[NEWSBUSTERS.ORG] The shocking fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban ...Arabic for students... is such a failure that even the liberal networks on Monday have abandoned Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S., who gives the geriatric a bad name... 's decision making (at least for now), hammering the President as "completely wrong" and executing a Vietnam-esque Saigon "debacle."
On NBC’s Today, co-host Savannah Guthrie opened the show by blasting, "A catastrophe for its people and a debacle for the Biden crime family administration ...knaves, footpads, and adjusters employed by the Biden Crime Family. They leave a trail of havoc everywhere they turn their attention, be it the nation's borders, the Keystone XL Pipeline, or epidemics, sometimes on purpose, most times through sheer arrogant ineptitude. They learnt this stuff in college, you know... . A triumphant Taliban storming the presidential palace in Kabul, seizing total control of the country."
Guthrie piled on: "And the President at Camp David standing by his decision but under fire for a botched withdrawal." All three networks eagerly and repeatedly compared Biden’s disaster to the fall of Vietnam. NBC chief foreign correspondent Richard Engel linked, "The Taliban had been taking potshots at the U.S. transport planes as they leave and many are drawing comparisons to the U.S. evacuation from Saigon."
Good Morning America hosts repeatedly used the Vietnam language that Biden hates the most. Co-host Robin Roberts opened the show by comparing: "The Taliban take over with terrifying speed, described as Saigon on steroids." Later, she echoed, "The capital officially under Taliban control this morning. The quick takeover described as, ’Saigon on steroids.’"
Talking to global affairs correspondent Martha Raddatz, George Stephanopoulos declared, "This appears to be the Saigon moment in Afghanistan." Raddatz agreed, "It certainly does."
Continuing the trend of putting the harsh response up front, CBS This Morning opened the show with a clip of Congressman Steve Scalise (R-LA): "President Joe Biden ...... 46th president of the U.S., father of Hunter...... saying you wouldn't see helicopters evacuating the embassy like Saigon, and yet here we are. This is President Biden's Saigon moment."
Even Democrat donor and co-host Gayle King made the Vietnam comparison: "At least five people have been killed in the chaos, and we just learned there's now a temporary halt on flights at the airport. Many observers compare the scene to the fall of South Vietnam back in 1975."

Boy, their handlers are pissed at losing their war. Criticizing the president! The media are government lapdogs these days, but this? Unprecedented.

They're panicking. They put so much effort to oust Gorbachev Trump they couldn't think beyond that. Now things are really running out of hand. In the history doesn't repeat itself but rhymes category they're whistling past the graveyard. Our monetary system is the only thing keeping it together, but with the Left's uncontrolled spending and the Fed's cowardice, they're going to kill that.
[BIZPACREVIEW] NBC News White House correspondent Monica Alba noted on Sunday that Republicans "have seized on" the "optical comparison" of the hasty U.S. withdrawals from both Kabul, Afghanistan, and then-Saigon, South Vietnam, after photos of similar helicopters lifting off from the respective U.S. embassies in both countries 45 years apart went viral Sunday.
CH-47 Chinook helicopters were seen ferrying American diplomatic personnel and Afghan allies from the rooftop of the U.S. Embassy in Kabul for much of the day Saturday and into Sunday, images that were broadcast by news agencies sent out over wire service reports.
During her report, Alba noted that last month President Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. We get to suffer the consequences... assured Americans that the withdrawal from Afghanistan would not at all resemble the chaotic scenes in what was at the time the capital of South Vietnam ahead of rapidly advancing North Vietnamese troops.
In addition, her report included a clip of Secretary of State Antony Blinken from this past weekend, in which he claimed, "This is manifestly not Saigon."
"Still, helicopters continuously evacuated Americans and our Afghan allies to the airport throughout the day, an optical comparison Republicans have seized on as they continue to blast the president’s foreign policy strategy," Alba said, as she led into clips of Reps. Michael McCaul of Texas and Liz Cheney ...Faux Republican hereditary congresswoman-for-life from Wyoming. She has been described as Republican royalty. A staunch Never Trumper, Liz supported the second impeachment of Donald Trump for his role in the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol. Publicans dumped her from her leadership position in May 2021. Refusing to admit that she had trashed her own career, Cheney has said that she intends to be the leader... in a fight to help to restore our party and that she may be interested in a future presidential run.... of Wyoming ripping Biden.

[Conservative Brief] Democrat Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) is under serious scrutiny for his donation of more than $50,000 of his campaign funds to his alma mater at Stanford University following revelations that his son is enrolling in the school for his freshman year.Filings in the Federal Election Commission show that Lieu gave four donations amounting to $51,046 to his alma mater, Stanford University, between the years of 2016 and 2018.
Fox News reported on Sunday that Lieu’s son is enrolled in the college as a freshman in the class of 2025, according to his Instagram bio, raising questions about whether Lieu’s donation was intended as a quid-pro-quo to the college.
As Fox News highlights, Lieu’s son’s admission into Stanford comes in the wake of the "Varsity Blues" scandal, which saw the kids of rich parents, including actresses Felicity Huffman and Full House’s Lori Loughlin after William Sanger fraudulently inflated their kids’ test scores and bribed college admission officials.
The Twitter account that first raised questions about Lieu’s donation was swiftly banned from the platform after the user posted screenshots of the FEC filings and that of Lieu’s son’s Instagram page.
"This looks very bad," remarked National Review contributor Luke Thompson, highlighting the account’s suspension.
The FEC allows political campaigns to provide financial donations to charitable organizations, including schools, but campaigns are prohibited from using the money for "purposes that personally benefit the candidate."

