Secretary of State Tony Blinken appears on several friendly news shows this morning, as he attempts to walk through the aftermath of a massive U.S. crisis created by a botched withdrawal effort from Afghanistan. The bodies of dead U.S. service members are looming in the background, and the Biden administration is desperate to exit from this problem. [NBC HERE and ABC HERE]
Notable in the spoken language, as well as the visible physical and mental discomfort, is Blinken’s tenuous position as head of a Deep State operation he does not control. The career officials within the Dept of State, the CIA and the broader intelligence community, view Blinken as a temporary apparatchik of the Biden administration, and their current position is aligned against him. That reality is visible in Blinken’s extremely nervous expressions.
The unelected operators, bureaucrats within the Department of State (DoS), make U.S. foreign policy from within the executive branch. There is a pretense promoted by media that the executive branch, specifically the President of the United States, is controlling the internal mechanism of the U.S. State Department, but that’s a ruse. If it were true, the State Department would act like they had accountability to someone or something; they do not.
Team Obama, those in power over the Democrat political mechanisms, are using the Biden crew as useful and disposable idiots. Because Biden was installed, not elected, the Chicago crew are actually in a great position as all the political consequences can fall upon Biden administration personnel, and the people truly in control are isolated and invisible from any repercussions. It is a very interesting dynamic.
Making the issue even more interesting is the institution under Blinken -which he doesn’t control- is aligned with CNN, CNNi and WaPo. As a consequence, the Biden administration cannot rely on CNN or the Washington Post and has to stick to the traditional alphabets (ABC, CBS, NBC).
♦ 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.
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.
When a Secretary of State is appointed to the role as head of the agency, the arbitrary nature of the institution around them is accepted. In the modern political dynamic, the Secretary of State position is customarily given to a key political figure by the President as a payback or compensation for support. The SoS then uses their position for leisure, personal graft, a life of indulgence and a position to repay the interests of their tribe.
During any Democrat term in office; and in addition to funding the family of the President who appointed them; as long as the Secretary of State appropriately and adequately funds the members, families and friends of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, then they are perceived to be doing their job correctly. The SoS keeps that institutional mechanism working, and in return the unilateral operations of the department are supported.
[Reference – Former Senator John McCain did not like Anthony Blinken because the Arizona senator feared Blinken would tilt the DoS coffers in favor of the Clinton syndicate. Cindy McCain was not about to take a position in line at Tiffany’s behind Chelsea; this became an issue between the two dynasties. Mitch McConnell replaced McCain with Mitt Romney]
Foreign countries know how the nature of the position has evolved, and they no longer respond to the U.S. secretary of state with any level of respect.
From the perspective of foreign governments, the Secretary of State is, for all intents and purposes, irrelevant. Any conflict between their interests and the U.S. state department is like getting a strongly worded letter from Lindsey Graham. And therein lies the problem when a major international crisis erupts, and the Secretary of State is in the global spotlight.
Blinken is the head of an agency he doesn’t control; inside an administration that was installed, not elected; lacking any respect from foreign powers; and he knows he can be targeted, undermined and destroyed at any time by the independent intelligence apparatus. Yeah, it shows on his face.
The Biden administration is like a political Jenga, with Team Obama able to remove the blocks…
The concept of individual achievement seems a capitalist concept, at least not a collectivist concept.
So what if nobody wants to accept the burden of being the one in charge. First among equals?
Blinken finds himself the lightning rod for a collection of incompetent peers. Why would anyone accept this role?
Individual ambition versus collectivist dogma. America needs to be punished versus the self-adoration of the leftist.
We play on..
Ouch…you bring forth a valid statement.
Our real leaders are being molded, you will see them rise and move forward. Look for a new rhetoric that they will speak. The “wind talkers” can only go so far and they have spent most of their energies.
The individual versus the group,each represents a fluid dynamic-where both need each to survive.
The “Collectivist concept” rings of socialism and communism which has shown us the totalitarian.
No great leader can exist without also being a great follower. What is it that is being followed?
It is obvious the completely incompetent eunuchs in the top positions of this fraudulent administration have zero control. The lack of accountability for the puppet masters makes them bolder. The Odumbo globalist garbage are aligning the entire middle east against Israel and equipping and funding them to that end. These pieces of human garbage want the American middle class destroyed and their current behind the scenes bull shit is so obvious they don’t even try to hide anything.
Can you say “Armagedon”?
He didn’t have to accept this role. I can only conclude, therefore, that he is in agreement with the policies of the Administration. Like everyone else.
Or a complete idiot unaware of the mechanizations. He was flattered by the appointment and/or wanted to play the part thinking it would be a cakewalk. Still: in way over his head from day one.
The so-called “leaders” act like they’ve been brainwashed just like the people with TDS and those who are adamate in their beliefs that the deep state can do no wrong.
nothing but lies,
well, for any remaining Americans or helpful Afghans left to try to hotfoot it out of the country overland, it won’t be thru Pakistan

looks like Team Obama is knocking out a couple of those jenga bricks:
Obama Administration Officials Are Torching Biden Over Failed Afghanistan Withdrawal
What a mess. At least I recognize you now. You always look so normal.
Taji and Ubecki are the only two places to go w/any hope, any of the other surrounding countries aren’t going to be helpful. Unless they can go up, as in exfil. It has been a week now and my brain is still trying to absorb it all. Insanity on steroids.
