Democrats love war, even when they have to go looking for one. The New York Times is reporting that Joe Biden has signed a Defense Dept order authorizing 700 combat troops to redeploy to Somalia, reversing the Trump-era troop withdrawal.
WASHINGTON — President Biden has signed an order authorizing the military to once again deploy hundreds of Special Operations forces inside Somalia — largely reversing the decision by President Donald J. Trump to withdraw nearly all 700 ground troops who had been stationed there, according to four officials familiar with the matter.
In addition, Mr. Biden has approved a Pentagon request for standing authority to target about a dozen suspected leaders of Al Shabab, the Somali terrorist group that is affiliated with Al Qaeda, three of the officials said. Since Mr. Biden took office, airstrikes have largely been limited to those meant to defend partner forces facing an immediate threat.
Together, the decisions by Mr. Biden, described by the officials on the condition of anonymity, will revive an open-ended American counterterrorism operation that has amounted to a slow-burn war through three administrations. (read more)
Feed the Military Industrial Complex. It’s never enough. It always wants more. Money…and our blood and treasure. A pox on all of them.
More mayhem please.
Black Hawk Down is not supposed to have a ‘ part 2 ‘.
It’s a political campaign chess piece. Tough on jihadists, kill a few “leaders”.
Then down the line when there’s a massive terrorist attack in the US, the same characters will say it was an unprovoked attack on our homeland from the very hornets nest they couldn’t help but keep kicking.
Its coming. They’ve already arrived via the southern border.
FJB
Will the regime now ferry in ‘refugees’ from Somalia to the USA?
Will they be poor, desperate, fleeing families only, or will a terrorist or two come along?
God help us.
The guy who “lost” in the election had been Prez for a few terms, and was making great progress in fixing roads, ports,,etc, so people could make a living and have infrastructure.
And he was a Somalian NATIONALIST. Certainly can’t have THAT, can we?
For many reasons I suspect Hunter has given up his international advisor roles and is now employed (I use that term loosely) advising our military industries.
I worry for our men and women in the military. The DoD has hidden all the information on the adverse reactions from the forced jabs. The admirable whistleblower doctor has said the numbers are horrific.
The military
has purged and continues to purge their finest.
The military brass has been indoctrinating the troops with rubbish completely unrelated to the purposes of our defense.
The military is all hot to include mentally ill people (trans) in greater and greater numbers.
The military is headed by a traitor of the worst sort. Where is Milley by the way?
And now off we go with whatever troops we have, jabbed to the hilt, to one of the worst hell holes on earth. For what? This is out of the blue. I certainly have seen nothing anywhere about Somalia recently, and I read a lot. What is this really about I have to ask.
There’s something we are not being apprised of. And there is a rising stench getting stronger and stronger.
God please protect these troops as they depart to front the madness that has infected this entire administration.
I can tell you first hand they do not care about the heath and safety of our military. Personally know several that had heart issues and military docs still insisted on a second jab. They were able to get to a allergist (military med is not giving allergy tests ) to prove they had an allergic reaction, they were able to get a med exemption for 1 year, but now what’s coming down is the military are no longer going to accept outside med allergy tests, next year no exemptions. Oh and there was also Afghanistan , truly showed just how much they care.
I know they don’t, Mayflower. There are no Pattons today. And it’s a tragedy. A military not fit for purpose solely due to the Brass who have lost their minds and whatever honour they started off with, and who consider the men and women under them expendable. My view is that they disgrace those men and women…and themselves.
My son is a Navy vet. He makes attempts to use the perfectly useless VA. They are incompetent, lazy, inefficient, and downright dangerous.
For those men and women still serving, I can only despair for them. And pray for them, as all right thinking Americans with intact souls and hearts do. Blessings to you.
Once in the service, the soldiers are held as captives.
God, please protect those we love that are being subjected to this!
