Earlier today the occupant of the White House, or someone on his behalf, released a written statement on the current status of the Afghanistan crisis:
WHITE HOUSE – “This morning, I met with my national security team in Washington and my commanders in the field. We discussed the strike that U.S. forces took last night against the terrorist group ISIS-K in Afghanistan. I said we would go after the group responsible for the attack on our troops and innocent civilians in Kabul, and we have. This strike was not the last. We will continue to hunt down any person involved in that heinous attack and make them pay. Whenever anyone seeks to harm the United States or attack our troops, we will respond. That will never be in doubt. I thanked General McKenzie for his leadership of that mission, and for his commitment to the safety of our troops in Afghanistan.
The situation on the ground continues to be extremely dangerous, and the threat of terrorist attacks on the airport remains high. Our commanders informed me that an attack is highly likely in the next 24-36 hours. I directed them to take every possible measure to prioritize force protection, and ensured that they have all the authorities, resources and plans to protect our men and women on the ground. They assured me that they did, and that they could take these measures while completing the mission and safely retrograding our personnel.
Despite the treacherous situation in Kabul, we are continuing to evacuate civilians. Yesterday, we brought out another 6,800 people, including hundreds of Americans. And today, we discussed the ongoing preparations to help people continue to leave Afghanistan after our military departs.
The 13 service members that we lost were heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice in service of our highest American ideals and while saving the lives of others. Their bravery and selflessness has enabled more than 117,000 people at risk to reach safety thus far. May God protect our troops and all those standing watch in these dangerous days. (read more)
Fool.
So for a week I’ve been convinced that Dept of State had undue influence on that Bagram decision
And mentioned an interview with Rep Mike Garcia of California who said similar things
Here’s the video that finally posted, a full episode for Fox’s Shannon Breem show
https://video.foxnews.com/v/6269754527001
The Garcia interview is at 1:12:00 right after a big red-and-yellow ‘Breaking News’ full-screen banner
— Breem: Forces left Bagram without coordination w Afghan allies
— Garcia: This is the linchpin of decisions, leaving Bagram in dead of night 2 in the morning, one of the most critical mistakes
— Biden decided this would be a diplomatic mission rather than a military mission, to be run by Dept of State
— Dept of State and Biden decided they didn’t need that many troops and this would be run as a State Dept mission
My question: how on God’s earth did our Military acquiesce to this? (giving up a secure, defensible base from which missions and withdrawal could be conducted with ADEQUATE FORCE PROTECTION)
— Garcia says he’s a member of a “4-country Caucus”, about 25 veterans who served Iraq and Afghanistan
— Won’t be able to mount military rescue missions, not enough heavy weaponry and transport on the ground because it’s being run as a diplomatic mission
Lots of other stuff I can’t quote, but it’s worth a viewing
So in other words, Benghazi 2.0.
The only thing missing is Blinken saying what difference does it make.
Oh, that’s 3 yrs down the line if Democrats lose the House. /sarc
Here’s more on the “four” country caucus I mentioned, it’s actually “For”
Garcia leads “For Country Caucus”
Rep. Mike Garcia, whose 25th Congressional District includes the Antelope Valley, is leading the “For Country Caucus,” — a nonpartisan group of 25 congressional veterans calling on President Biden to disregard his withdrawal date from Afghanistan and commit to evacuating all Americans and Afghan allies.
The veteran lawmakers sent a letter to Biden stating that a central value of military service is to “leave no one behind” and that self-imposed deadlines of withdrawal should not prohibit protecting Americans and U.S. allies.
Garcia said his office is working on more than 100 cases to evacuate Americans and Afghan allies from Afghanistan. Constituents aware of Americans or allies trapped in Afghanistan are encouraged to contact Garcia’s office at 661-568-4855.
The For CountryCaucus is the only bipartisan veteran caucus in Congress.
Hillary Clinton is tanned, rested, and ready to take over the American hostage rescue mission.
Hillary may be tan and rested, but judging from a recent photo of her, she has gained 75 pounds.
Blinken is a blinkin’ dandy.
Excellent clip. Goes right with SD’s post on the divide between CIA/State Dept against the White House/Pentagon.
thx for pointing that out, Will, I hadn’t caught that distinction
They aquessed due to woke generals like pretty boy Miley and his kissing cousin Baby Lloyd!
Those people are unreal! Let me assure you… that’ll make history with a capital H!
Make no mistake this treasonous plan was well thought out a long time ago.
This was planned.
And the US Government knows how many terrorists they are bringing in daily from Afghanistan and through the border.