At least Sinken Blinken showed up at the Sunday Blab shows.
Where are Austin and Milley? Still looking in closets and under beds in a rit of fealous jage ?
Better yet, the head of the CIA, NSA all those wunderkinden who are so smart and knew it was coming?
And let’s not forget our esteemed VP Kamlalalala!
The puppet masters are caught between a rock and a hard place. Get rid of the mush for brains Biden (bad optics Joe)
and She Who Cackles when asked a serious and relevant question (bad optics Kamalalala).
When Blinkin does his “There are no words” we should help him out.
Blinkin says Afghanistan should have unrestricted travel which is going to seem weird when we get our next mask mandate.
Blinkin was the Designated Liar, just like Susan Rice after Benghazi.
If Austin or Milley came on, they would have been asked about the military decisions, i.e., closing Bagram , reducing troops to 600 Marines, etc. And they would be asked if it would have been better to keep troop levels high and Bagram open until all the civilians were out. The obvious answer would have been “Yes.”
That would lead to questions about whether Biden was advised of this (he was), and why he went against military advice. Right now Biden is saying he “listened to the generals.”
I’d guess that Austin and Milley echoed what Kamala said last week when she refused to go on TV, “You’re not going to pin this sh!tshow on me!” and refused. If Biden fired either man, there is the risk that one would go public with Biden being the decision maker. Biden needs to keep these two from jumping ship, and jumping ship might eliminate the possibility of those fat, fat defense contractor jobs when they leave the administration.
Politics makes strange bedfellows. Now, we are supposed to be on the side of the DS because they dont want to leave Afghanistan?
Give our brilliant Generals just a little more time
And the Afghan’s love for Americans will surely grow
Give our brilliant Generals just a little more time
And the Afghan’s love for Americans will surely grow
Ever leaving Afghanistan would be a big mistake
Let’s think of how wonderful Islam can be and hesitate
Almost broke and the troops as tired as they may be
But there’s no need for America to act in it’s own interest selfishly
If we part Afghanistan, Allah won’t forget it
Decades from now he’ll surely make us regret it
Unlike our brilliant Generals you don’t understand how wonderful Islam can be and you’re in a hurry
They’re not eager to help us at all, as they hate our guts, but don’t you worry
Our brilliant Generals will win their Hearts and Minds and then they’ll want an even more Islamic way of life
But these things don’t come overnight
Don’t give up ‘cos Afghan progress has been oh so slooooooooooooow
Our brilliant Generals will win their Hearts and Minds if with just a few more centuries they go

I think that’s the one. Just with a few updates.
I think I prefer General Johnson to the top layer of the current DOD crop.
Did Blinky mention that after arming the taliban, they also left them giant stacks of US currency?
What a sweet deal.
https://trendingpolitics.com/as-taliban-offers-biden-deal-to-unfreeze-assets-to-extend-deadline-huge-stacks-of-cash-reported-left-behind-in-afghanistan-knab/
Biden Admin will disregard extending deadline yet still find a reason to unfreeze those huge stacks of cash anyway
for any action, just ask yourself: “Is it in the interest of America”?
if the answer is “NO” – they’ll do it
for 10%, of course
And the name of those who actually helped us. Since the Taliban was in charge of air port security, I’m thinking those who got though the check points were Taliban. That’s just great.?

Sundance earned his money on this one. I never truly understood how the State Dept–specifically the Sec State–worked until I read this article.
Good stuff!!
Can’t someone on Team One lay down the trump card: Obama’s real birth certificate?
Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod have both given their highest personal assurance that they have seen the Divine One’s actual long form Certification of Live Immaculate Conception and in Holy Script! Rahm Emanuel saw it from one hospital and David Axelrod saw it from another one! Twice the absolute incontrovertible proof! I don’t know what more any sane person could possibly want!
This is all a vile and mass racist conspiracy of trying to goad Barack Hussein Obama, our Real Dear Leader with the Certification of Live Immaculate Conception from no less than two locations, and at lest two parents of unquestionable American loyalties and citizenship, into a game of COLB, thereby and with malice of forethought, molesting, tormenting, and otherwise annoying our beloved Real Dear Leader, his wonderful wife Michelle Antoinette, and all their loyal subjects. Verdict first, evidence later. Off with their heads! And Hillary’s first as she was the original birther!!!
First? John Brennan begs to differ:
Chief of firm involved in breach is Obama adviser – CNN.com
I remember that. I think they were deleting incriminating info from Obama’s passport files. They looked at Hillary’s and McCain’s files as a diversion.
So about those two rented children…..
I’ve often said the same thing
Sundance…so what can we do about it?
In the impractical art of getting its $hit together, the GOP must be prepared to get its $hit together at any time in the future. In the practical art of its getting its $hit together, the GOP should have got its $hit together quite some time ago, and it’s probably already too late. We’re all scroomed.

The GOP is defunct.
For all who keep saying we need to reform the GOP, I say NO! we need to put the GOP in the dustbin of history along with the Whigs.
I had to register as an Independent after 11/6. The GOP no longer represents me, locally or nationally. And the sooner everybody realizes this, the sooner we can get on with the business of saving the Republic. This applies especially in blue states, where the GOP is nothing more than a false flag operation.
