Keeping in mind that State Department personnel are delicate wallflowers prone to exaggerated proclamations of situations, a report from U.S. embassy staff in Afghanistan trying to reach the airport contrasts a different narrative than currently outlined by the White House.
According to state department cables released to NBC news, some of the Afghan staff said they would rather take a bullet from the Taliban rather than attempt another effort to run the gauntlet and reach the Kabul airport.
(Via NBC) […] The cable, which was sent Saturday, said memos were sent Wednesday inviting Afghan staff members at the embassy to head to Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul. It told them to take food and to prepare for difficult conditions. “However, no one anticipated the brutal experience that occurred,” the cable said.
Staffers reported being jostled, hit, spat on and cursed at by Taliban fighters at checkpoints near the airport, it said, adding that criminals were taking advantage of the chaos while the U.S. military tried to maintain order “in an extremely physical situation.”
Some staff members reported that they were almost separated from their children, while others collapsed in a crush of people and had to be taken to hospitals with injuries, the cable said. Others said they had collapsed on the road because of heat exhaustion, it said.
“It would be better to die under the Taliban’s bullet” than face the crowds again, a staff member was quoted as saying in the cable. “Happy to die here, but with dignity and pride,” another said. (read more)
This issue was raised again today to the State Department.
.
Meanwhile, back in the White House, Press Secretary Jen Psaki said: “It’s irresponsible to say that Americans are stranded.” WATCH:
So Jen, I guess they’re on Vacation?
Perhaps she’s hoping to get the John Cleese part in the parrot shop?
Realtime Collapse of the Ministry Of Truth.
We have always be at war with East Asia.
Reality circled back and bit her
good one!
Maybe the left is counting refugees as US Citizens prematurely?
Unconstrained by simple matters such as truth
glitch that they have already corrected. quarantine is getting tighter in the matrix on the normies.
I guess it depends on the meaning of the word “stranded.” (/s)
Mostly peacefully stranded.
Peacefully and Safely stranded.
As someone who lived abroad a lot in my life, this scenario is an absolute Nightmare to me.
I feel So. Bad. for these people.
I just can’t imagine what this must be like. Not even close.
Indeed. Being a U.S.citizen used to mean you had protection….now it’s the opposite. They would have a better chance of they were on a terrorist no fly list . Those folks are beginning to show up in Europe.
Has anyone ever seen a bigger bunch of incompetent buffoons then this group ?
The administration is so use to lying creating an alternate reality, that when truth (evidence) presents, they cannot accept it.
Moe, Larry and Curly look like brain surgeons compared to this group.
what we have here is a failure to communicate
It’s irresponsible to believe anything stated by anyone in this fraud of an administration.
Either they are dead or my watch has stopped.
Agreed, those in the White House and our entire governmental institutions have shown time and time again they are nothing but liars and cheaters and we can now add killers to that list.
And still people gather around to hear them craft their webs of deceit, commonly known BS.
Dull the whole human race has become absolutely obtuse.
The fictional Neanderthal is portrayed having more sense than our pathetic politicians and government leaders.
We will never recover from this not in ten lifetimes.
Someone needs to ask who made the decision to cede Kabul to the taliban and choose to operate from an airport surrounded by the Taliban and now elements of ISIS?
Agree 100%. But as we’ve seen over the past several days, very few in the Media who are permitted in Princess Psaki’s sacred vicinity have the courage to challenge her (or anyone else in this White House Occupancy)
Ok so let’s ask Kirby at DoD…who made the call to cede Kabul and operate from an airport surrounded by the taliban if your objective was to get civilians out of Kabul?
Well, maybe ask the question to get him on the record. But I don’t expect Kirby will answer or answer honestly either. He’s JoeBama’s new DOD Press Secretary (under the thoroughly useless SecDef Lloyd Austin). They’re all liars and side-steppers.
A strongly worded letter from Lindsay Graham would get Kirby talking…I’m sorry I couldnt stop laughing as I wrote that.