We are being invaded on purpose.
You should be very pissed.
Exactly! Deliberate plan by the treasonous US govt. They have a hidden agenda.
Ian Smith of Atillis Gym in NJ (he’s the guy who stood up to Gov Murphy and refused to close his business) calls out the BS:
Reckless @JoeBiden pull out.⠀
Open power vacuum.
Surrender entire country of weapons.
Sloppy evacuation.
“Terrorist attack” @ airport.
Media brings on Neo-Cons/RINOS like @DanCrenshawTX to talk strategy.⠀
30k unvetted refugees.
Start new war home/abroad. ⠀
See how it works?
And armed to the teeth.
Basically they issued a burn notice to the Taliban on anyone who helped our mission in Afghanistan for the last 20 years.
Lets be clear with this. It has OBAMA written all over it. Biden is completely incapable of planning or “misplanning” this mess. As stated above, Benghazi 2.0 with the same people running the show.
Pretender Biden: “They assured me that they did, and that they could take these measures while completing the mission and safely retrograding our personnel.”
translation: so if something bad happens, it is THEIR fault! not MINE!
Don’t worry, Biden will take full accountability but it’s their fault.
Word salad.
I seriously doubt that Biden wrote that statement on the current status of the Afghanistan crisis. The wording just isn’t Biden’s form of speech.
Someone else on his behalf.
Sleepy Joe was busy napping in the Oval Office in front of the Israeli PM this afternoon.
PS -My butt’s been wiped!
Empty suit.
Those suits are the ONLY good thing about him. Somebody obviously dresses him everyday. He is destroying our country but they plan for him to look immaculate while he is doing it except for the demented blank look in his eyes which they can’t control.
mr biden’s words serve as an advertisement for the saying talk is cheap – he should admit to his role in stealing the election, resign, advocate for the real president to please come back to the WH and then, and only then, will there be a slight chance for forgiveness for the damage that this demented soul has done to the USA.
My chuckle for the day.
I’ll have a smiggin of what your smoking cause hopeism is the cure.
Peace out.
When the AZ audit is released, I hope the Trump PAC puts out a commercial with a video of the results.
Follow it with a clip of the infamous Biden quote,, “we have put together one of the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organizations in the history of American politics”. Actually, bookend end the proof with the inadvertent confession.
Closing voiceover, “yes, you did and here is some of the proof”.
Peace, I don’t feel a need to forgive and I believe the only way to get Joe Biden to confess would be to hack his teleprompter and put a confession in it.
Those around Biden are proud of what they did. So proud, there was a Time article about it:
https://time.com/5936036/secret-2020-election-campaign/
Sorry Mike, meant to reply to Peace.
Slo Joe “we do not need you for the vote, but we need you after they are counted.”
One donut shop keeper down 2 more to go until we claim total victory.
Make mine glaze.
Joebama regime is colluding with the Taliban. They are basically allies.
Yes through the muslim brotherhood syndicate.
a.k.a. Obama
No doubt. I worry that weaponry they left behind is going straight to the Kashmir border. Lord help us.
The weaponry can go in several different directions. There is plenty to go around.
“Bama” is escaping any finger pointing at HIM.
The plan is working. Silos 2.0
notice the traitor jihadist bama portion is putto m g his two sende in ,z heck, he s yhe on
Joebama Junta is making up new things to blame. Now we Isis -k, then Isis-M, then Isis -N.. Wait. Here come Covid Variant Omega.
It is what they do best.
I was reading an article this morning about food shortages. They are blaming these and high prices n the Delta variant. Yeah right.
Yesterday it was an article on gas prices being 91 cents higher per gallon than last year’s Labor Day Weekend. However they claim it will be short-lived because… drum roll please, we will have the winter mix gas soon.
I am sure that we will have a large terrorist attack the day Arizona posts audit results. Nothing steals the show more than a mass casualty event of dead Americans.
Scary thought but that is exactly what they would do.
The Madness of King Joe.
”As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods; They kill us for their sport.”
I’m still dismayed that your government does not know how many US citizens were in Afghanistan.
They apparently had a list of people who had assisted the US in Afghanistan. And for reasons I cannot understand gave that list to the Taliban.
Now the wording of the statement hints that after the current catastrophe is complete, US forces will be sent to restart the war.
FUBAR.
Could it be that the State Department knows with reasonable accuracy all US Government employees (Americans,) that were in Kabul as of August 1st? After all, they apparently gave these lists to the Taliban, according to reports.
It was reported several days ago that all US Embassy personnel were evacuated.