Quit buying the two party narrative.

Would also appreciate that info! Smart, authentic man.
Thank you MP. That was a refreshing and real point of view! Love this guy! Thanks for link.
Everyone watch this if you can!
He addresses giving in to despair, and why not to do that.
Thanks for posting

Biden is a useful idiot right now, to them. He is being used to create all kinds of chaos, and when he is no longer useable they will yank him like a mower and blame everything on him. Of course he’s probably only deciding what flavor of ice cream he wants and maybe not even that. Is there any recourse for Americans. We’re watching our nation be wrecked in real time.
Under common law Biden must be found innocent as he is as bereft of cognitive ability as an infant or farm animal.
Then why is he POTUS.
Everything he signed must be declared invalid.
Then treat him like a farm animal and humanly euthanize him.
that was highly insensitive. hahahahahaaha
A new report has showcased precisely how horrific a job Joe Biden did in his withdrawal from Afghanistan, and it is far worse than we could have imagined.
The head of the Taliban met with US leaders before the fall of Kabul and offered to let the United States keep the city and the airport but the Biden administration declined, saying that it only needed the airport and only until August 31, The Washington Post reported.
https://conservativebrief.com/biden-administration-could-49882/?utm_source=CB&utm_medium=DJD
Being reported in the Washington Post (CIA) that the military turned down the offer, that Taliban offered the US military control of all of the city of Kabul, but McKenzie, head of centcom, refused.
https://www.breitbart.com/asia/2021/08/29/report-taliban-offered-biden-control-of-kabul-but-he-declined/
Joe Biden: No way out for you
Hundreds of students and alumni of American University of Kabul gathered at a safe house on Sunday and boarded buses in what was supposed to be a final attempt at evacuation on U.S. military flights, students and alumni said.
But after seven hours of waiting for clearance to enter the airport gates and driving around the city, the group met a dead end: Evacuations were permanently called off. The airport gates remained a security threat, and civilian evacuations were ending Monday.
“I regret to inform you that the high command at HKIA in the airport has announced there will be no more rescue flights,” said an email sent to students from the university administration on Sunday afternoon, which was shared with The New York Times.
The email asked the 600 or so students and alumni to return home. The U.S. troop withdrawal from Afghanistan must be completed by a Tuesday deadline, so the U.S. military is turning from evacuating civilians to bringing its own personnel home.
The group was then alarmed to learn that the university had shared a list of names and passport information of hundreds of students and alumni with the Taliban guarding the airport checkpoints, said four students who were on the buses on Sunday.
“They told us: we have given your names to the Taliban,” said Hosay, a 24-year-old sophomore studying business administration who was on the bus on Sunday. “We are all terrified, there is no evacuation, there is no getting out.”

Joe Biden: And furthermore I made this possible…
The Taliban posted a picture of themselves on social media standing at the entrance of a university building with an ominous message, saying they were where America trained infidel “wolves” to corrupt the minds of Muslims.
CIA’s moldy old model for creating an elite for the country. Didn’t work in Indonesia, Philippines, Puerto Rico, Columbia…
Heartbreaking.
American University trains future bureaucrats, probably most of them for State.
Exactly. CIA thru USAID.
From the article:
…”The university shut down its campus on Aug. 14 as word reached that the Taliban were on the outskirts of Kabul. The American University president, Ian Bickford, and foreign staff left Kabul for Doha that night.
Mr. Bickford said in an interview last week that he was working with the State Department to evacuate about 1,200 students and alumni. But on Friday after the deadly attack on the airport, Mr. Bickford said that effort had become much more complicated.
Mr. Bickford said the university was committed to ensuring all enrolled students would finish their degrees remotely.”…
The university president, Ian Bickford, closed the campus, and was on a plane out on August 14.
He started his position on March 1, 2021.
What exactly was he hired to do? Shut the university down? If so, wasn’t part of his role to assist in securing the safety of the campus community during the withdrawal? Sounds like he’s still drawing a paycheck as AUAF president.
Here’s what he published on July 15:
https://www.justsecurity.org/77461/education-is-a-permanent-commitment/
When asked by students what worries him most, he cites a lack of ‘imagination and preparation’ in the “withdrawals rushed implementation”.
He states: “An evident lack of these qualities in the withdrawal’s rushed implementation has already destabilized a fragile central government, produced fear among women and other disenfranchised groups who have achieved major gains over the last 20 years, and upset peace talks in Doha and more planned talks in Istanbul. ”
Ian Bickford booked his flight early. Sounds like his plan for the university is a commitment to remote learning.
Sh*tshow.
This is one of many concerns we should have about Afghans we’re importing in droves. Not only are their values and norms incompatible with Judeo-Christian values, but as you might imagine, they despise us. More so even now, I would imagine, given the shit show that’s been unfolding in Afghanistan.
https://gellerreport.com/2021/08/former-afghanistan-commander-warns-against-accepting-many-local-staff-they-despise-us.html/
How could they despise us, when we had a diversity celebration (with more planning than for the evacuation), to enlighten them? Aren’t they ‘woke’?
