[FOX] Fox News contributor Lisa Boothe called for President Biden's resignation during a fiery appearance on "The Big Sunday Show" where she accused his administration of endangering American lives abroad during the evacuation of U.S. troops from Afghanistan.
LISA BOOTHE: We do not know how many Americans are left in Afghanistan and if we don't know, how do we know we've gotten them all out? How do we know when [the] mission is complete if we don't know how many Americans are in Afghanistan?
This just goes to show you... why former defense secretary Robert Gates said Joe Biden has been wrong about every major foreign-policy issue for the past four decades, witnessing what has unfolded over the past few days and he sits there and lies to all of us by trying to tell us this was ’unavoidable?’ Joe Biden owns the disaster in Afghanistan from start to finish. Not only did he vote to authorize the war and go to Afghanistan in the first place but he presides over the biggest foreign-policy blunder in our lifetimes leaving Americans behind and such incompetence not even knowing how many Americans are there...also leaving behind military assets.
[AMERICANTHINKER] The Army of North Vietnam had Jane Fonda.
Fonda was a willing useful idiot to them and their propaganda and had a grand old time gleefully bouncing up and down on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun used to shoot down American fighters. That image was catnip to the communists, but sickening to Americans, and the putrid image reverberated for decades.
But not even those masters of propaganda, burning with hate for the U.S., could top the Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... , which must have spent months brainstorming to come up with crap like this:
They've got quite a propaganda operation, state of the art, really, and imagine what they've got for us come 9/11.
Apparently the image has been out there since late July, first run by the U.K, Sun, but it's gotten out now, a painful reminder that senile Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. The guy who lost Afghanistan, aka Biden's Bungle... and his clown lieutenants have handed the Taliban billions of dollars of state-of-the-art American equipment, and a $700 million embassy as the Taliban runs circles around the Americans trying to leave the country, blocking 10,000 American citizens' entry to the Kabul airport to evacuate, accompanied by beatings, and the odd spray of machine gun fire in the huge, desperate crowd on the outside. They defeated us, as at least one Biden official reportedly said, in what was a self-inflicted own-goal on our side. And now they're twisting the knife on us as well as making a bid for new recruits.
Which rather tells us that the Biden-created catastrophe is far from over. The terrorists, at least so long as Biden is around, have "won" and winning a whole country is not enough for them, they also need to dance around and stomp on our most sacred images to keep the party going.
The idea of course, is sadistic pleasure in our pain across the board, not just to America's brave veterans of the Afghanistan war, but to American troops from every war, and Americans in general.
Imagine what World War II veterans, who fought and died in the most desperate warlike conditions and eventually won, must be feeling when they see that grotesque clown parody, done up by slimy bully boyz who did nothing at all to win except for wait for the Biden administration (aka the Wilmington comorra) ...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... to destroy itself, putting on captured American uniforms as war booty, and putting out this garbage propaganda to claim that they, too, have "won."

