Team one (DoS/CIA) are really putting Team two (WH/DoD) on the defensive with this leak. [Pentagon video at bottom]
According to a Politico report, using leaked classified intelligence from the U.S. intel community, the Pentagon knew well in advance that a suicide bomber was coming to the Abbey Gate long before the explosion. According to the leak, the military knew where and when the attack was coming; and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin warned allies to avoid the area.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, Joint Chief’s Chariman Mark Milley, and CentCom Commander General Kenneth McKenzie all knew in advance the Abbey Gate was going to be bombed on Thursday, yet they kept the gate open.
(Politico) – Just 24 hours before a suicide bomber detonated an explosive outside Hamid Karzai International Airport, senior military leaders gathered for the Pentagon’s daily morning update on the deteriorating situation in Afghanistan.
Speaking from a secure video conference room on the third floor of the Pentagon at 8 a.m. Wednesday — or 4:30 p.m. in Kabul — Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin instructed more than a dozen of the department’s top leaders around the world to make preparations for an imminent “mass casualty event,” according to classified detailed notes of the gathering shared with POLITICO.
During the meeting, Gen. Mark Milley, the chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, warned of “significant” intelligence indicating that the Islamic State’s Afghanistan affiliate, ISIS-K, was planning a “complex attack,” the notes quoted him as saying. Commanders calling in from Kabul relayed that the Abbey Gate, where American citizens had been told to gather in order to gain entrance to the airport, was “highest risk,” and detailed their plans to protect the airport.
“I don’t believe people get the incredible amount of risk on the ground,” Austin said, according to the classified notes.
On a separate call at 4 that afternoon, or 12:30 a.m. on Thursday in Kabul, the commanders detailed a plan to close Abbey Gate by Thursday afternoon Kabul time. But the Americans decided to keep the gate open longer than they wanted in order to allow their British allies, who had accelerated their withdrawal timeline, to continue evacuating their personnel, based at the nearby Baron Hotel.
American troops were still processing entrants to the airport at Abbey Gate at roughly 6 p.m. in Kabul on Thursday when a suicide bomber detonated his explosive vest there, killing nearly 200 people, including 13 U.S. service members. (read more)
Pentagon Spokesperson John Kirby was furious about the intelligence leak when questioned earlier today. WATCH:
.
The U.S. State Department and Intelligence Community (Team 1) are really targeting the White House and Pentagon (Team 2) with this leak.
The deepest part of the Deep State is attempting to protect itself.

Sounding more and more like Benghazi.
Its sounding like one of the worst versions of benghazi
Benghazi x 1000.
The end is not yet in sight.
It won`t be a happy one.
Nor quick.
444 days at least.
It’s always Benghazi and always kept from sunshine
We are seeing the price paid for not bringing those who allowed Benghazi to happen to be held to account.
This has left Benghazi in the dust.
I’m so glad the people are finally starting to see the “Deep State” for who they really are.
Here’s something else & I’m not even a leaker, just exposing the truth with “Facts”.
It’s not law, yet! So Fight back! To all Employers, you better heed this!!
Under Titles 21 USC & CFR, the EUA is not law, there is currently no 564 statute and no Codification as of yet. CFR 564 is reserved but not codified.
On May 25, 2021 at the bottom of page #1, the FDA proves without any doubt what I am saying regarding EUA’s. It took me a bit to find it but I did. Here is the statement in quotations and the provided hyperlink (25 pages) to back up my claim.
“The contents of this document do not have the force and effect of law and are not meant to bind the public in any way, unless specifically incorporated into a contract. This document is intended only to