Has anyone ask Blinken about the treasure trove of military equipment we just handed over to the Taliban along with pallets of cash? (No doubt he’ll have an answer for it that will satisfy the brainwashed lemming masses, but still…)
https://trendingpolitics.com/as-taliban-offers-biden-deal-to-unfreeze-assets-to-extend-deadline-huge-stacks-of-cash-reported-left-behind-in-afghanistan-knab/
Lots of unanswered questions about the cash, and the canceling of the money plane to the central bank.
Blinken was in the loop, as was Yellen, and likely anyone with a ticket on the early flights out.
Mike Lindell offers a helping hand, and a pillow, to old Joe:
Needed a laugh, but definitely a smile.
Never in my years on this earth had I ever thought that we’d leave Americans behind in a field of battle in favor of “refugees “.
This disgusts me and should cause the mass resignation of everyone responsible- including the installed cabbage head.
The people aiding the refugees are also complicit. Americans first
Train Wreck of decisions by those in charge continues unabated.
ALL of the airports are closed down now?
And it sounds like they’ll be depending on the Turks to re-open them at some point.
Maybe they never should have shut it down . Keep it operational for the afghan public to get flights out, and evacuate their own thru Bagram. Not rocket science.
Everyone keeps saying all that weaponry, some 86 billion worth of weaonry, was left for the Afghans, or sold/given to China and/or Russia.
Blinken, of all people, knows the truth, and is praying Snake News will not figure it out.
86-plus billion dollars worth of arms was left for Iran.
Think about it. Who runs DoS, Intel, etc etc? What was Obama’s “legacy?”
Sure, China/Russia may benefit. But the main beneficiaries are Iran, and secondarily the Muslim Brotherhood.
Nobody fired yet???
By design
By turning away Americans who make it to the airport & instructing host nations not to receive them & dragging an interpreter off the plane who had an extremely difficult time making it to the airport, i think i am beginning to understand the reason.
Interpreters and Americans
living in Afghanistan know the language.
I believe that is why they don’t want them in the USA. They could become intelligence gatherers.
They could talk to the press about any cash exchanges that they witnessed/facilitated.
War Room is on live now.
Milley had a national address as a mea culpa for going for a walk in the park with Trump but he and others remain silent after thirteen Marines are blown up and we give away $85 billion in high teck military equipment to the Taliban and Isis. And once again the republicans are standing by hoping to take political advantage when the carnage is over.
Nothing wrong with republicans criticizing the commie dems, they deserve it.
by standing by, you mean, just standing there, right?
The friendly temperate mood of Toad Todd’s questions indicates that everyone in the Biden admin, that is responsible for this Kabul slaughter, is going to get away scot free as usual for Dems. If it was P Trump that caused this death and carnage, the MSM would all be popping blood vessels during their vicious condemnatory rants against him and politically organized protests would be encircling and threatening the WH demanding an impeachment or a resignation.
The anger and concern about the millions of unknowns crossing the southern border has been diverted by this despicable bombing, so floods of immigrants will be entering the USA from the south and now the east.
The deaths of the 13 military service members is heart wrenching but the people that caused these deaths will not be held accountable if the Democrat’s past is any indication.
The “HEART-warming pictures of Marines tending to Afghani children” indicates admirable kindness and compassion in the person cradling the infant. But does it also indicate that trained soldiers did not fully comprehend the danger they were in and the cruelty of those that wanted to kill them. A kinder and gentler military that is in the middle of a hellhole does not seem to be a wise or compassionate strategy in the end. They should be on full alert and trust nobody beyond their fellow comrades that are in equal danger. These brave caring soldiers were given a care giver role in the middle of a Taliban hell on earth.
Vin Diesel as Ranger Private Carpazo who did not release the child as ordered and was shot by a sniper
That image is from the scene where the US troops were working when they got hit? — This really, really stinks. This is all but surely — evil at play…
I believe the whole Leaving Afghanistan Debacle was – planned – to give cover to sending BIden into retirement – which I believe he was always aware of. —- We had virtually no info on this Bombing, so I did not attribute it to — part of the conspiracy. —- I still have little info – but with a picture like this —– yes —– I think it likely – those troops were — sacrificed for this Kabuki Theatre….
From the start, a couple of tidbits raised eyebrows — The Location of the attack + the number of US Killed + Wounded.
Why was such a large number of US GIs put in a stationary posture outside the security perimeter? Why were they put in a static position —- among the mobs of unknown Afghans in a desperate situation?
If security had deteriorated to the point —- Afghan and/or Allied Forces — could not secure —- that very short stretch of road between 2 tall fortified walls — running between the Baron Gate + that Airport Gate ——– if security had degraded that far —- why the Hades would you put a large number of American Troops in a stationary position outside the current perimeter defenses…? Why not have Afghan Troops do whatever assignment you had for the GIs + put the GIs – if needed – on the side of the perimeter that was safer if you needed them to perform whatever role….? If that many US Troops were not mobile + sent to provide safe passage to Americans + others you want inside the airport ground — why the Hades have them out there in far easier harms way if the security situation had collapsed….????
—- Well – not only did you not have all Combat Specialists doing something to push forward the perimeter —- you had — Women holding Babies……..!!!!!!!!
This really really really really stinks to high heaven……
Can you dream up a better Propaganda Tool for ——- ginning up —– Patriot + American + other —- Disgust + Anger —– over how badly the Afghan Debacle is going…..????
God, I wish I were wrong….