It was the least bad if their options. We lost. They call the shots. It could be much worse than chaos.
he (Kirby) keeps clutching his hands . . . I think that denotes extreme anxiety
if he is feeling anxious, does he have any idea how anxious the Americans are that have been stranded in Afghanistan?
Staffers reported being jostled, hit, spat on and cursed at by Taliban fighters ….. Oh the horrors these woke wimps have to endure. Too bad the embassy did not have safe spaces set aside for these $ussies.
There plan is to destroy America one cut at a time. Folks wake up these clowns want to destroy you.
Instead of playing hail to the chief for biteme.
They should play
THE BACKSTABBERS by THE O.J’S.
Only the lady the song is referring to is AMERICA’S LADY LIBERTY!
Where are the British, French and Germans to save them?
Our military isn’t available as they are too busy boning up for their final exams in CRT, wokeness and LGBTQLMNOPXYZ.
Merkel contacted Putin asking for help. The French and Brits are going outside the wire to help people. Pray for American Troops, I can assure. you they are not happy w/this crisis.
The evil Putin and the Russians are the #2 supplier of oil to the US at the moment. Some people get no respect.
our military is preparing for the real enemies of the regime on the home front.
Brutality?!
But I heard CNN insist they were friendly! /s
Delusional…. Taliban=Dothraki. Except by the grace of God, we won’t get outta Afghanistan without mass murder, beheadings and atrocities. They have no clue of the depravity they are facing.
I heard “mostly friendly”, sort of like the “mostly peaceful” Pantifa riots …
If the rest of the state department personnel, are anything like their boss blinken. Calling them delicate wallflowers, would be giving them too much credit.
It has been known for years that President Trump was removing troops from Afganistan, and then Biden gave some warning. Why are there still people in there? What were they thinking? Are they really there at all?
They are reporting from inside Afghanistan. Are you calling them liars?
I heard on the news about a week and a half before Kabul fell the state dept warning for ALL Americans to leave Afghanistan immediately.
“Better a lion at the head of an Army of lambs than a lamb at the head of an Army of lions.” Alexander the Great. Here in the USA, we have a pussy as Commander in Chief. The Soldiers and Marines now in Afghanistan, would go outside the wire in a heartbeat to rescue American citizens. And. Allies—-except we have a wimp in Joe Biden. WIMP=weak, impotent, malignant and a pussy.
“except we have a wimp in Joe Biden. WIMP=weak, impotent, malignant and a pussy.”
And that is why our current military’s Top Brass like him so much. He is so much like them. He loves CRT and Wokness too, again just like them.
We got neither
WHY would Embassy staff not already be at airport?
This makes no sense. I thought Embassy staff were evacuated last wk?
NOTHING is the truth and there is no truth. It’s managing the lies, deception ,the PR, the talking points and a frail, demented POTUS that has no clue and a VP that is in Singapore.
God help anyone in Afghanistan if you are dependent on this govt?
And that should be a wake-up call for other embassy staff’s. YOU are on your own. This govt ain’t coming for you, ain’t saving you and could care less.
WHY was Doocie the ONLY person that questioned Psaki on this????? WHY???
If there wasn’t a Dem in the WH, good Lord, the paint would be peeling from the walls from the fiery questions and the blame games and the gotcha questions.
I will say it again, if you are a citizen in a foreign country, don’t be a fool and think you are valued.
He’s the token”journalist” for Fox. He has been a bit of a bulldog with his questions. But he still works for Faux
at least he asks questions that they are not prepared for…his dad is gone to the globalist side and Brian one of his cohosts is a closet Dimm/commie
Good catch. We were told they all went to the airport.
They may have forgotten about the Afghan nationals. Just Saying.
Someone said that “Biden gave some warning” whatever that means
Reasonableness doesn’t work with the ruling Taliban.
Reasonableness doesn’t work with our ruling communists.
The victims of the former are unarmed.
The victims of the latter might as well be.