Just as you wrote Betsy, look at the huge increases in several medical diagnoses among military personnel since the government turned them into covid shot pin cushions:
https://www.ronjohnson.senate.gov/2022/2/sen-johnson-to-secretary-austin-has-dod-seen-an-increase-in-medical-diagnoses-among-military-personnel
I have young family members in one branch of service.
Each day I pray the Lord will protect them from unnecessary! man-dictated potential harm.
I pray with you, aDoozy, for His all powerful and encompassing protection. Monsters…all of them.
Ron Johnson would make a great president…Just saying. Not sure he would want it, though.
Funny that, isn’t it Betsy? Need a distraction? Just throw a dart at the map. Somalia, well it rings a bell, no? TPTB have NO problem at all with sending our kids to some third world, forgotten hell hole, just to distract us from the raping of our country.
The war here at home is on many fronts. Graft, corruption, crooked elections and on and on and . . .
No words, MidknightRambler…this exactly what it is now. As it ever was.
Can you imagine if your son or grandson has just received orders that they are being deployed to hell hole Somalia?
For what?
Horrible climate, decades-old tribal wars with demon warlords running the land, and that is just two things that make this order so egregious!
I will pray for the soldiers and their families.
I’ve got grandsons coming up to the age where they have to register. Trying not to…but I’m no different from any other mother or grandmother with lads the same age. Trying…failing.
My boy has to register next year, actually in about ten months. I’d register in his place if they’d take me. I’m old and mean. Poor lad’s high functioning autistic and naief in the ways of the world. He’d never make it.
I feel with you, AG. I truly do. Surely to our God he will be rejected based on this alone? I’ll pray so with you, sir.
Must be time to start importing more Somalis. Minnesota is waiting.
Have to offset all those people who won’t vote for the POTATUS.
The invading hordes are not just here to vote for Democrats. They’re meant to displace the white, Christian, middle class and destabilize all the foundational institutions that make this a sovereign nation. A clue: Klaus Schwab isn’t kidding when he says of the new world order that, “You will own nothing, and you will be happy.” They’re telling us what they’re doing — believe them! The war on us is not a spectator sport, or merely a topic for stimulating discussion.
They need the bodies for their army.
A Mule With No Name
I’ve been through Minnesota on a mule with no name…
No signatures, IDs, ballot trafficking games…
ilhan, lan, lan lan lan lan, lan lan lan, lan lan…
Clever and funny AF
Potraitorous
The dumbest us state.
These “ruling elite” are out of control. It’s becoming more ridiculous every day. But, he saved “us” — according to George W. Bush. “Us” meaning all of the greedy people destroying the country.
GWBush is easily the worse president of the 21st century and I’m sad to say I voted for him twice.
I was younger and didn’t know any better.
He was absolutely horrific, but I’d say obungo did more institutional harm.
Obunghole is advising Joe. It’s his third term.
Best thing I can say about Queen Hussein the M(most) F(fabulous) is the fact that he was the best firearm salesman in the history of the world.
I don’t see how you can say that, knowing all the damage Biden has caused in less than half a term. To hell with the Bush’s but there is no way in hell he’s worse than Biden.
They’re all on the same team, just sequentially installed as presidents of the puppet regime.
I never hated a President more than W, in all my life……..until he was replaced.
That goes for a lot of us. Sad.
Ditto.
Didn’t have much of a choice either. Bush or Gore, Bush or Lurch. Within the establishment’s system for who they let run for office, we often are left with closing between a snake and a weasel.
We get that in Florida for the senate race. We can vote Foam Boy or…Val Demings. Yay us.
I’m NOT voting for Rubio. He’s just a wh0re …Mediocre as Biden, and dumb, too.
Until NOW!
Worst GOP president. We didn’t have much choice, it was what the GOPe wanted.
Can’t let that climate change get out of hand.
What is the carbon footprint of 200 weapons flights to Ukraine ?
Is that before or after the weapons are detonated?
Great point!
Stolen elections have consequences.
