Afghanistan: Biden Denies International Criticism, Thinks Airport is Secure and Safe
Biden is delusional and incompetent. But so are the two people standing next to him.
President Joe Biden finally emerged for his press conference around 50 minutes late. It lasted for 30 minutes.
Biden did nothing but lie, answer questions with hypotheticals, and stumble over every single sentence.
I will hold back and not allow my anger to get the best of me out of respect for Professor Jacobson.
Much Progress!
Biden thinks America has made significant progress since Monday. Has he missed the news that the Air Force is not meeting its evacuation goals? has he missed that planes leave only 60% full?
The airport is secured? Are you sure about that, Biden?

THIS is on Biden.
Ward: "I would advise people in this moment, given what I've seen here over the last few days, not to come to the airport until the situation is resolved & until the process is streamlined, until there is a system in place — a efficient & effective system." pic.twitter.com/BUIkZX6o22

No One Questions Us!
Biden confirms his staff and minions cut him off from the world. Biden thinks no one has questioned our credibility.
Vijeta Uniyal wrote a piece about the backlash around the world!

Biden Doesn’t Like it When You Question His Competency
They were prepicked questions, but man. Biden did not like the one from Bloomberg. He had the nerve to tell Justin Sinks his question compared apples to oranges.
Only to a moron, Biden.
Biden's immediate retort was "that's comparing apples to oranges." wtf? https://t.co/vrEnHAZfzJ

REPORTER: "We learned over the last 24 hours that there was a dissent cable from the State Dept saying that the Taliban would come faster… Can you say why after that cable was issued, the U.S. didn't do more?"
BIDEN: "We got all kinds of cables." pic.twitter.com/eCKoZhheOS

Americans in Afghanistan
Biden said they will do all they can to bring home Americans in Afghanistan. Uh huh…There’s nowhere to go! No one can get to the airport!
Biden also doesn’t know how many Americans are still in Afghanistan.
Just now, Biden admits what his administration has been burying all week: they have NO CLUE how many Americans are stranded in Afghanistan!
BIDEN: "We want to get a strong number to as to how many people are there, how many Americans, and where they are."

BIDEN: "Any American who wants to come, we will get you home… I cannot promise what the final outcome will be or that it will be without risk of loss but and Commander-in-chief, I will mobilize every resource necessary." pic.twitter.com/Vchf7Sx85t

Soldiers by the runway at Kabul airport tell me that there are 10,000 people here processed and ready to go… but nowhere to fly them to because Qatar is refusing to accept more Afghans because they’ve reached capacity. “It’s abysmal… someone needs to step up.”
— Clarissa Ward (@clarissaward) August 20, 2021
CNN’s @clarissaward in Kabul: “I'm sitting here for 12 hours in the airport, 8 hours on the airfield and I haven't seen a single US plane take off. How on Earth are you going to evacuate 50,000 people in the next two weeks? It just, it can’t happen.”

.@clarissaward is inside the Kabul airport and it's still total chaos: "During the last 8 hours… we have not seen a single U.S. flight evacuate people." #FFS @KateBolduan @CNN

Relying on the Taliban
Have you guys noticed how much we’re relying on the Taliban? Have you noticed Biden continues to trust and believe everything the Taliban says?
Biden says US in constant contact with Taliban to get safe passage to airport. So, US asking former enemy, the Taliban, to please allow us to get our people out while they take the country.

NPR Reporter “That doesn’t square with what we’re seeing.”
“I thought the question was something else. … We have an agreement that the Taliban will allow pass through the checkpoints that they control.”#biden

Joe Biden all but admitted the White House’s plan to get Americans out of Afghanistan hinges on trusting the Taliban. Bizarre.

He should concede the stolen election to Trump and go take a nap.
He doesn’t have time to concede. He might miss his flight back to Delaware.
There are plenty of sets left, it’s only 60% full.
Here’s a possible way to get rid of this entire incompetent administration. If the Democratic higher-ups would admit that they stole the election and that Donald Trump actually won, the Supreme Court might have to be involved, for that to happen.
Impeaching Biden just puts Kamala in the presidency. She is no better and anyone else in the dem ranks are useless also.
No, it wouldn’t. Time to stop with the fantasies and, unlike Biden, accept reality: He is the president (in name only, IMO) and will remain so until Jan. 20, 2024, unless he resigns or dies (I’m assuming Dems wouldn’t try impeachment). Even the 25th won’t save us, as Harris would become acting president only until Biden regains his powers. In the unlikely event his handlers acquiesced and Biden didn’t seek to regain his powers, he would remain president until death, resignation, removal, or his term ends. That would be worse than the Potemkin presidency we have now.
And Iraq (Iraq 2.0) before that, which was a prelude to transcontinental (“world”) war and ISIS, too, in an administrative legacy, secured.
5 Minutes late. Must be mayhem in the White House.
9 Minutes Late.
Over under on how long till he gets 25th’d.
Ace of Spades pointed out that interview prior was edited down and only the transcript was released. It was not looking good for the dementia patient.
Many silent Democrat office-holders likely want Biden out, as they fear that the systemic incompetence of his administration will bring them down come 2022.
But Joe cannot resign or be fired. The Democrat high command will not let either happen, no matter the short-term political cost.