“Welcome Afghan Allies”
On its site, Lutheran Social Services of the National Capital Area wants people to be ready to offer “welcome“ to those being delivered here. When you dig a little further, that apparently may involve lots of cash and housing and other things under what some churches and organizations reportedly have been calling missions:
https://lssnca.org
Those mission-minded wanting to see evident “religious” prioritizes of the organization and its affiliates might want to take a look at the same-sex adoption program of an apparent affiliate:
https://chlss.org/adoption/lgbtq-adoption/
“Our infant program is open to individuals and couples in Maryland, Minnesota, and Virginia.”
They can have a look on that page at the number of affiliated groups listed like PFLAG and the National LGBTQ Task Force.
Looks like it’s going to be a very key time for those who are gonna be told that they’re helping “missions,“ by funding these resettlement groups with assumed religious priorities to take a hard look at what they’re actually funding.
(Part of that would also be to investigate whether any support agreements would allow for actual mission/evangelization work with those involved, or whether there’s a restriction. Another part would also be examining what accounting and checks and balances there are or should be as far as where the funding and support is supposed to go. It’s one thing when a church or an organization wants to allow individuals to give their own support; it’s quite another when they want to give as an organization, especially “missions“ funding.)
What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy.
(James Madison)
Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.
(Diderot)
If that were true, communists wouldn’t be atheists.
Pope John Paul II with President Reagan and Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher were one heck of a team in the cause of liberty.
The modern institutional church is clueless, in their desire to reinvent themselves to accommodate the heathen world they have become blind guides.
Not only are they not able to lead the way but they hinder and get in the way of those who would enter in.
The modern day church should close their doors and go home, there’s hardly a gospel preacher in the entire lot of them.
They wanna get up there and nail a stray shingle when the house is on fire.
False shepherds
depends on what you define as a “church”…but I would say you are seriously jaded…I have had little trouble finding a “gospel preacher” all my life and I have a few years under my belt…l@@k for a KINGS JAMES BIBLE using church that believes in Heaven and Hell and the blood of Jesus as the cleansing agent…as HE is the ONLY way to heaven they should preach the GOSPEL…which means the life, death, and resurrection of Him as Lord and the one path to Salvation…no really that is what the word Gospel means life, death, and resurrection or more succinctly the “Good News”
With all respect, the archaic KINGS [sic] JAMES BIBLE is not the measure a sound gospel preaching church. I can think of several churches off the top of my head that faithfully preach and teach the GOSPEL using the excellent English Standard Version (ESV), New American Standard Bible (NASB), New International Version (NIV) and even the New King James Version (NKJV).
John MacArthur’s church, Alistair Begg’s church, Jack Hibbs’ church, Greg Laurie’s church- these come immediately to mind.
Speaking from personal experience, one of these churches on your list subordinates Sola Scriptura to ecclesiastical rule.
The Westminster Confession was a reasonably good effort to define faith and practice but it puts too much authority in the hands of civil and ecclesiastical rulers.
From a soteriological perspective it is solid; from an eschatological viewpoint it suffers from its devotion to post- millennialism.
The two Great Wars of the past century ought to have disabuse theologians of the notion that the world is becoming a better place with each passing day.
Rant off…
Late reply. I hear ya ?
When does this charade of an administration end? A pResident with a failing mind and a VP that giggles like a little girl. America deserves better!
This is what Americans voted for.
Lies.
No, no we did not vote for this atrocity.
This is what was instituted against America.
Not so.
America voted for Trump.
Biden was shoved down our throats.
Does it?
Or have we gotten the government we deserve?
ding ding.
we are unwilling to do much about it, so at what point does it become our faulty anyway?
Americans have consistently returned the same congress critters to the office for decades. The ones who are supposed to make laws to protect the citizens and oversee agencies they created. Oversight that is supposed to keep these agencies under control.
Decades where some of them are so inept and even feeble, they are ceremonial, and their staffs run everything. Staff doesn’t really have any concern for what the voters expect from the elected official just in furthering their careers. The official is not held accountable by the voters anyway.