But the people running this overall Regime Change Operation they began with a Bioweapon out of Wuhan — really are — this — Evil….
Not the right posture for a combat zone, particularly in an airport left undefended.
1000% correct. — But – will THIS too be chalked up to – “ooops” — that the Leadership is simply – Stupid or Incompetent – like the whole debacle has been…?
“Our Experts are just stupid. They had no clue Afghanistan could collapse this fast. They need to be fired…!!!”
No — They need to be — KILLED. They need the Death Penalty.
This Debacle was not only a Predictable Likelihood that needed to be prepared for — it is HIGHLY likely – it is the Outcome they PLANNED FOR…. That this is what they wanted as the cover for sending Biden into retirement + getting new “leadership” for the next phases of this Regime Change Operation they launched with Covid in late-2019…
Does anyone really believe —– the Leadership on the ground does not know —- that sending a unit like this outside the walls — if the security situation has deteriorated this far — is like making them — sitting ducks….?
If the security situation had deteriorated to the point — they had to use Helicopters to — airlift people —– from the Baron to the Airport Grounds……. Good God in Heaven…..!!!!
If you only knew how close the Baron is to being inside the outer perimeter of the Airport Walls to begin with…….!!!! your mind would be as boggled as mine….
If things were THAT BAD —- why the Hades would you put such a large # of US GIs in a stationary position — beyond that outer perimeter…….???
Now we have images of female members of the unit holding little babies………..
Good God in Heaven, please step in to save us from the EVIL that is THRIVING + laughing at us right now….
Is this an example of the new woke military? I certainly don’t blame the dedicated Marines that died. But dying like this does not serve the USA. It does the opposite.
The “grunts” are required to follow orders and this stunning military laxity in this dangerous and chaotic location must have been acceptable to the officers in charge or they were ordered to allow it for a “Cradling Babies in a Hellhole” photo op etc.
Exactly! It’s like the way our ICE agents have been relegated to similar roles on the border. The feminization of American might continues without relent. I don’t want to see pics of our soldiers in childcare roles!!!!
I have no problem with female (or male) soldiers helping little babies.
I want the people who gave the orders to have that done —— outside the outer defense perimeter of the Airport when the security situation had collapsed ——- to pay the Death Penalty for their participation in this Kabuki Theatre.
The Baron Hotel is virtually attached to the defensive perimeter of the airport. It’s RIGHT THERE. But, they had to use helicopters to airlift people from the Baron to the Airport days before the bombing. — That boggles the mind.
If the Security situation is — that bad —- and you send a unit with female soldiers who are mixing with Afghans in a chaotic situation and holding little babies ——- you —- deserve —– to —— die…..
You make an excellent point Ocelot.
These photos of our military cuddling small Afgan infants show a military that have no idea that they are about to be stabbed in the back by their American leaders.
If they did they would be huddled together in a circle with their weapons drawn and all of their protective gear on.
Is this what our troops were doing when they were slaughtered, tending babies instead of making sure they and their fellow Marines and Soldiers were safe?
Quite possibly.
Everything seems arbitrary! Every single statement, every emotion, every facial expressions seem feigned for th purpose to sell an optic. Hell, I might even go on to say that this terrorist bombing was planned by the CIA for this specific purpose, then again that is crazy, but at this point anything is possible. Nothing that these jokers tell or expressed is believable any longer! The longer we keep fooling ourselves into believing and putting our faith in feckless leadership without leaving our comforts of our couches and Fox TV’s the worse its gets. Grow your garden!
This is why people were angry on 1/6. Everyone knew this was the kind of shit we would have to deal with.
Affectations have been very useful to Biden during his entire political career but they might not be enough this time.
He will lose some of his dopey voters, which at his age is irrelevant, but he won’t lose his job because he’s still a useful idiot that can absorb all the blame for all the carnage the JoeBama policies cause.
Marine battalion commander RESIGNS after he was relieved of his duties for slamming his superiors over botched Afghanistan exit
Scheller said in the video that his resignation would be effective ‘now’ though acknowledged that there’s administrative paperwork that needs to be filed for him to properly resign.
‘But I am forfeiting my retirement, all entitlements. I don’t want a single dollar. I don’t want any money from the VA, I don’t want any VA benefits,’ Scheller said, claiming that he was forgoing more than $2 million in pension benefits by leaving the service.
In the video, Scheller also appeared to direct a vague threat toward senior military leaders – who he said should be given the money from his pension.
‘I think that money should go back to all the senior general officers because I think they need it more than I do – because when I am done with what I’m about to do, you all are going to need the jobs and the security,’ he said.
The Marine said that he ‘would have gone back into the rank-and-file’ if his superiors had just said ‘Yes, mistakes were made.’
He said that he was trying to get senior leaders to ‘accept accountability.’

Here is Lt Col Scheller’s full statement about retiring.
Lt Col Scheller demands accountability, and the rats promptly move his cheese.
The entire US government must now work from a Who Moved My Cheese organizational model. Rule number 1: there is no accountability in a WMMC organization. Expect accountability=plan on your cheese moving. (Jabs for jobs works off of the same principle.)

for these crimes are given a swift and righteous justice from God. Every day folks.

Words… I had enough of words.
Harsh actions or nothing. Arrest people and destroy them like they did to those around Trump or nothing.