The puppet regime wants more war.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 I will never get this.picture out of my head!!
Yep Clamela said we will work, but didn’t say what kind of work.
My chuckle for the day.
“Clamela” – hysterical. Thank you. };^D
“Working together.”
Joey “I-Wiggin'” Biden ‘n’ Ka’malatoe Harris, reprazen’in’ Davos, y’all! Holla (but not on Twitta, yo)!
She a “holl’atchagurl.”
This is offensively sleazy, but appropriately so.
I got my VD …I mean my VP Clamydia working in Southeast Asia right now.
This has nothing to do with terrorism.
I am heartsick over this news. I have a son-in-law in the military. He’s already served in 3 foreign countries, including Afghanistan.
I don’t think there will be a good outcome for our soldiers. We have an unelected commander-in-chief and inept, traitorous generals.
Now I have lots more to pray about.
I feel for you. I have two very young grandkids and can’t imagine what could be in store for them if we can’t throw these maniacs plans into full reverse.
Thank you, Jas. I appreciate your comment very much.
Sue, you have the most powerful weapon known to man . . . The prayers of a righteous woman avails much. Cover your SIL daily in prayer. And thank G_d daily for His answer!!!!
Thank you so very much.

Render Unto Caesar: A Most Misunderstood New Testament Passage
The Myth of Romans 13:
No, the Bible does not tell you to obey Bush.
There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights.
–Smedley D. Butler, retired United States Marine Corps Major General and two-time Medal of Honor recipient
I understand your prayers and anxiety, having been a military wife and military mother. May God bless your son-in-law and keep him safe.
I have a son who is getting out of the military in August, thank heavens. He also served in Iraq and was in Kosovo, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and other places for a few months each time.
Thank you for your touching comment. I really appreciate it.
God bless.
Thank God your son will be out soon, Belle.
May the good Lord continue to keep him safe.
Same here, I have a loved one serving, and he can’t wait for his contract to be up. My fear is he will be harmed before he has a chance to get out, vaxx aside.
Yes, that’s my fear too. Thank you for your comment.
I will pray for your son-in-law’s safety, Sue.
I have two young, close family members in the military, and my heart is aching.
I put them in the Lord’s hands each day When I pray.
That is the best thing you can do! And HE hears you!
Yes, thank you!
Thank you. I pray for all our soldiers. Yes, they’re in the Lord’s hands. Lately, I’ve found things are so much harder.
So we got out of Afghanistan to go into Somalia ?
Back into Somalia, what we going to re energize the war so Americans Elite can play.
The United States is two Countries now; Globalist “greens” and Nationalists “fossil fuel”. Presently the Globalist “greens” are in power of the United States government.
I’m ready to divide it, but the GGs will never be satisfied. They’d encroach and try to run the other side.
Sick, evil, greedy people.
It’s like two card Monty and the American people are the suckers
“We?”
These people are insane. These animals in power are so greedy that the feed through must be constantly sweetened with the blood of young Americans, lest they lose the treasure given to them by the military complex.
It really is an appalling thing. There should be a law that when they start another conflict, they MUST grab a rifle and man the post. Let them see and feel first hand what it’s like to have limbs blown off, if they are lucky to survive.
Personally, I don’t give a rat’s ass if other countries want to have conflict. Not our business. We are strong enough to stand alone against the whole world if we have to. As long as we keep our resources here in the USA. Everything else is fear mongering bullshit.
We got out of Afghanistan so we could go into Ukraine & Somalia.
Fixed it for you.
FUBAR
I read they just installed a new leader yesterday , and today we get this.
They must have installed the “wrong” one
You get to choose between Mohamud and Mohamed.
What’s not to like?
Interesting on how he got elected.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-61438047
That is just a dandy story. No more American lives lost for these crap holes
Where are the Republicans?
Haven’t you been reading Sundance’s articles over the years? There is only the uniparty and patriotic Americans.