Even with crooked elections in some areas, it doesn’t account for the nationwide pattern. The apathy of fat and happy Americans have brought us to this point. Yes, maybe we have gotten the government we deserve.
You reckon
Anyone else tired of seeing this Biden Regime of masked gangsters destroying the country?
“Almost 15 million mail-in ballots were unaccounted for in the 2020 presidential election, and more than a million more ballots were undeliverable, according to a new study. The Public Interest Legal Foundation, a conservative watchdog group on election integrity, released a research brief Wednesday assessing the effect of mass mail-in balloting in an election with a close presidential race in key battleground states such as Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin.
“These figures detail how the 2020 push to mail voting needs to be a one-year experiment,” J. Christian Adams, president of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, said in a public statement. The report found that 1.1 million mail-in ballots were undeliverable for various reasons. Election officials rejected another 560,814 mail-in ballots. Another 14.7 million mailed ballots met an “unknown” fate, the report says. ~ The Daily Signal
Sadly nothing will happen. By this time next year this Country will be no more.
Also from the comments on Gateway Pundit :
approx total 158 million votes, Census says 150 million registered voters – approx 105% turnout ?????????
( but it appears that census number must be like a covid number – isn’t the same from one day to the next )
Please contemplate this:
From D O D approximately 2,500 U S Military deaths so far in Afghanistan
I am sorry to say that it appears we may greatly exceed that number in U S civilian casualties from this horrendous disaster created by our corrupt incompetent government !
The entirety of this situation is the direct result of the American high command ordering the American forces to … surrender unconditionally. Leaving everything and everybody in the Taliban’s hands and fleeing in the dead of night.
We are perfectly aware that military planners did prepare a comprehensive withdrawal strategy that would safely extricate everyone – particularly non-combatants – then extricate the valuable equipment and destroy the rest – leaving the enemy with nothing … as of course it should be. We know this because President Trump had a copy of it and referred to it many times. This is what any professional military organization would do … period.
Had the military been ordered to carry out this strategy, they would have done so.
What happened instead is that the American forces were ordered to do exactly what they did. They were ordered to leave the enemy with everything.
Someone – on the American side – wanted this. And they inexplicably still want it.
In addition to being the first unconditional surrender of entire armies in the entire(!) history of the American military and of the nation, in my sincere estimation this qualifies as treason. Starting with the “*”-in-chief and working downward.
I say this in part because I judge this to be a deliberate American(!!) act.
Of course it’s deliberate! With a plan already in place, how could it not be? And then to keep diddling around while ignoring trapped Americans and only flying out terrorists . . . yeah, no way in hell this is an accident.
This has Ovomit’s fingerprints all over it!
Barack wanted the weapons and the supporting software for his allies the moslems in Iran.
Nobama is too lazy. This is Valerie Jarrett.
I saw this quote in a “Federalist” column today. “The solution for failing to export American democracy to Afghanistan, you see, is to import Afghanistan into America.”
Excellent article, Link: After Afghanistan, No More Moral Blackmail From Failed Interventionists (thefederalist.com)
Yes. ?
Psaki is the face of the arrogant W.A.S.P. Biden Regime. She lied just like President Sippy Cup lied to the camera. The Afghan Embassy Staff have not been able to reach Kabul airport safely. Psaki! You are a liar!
She needs to tell us how the decision was made to cede Kabul to the Taliban then attempt to operate from an airport surrounded by the Taliban. Who made that call and why?
I thought Biden was Catholic?
Biden is a CINO. Like Pope Lenin.
“…the arrogant W.A.S.P. Biden Regime.”
Pedo Joe is Roman Catholic as are most of the justices on the United States Supreme Court.
What does “W.A.S.P.” have do do with anything? Geez.
If the career diplomates in Afghanistan are anything like the ones who were in the Ukrainian embassy, I have a hard time working up much sympathy for them. If you watched the first Trump impeachment trial, you can only hope you never see such a bunch of smug, arrogant elitists again.
Last week we were told all the people at the embassy had all been evacuated. We can’t believe anything these spokespeople say.