Seems the intelligence branch is more corrupt and evil than intelligent.
As CS Lewis points out, just enough Intelligence to enable the Evil.
It is, for sure.
Another Wow! that won’t matter…
Words cannot describe this evil.
I have the words but I am too civil to write them here.
*spit*
The parallels in intergovernmental tension (Intel – Military – Party) between this tyrannical US government, and the old Soviet Union, are stunning.
The Soviets had their triangle of mutual dislike (KGB – Red Army – Communist Party).
And here we have Foggy Bottom – Pentagon – The Uniparty.
It ultimately brought down the USSR. Let’s hope it does the same to these domestic criminals.
Oh, your mouth to God’s ear!
Just sooner than 70 years hence, please!
When it comes to leftwing factional disputes, you are watching liars confronting liars.
A battle of cretins where the only losers are everyone else.
So the enemy of my enemy ,is just another enemy…
All in alliance against us.
Not really. This revolution, which goes back hundreds of years and is predicated on the age-old conflict between the hand of man and the hand of God, otherwise know as history, carries within it the seeds of its own destruction. That is always so, and we are seeing the beginning of the unraveling.
Here is how T.S. Eliot described this moment in history: “The World is trying the experiment of attempting to form a civilized but non-Christian mentality. The experiment will fail; but we must be very patient in awaiting its collapse; meanwhile redeeming the time: so that the Faith may be preserved alive through the dark ages before us; to renew and rebuild civilization, and save the World from suicide:” (from his Notes on Lambeth, c. 1930)
And we the “unpitied sacrifice of a contemptible struggle.”
Boy, it must be a really totally messed up FUBAR , to cause this circular firing squad – I never thought I would see the day when the “home team ’ Dem. Admin . was torpedoed by an ‘Illegal’ intelligence leak . Will pigs be flying next ?
Looks like everyone is jockeying for position and trying to figure out who to throw under the bus!
All of them.
Every.
Last.
One.
Amen!!
The wheels on the bus go ,clomp, clomp, clomp,?
Circular firing squad indeed. This is getting very interesting with sacrificial lambs falling on their swords nearly daily. When does someone say ENOUGH and refuse to protect the usurper? Today would be good.
Friday would be an excellent day as everyone heads out for Labor Day Weekend.
It would be par for the course to ruin the last holiday weekend of summer.
Pigs are in the air as we speak, damn the torpedoes, full speed astern!!
Über-FUBAR-squared!!
Lol, let’s hope so. I need some flying pigs right now.
When are heads gonna roll?!?!?!
When you take them.
Burns meets with Taliban Monday, bombs go off Thursday.
Personal delivery of intel is always safer, since there is no documentation to leak.
Nice that they warned out ‘allies.’ But couldn’t be bothered to warn our own people.
They don’t work for “our people.”
Not that they could not be bothered. They had no intention of warning our own people.
And THAT is precisely why they should all be charged with murder in addition to Treason!!!
There was time to provide the TallyBan lists of names of Americans trying to get the hell out, however.

John Kirby was furious? Imagine how Boris Johnson feels right now with the US now blaming the UK for the gate being open.
Did the US inform the UK that it was too dangerous to send their citizens to the Abbey Gate? Or just tell the UK they wanted to close the gate?
Hold on, isn’t POLITICO Team 2 (WH/DoD)?
Sadly our troops have more to fear from their own leadership and government than they do the enemy.
It may come that WE have more to fear from some of our troops and their commanders
Indoctrinated in WOKEness, but not knowing their Constitutional duty.
How true it is…………
And when our troops realize who the real enemy is, may God give them the strength to disobey unlawful orders and take back our country from these genocidal psychopaths.
“Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.”

Team Obama runs the Biden White House from behind the scenes. But are Team Obama and Team 2 (the White House and Pentagon) one and the same team?
And what about Team 1, the U.S. State Department and the Intelligence Community, the latter of which has been identified by Sundance as the unaccountable Fourth Branch of Government? Are these two entities one and the same team?
What are the goals and objectives of these two — or is it three — teams, all of which remain completely unaccountable to the voters? What is it specifically each team intends to achieve for themselves as individuals and for the factions in government or political viewpoints they represent?
There are two teams, yes. Obama/Rice are the referees.
CW’s are messy affairs, snakes biting other snakes, no need to waste time on the snake biting, just shoot the snakes in front of you when the time comes.

As long as the Bidens get a cut to put in their crackpipe, it’s just another day in the hood.
Could it be the two teams working together to cause confusion?
More conditioning, more fear, demoralization, etc…All aimed at the American populace.
No one has paid any cost nor are they going too.
They have shown that our sons and daughters are theirs to let die, kids with masks and mask mania, and a not tested therapeutic that causes more harm than disease…These are the real issues.
Resist their propaganda.
This is my take. This is what my spouse tells me, too. Why would they leak this? Either to provoke or demoralize. What’s going on??
Respectfully, the gene therapy jabs are not therapeutics. HCQ and Ivermectin are therapeutics, and had they and others been utilized effectively, there could not have been the jabs. The differentiation between Therapeutics and Vaccines is huge in medicine!
Dont you just love it when Lucifers Children devour one another? I know I do. Its only Monday but this can only get better.
That is delicious for sure and odds are it will get a whole lot worse for them and better for us. Tasty!
not one has been devoured yet, they are still in power.
Sowing confusion and contradiction is what they do.
I wish but I’m not sure that’s what’s going on here.
Seems like the same game the Republicans and Democrats play when in reality they are just one big happy Uniparty throwing out more confusion.
Our government is at war with us, but lies about their intentions.
Translation…. He was lying by omission!
My eyes have been opened the past few years. I’m beginning to wonder if those left behind in Benghazi were intentionally left behind by their own government with the hope they would be killed along with the evidence that they were supplying arms to ISIS.
Any lower level white hats heroes left in the IC (LoL) should now leak what the CIA and DOS were really doing in Benghazi!! Make it look like the DOS and WH are leaking it.
There must be some horrible skeletons in the closet of the IC if they are that afraid of sunlight.
My gut is telling me that there has been massive corruption and theft of funds from those in government and the defense community during America’s time in Afghanistan. I’ll bet what is happening now is intentional to let corrupt afghan partners get captured and killed by the Taliban so there will be no evidence of that corruption. China probably also kicked in some money to let American military tech get captured. I cannot believe incompetence at this level exists, even from those in government.
I should clarify that they were not left behind like Afghanistan but there was a huge delay in helping Chris Stevens and the others rescued by the Annex security team. So strange to me that leadership would let fellow Americans die when they had the ability to help them.
The Taliban flying a BlackHawk with a person hanging from it. This is the entity we have surrendered to.https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E-DnV1bXIAEyBPA?format=jpg&name=360×360
Bin Ladin predicted this surrender. We all laughed.