However, it seems the Generals and Blinken have not given consistent, credible reports on numbers evacuated vs remaining. There might be at least three reasons for this: 1) They don’t know; 2) They don’t want the Taliban to know for tactical reasons; and 3) They are ashamed of the results and don’t want the American people to know.
If they don’t know, they are incompetent and lying about the lists given to the Taliban. If they don’t want the Taliban to know, why did they give them a “hit list”?
This leaves number 3) as most likely: They are ashamed of the results so far and want it obscured from the press and American people.
who’s on first?, i don’t know and don’t give a damn. Hey Abbott !!!!!!
They know, this was the Plan and now they are in cover-up mode.
Do Not Believe One Word coming from the enemy within.
This is why they had to get rid of President Trump. He knew and knows at this very moment.
Don’t be fooled.
Yesterday they were saying they sent out at least 19 warnings to all Americans in Afghanistan telling them to leave, implying that if they are caught it is their fault. But somehow earlier they did not know how many were there. Don’t they know how to count on their fingers, how many messages they sent out with each warning?
They are spinning BS.
Don’t buy it for a nano-second; they know the exact number they are purposefully bringing in the USA daily, hour by hour and dumping them all over the USA.
I’m sure they are in your location or very close to you.
Yes, we have terrorists living amongst us and we will live to witness a kinetic war.
So far, it’s been a cyber war, a covert war, a clandestine war but I fear we are about to witness a kinetic war in our lifetime and it will be the first for the cry-baby millennials.
How it all ends up; only God knows for sure.
There’s an article on American Greatness about the “American Citizens “ in Afghanistan being green card holders that spend the summer with their families in their home country. The 25 school children were actually the same. If they keep saying they are American citizens, then they can keep loading up these refugees while the attention is put on the supposed citizens.
China Joe has followed the orders of his Puppet Masters. He is continuing O’s mission. This was all by design to continue the Great Reset. The problem for them now is that We The People are now awake to the DS’s plot.
Well yusef bidet, if the tollybon are our “friends and partners” I think you need to replace your Secret Service detail with your new “friends”. Replace the ones guarding your ho too. You are flying them into our country by the planeload so there should be plenty of them to choose from!
Today, Installed Biden, or someone on his behalf, released a written statement on the current status of the Afghanistan crisis.
Biden Releases Statement on Status in Afghanistan
I’d rather see Afghanistan’s Statement on the Status of Biden.
Not really.
It has become abundantly clear that the biden* admin has one goal and one goal only. And that is to eradicate any and all things President Trump accomplished in his 4-year time in office. Never mind the consequences. If it has trumps signature, get rid of it.
While I agree that is part of it, it’s prudent to recall that this is essentially Obama’s third term.
Biden is a useful fool to achieve the transformation of America that Obama sought.
SD, you are the best! But, I take umbrage at the FAIL meme. I think Bidenbama carried out their plan to arm the Muslim Brotherhood and disperse Muslim terrorists all across America and shame America with absolute precision. It was successfully done. The failure lies with the American people for allowing this POS and his commie minions to remain in power.
“Failure lies with the American People”
Getting rid of this government only takes a days worth of real hard fighting. The question is would the sacrifice be worth it without culling the rest of the state legislators bastards who helped engineer the steal.
We, along with Retired Sheriff David Clarke, of Milwaukee County, are working on doing just that.
https://riseupwisconsin.com/in-the-news/
We shall fight in the School Districts, we shall fight in the Town halls, we shall fight in the Counties, we shall fight in the Statehouses …
We must NEVER surrender!
Won’t listen or read what this goober says, just like I used to (not) do with his puppeteer. Actions and decisions matter.
How can anyone believe he wrote one dang word of this? All it takes is two seconds watching him on the tube to know he can’t even spell, “tapioca” anymore, let alone write a letter.
“Where, the, uh, puddin’, uh…trudanamazadaduupressure!”
I don’t want anyone to get shot or go to prison for getting rid of Joe. He’s not worth it. Although, the Country is worth it.
At the rate he’s slipping away it looks like Death may come knocking at his bedroom door any day now.
Get right with God, Joe. You’re time is running out.
Marines Killed in Kabul Airport Explosions Were Killed by U.S.-Made C4 and SEMTEX
Left Behind by US Forces During Withdrawal–Hal Turner Radio
Afghanistan’s former vice-president Amrullah Saleh accuses US of blackmail
over talks with Taliban – ABC News
The prisoners who bombed our soldiers weren’t just released by our Afghan partners when Biden fled Bagram like a con man in the middle of the night. Biden INSISTED the terrorists be freed to attack our troops. He FORCED their release–and then gave them the Semtex and C4.