The installed regime is just as barbaric as the taliban, if not more so.
God Help these people.
Amen
You got it,
Cut from the same cloth
“Happy to die here, but with dignity and pride.”
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori.
It’s too bad that anyone has to die because of Pedo Joe’s bad judgment but it is better to die with dignity and pride than live as a sex slave or hostage to the Taliban.
Where are the 81 million Biden voters?
Cat got their tongues?
Busy cleaning their cat boxes.
25 million were dead, so the worms have their tongues.
There is no way that 81 million citizens knowingly voted for this dissected husk of a waste of life.
IMO, Many of them are of the belief that..” These people have known about the withdraw since like forever!” So, in their tainted lefty views…”F’em!”
If most of the Taliban fighters and leaders are coming from Pakistan, then why is it being called a “civil war”.
They were just staying in Pakistan until Biden became CIC..
When CW2 starts here most of the initial deaths and casualties on the left will be people that are here from different countries.Does that mean it isn’t CW2?
Has anyone else noted that Ginger Raggedy Jenn alludes that some Americans want to stay?
Yes, they keep saying that over and over. They said it the first or second day if I recall correctly. But why? Someone earlier mentioned that they will use it as an excuse for not getting all Americans home. “Well, we tried but they didn’t want to leave.’
Yes. And I keep asking for a definition of American, so far I have only seen the concern to be to get Afghans out. How many were given American Citizenship over the last 20 years? Most of these people want out because they don’t want to be there, understandable, but we cannot evacuate an entire country. It would be easier at this point to round up the Taliban and fly them out, dump them in the ocean, than to try to do a mass exodus.
W/the exception of the media, where are all the white people that I know that are there?
Lying liars lie.

As if we don’t already have enough invaders from all over the world.
Wont be long until they’re here in S.A.
They’ll be sightseeing at the Rim before long.
Just add them to the list of violent invaders this county loves to embrace.
You know mayor Nuremberg (?) and judge wolf are chomping at the bit to get vax passports going here
in SA.
So true.
And, hate to say it, but there is big money to be made in the “refugee resettlement” business. And the level of ignorance among so many religious orgs who trip over themselves to be part of it is shocking. They have no idea they are embracing people who follow an ideology that is one of world domination.
Oh, the ELCA knows exactly what the ideology is. The ELCA is a far, far left LBQT organization masquerading as a religion. And they make hundreds of millions off of resettlement of illegals. Want to know all about this satan worshipping organization, check out Exposing the ELCA web site.
I must say Trump and Biden has something in common – ultimatums.
Trump gives them to the Taliban (“If you harm one American, we know where you live”), and Biden gets them from the Taliban.
And now, it seems, the Brits are helping get Americans out.

10 hour work weeks can be very exhausting for some people.
At some point if our own forces refuse to act, they are complicit, regardless of their orders.
It will be good training to see who did the right thing when they come home and are told to act on the home front…
Terminology clarification:
Seems there’s some confusion about the “Embassy staff” reporting difficulty in reaching the airport.
These are NOT Americans. The vast majority of “staff” at every US Embassy is “local nationals,” citizens of the host country; or “third country nationals,” citizens of countries other than the host or the USA.
These reports of “Embassy staff” having problems getting to the airport are either local nationals or third country nationals.
Jen Jen, is that you?
What’s that supposed to mean?
They’re using terminology that is clearly not understood by folks here. They should have clarified the teriminology they’re using. But they did not. That doesn’t make it right to jump to faulty conclusions based on the misunderstanding.
ALL official Americans are out of the embassy and the city. American diplomats and American civil service employees of the DOS have been evacuated.
Pouncing on misunderstood terms as “evidence” of the deep state’s incompetence, or something, just falls into their trap. Misunderstanding is not bad, but being vocally critical, based on that misunderstanding is not good.
Hope that helps.
Psaki is pstupid.
Talk about the Ministry of Misinformation.