They can shove their words where the sun doesn’t shine.
Actions, only.
From th e very start of this debacle, my gut told me – this is it – this is the Cover they are going to use to get who someone they always wanted into the White House. Since that first moment of this crisis – there have been plenty of tidbits telling me — yes – this is it. This is what they had planned all along. It’s one of the reasons they let Biden have his last fling at pocketing a campaign $ war chest…
I know how cynical + demoralized that sounds…
Did you notice what they did in 2020…?
I knew as soon as the 1st Covid Hype began at the very end of 2019 – they are Deadly Serious about 2020 being a watershed year in Civilization. They really mean that they are going to do something about “Climate Change.” They are deadly, deadly serious…..
I knew – there was Zero % Chance – they’d allow Trump to win a 2nd Term. They would kill him or steal it + a look around said – they are going to Steal it. You can see the tell-tale signs they’ve already been getting in line all sources of Potential Power in the Institutions that might stop it….
The tell-tale signs are out there now that — my gut is correct. — They are putting on the scene of this Kabuki Theatre in which – Biden goes into Retirement – laughing all the way – to count his latest gotten gobs of $ – while they put in the Oval Office – the face they wanted to be attached to ———– the next, far more deadly + serious —- stages of this long prepared — Regime Change Operation aimed at Civilization itself.
I don’t care about Conspiracy Theory!! labels anymore.
Everyone will be one after a couple more years.
They are really doing it…… Look at Australia. Look at New Zealand. — Look back at 2020. Look at your kids having to wear masks all day long at school. Look at the needles they are preparing to force you to shoot into their arms….
They are really doing….. They weren’t joking…. They weren’t posturing… They weren’t day dreaming in all those UN + Think Tank papers over the years about Over-Population’s Doomsday…..
Very true Iggy, I was afraid they would kill Pres Trump but he is still here.
As you point out LOOK at Australia and New Zealand.
These are not behind the Iron Curtain old time broken down commie countries.
These are once proud independent populations who were born and bred to be independent fighters and rebels.
Gone, the amazing fore fathers and mothers of these people would not recognize them as the children and grand children of the settlers are hauled off to “camps” by wimpy weenie leaders.
If you start from a premise that — the powers that be — have for a very long time considered – the Greatest Stumbling Block to what they wanted to accomplish on a Planetary Scale — the American People + the Spirit that makes America what it has been —– SO MUCH that looks so stupid in one light —– starts to make a whole lot of sense….
For example — why would the movers + shakers in the US + England + West —- finance both the rise of 1930s Germany + the Leadership of the Communists at the early stages of the Russian Revolution?
Why finance those two very different sides….? What did Hegel teach…..?
The rise of the Middle Class + Representative Democracy as the Industrial Revolution set in motion the unavoidable death of Feudalism 1.0.
The powers that be have been working with great patience + long-term planning —– to get us to Feudalism 3.0….
Honestly, it worries me a tiny bit that they’ve allowed him to continue to be the Face of the Opposition.
If Trump had fought the hard fight to — Drain the Swamp + publicize the crimes of prior Governments – both D and R —
— and if Trump had not Fast Tracked the development of the Covid Vaccine —- I wouldn’t be even a tiny bit worried….but…..I am….
More platitudes – they say we’ll go back later and get Americans, it’s OK we gave lists of American’s names to the Taliban, ISIS-K is only focused on Afghanistan…
It’s as if they are getting ahead of the news cycle which be be using terms like “Americans left behind” and “hostages” in a few days.
45 got impeached over a phone call. This moron should be up to impeachment number 7 or so but the GOP are feckless dick heads.
Imagine the parties reversed at mo. PDJT wouldn’t have a moment to draw a breath.
I hate the GOP more than I hate the Dems. Much more, much much more.
The democrat, “You’re not going to pin this sh!t show on me!”
same here –
everyone talking about Biden resigning, fire Austin, Milley, Blinken –
but the person I want to see fired is Ronna McDaniel, followed by Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy –
of course, they – McConnell and McCarthy – would say, “YOU can’t fire us!”
Dear God, I am praying for some KIND of swelling up of the American disgust at what Congress has allowed to happen in Afghanistan and any members of Congress/the Senate move to have McConnell and McCarthy removed from their “leadership” positions.
Even President Trump had some duds in his administration. The problem in this stolen and fake “administration ” is that no one but a demonic evil criminally intent individual would serve in it. So what you see is this garbage passed off as humans. All of them, every single one is a traitor.
A view from Australia: ‘He’s finished’. Joe Biden ‘cannot survive’ fallout over Afghanistan withdrawal.
Is this the Australia who has built “camps” for the naughty people who will not vax and violently rounds up people who do not obey the new Almighty Health Czar?
Who is Australia to talk about America.
and mcarthy. what about that back stabbing rino weakling.
Complete fail Antony.
When do Winkin’ (K), Blinken, and Nod (JB) visit the troops injured by the blast?
I want to see them visit every single one.
Does anyone have a link to a video of the entire dignified transfer?
We are living in an episode of Kiefer Sutherland’s classic series 24…
…in which it was typical for a plot to show bureaucrats fighting among themselves and jockeying for power during the chaos of a terrorist attack to destroy America.