Then he had to bomb the very ISIS-K Variants he had just freed.
And by “Biden”, I mean, of course, Obama.
Murderers.
This guy saying he was blackmailed in feb 2020 by our government?
Biden, with his tough talk, always a Bad A$$ in his own mind!
Except he can’t even talk- it’s a tough letter, very Republican of him ??♀️
He fought corn pop and won. Does that count?
That “look at me, I’m tough” short statement he made yesterday…
What. A. Joke.
You just KNOW that he had some acting coach rehearse that line w/ him over and over and over before he went on “the stage”.
Yeah… Wyatt Earp…
I apologize for my language the other day. I have just been so angry. This Afghanistan situation seems to have been the straw that broke the camel’s back for me. Today, driving around seeing the flags at half mast, all of the anger has just flooded over me. I am not depressed, I am not sad. I am just mad as I can be. That these imposters would disgrace our soldiers that fought and died for our freedom, is just too much.
I hate what these people are doing to our country. I have asked The Lord to please give me a front row seat when the ultimate justice is served.
Chip, with those words you speak for a lot of us. We are broad in age ranges, broad in backgrounds, we live all over the country some even beyond our borders.
But we share a common desire to see this nation survive the corruption and treasonous actions by those who stole the levers of power from the voters or deceived fellow citizens in order to gain access.
Stand fast. My gut tells me that those of us who resist the bait to commit unplanned and uncoordinated actions, will ultimately come through this and be able to help rebuild our nation and culture.
Our enemies are getting more desperate; their words and actions are telling.
Stand fast I will.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
For everything there is a season, and a time for every [a]purpose under heaven: 2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; 3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; 5 a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; 6 a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; 7 a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; 8 a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.
For me, this is where abiding faith comes in. God is never too early nor too late. Sometimes I have to remember this, especially when I see so so many grief filled families For those horrid, power mad, soulless people who rigged the election, all this is on them. There needs to be an accounting of their godless actions which have put us in this existential predicament. We may not have that coveted front row seat but I have a firm faith that these subhumans will “sooner or later sit down to a banquet of consequences.”
??
They are getting desperate to the point of asking Trump to save themselves.
I hear ya!
Almighty God has got the date marked. I firmly believe that. Nemesis is a righteous judge. God more so. It will happen.
“Vengeance is mine saith the Lord I will repay”.
And believe me I can tell you from first hand observation you can take that to the bank.
Third paragraph, second sentence:
Yesterday, we brought out another 6,800 people, including hundreds of Americans.
Hundreds, so vague! But thousands of non-Americans were evacuated. If we can even believe anything they say.
This statement is meant to demoralize us. Again and again they place Americans last, as an afterthought.
This keeps happening with both the military spokespeople and the State Department. Lord, bring justice.
I caught that too. Somewhere between 200-1000 of the 6800 were Americans.
He apparently fell asleep today during his one on one meeting with Naftali Bennett, the Prime Minister of Israel. Plenty of video on Gateway Pundit and Liberty Daily. My GOSH!!!! Guffaws all around the world. But this beyond a laughing matter. We are in perilous existential times now. I look for devastating events to happen which will expose the rot at the center of our country and will imperil us all.
I see it much different. I see it as saving us all.
The nap was too short for that. Regretfully.
Be sure your own house is in order when the end comes.
As for me and my house, we will serve the lord.
Treason i say
Ollie North on the Jesse Watters show a few minutes ago, when asked by Watters what c0uld possibly be the reason Biden didn’t listen to his military advisors said that yes, cognitive problems could be it but so too could be “blackmail.”
Then North started discussing the face that reps of the CPR were at that very moment with the terrorists who would give them the weaponry left behind.
“Blackmail.” Yes, he went there and props to Watters who has been beating the MSM about the head for a week saying they have blood on their hands for covering up the Hunter Biden laptop.
Of course. What–did they think “kompromat” was just some imaginary stick with which to beat on True PDT?
Oh, it’s real–and every dictatorship on the planet has it on the Biden Crime Family–including the American Deep State.
“…make them pay…”
“…retrograding our personnel.”
Bad things likely, leaders have the necessary resources, they have the call, and they own this–not the white house scribe.
Definitely a committee conjured script.
Reminds me of John “is this where ah ‘git-me a huntin’ license” Kerry retrograding with the rural folk.