No, she’s not stupid. She’s is excellent at her job of spinning the facts and misleading the public.
“At this point, what difference does it make?”
Don’t really care what happen to State Department bureaucrats. They support the destruction of the US and cause all kinds of trouble for innocent people around the world. Karma
I guarantee there is a gaggle of them in that embassy specifically who actively worked to undermine Trump, their supposed leader.
Kind of my feeling, but another poster here said the people who they’re talking about aren’t citizens but staff, locals who worked at the embassy. That makes sense since we were told all embassy people were evacuated last week. Naturally the state dept. elitists don’t care about them.
Woman with red hair speak with forked tongue!
99.97% of the ladies in a poll say they prefer Japanese gropers over Taliban goat ropers.
It is a long journey to the airport.
Well golly gee wilicker, almost sounds like it would’ve been a better plan to keep the Military in place and Bagram open and guide people the 37 miles to Bagram for evacuation a few weeks ago.
Presumably, the 37 mile road to the Bagram area is less crowded and hectic than a Major. City.
But, according to Sullivan, the “logistics” of going to Bagram were just too complex. And Chuck Todd never asked him what he MEANT by that.
They know, but they want our military demoralized and our country weakened. They are doing everything right
Some general said that at the time, they only had enough troops to secure the embassy and the Kabul airport, so they had to close Bagram. It makes as much sense as anything else in this fiasco.
Am I wrong to dream about a military coup from the pissed off low rank patriots and just take over the country and end this madness?
It’s out of control, we can’t vote our way out of this.
The regime could care less about causing a massive humanitarian disaster. Our border is wide open, we are risking being attacked by terrorists. 9/11 style.
Our nation is at risk. People’s lives…
Texit
YES PLEASE
Americans who want to come if they want to come home? What sane person would want to stay there?
Raggedy Ann is such a LIAR.
If this Embassy staff is anything like the one in Ukraine they should fend for them selfs and maybe they will change their minds about criminal behavior against this country
As a Canadian who served militarily with NATO Allies and U.S. troops (three combat tours totaling 20 months; 2004-05, 2007, 2011) I am confident this is not ONLY absolute incompetence from a corrupt and CRIMINAL administration in D.C. but to what measure was this OK for them to literally RETREAT from AFG???
The U.S.A.s credibility on the world stage is 100% gone now. Many Allies will become former Allies.
NATO is also corrupt and very legacy.
The whole western civilization is going down, marginalized.
Thank you for your service. I have no doubt those NATO & US service members appreciate your dedication, and are equally disgusted by the betrayal of this administration.
My hubby was in the RCAF many years ago (he’s 64 now).
Thank you for everything y’all are doing to help.
We hate this piece of excrement fraudulently posing as POTUS.
NATO is nothing more then a criminal organization that sucks 750 billion a year from the U.S. of its trillion annual budget.
Brand spanking new building we paid for and most of the NATO equipment is nonfunctional
I too appreciate your service. I cannot imagine the feeling of seeing your blood, sweat, and tears go for naught in the end. But, if I makes Georgia and the Ukraine rethink joining NATO, it was not in vain. It will be for peace.
Nice hypocrisy Jen.
Your entire existence is the epitome of irresponsibility.
Found it interesting Marc Elias left Perkins-Coie Friday…whats up there?
Most likely his next evil job in government awaits him.
Biden on the edge today. “We’re going to have a female Vice President who is going to be…. President pretty soon.”
This is what we all need to be doing:
https://rumble.com/vll20m-wow-patriot-father-smashes-school-board-seeks-u.s.-congressional-seat.html
Notice how she reiterates that they are bringing out “Americans who want to come home”. Would there be an American who would ever want to remain in Afghanistan? Ever?
If you can handle Sharia (no thanks) it will be freer than the US in 5 years if we don’t defend her.
What the h***??? Just watched that short first clip and the idiot SPOX didn’t even address the question. But, hey, good to know everyone’s “on the same page,” irrelevant as that might be to the issue at hand that was posed.
