a contingency for which they hadn’t planned. Dereliction of Duty for all three. Should be brought up on charges.
Had this thought last night,with joe over taking jimmy& O as worst president ever will Jill spill the beans on who really has been running our country.As much as i despise her & Joe i don’t think she would want that in the history books.
So Raheem Kassam’s cryptic tweet on a big story is that Biden cancelled PEOTUS’s
(President in Exile of the US, as JJ Sefton on Ace of Spades hq has cleverly and aptly styled him) cancelled evacuation plans months before this debacle, putting Americans in harms way. I’ve actually run out of derogatory adjectives for this wicked imbecile and his carers.
Yea that’s the June 11 letter circulating.
Total treason
And totally tolerated.
Let’s face it. This is a criminal cartel, I believe, of globalist proportions… a spiders web of unimaginable evil. I know it sounds banal. But that is what it is.
Every explanation of the FUBAR
is a bad option.
Thank heaven for 2nd Amendment. Follow the (old) Boy Scout motto: be prepared.
We know what is coming over the open border, soon if not already.
Thank heaven for 2nd Amendment.
Even the 2nd Amendment can rust from disuse.
It’s more than money IMO………
Israel study says the jab is 53% effective while India study says Ivermectin is 83% effective in preventing infections.
Jab doesn’t protect from variants
Ivermectin according to doctors does protect from variants due to high similarity %
Jab has more reported adverse effects in VAERS than any other vaccine in the past 10-15 years
Ivermectin been used for 30-40 years virtually no side effects
So tell me if the health agencies are suppose to be about helping people why do they refuse to speak about Ivermectin?
clot-shot has TWICE the composite deaths in six months as the REST of standard vaccines COMBINED over the last 30 YEARS
I’ve always wondered what “dumber than dirt” would look like…I can now make that one off my bucket list….I just saw it.
That is what affirmative action looks like.
“Dumber than Dirt”
Exactly what they were seeking in filling every cabinet position.
He has sooooo much company.
He and Milley are saying ” I thought the woke sh#t was supposed keep us safe from this kind of thing…uh Jen?”.
Thoroughly Moronic Milley
General Failure.
I Love Jesse Kelly. He tells it like it is and loves this country.
I listen to his radio show every day. He would have been my choice to replace Rush.
Good man.
This point needs to be digested. They truly hate this country. Even people with the right skills will not perform well in a job working for a company they hate. And an incompetent person, well you see the result.
Don’t give them an out, make them feel as stupid as they all are. Ridicule unceasingly.
Jesse Kelly is correct, unfortunately. Communists do not get embarrassed, they have no conscious, or ethics, morals.
The USA citizens don’t matter. Stuck in Afghanistan? About to be killed? Oh well.
“conscience” perhaps… although he does seem to be unconscious…
He is so right they are not embarrassed at any of this none of them are.
To be embarrassed would require some kind of moral consciousness, some kind of self awareness.
I expect no more from them than some wild animal out there.
They didn’t care how this would ended or they would have planned it.
They didn’t plan they just let this Afghanistan retreat unravel however which way.
But remember, they did no wrong…they are throwing Biden under the bus to take the fault because they know he is leaving office, soon…therefore saving their own deep state positions. If they showed embarrassment that would be admitting their own guilt, not bidens
Exactly. If they remove Xiden then all this goes away………the media hores carry their water.
What’s stunning is that they’re not even trying that hard to avoid the bad press. They are so busy planning the Expungement that Biden has to be there every minute.