And patriots stay home and defend the border and bother no one, as the Founders wrote.
“Why of course the people don’t want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don’t want war: neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or fascist dictorship, or a parliament or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peace makers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”
― Hermann Goering
Used to..not anymore.
On the run, Gaol. Or Somalia.
I sure don’t know what’s to happen next.
But normally sane appearing folks are getting really tense..
Cheers!
In bed with the Dems. They’ve been running interference on Trump and every other challenger. McConnell and Nancy are besties.
Your sarcasm is noted.
Mostly right on board.
I have been asking that for years. Useless. Maybe a third party is overdue.
It’s the same old stupid games by the OBiden Regime. Remember this arms dealing charade? :
Rampant piracy off the Somali coast, like latest🚨🚨🚨 hijacking of a Ukrainian (👀 👀 👀) ship carrying heavy weapons🚨🚨🚨 can be likened to so-called ‘blood diamonds,’ the illicit trafficking in gems used to finance civil wars in West Africa.

I am neither a warmonger nor a pacifist but I would resign rather than going to fight on foreign soil more than 5000 miles from home.
A US military presence in East Africa could be justified by an Entebbe-like raid on hostiles but ground forces should be kept out of peacekeeping missions.
We pay the UN substantial funds to assume this role. There are several African countries whose armies would be better suited to maintaining peaceable relations on their own continent.
At one point our Marines were in Africa to ward off and discourage islam from building up in the region. Apparently it has worked well, how much money has been laundered through that plan?
There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights.
–Smedley D. Butler, retired United States Marine Corps Major General and two-time Medal of Honor recipient
It’s one thing to ruin the American economy with massive money printing, now it’s back to sending American lives back into useless conflict. Guess Ethiopia and Nigeria are next.
My bet is Libya or Tunisia.
The map suggests we have troops in Ukrainian, which is unlikely.
We *do* have a military presence in Lithuania and Romania, along with several bases in Poland.
Ought they rather to be redeployed to the southern border?
Perhaps the question should be recast. How many Tactical Battalion Groups do the Mexicans have?
“The map suggests we have troops in Ukrainian …”
Not at all
When I zoom in on it, the map suggests to me that we have troops in Eastern Poland
I suspect the map was made with close attention to detail … particularly THAT detail
Then the map is accurately detailed because we have four forward bases there.
The Brits have also committed to placing troops in Poland, having learned from their unfortunate mistake of 1939 that the Poles are the proverbial canary in the coal mine.
If WWIII erupted, Poland would be at its epicenter.
Thx for the extra detail, Christian
Fishnet Jill took packets of ketchup for our people in Romania, the supply was running out. Wasn’t that nice of her?
so they don’t have to eat chips (french fries) with mayonnaise?
Did Hunter Biden deploy with the units …………………. oh wait……………..
Can’t believe I’m saying this, but …Conservatives need to get their sons and daughters out of the military. Let the Dems send their own kids.
Doing that will just cause the Democrats to expedite their push to bring back the draft.
Then it’s time to circle back to burning draft cards to stay out of globalist wars.
…and singing “Alice’s Restaurant” when you appear at the Selective Service center.
Don’t ask me how I know about such details.
Come to British Columbia,
If you get drafted..I have met here in B.C. over the years, not all were cowards.
F#$k I despise our leaders..our sons thirty or thereabouts would never serve, but would die for their families. Our
Grandsons will be “ educated”
While I honour the military greatly.
Our “Western Leaders “ are psychopaths and revel in the blood and mayhem of others.
My Grandfather, and both my wife’s parents served in WW 2.
My Grandfather on minesweepers in Scottish waters, and my in laws in the Royal Canadian Air Force.
All are long dead now, and would be weeping if still alive at what has become of our Western Nations.
Cheers!
I am glad my parents are not alive to see all this crap. They both served in WWII, it would crush their souls.
Might not be such a bad thing at this point.
U.S. “foreign policy” is truly sinister.