The person who wrote that opinion piece forgot Mitt, Lisa and Susan.
You wanted him, boys… he’s all yours now.
So, we’ll end up with months of our politburo telling us that he’s recuperating where no one can see him, just like Andropov (or was it Chernenko)? My family made a lot of “Generalisimo Francisco Franco is still dead” jokes about Soviet leaders around then.
Yeah, I assume he had a stroke a few weeks ago, which conveniently exonerates every incompetent general, intelligence operative, and cabinet member.
TBA.
25th’d or “has an aneurism”, or, “chokes on” something?
12 Minutes.

They are waiting for the drugs to kick in.

What’s over under on his puppeteers calling a lid and leaving just Harris deal with it?
25 Minutes Late.
Will he resign?
Will it be president heels up now?
These are dark times for America.
28 Minutes.
Lid!
A full key! What a weekend… like, wow, man…

Biden is like Humpt Dumpty. They’ve picked up the pieces of his mind and put them back together so many times that soon all the kings horses and all the kings men won’t be able to put Biden’s mind back together again.

The just gave 2 minute warning – about to start
Now they’re on!
“80% of success in life is just showing up.”
–Woody Allen
The French and British can get their people out and we’re sitting on our hands waiting for the Mister Softee truck to come. Three traitors on stage. I’d like to hang them all by their ankles six inches off the ground.
I think that’s actually a line item on Kamala’s menu.
OMG…. I’m so pissed. What an out of touch lying pos. Three gosh darn imbeciles on stage.
10 minute speech.
Tried to reassure the nation that he is in control and will fix the problem he created.
I’m not convinced.
Taking Questions. AP reporter is first.
Seems like he pre-determined to pick the AP. He actually said “AP” instead of just pointing.
Serious question – finally.
We have grandpa Simpson for president.
If it must be an old man, I’ll take Eastwood’s character from Gran Torino.
He still had all his marbles.
And although I’ve only seen its of the movie, I know he was plain-spoken.
No he calls on “Justin Sink of Bloomberg”
Seems like he has a pre-determined list of who to call on. Maybe the delay was to collection questions from reporters and pick the one’s he will call on.
Totally phony question and answer session.. Reporters could be seen reading their questions and Joe could be seen reading the answers. Who’s fooling who?
A lot of the American public.
Next he looks down at paper and says “Now, Stephanie Ramos of NBC”
Yeah, he definitely collected questions from reporters and is picking the ones he want to answer.
Two observations:
– His speech seemed quite slurred at the beginning. Drugs?
– Taking questions: Obviously prepared and coordinated in advance, because having a corrupt and illegitimate administration requires a corrupt and unethical press body.
Now, he picks “Meredith Leigh of PBS”
Same deal – he looks down at piece of paper where he must have a list of the reporters that have been pre-selected. Totally staged.
I bet he wasn’t supposed to read the names, just recognize them and point to them. But this is the guy who says “salute the Marine” out loud. His crack staff overestimates him once more.
I cannot remember Trump ever pre-selecting reporters.
>> Maybe he did. But, if so, he had the good sense to not make it so obvious.
More evidence of collusion between media + Biden administration.
Looking down at his paper again – calls out Scott Dentro.
Well, somebody needs to call out Joe Biden!!!!
25 Minutes
10 minute speech + 15 minutes of questions.
I give the whole thing a B-minus.
F
incomplete
Only pre-approved, coordinated questions allowed.
Shame, shame, shame.
To the NPR reporter he starts “I thought the question was . . .” Meaning “you didn’t ask the prearranged question that’s on my notecard.”
Wow. That was a horrible joke of briefing. Total lies and distortions.
Bottom line:
1. Consensus Intel was the ANA would collapse or suffer defeat. The only difference among them was timing.
2. ‘No criticism or questions about US leadership’ WTF? UK, FR and GER have loudly and publicly criticized Biden.
3. ‘There’s no Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan’ Holy crap, who the flip is telling Biden that?
This briefing is disconnected from objective reality. Every person standing alongside Biden should be thrown out of govt and public life. Every person in the D party and media who helped elect this travesty by covering up for him should be hounded out of public life. Damn this.
2.

God help the Americans left behind in Afghanistan.
We now know the Biden admin won’t.
If I were Vladimir Putin, I’d send rescue teams in and get the Americans out. Fly them home on a nice Aeroflot plane, and say “glad to help.
No parading them before the press in Moscow or anything so vulgar. Just a no strings attached rescue.
Let the people see a REAL leader sening in a military not encumbered with CRT, feminazism, or other such nonsense.
And make a behind the scenes deal with the Taliban to humiliate the Biden admin even further.
J: Putin is a smart man. He has no need to waste a called-in favor for that. Biden is burning down like a rice-paper house in a firestorm.
This is an odd thing to say, I know but… here goes. I would like to meet Putin. Just sit and talk over coffee. Yes, he is a nasty sort, and is our nominal enemy.
But, he is also tough, loves his nation, and at least seems to want t protect and preserve Russia AS Russia. No diversitist, he. It would be so refreshing to talk with a patriot.
I heard Putin likes teddy bears so be careful
