[NYPOST] When President Joe Biden ...... 46th president of the U.S. Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... Just look at the competent way he dumped Afghanistan...... addressed the nation on Monday, he was admirably clear-eyed about the reason for leaving Afghanistan: US forces had killed the late Osama bin Laden ...... who is no longer with us, and won't be again...... long ago. America should have sought no more than to find and kill him and neutralize al Qaeda — not to will liberal democracy into existence in a country that has rarely enjoyed a stable central government at any point in the last 2,000 years.

#2, maybe the Marshall Plan. That was nation building too but then at least we had some material we could work with.

Oh, and then there are the foreign policy experts who think of Israel as an ally we should support. Biden might not be one of those. He seems to favor Iran just like his former boss.

The "mystique" existed only among those in the media sucking Brennan's and Clapper's d*cks. Everybody eles saw them for what they we for over a decade.

Re #2 & #9,The largest difference between AFG and the Marshall Plan in Europe and Japan, is that in the WW2 examples, the people there already had a developed country, and wanted one back. The people of AFG didn't have one to begin with, and would routinely bail out when given the opportunity.
I have repeatedly seen police reports advising of AFG personel being trained in the US, and would go AWOL in order to not go back hame.
Ponder this: Is there now an anticipated migration of immigrants to go back to AFG?

I've heard it also said Japan is a culture based on honor. Where Afghanistan is a culture based on shame.

Election fraud. If Biden is the most popularly elected president in history (81 million votes), you would think the left would wouldn't mind a healthy look at the vote to show this.
All the push-back, lying, and lawyering-up by the left would seem to indicate the election wasn't on the up-and-up.

She should do us all a favor and keep it that way.

Kamala — ‘You will not pin this shit on me!’ According to multiple reports, Harris was asked to address the American people on Sunday about the unraveling situation in the war-torn country, but refused. As the Taliban threatened the lives of thousands of Americans and allies in Kabul, pressure mounted on the White House to look the people in the eye and explain what happened.
Yet, no one did.
A well-placed source inside the White House informs Becker News that Kamala objected to addressing the nation on Sunday. The source reports that Harris could be heard screaming, “They will not pin this shit on me!”
[FoxNews] Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley's annual financial disclosure shows she and her husband made thousands of dollars in rental income last year.
Pressley has been one of the most prominent advocates for canceling rent during the COVID-19 pandemic.
"We must cancel rent, extend eviction and foreclosure moratoriums, provide rental assistance, and offer legal representation for those at risk of eviction," Pressley, a member of the far-left "Squad," wrote in a Dec. 2020 tweet.
She introduced a bill in March 2021 that, if passed, would have canceled rent and mortgage payments nationwide.
The bill would have required the federal government to reimburse landlords for any rent not paid during the pandemic.
Pressley's 2020 financial disclosure, filed on Friday, disclosed between $5,000 and $15,000 in rental income from a Boston property in her husband's name. The property was converted into a multi-family apartment after it was purchased, according to Pressley's disclosure.
Pressley's office did not immediately return Fox News' request for comment on whether she and her husband canceled rent for their tenants at any point in 2020. She disclosed the same range of rental income – between $5,000 and $15,000 – in 2020 as she did in 2019, before the pandemic began.

Don't you get it yet? These restrictions they advocate are for everyone else, not themselves. They of course can do this because their hearts are pure and they deserve a good income for the good things they're doing. We get no such consideration as they have determined our hearts are evil and only bad things come out of us.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