And what, pray tell, might that page say? I’ll leave that to Treepers to chime in should they be inclined, kind of alike a caption this.
There’s one woman, Psaki, I’d love to see reassigned to Kabul or the outskirts.
Might change her haughty, forked tongue attitude to those asking questions she can’t possibly answer truthfully, so she drags the person down in her smug lies.
Contemptuous personality, perfectly suited for those she tries, but fails to cover for.
From CodeMonkeyZ a complete list of military equipment left for our enemy.
My bet this haul alone vaults Afghanistan Taliban Army into the top 12-15 militaries in the World, maybe top 10
All thanks and donated by Biden and his band of fools.
Here is a more complete list of US-supplied and left behind equipment list now controlled by Taliban:
-2,000 Armored Vehicles Including Humvees and MRAP’s
-75,989 Total Vehicles: FMTV, M35, Ford Rangers, Ford F350, Ford Vans, Toyota Pickups, Armored Security Vehicles etc
-45 UH-60 Blachhawk Helicopters

I fear America will see these weapons used against it’s citizens. Anyone with basic combat experience would have known to prevent this arsenal from falling into enemy hands. It is difficult to believe the withdrawal didn’t include nefarious intentions.
So 16,000 made it to the airport? What does it means “screened”?
The total passenger count for those flights was about 16,000. Of that number, the U.S. military transported just under 11,000 personnel, he said.
they’re screened at temporary safe havens
https://breaking911.com/thousands-of-afghan-refugees-heading-to-new-jersey-military-base/
I’ll venture a guess: Screened is a buzzword meant to assure lemmings that some thorough process was completed and we can all breathe a sigh of relief and welcome our newfound friends. But in point of fact, screened means next to nothing, or nothing at all.
Yes, they check linked-in to see if they are listed as Taliban employees.
Look at this! 14 Republicans calling for Biden to resign. Fourteen!!! I mean, wow! That’s more than you can count on two hands. At this rate, the full blown, fist pounding, bold tweet theater will reach peak impressiveness by around the year 2027, by my best estimates. The GOP is finally on a roll! (/s)

Washington is full of TRAITORS & COWARDS.
Traitors on the LEFT . . . . . . . Cowards on the RIGHT
And yet not even ONE to go to the DC jail and demand release of political prisoners – something that would be far more likely to bear positive results
Incorrect. Louie Gohmert, Margorie Taylor Greene and I think a few others all went together. (Gohmert is actually on a committee tasked w/prison inspections so he does this kind of thing on a regular basis.)
They got inside the front door. Some underling tyrant told them to leave. They asked to speak w/a supervisor. Supervisor came out but breezed past them. The congressional reps followed the sup outside. The sup went in and they locked the freaking doors locking the reps outside. And that was that. Heard Gohmert describe the whole thing during an interview a few weeks ago.
And the worst part (if there is a single worst part) is that Gohmert seems to feel there’s nothing more that can be done. WAT??????? And Louie is one of the good guys. But he was basically saying, oh well while shaking his head and being outraged. WAT???? You’re telling me a sitting Congressman has no authority over the petty tyrants at the prison to force them to let them in, inspect, see the prisoners, etc.
It feels like everyone is so worn down, even the good guys.

Jen apparently doesn’t understand the dynamics of what is about to happen. Joe and his administration are being thrown under the bus. The media water carriers, who did their part to elect this unqualified embarrassment, are no longer on board. All of the previous protections no longer apply. Stand at the podium and make ridiculous pronouncements, and you will be pilloried.
Why does this feel like a geopolitical LARP?
Why does this feel manufacture?
Are we supposed to feel bad they created a disaster and are now stuck in it?
They will come home and aim the anti-terror state on US citizens.
I’m thinking they’ve all been evacted by now but want to claim that the administration came and saved they’re lives. Then they can also claim PTSD for their pseudo ordeal and retire with full pension and disability. The media will love how brave they were and repot JoeBama saved them. Win, win, win. Lies nothing but lies, anything but the truth.