Four flicking years of peace a prosperity.
We ain’t done yet..average Joe and Janes are being awakened.
There may never be a revolt, but governments around the world are being ignored by their decent citizens.
MSM, Republicans, Dems.
One man President Trump tool all the slings and arrows.
The rest..cowards.
We all expected the regime to start as many wars as possible but how many of us have read about the method to be used for the final takedown of the United States? Read this, it will spell the end for us when they release the next virus. The regime is about to hand US sovereignty over to the pro-Chinese WHO, run by Tedros a known communist and terrorist. What the F could possibly go wrong???????????? This is TREASON, there is no other descriptor.
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/18534/who-death-trap
I agree. This is treason, and we must stop it.
I’ve already called my senators the last 2-3 days. I’m trying to do it everyday. This is at the top of my list- which grows longer by the day.
WHO amendments, Ukraine, energy, the border, inflation, CRT, ESGs, now Somalia…..
Is there anything JB has done that has done any good at all for the USA and US citizens?
I thought not.
“DNA-specific pathogens”
Engineered to kill the round-eyes but not the Chinese
Those 23-and-Me vanity databases?
They’ve got ’em already
Those US DNA databases tapped by law-enforcement to identify criminals?
They’ve got ’em already
There’s probably nothing of substance in terms of DNA data that China doesn’t already have, courtesy of their hackers
If that happens every “round eye” that is still standing should take out every Chinese they come across. You’re dead any way. And write “Touchable” in their blood. There is nothing special about Hans, other than they overpopulate everywhere they go.
Does anybody know what the current reenlistment rate is? I’ve been searching but I suspect its being hidden. Perhaps not. Thanks.
Joe definitely needed to limit any type of air strikes considering the last time he droned innocent children and citizens.
That being said, he shouldn’t be sending our troops back. He’s trying so hard to achieve something and trying to rob the taxpayers at the same time.
Come on man, I have always sent your kids to die in wars for forty seven years, you think I was going to change?
Signed
Slow Joe Biden
Normally, you would allow your senile grandfather to order from a menu by himself, but here we allow an installed senile ‘president’ to make serious directives that impact people’s lives.
it’s not him that’s making the decisions
puppet … strings … command center at Kalorama …
Biden is told what to say and when to say it.
I do not believe Biden knows day to day if he’s President, Vice President, or a
guest playing house in the White House.
Watching the Easter bunny video and the video when Biden looks sad because he
can’t get Obama’s attention (Obama completely ignores Biden even when Biden taps
him on the shoulder) it’s obvious Biden is confused, agitated and pathetic.
Where the hell is Jill Biden?!
How is this not a shrieking message from our own government and their co-conspirators that they can’t tear down this country fast enough? The duped masses who eagerly support and comply with all the obscene diktats are complicit in this reign of terror. God have mercy on us all.
we comply out of fear of harm from the Federal State
The delusional cohort is in full cry supporting the regime. Those who see the menace are rightfully afraid.
Afterthought: And a courageous few are taking defensive political action — putting themselves on the line. God bless them and keep them.
When did CONgress pass an AUMF?
What I am wondering – did Congress okay this deployment of troops and provide funding for them and the defense contractors who will be there in a ratio of 3:1?
ha ha ha ha ha ha
what a quaint concept
the days of Congressional approval for wars are long gone
To quote Austin Powers:
“I’m sorry, baby, but that train has sailed”
The first question to ask is: Does Somalia have oil?
If so, Biden will be deploying his son Hustler to Somalia because of his extensive oil and gas expertise acquired in Ukraine.
https://www.theafricareport.com/49364/somalia-the-new-oil-and-gas-frontier/
When I first deployed to Mogadishu in ’92, there were several locals that were US university trained that accused us of being there specifically for this reason.
So, it’s climate friendly to extract oil and gas from a third world hell-hole, but not to extract the US’s very own extensive reserves. Got it.