They deem life with no regard. They cheapen it. This current administration is not far off from this, I fear. They cozy up to authoritarians like the CCP.
I’m to the point I need to ask this question crazy as it may be
biden laughing during inappropriate times about the Afghanistan situation
sleeping during the talk with the prime minister from ISRAEL ( his hands were moving)
checking his watch during the transfer of our hero marines
so many instances of in your face actions like the article above and then the talk that the biden people are blocking other patriots from getting Americans out. This doesn’t even scratch the surface of what he has done and is continuing to do everyday as anti American
Is he really this stupid and senile or is this an act so he can have an excuse
If it’s an act someone needs to step in and take him away so he can be helped
if not he needs removed immediately for the sake of our country. To me these are treasonous actions
Biden is the perfect President for the; Communist/Fascist/Totalitarians. No expects anything positive out of Biden. They can screw America and Americans all they can because whatever it is would be public expected typical dumbbell, crooked Biden.
Grammy850, I can only express my opinion and have little to back it up other than what Sundance and others here have provided, but in my humble opinion I believe the Biden is too far gone (mentally) to make any decision; if in fact, it actually is him we see and not a stand in for the real Biden.
It’s all he can do to read what others have prepared for him and coached him on and he doesn’t do that very well.
He has (or Jill did on his behalf) made a deal with the devil (Obama & the OTeam) and the best he can do is follow blindly what they want him to do; including who to call on in the “briefings” he reads to them. He has no mind or will of his own. I don’t believe he even knows what he is doing or the ramifications of his actions.
The OTeam on the other hand, see him as expendable and easy to eliminate when they no longer need him as a shield or need the illusion of someone else running the show. They can do whatever they’ve dreamed of and he’s there to take the blame; they can make him look a fool, a clown and he won’t know the difference and then he can be discarded like so much used garbage without a thought.
I think our country is in more danger than it has ever been in because neither Biden nor the OTeam have anything to lose. They can wreck havoc at will.
Just my opinion.
Good observation, Grammy, and good question. I have wondered the same.
First of all, Ovomit is really in charge here, and secondly, have we forgotten how many times he used his middle finger to “scratch his nose”?
They hate us. They want us dead–yesterday would be nice, but they’ll keep working on it until they succeed–or until we stop them!
Experts estimated that Biden was in mid-stage dementia over a year ago.
I am so ashamed of our woke military brass