At times the bureaucrats seemed to care only about their internal power struggles, and the terrorists were only a catalyst for ruining another bureau or department, while Jack Bauer and his (few) allies were often on their own and thwarted by their own superiors from stopping the terrorists quickly and efficiently.
And so…how many ISIS/Taliban/etc. terrorists are embedded among these refugees coming to America?
Undoubtedly, yes, the information came from our new “partners”…
THE TALIBAN!
Sometimes I feel so disheartened by the deep deep corruption in our government. I feel like they have all the tools to keep us silenced and afraid.
Hold on there, Li’l Lady! 😉
NOBODY silences a real American or makes us afraid of anything!
Anyone who goes silent because of fear has chosen to do so!
Otherwise, lace those boots up and lace ’em up tight, we got a war to win!
We are looking here. As the military pharma vaccine distribution is working perfectly.
go search any country, and read how they talk of vaccinating their people.
Humans are getting these shots (lining up) and accepting them in record time. a year of covid media and neglect of the vulnerable.

If I had a My Pillow right now I’d use it to suffocate Biden. Poet Justice.
T.S.H.H.T.F.
The focus needs to on the Obama – Biden connection.
We absolutely cannot allow Biden to be the fall guy and team Obama swoops in a savior.
As Trump says, it’s not Biden, it’s a cabal behind him. i.e. Team Obama.
Obama is just a CIA controlled and groomed tool, imo.
Team CIA/$tate needs to include Harvard Kennedy School, especially the Belfer Center. This takes it back to the graft of the splitting up USSR’s assets. Hits Clinton, Gore, Talbott, Hill, Sullivan, Alperovitch, L. Jean Camp, Richard Ledgett, John Carlin, the Moscow mayor, Larry Summers, Jeffrey Sachs, Len Blavatnik and Victor Vekselberg, Tom Steyer,etal.
So in response to this Sundance blog/article.
“Has there NOT recently emerged!”
A new voice of a challenging candidate to the entrenched powers to be in North Carolina?”
Play your cards right, get good political advice and realize the MSM media is already shoveling words into your mouth to paint you in a negative light.
Don’t let them win by playing into their hands and seek Providence on, “The best way forward.”
Meaning, in terms of any good foot soldier currently presented with an emerging chance of political opportunity.
I say, “Truly Seek Providence!”
That is when presented with the many faces of pitches of a political way forward to capitalize upon..
“Seek what maximizes actions that are a force multipliers for your acclaimed anthesis to the DC entrenchments.”
Always, remember you will be very much a junior member and more importantly a targeted outsider that will be presented with a hubris status designed to ultimately control you or set you up for failure.
Just saying!
If you are, “Truly humbled by the true nature of political power in Washington, DC.”
Meaning..
“If you are not devoid of understanding of this landscape.” Then you will have the means to evaluate of whether to a run for the Senate or House of Representatives.”
Of course, as suggested this means a Senate run requires analysis of aligned entrenched powers willing to bring you into the power fold and their desire to rock the boat.
Whereas, as a Representative, “You are likely only going find yourself a junior member, self identified as seeking to rock the boat and on the outside.
Not a situation designed to achieve change.
Part of me says, “Go for the Senate as a means for the greatest shake up.”
My crystal ball, “Says a run for the Senate is the way to go.”
Just remember my gut says, “The alignment of ducks is all important.”
Otherwise, seek the House.
Probably (hopefully!) Mr. Trump or Mr. DeSantis will be our next president. When that happens, I’d love to have that president appoint someone very tough as Secretary of State.
We need someone who isn’t afraid to fire State Dept. employees who don’t do as they’re told. Someone who will change things – so that the Secretary of State tells the State Department employees what to do, and not vice versa.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_State has a list of positions and departments within the State Department – from “Chief of Staff” to “Global Engagement Center”. And https://www.state.gov/about/ says the State Dept. employs 69,000 people (13,000 + 11,000 + 45,000).
I’d love the new Secretary of State to get the number of departments, and the number of employees, way down. And I’d love him/her to make sure that all remaining employees are actually needed, and that they’ll do as they’re told. You need someone very smart, tough, and ethical for this job.
If Mr. DeSantis became our next president, wouldn’t it be funny if he appointed Mr. Trump to be the next Secretary of State? I’d love to see Mr. Trump straighten them out! He’s smart, tough, and ethical. And he has experience dealing with them.
Let the Deep State, CIA and MSM do their best to smear Mr. Trump’s name. He’s already been through that as president, and he knows how to handle it.
I just finished reading another excellent analysis in anther blog that reinforces the “Team 1” and “Team 2” dynamic outlined by Sundance.
The article provides evidence that “ISIS-K” is a proxy force of the CIA – a force that the Taliban had to fight with support of the USAF! In essence ISIS-K provided the CIA with death squads.
Further the story reveals that CIA led Afghan intelligence forces “NDS” provided security at the Kabul airport and that most of the people killed in the suicide bombing attack were actually killed by gunfire from CIA lead security forces manning the guard towers.
The article is very lengthy but I provide below its conclusions. Link > https://www.moonofalabama.org/2021/08/how-the-cia-used-isis-k-to-stay-in-its-afghanistan-business.html#more
“Now onto the big question.
If ISKP is, as shown above, a CIA/NDS product and if the guards at the airport who killed the ‘most victims’ in the attack are CIA led Afghan special forces why did all this happen?