Is it time for these troops to be brought back? I think yes.
EXCLUSIVE: Audio Leaked of Chinese Military Meeting Discussing the Invasion of Taiwan and Defeat of Regional US Forces
By Joe Hoft
Published May 16, 2022, at 11:30am
A Secret recording of a Chinese military meeting planning the invasion of Taiwan and the defeat of regional U.S. forces has reportedly been uncovered.
(This information comes from a trusted source. Any new information will be provided when available.)
By Lawrence Sellin, Li-Meng Yan and Ding-Gang Wang
In the past week, in response to the instruction of the “Central Military Commission of the State Council” in Beijing on “transitioning to a wartime system,” a meeting took place involving senior officers of the People Liberation Army’s Guangdong Military Region of the Southern Command and the principal officers in Guangdong Province administration and the regional Chinese Communist Party committee.
Guangdong Province alone has been ordered to mobilize massive resources for an invasion of Taiwan.
1. 1,358 units of various types with a total of 140,000 personnel; 953 ships; 1,653 unmanned aircraft; 20 airport terminals; 6 shipyards; 14 emergency mobilization centers; grain and oil depots, hospital blood bank, etc.
2. 15,500 military experts of various disciplines.
3. 64 10,000-ton ro-ro ships, 38 aircraft, 588 trains, and 19 civil facilities such as airport docks.”
China intends to apply the lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic towards mobilization and control of its population to meet wartime objectives.
“Convert the experience and practice of the prevention and control of the new corona epidemic in previous years into measures for social prevention and control during wartime, to ensure that the people’s production and life are orderly, the overall social situation is stable, and to create a favorable environment and conditions for a strategic victory.”
The military-political commissar has been ordered to use Chinese assets, both domestic and international, and the political influencers that the Chinese Communist Party has cultivated in the West to support its coming war in Asia.
“Huang (Shan Chun) political commissar (major general, Guangdong Military Region): overseas mobilization, decisive victory against Taiwan. Overseas Chinese, state-owned enterprises and private enterprises, cooperation with the Belt and Road institutions, covering the army with the people, supporting the army with the people, high-end chip machinery, special materials, oil, grain and minerals and other bulk strategic materials, crack the wartime US-West alliance, and protect the military. ‘All resources in the world are for my use’, foreign aid and domestic aid.”
While the Biden regime simultaneously destroys the American economy, risks nuclear war by sending billions of dollars to protect Ukraine’s borders rather than our own, and while the U.S. military undermines its own readiness through Woke policies and useless vaccine mandates, China prepares for victory.
I bet the politically-contaminated U.S. intelligence agencies have no clue about China’s war plans because they are too busy waging their own war on patriotic, law-abiding Americans.

An amphibious assault on Taiwan would be repulsed with inordinate losses accruing to the invading force.
The Taiwanese are not stupid and have been preparing for such an eventuality.
What are the chances the CCP has infiltrated the Taiwanese institutions to the same degree it has infiltrated ours?
You might just see a surprise surrender instead of a fight.
I’ll bet they have nukes.
China has almost unlimited forces to sacrifice against Taiwan. They are not worried about political blow back about casualties.
Isn’t that what Wag the Dog is all about? When domestic policy backfires on the folks in charge that it is some unwritten rule to start a war overseas?
Swish, swish, swish.
Goes the slush, slush, slush.
We’ve gone from gaslight Jen, to good night Irene.
How sad to see Doocy, is in on the scripted messaging.
She is reading a script, to his questions.
Ma Kettle: The White House press briefings are, by definition, scripted.
wink.wink.
No, Doocy’s not “in on it”
It’s just that they do a good job of assembling that notebook
Hearing keywords, like “Biden tweet … inflation would disappear if the rich paid their fair share”
(nonsensical … a non-sequitur … “it does not follow”)
She simply flips to the tab that says “Equity … Social Justice … Rich pay fair share”
And reads the pre-written narrative
Totally ignoring the point of Doocy’s question about “how would that lower inflation, as Biden claimed?”