Patton is rolling over in his grave.
They all need to be strung up. He didn’t deny it, he was miffed that someone leaked it. Since he didn’t deny it, he is complicit. All the brass at the Pentagon need to be charged, tried and either locked up for life or the gallows. This can not stand. They let innocent people die. Why is the question? Why?
They put in a guy that is ‘not all there.’ That gives everyone carte blanche.
Really wonder if there is no one person behind the scene?
As for Obama, pehaps he ‘checked out’ awhile back. ?
At least we can fully see it fir what it is. Oh and the irony of saying he won’t comment on unauthorized leaks.
Getting ready for the show Congressional hearings … with all the finger-pointing, these critters are going to be running out of fingers.
Could this be a way to shut off the Pineapple Run pipeline?
It’s encouraging (I guess?) to hear that they “take it seriously”. (I guess?)
What a bunch of dishonest, incompetent….
Oh!And he acknowledges that “we have to be as quick and nimble as they (TalleyBon) are…” Wow, that’s a serious (and new) requirement. I guess.
The TalleyBon is making demands of our military that they are acknowledging are more than they can do–so they have to up their game.
The lack of self-awareness is devastating to their presumptions about how their alleged PR comes across.
McKenzie is toast, but someone wants Milley and/or Austin out, too.
So, they let the gate stay open for the Brits . Our 13 wonderful young American soldiers plus the ones injured, were left out in the bomb zone. Can anyone imagine what anguish their families and friends are going through knowing THE Pentagon KNEW and did nothing!! God help us all and especially be with those families. Tears coming down…
There were news reports warning of an attack for hours prior to the attack.
Just think of those parents, siblings and immediate relatives learning that a son or daughter wants to join our all volunteer military. What conversations will this family have to that person?
“You want to join for what reason(s)? Do you think the people in Washington will have your back? Are you crazy? Did you see what happened in Afghanistan? Only a fool would trust the leaders of our military! We beg you not to join!”
I wonder which family will request or accept that Biden comes to their loved one’s funereal. My guess is not one, not one at all!
Oh, will those who seek to remember loved ones lost on 9/11 in New York City want Biden anywhere near that event?
I wonder why…
I wish we could fire them all, all the generals Chief Joints of Staff.
We probably don’t a real military general left who has not been contaminated by that ideology from hell.
Always felt we were expendable while in Vietnam. This proves it
So much evil. SAD!
thank you for your service.
your families at home sure didn’t think you were expendable.
Here is more to make your blood boil……. sickening

This might work out for the best if it results in an Alien v. Predator scenario where the teams of Deep State scum really start taking each other down.
There’s something in the air. Officers resigning, leaks showing the Taliban offered to hand over Kabul security to the US, now this sickening reveal that those young Marines did not have to die. …Biden is clearly seen as a liability by a faction of our spy services and military ( and how could they not). More to come…
“I don’t believe people get the incredible amount of risk on the ground,” Austin said, according to the classified notes.”
If that’s the case, why put the Marines and soldiers at the airport in un-secured areas, with no blast protection, and no pre-screening of individuals (never mind entire crowds) beyond a secure perimeter?
I don’t believe any of these back-and-forth leaks and accusations. I do believe our troops were put into a fatally compromised situation.
THIS WHOLE F****** GOVERNMENT SHOULD RESIGN. YESTERDAY.
It’s THEIR country (in their minds) and they see no reason to give it up now. And no one NO ONE is stepping up to show them that it’s not THEIR country.
What about Lt.Col Stuart Scheller!
Not a chance.
Their work is far from being accomplished.
Neither is ours.
Indeed. No one sacrificial puppet will suffice. The entire edifice is illegitimate.
“The U.S. State Department and Intelligence Community (Team 1) are really targeting the White House and Pentagon (Team 2) with this leak.”
It’s about time the U.S. State Department and Intelligence Community finally did something useful.
Cold anger and pain…
These traitors need to be walked out of their respective offices in handcuffs and shackles…Military tribunals, court-martials and executions.
They all should be fired. Every. Single. One. Of. Them.
No way JihadChinaJoe survives this…which I suppose is the plan. Next up: Heels Up (yet another puppet on a string).This country cannot afford to wait till next years mid-terms to make a dent in all of this sick BS!
Of COURSE we did! Did you really think otherwise??
It is hard for my heart to find ANY solace learning about the actions or inactions of these treasonous fools given that 13 of our wonderful young men and women, some about to be married, some expecting children and all Patriots were given no chance to survive through no fault of their own. Some of the comments on here seem to illustrate we have already forgotten the unbearable pain of all of these families, loved ones and senseless loss. 🙁
Joe owns this. Period
So do those who own Joe.
The deep state/Obama team has had it with Joe not resigning. They especially hate Jill because she convinced Joe NOT to resign and now we have a Jill against Kamala cat fight that Barack can’t get in between. I mean really, who would?
The time is now to get Joes old buddy Lindsey to make a deal with Jill against the marxists. The deal is for Old Joe protection he only gets with a purge of the all the radicals, reinstating some Trump policies, calling out the left for lying and deceiving poor Joe, cancelling the leftist legislation, and passing some republican bills so that Jill and Joe can respectfully retire after the midterms when Kamala has less than 2 years to serve. I think Jill hates Kamala so much she may take it.
THIS.
This makes the most sense. The plan was to get Joe to resign and let Harris take over. That plan is being resisted and now they are trying to force the issue.
Sundance level analysis!
Neither rats or roaches like it when you turn on the lights. It would appear the Pentagon and our intelligence agencies fall in line with the other vermin. They use “classified” as a cover for actions and decisions that they don’t want the public to know. They are attempting to hide their ineptness with a shroud of secrecy, the dumber the mistake the higher the classification. The actions of these people are criminal and their attempts at covering them up only compound the crimes.