“Yesterday, we brought out another 6,800 people, including hundreds of Americans.”
So how many weren’t Americans? My best guess most of them. If they are evacuating Afghans that assisted us I am ok with that too. But I get this sneaking suspicion based on either the chaos on the ground, our ineptitude, and/or plan to water down society there wasn’t a helluva a lot of vetting. Afghans have a bad reputation for how to behave in a cultured society. Mainly when it comes to women and children. You can look at the European countries who took them in. According to my sources a good portion of the men who have accosted women are from this region.
This sign is a must have in my neighborhood.
My only disagreement with the sign is the use of the word leader.
Yeah, me too.
Of course, agree.
But it delights me that it has the same type and design of graphics as all the “woke” signs all over the hoity-toity blueMA town yards, usually right next to a BLM black sign.
I agree, got a magic marker just line the word leader out that’ll fix it
Make one and put it out.
What a bunch of horse manure…..
The US State Dept. always puts the American people last. F them all.
Made all the more dangerous with a mental midget like YOU in charge, my man……..
Joe was it the goal of the 20 year ME War to import 100 of thousands of Afghan Army, their extended families , and refugees?
Or, was it just the Biden Administration goal to import 100 of thousands while keeping our southern border wide open?
MORON! F’ing RESIGN!
How does China Joe explain that he gave $85 BILLION in US military equipment to the enemy?
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/08/bidens-treasonous-handover-weaponry-taliban-terrorists-russia-china/
Has ISIS-K claimed responsibility for the attack?
If not, where’s the evidence that it was them and not one of the other groups in Afghanistan?
White House releases a statement.
Members of ISIS-K are shaking in their boots … from laughter.
Plan is simple … infiltrate Biden’s porous U.S. border and stage suicide events across U.S.
We’ve got a lot of pistol-packin’ grannies (and other able-bodied people) who are aware of the situation.
They will have some lessons to learn. This is not Europe.
Is this a setup? Deal worked out with the Taliban? Troops are removed safely and Biden claims credit for it citing his decisive action he took against ISIS-K.
No other explanation as to why he is announcing the threat. Well there is one other possibility. We are getting out tonight, a few days early because of the threat. Another excuse for leaving people behind.
The way I read it (i.e., announcing the threat) is: If there is an attack, he can say “see, our superior intel called it, and we’re gonna get even.” If there isn’t an attack, he can (and will) claim credit for having foiled the plot.
Going back to my first point, he will undoubtedly fail to connect “we saw it coming” and “we just had another attack”. He doesn’t have the smarts to reason that if we saw it coming, we should have been able to stop it. And he has no inclination to accept blame for anything, ever.
On another note, I read somewhere today (twice, in fact, but now I can’t find the source) that no one from the Biden regime was at Dover when the fallen service members arrived from Afghanistan. No one. Not sure if I would want anyone from this clown show to show up if a casket contained someone from my family. I think Pres Trump (and even Melania, IIRC) was always there.
Precisely. It’s an all-around win for the devil. Leave earlier than planned, leave more people behind, and claim they thwarted an attack.
There is no word in the English language to describe this level of sickness and evil.
If I recall correctly, the warroom was already talking about the three days’ delay, at least a day or maybe more, before the suicide attack at the airport.
Also, I heard now the Powers That Be are claiming there was one bomb only (is that right?), while on that day the warroom on-the-ground sources were saying definitively two gates. I do suppose that’s the sort of thing that could be incorrect in the confusion.
But, the extra days’ delay was definitely known.
Imagine if you will:
A new homeland terror threat emerges with this, triggering new Patriot Act measures against our citizenry ON TOP OF Covid mitigation measures.
*chilling*
Our military is the best. They are forced to stand by while France and GB gets their people out. This continues the onslaught against the military that started with Obama, making anyone who wants to go into the military have second thoughts. MTMD, “Make the Military Dwindle”, oh, except that Butch lady who threatens Americans if they don’t obey her orders. What a colossal joke.
Our government couldn’t have made a bigger mess or made America look worse. But that seems the whole point.
Incompetent traitor!!
The Taliban want to take Biden to court.
Well, they may prefer little boys, goats and sheep but they have stumbled onto the truth. Go at is sheepherders.
Have they ever truly defined, the mission?
kleen: Chump stock.
Outta Stock
Joe must be indisposed . He’s probably napping since his nap in his meeting with the new Prime Minister of Israel was probably interrupted.

Statement gives the impression that the CIC is not really in charge and is focused more on the narrative than the actual operations.
Just like LBJ & Vietnam.