For pretty much any question that’s NOT pre-arranged with compliant fellow traveller reporters … but is instead incoming from hostiles (like Doocy, anyone not on the program) …
They can still flip to a tab that they WANT to talk about and ignore what they don’t want to
— Equity (so-called)
— Rich pay ‘fair share’
— Inflation a result of price-gouging
— By rich corporations
— White supremacists bees all raycissss an’ sheeeeit
— etc
It’s not that Doocy is ‘in on it’
It’s just that they’re so damn good at it
It’s long been the norm that you don’t answer a question, you use it as a springboard to talk about what YOU want
But they’ve mastered and perfected it to the point they leave rubes and GOP-ers (and GOP rubes) …
… simply flat-footed … outgunned
Now, Doocy’s capable of pinning them down if permitted to keep questioning
But he’s not … permitted, that is
So they’ve mastered deflecting from the questioned topic to their topic of choice
And they’ve mastered the brush-off / kiss-off after they’ve had their turn
And you don’t get another turn (“We’ve got to move on, Peter”)
You could beat ’em in a fair fight
But they don’t allow a fair fight
EVER
Republicans pretty much get outgunned routinely
Because Dems can rig the game when they’re in charge
And often even if Repubs ‘control’ the White House, Senate, Congress, etc
They still lose because Repubs are not really “allowed” to “control” the institutions
There’s the phrase “deep state” for a reason, and Repubs never get to steer the wheel
It’s not permitted
Talk about affirmative action. Eye Roll.
Agreed
But she did better than you might think
She successfully diverted Doocy without answering his question
And offered him no more chance to pin her down
She swatted him away successfully
Let’s swat her back to Haiti.
They are desperate for a “rally round the flag” bump in the polls. Stenny Hoyer told us so last week. Our money. Our blood. What does it matter to them? Nothing. Remember their motto: BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. it’s a disgrace.
What grown-azz man goes by “Stenny”? SMH!
So Brandon is trying to protect China’s interests now?
The Biden admin needs to kill them some bad terrorists so they can tout about how great they are and get there poll numbers up.
Let me guess, the CIA gets to play off this move to increase black ops to help create/launder funds to “contractors”.
The uniparty loves them some war, funny how most Americans are probably “isolationists” at heart.
How do the Democrat voters reconcile the pro-war position? Oh wait, they’re incapable of identifying counter position and simply ignore them as long as CNN, MSNBC, et al. don’t mention them.
i dont think many Democrats voted for Biden.
Well someone has to protect China’s interests in Somalia.

Maybe the Saudis promised a few more barrels.
All volunteer military in the USA may be getting a little behind the eight ball.
The game was simple, after Viet Nam and the ending of the draft we needed to make our military a place of compassion and great benefits for boys and girls. Those who thought they were “almost” safe were in the national guard units thinking that the day they would be called up for active duty was way off into the future.
Sorry about that Kuwait problem, they were called to active duty…but everyone showed up when they came home “victorious” in battle. Great idea this all volunteer military, right?
Oh those 20 years in Iraq and Afghanistan brought about mixed feelings that were kept under the radar: Girls on ships, babies/abortions galore, gays in uniform, then trans types…a few ladies in combat…what’s not to like about this mix?
And yet…now our military indicates they can’t fill the expected quotas to keep our military at top strength; plus the guys and those gals who have some serious skill sets where mucho dinaro was spent in training are leaving active duty!
Idi Amin’s cousin SecDef Austin and his amigo JSC Milley have a plan, only we average citizens have no idea what that may be…do you smell a draft in the wind?
Yea, let’s volunteer to offer up our lives for those who will never volunteer, then get into some serious sh*t where these so called “great leaders” then demand we “bug out” while they set up their next tee time! No dirt on their clothes, no blood by them will be shed….but for the deplorables, sign up and we will all call you heroes no matter what, then, when you come home and we recognize you by offering a hallow and simple “thank you for your service” should make this problem all go away, right?