We may find the answer in another New York Times piece headlined:
Amid Afghan Chaos, a C.I.A. Mission That Will Persist for Years :
The poor CIA – pulled back into an expensive ‘counterterrorism’ mission in Afghanistan and elsewhere that was supposed to end until … well, until a CIA created terrorist outlet sent a suicide bomber to Kabul’s airport and until CIA led Afghan forces shot up and killed a large crowd of refugees.
One might also call this the deep state’s revenge for President Biden’s order to retreat from Afghanistan.
This is the same deep state that had brought us four years of ‘Russiagate’ when a different president was likewise inclined to call U.S. troops back home and to thereby limit the CIA’s fields of operation.
To make their point absolutely clear the NYT’s CIA authors in their last paragraph issue this not very vague threat:
White House pressure on the spy agencies? No, CIA pressure on the White House to let it stay in its Afghanistan business.
Very interesting. Thanks for posting.
And on this:
The poor CIA – pulled back into an expensive ‘counterterrorism’ mission in Afghanistan and elsewhere that was supposed to end until … well, until a CIA created terrorist outlet sent a suicide bomber to Kabul’s airport and until CIA led Afghan forces shot up and killed a large crowd of refugees.
Yeah, how about that, we know the CIA would just HATE to be drawn back in.
Some interesting info on the CIA and the Afghan opium trade here: https://www.williamengdahl.com/englishNEO23Apr2021.php
Twice in the last week, Biden, in a defensive posture, mumbled that we were leaving Afghanistan because 1) the original mission had been accomplished and 2) a need to concentrate our focus on other parts of the world that are troubling and one time he said, “China.”
Always good to ask cui bono – I never take things at face value.
At 29 min in the video posted at the link below, there’s an interview with a witness who inspected the bodies, and he also says the people died not from a bomb but from being shot at from above:

The Beast aka Hillary, no finer example.
“When a Secretary of State is appointed to the role as head of the agency, the arbitrary nature of the institution around them is accepted. In the modern political dynamic, the Secretary of State position is customarily given to a key political figure by the President as a payback or compensation for support. The SoS then uses their position for leisure, personal graft, a life of indulgence and a position to repay the interests of their tribe.”
Whatever happened to the millions upon millions funneled through the State Dept under her reign?
I’m interested in the technology transfers that occured, and how many American universities setup shop over seas (ie. Qatar, China, Afghanistan…)?
I don’t have an answer, but those are good questions. I would assume all of the major universities. The college and university system has been used as a tool against us for a very, very long time. They are great for funneling people, money, and technology. It is another sickening fraction of our country.
Now I have seen the daughter of John McCain – Meghan McCain – reminding everyone that HER FATHER warned everyone about Antony Blinken, during the Obama administration –
but at the time, it seemed to me “too little, too late” and was it just a perfunctory effort to demonstrate some opposition to the choice of Blinken?
Antony Blinken’s stepfather Simon Pisar was a survivor of the Holocaust and Mr. Blinken gave a very moving reminiscence about his stepfather’s experience –
and understanding and grasping his stepfather’s experience as emblematic of the persecution of all Jews everywhere who were lost or lost loved ones and sought to establish their own nation, where this could never happen again –
thus, they created Israel which became a nation in 1948 –
fast forward to many decades later, the Obama Administration: they wanted to HELP the Iranian regime in ways which Israel – Israel’s leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, found deeply worrisome –
so thinking back to those few years ago, as I recall, it seems that Antony Blinken was the architect of the “Iran Deal” wasn’t he? Iran which calls Israel (as well as America), “the Great Satan” . . . right? Iran, which wants to blast Israel from the face of the earth to be no more, Israel which Iran’s mullahs have worked so hard in so many ways to batter, to destroy.
So, why did Obama pick Antony Blinken who supposedly had credibility, didn’t he – by associating himself with the name and legacy of his stepfather, Samuel Pisar?
But the Iran Deal was to enable an even greater Holocaust than Samuel Pisar knew . . . and in helping to setup the Iran Deal, Antony Blinken would be enabling that new Holocaust.
Back to John McCain – was he really, truly concerned about Antony Blinken and if so, why was it at virtually the last minute and why didn’t he say what the problem was?
Lots there to unpack, but just quickly, Iran called Israel, “Little Satan,” and America, “Big Satan.”
And yes, Blinken (along with others, including Valerie Jarrett) was highly instrumental in crafting the Iran nuclear deal. (I think that this “deal” should have been of grave concern to people around the world, including here in the United States. Not just Israel, though obviously that tiny nation would be the first in line to be destroyed.)
There are reports that Pisar was Robert Maxwell’s lawyer, and that Blinken was at the Dalton School until 1971.
“The Biden administration is like a political Jenga, with Team Obama able to remove the blocks…”
Answer…remove Team Obama. The opportunity presented at his B-day party yet we sat on our hands.
Until they tremble in fear of us they’ll continue to control our lives.
This Blinken guy is in way over his head.
There is growing evidence that the recent drone strike on supposed ISIS terrorists was not that at all. It hit a vehicle carrying American sympathizers, 3 adults and 6 children under ten years old vaporized. If true the StateDept/CIA is apparently letting the Taliban pick our targets… and that is unacceptable!