Uh. This is very bizarre. The account that tweeted about @tedlieu making contributions to Stanford out of his campaign account - and Lieu’s son now attending Stanford - has been suspended.

[ConservativeBrief] A Democrat city councilman and five others have been charged with election fraud in California.
Compton City Councilman Isaac Galvan and Compton City Council candidate Jace Dawson worked together in order to help Galvan keep his district and Dawson was charged with attempting to bribe a registrar as she was counting votes on election night, The Los Angeles Times reported.
Isaac Galvan, 34, was one of six people charged Friday with conspiracy to commit election fraud, according to a criminal complaint filed by the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.
Prosecutors allege Galvan conspired with Jace Dawson, one of his opponents in an April primary for Galvan’s council seat, to direct voters from outside the council district to cast ballots for Galvan in a June runoff, the complaint states.
At least three improper ballots were counted in the runoff election, ultimately swinging the race, according to the complaint. Galvan raked in 855 votes while Andre Spicer, a Compton native and entrepreneur, tallied 854 ballots in a June runoff election, records show.
Prosecutors also charged Dawson, Kimberly Chaouch, Toni Sanae Morris, Barry Kirk Reed and Reginald Orlando Streeter with two counts each of conspiracy to commit election fraud. Chaouch, Morris, Reed and Streeter all voted in the primary or runoff for the Compton City Council’s second district, despite not living there.
The pair were arrested on Friday and brought into a downtown courtroom in handcuffs as they both pleaded not guilty and were released on their own recognizance.
This is the second time Los Angeles County prosecutors have discovered attempts to manipulate mail-in voting in the 2020 election.
Spicer said he had suspected fraud and his concerns were validated when a woman told his staff that she had committed voter fraud.
“They asked her what do you mean? And she said … she registered to vote from his house and she knows about 20 other people who did the same thing,” he said.
“I can take a loss, but I can’t take being cheated. I don’t like what that does for democracy. It contradicts what I advocate for,” he said. “To hear this happening. I don’t even have the words.”
In November, two men were arrested charged with an attempt to register around 8,000 “fictitious, nonexistent or deceased” voters for mail-in ballots in the Hawthorne mayoral election, The Times reported.
Carlos Antonio De Bourbon Montenegro, 53, and Marcos Raul Arevalo, 34, were charged with multiple counts of voter fraud after allegedly trying to register 8,000 “fictitious, nonexistent or deceased” voters to receive mail-in ballots. The scheme was part of an illicit bid by Montenegro to become mayor of Hawthorne, according to a criminal complaint made public Tuesday.
Montenegro and Arevalo allegedly used three recently registered post office boxes and Montenegro’s home address to submit the fraudulent applications, which allowed election officials to quickly flag them as suspicious in mid-October, according to Dean Logan, the county’s top election official.
While court records show at least 29 mail-in ballots were issued to people Montenegro and Arevalo had allegedly ginned up, none of the ballots were tallied in the general election, Logan said.

This has been happening in California for decades. For decades California switched between Democrat and Republican governors, then suddenly its all Democrats all the time. They have election fraud down to a science except this time a spotlight was on them.
[Gateway Pundit] Ralph Jones resigned from his Election position in Fulton County on Friday.
Back in early December we first learned the name of the individual who told election workers to go home on Election night so he and some hand-picked workers could pull ballots out from under tables and jam thousands of Biden-only ballots through tabulation machines.
A short time later, the CFO of the Secretary of State’s office, Gabe Sterling, claimed that nothing was out of the normal in Fulton County on Election Night. Sterling lied in an interview with Newsmax and said that there was an election poll watcher in Fulton County when they were jamming thousands of ballots into voting tabulation machines on election night. This poll watcher, Sterling said was Ralph Jones. But this was a lie because Jones worked for Sterling and the elections department of Fulton County. Jones was not an independent observer. Jones also was pushing thousands of ballots through the tabulation machines himself on Election Night.
Gabe Sterling and Secretary of State Raffensperger were lying. The actions in Fulton County on Election Night were criminal.

Unless there are enough members of the House to vote for this, it's never going to make it out of the House. If it does make it out of the House, there's not enough votes in the Senate to bring removal. It's a gesture.
There are many others who should be impeached because of their part.

This kind of websites are really build stupid. Who' the idiot that accept the crap they ask? permission for? They don't even have a reject all option.
[PJ] Shouldn't she be stoned to death? The Somalian Way UNCLE DAD
Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar has long been accused of marrying her brother to get around U.S. immigration laws (he should have just walked across the southern border). Now a DNA test, done surreptitiously, shows that there is a 99.999998% chance that Omar and her second husband, Ahmed Elmi, are siblings.
The test was posted online by a Republican strategist from Minneapolis, Anton Lazzaro, on Wednesday. Twelve hours later, Lazzaro was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges.