Who is fooling who?
I thought Austin was Cyril Ramaphosas cousin lol
Back to war we go. I sure wish we had an actual opposition party in this country to point out that the Democrats have
After saying that Trump would start WW3 and destroy the economy back in 2016…
Projection is a real problem with these people.
And not one penny to fight the enemy in DC
Send in the trannies! Is there anyone else stupid enough to still be in the “military”?
You can always count on the Bidenistas to provide a daily dose of misery and mayhem.
They weren’t content with Lawfare- they want full blown Warfare.
Anything to distract the American public from what’s going on here.
Looks like they’re working their way back to the middle east. By the time our troops deploy there,
alot of that equipment from Afghanistan should be in the hands of the usual villains.
Obama will have himself a good dust-up.
It must be time to establish some more secrete bio weapon labs, the ones in Ukraine have been exposed.
I live and work in Maine, in the heart of Somalidom. I’m culturally sensitive from 7:30 – 4:30 M-F as I need my check, after that, these are not people to ignore. I literally hate them and the special class given to them. They creep into local politics and change every damn thing about our traditions and culture to theirs and the number of sympathizers within our own ranks only helps their mission. This is part of the destruction of our Nation.
I still remember some about how our legislators got reamed by the media for even daring to propose a bill to ban female “circumcision”.
Thanks for that first-hand reporting, Screw
My sister and brother in law have a retirement summer cabin up in the hills on a small lake, they’re working on winterizing it
I hope the alligator eats them last
What a nightmare.
We don’t know a damned thing about that part of the world.
We are ‘led’ by state department morons and woke leftists who think promoting feminism around the world in places like that is a swell idea.
Our military has zero business doing anything there.
Our pentagon and dod ‘leaders’ are proven buffoons and f ups.
So in we go.
Look for a zillion Somalis being imported soon into a neighborhood near you.
“We are ‘led’ by state department morons and woke leftists who think promoting feminism around the world in places like that is a swell idea.”
Yep
Our overseas embassies have flown rainbow flags in recent years
Our State Dept thinks their mission is to preach tolerance of homosexuals and transsexuals to the locals
The locals?
They wanna throw them off roofs
I wonder if the DOD has already planned how many billions of dollars worth of equipment they’re going to leave behind this time?
They’re running the numbers as we speak
Russia Looking Forward To Picking Up $40 Billion In New Equipment After US Abandons Ukraine
Pentagon spokesperson Carl Pell responded to Russian enthusiasm by saying, “The US has no intention of abandoning the $100 billion, I mean $40 billion, of equipment for the Ukrainian military.
“And when I said $100 billion earlier that was purely an accident and certainly not an indication that we plan to ask for an additional $60 billion after we lose this $40 billion. Next question?”
Ha!
Intel Slava Z in Telegram posts “trophies” of US equipment captured by Russian soldiers–multiple times a day. But Ukie-puke is WINNING! SMH.
It’s about time for the military to stand up and say NO.
What military?
The Joint Chiefs seem to be much of the problem …
Remember – it was the “military” that caved and let Blinken commandeer JoeBama’s ear so he’d let the Afghan withdrawal be conducted by Dept of State from an unsecure civilian airfield instead of the secure and defensible Bagram Air Base. State Dept insisted they be in charge and that the Embassy be the focus, right in the center of an indefensible city.
… and anyone lower down the command chain will be drummed out if they disagree with the Left’s plans (note what’s happened to servicemen who filed objections to the Covid vaccine)
Blinken is a blinking idiot.
Does Biden ever do anything the American people actually want? I never seen a POTUS give the finger to a majority of the USA, over and over and over again.
No
Remember it is barry running the show, and when he was publicly in office he had zero problem giving us the finger.
This is one reason MIttens loved Biden so much.