Watching the military leadership dudes in dresses trying to outperform Gary Busey in Under Siege makes this look like snark, and not very good snark.
[BBC] A disinformation campaign claiming that the Covid-19 virus originated from an American military base in Maryland has gained popularity in China ahead of the release of a US intelligence report on the virus origins.
In May, US president Joe Biden ordered a 90-day probe into whether the Covid-19 virus came from a lab accident or emerged from human contact with an infected animal.
Until then, the "Wuhan lab leak" theory had been dismissed by most scientists as a fringe conspiracy theory.
But now as the report is due to be released, China has gone on the offensive. In the past few weeks, Chinese sources have been amplifying a baseless claim that Covid-19 was made in the US.
Using everything from rap music to fake Facebook posts, experts say the propaganda efforts have been successful at convincing the domestic Chinese audience to cast scepticism on international criticism of the country's role in the Covid-19 pandemic. But, experts say, it has done little to legitimise China to the outside world.
WHAT ARE THE ALLEGATIONS?
Most Americans may have never heard of Fort Detrick, but it is becoming a household name in China.
Chinese propagandists have pushed a conspiracy suggesting that the Covid-19 coronavirus was made and leaked from the military installation in Frederick, Maryland, about 80 km (50 miles) north of Washington DC.
Once the centre of the US biological weapons programme, it currently houses biomedical labs researching viruses including Ebola and smallpox. Its complicated history has sparked speculation in China.
Mr Zhao, who is known for his aggressive style of diplomacy, has played an important role in spreading the "US origin" theory. Several tweets from his account last year first drew wide attention to Fort Detrick. "What's behind the closure of the biolab at Fort Detrick?" he wrote in July 2020, "When will US invite experts to investigate the origin of the virus in US?"
In recent months, his calls have been joined by Chinese diplomats based in various countries, and the Chinese state broadcaster CCTV even aired an hour-long special report, "The Dark History behind Fort Detrick", focusing on breaches of containment at the lab in 2019, to bolster claims of lax lab security echoed by Chinese officials and state media. A related hashtag has had more than 100 million views on Weibo, China's Twitter equivalent.
"We see a more sustained campaign involving more numerous and geographically spread accounts to promote the narrative," about Fort Detrick, says Ira Hubert, a senior investigative analyst at social analytics firm Graphika.
Another popular theory, pushed by the nationalist tabloid the Global Times, attempts to connect the virus's origins to a US coronavirus expert, Dr Ralph Baric, and researchers at Fort Detrick.
The newspaper suggested that Dr Baric created a new human-infecting coronavirus, citing a paper the North Carolina-based researcher co-authored about the virus's transmission from bats in Nature Medicine.

But now as the report is due to be released, China has gone on the offensive.
Frankly, it wouldn't surprise me if they'd already seen every last bit of the report.

I have visited this sight many times. Located in a populated area with security as well. Nothing major. Locals were very familiar with this facility. Experiments yes but what not really known. In today's world people thought aids began there. I don't think so. Birds die from flu quickly and that was studied(I understand sheep also). Birds were studied and I know that for a fact. No great excitement here. Very low key. Mainly research. Obviously research but product development perhaps not.

At the very beginning of the Japanese occupation of Manchuria, many Russian immigres, who associate the arrival of the Japanese with hopes to restore order in the city and to protect themselves from the arbitrariness of the Chinese authorities and, what the hell is not kidding, help in the further liberation of Russia from the communist Jews, joyfully greeted the new authorities. But soon most Russians realized that there was no good to be expected from the Japanese.
The Japanese established their own, Japanese order in the city, which differed from the Chinese arbitrariness only in that that in general, disenfranchised Russian immigres were freed from indiscriminate extortions by the Chinese authorities. The Japanese established strict rules, and extortions, so to speak, became orderly and legal. Before the arrival of the Japanese, we had our own horse. With the arrival of the Japanese, the horse had to be sold: they introduced an unaffordable tax on horse ownership, and once the nurse on the farm became an expensive burden. It was bought by Cossacks visiting from Three Rivers.
Having sold the horse, my grandfather bought a donkey. Donkeys, as it turned out, were not taxed, and could work in much the same way as horses. Having sold a Russian cart and bought a Chinese cart, my grandfather woke up Uncle Yuri every morning, even before dawn, and they left for the distillery for a bard. Despite all the efforts of his grandfather to live prosperously, it became more difficult day by day to do so.
[American Thinker] We Americans focus tightly on our federal elected officials. We become fanatic about our presidential candidates and scrutinize closely our senators and House members. But when it comes to the agencies that really run the government, the best we can do is contact our Senators about the officials who need Senate approval. We have no say at all over the vast army of unnamed employees. Trump’s presidency, though, revealed how powerful these unelected people are...and how much they hate us. Exhibit A for today is General Michael Hayden, former Director of the NSA and Director of the CIA — under George W. Bush.
Hayden’s Twitter feed reveals how very deeply and profoundly this former military officer and government official hates that half (or more than half) of America that voted for Trump. He shows the same animosity we saw with Peter Strzok when he wrote his married girlfriend that he could "smell" the Trump supporters at Walmart.
Here are some examples of what you’ll find on his feed. For one thing, if you don't want to take a vaccine that even the MSM is conceding is potentially dangerous, he wants you out of the country and preferably, dead:
[TheTelegraph] The world appears to have woken up to an important truth this week: which is that Joe Biden is a truly terrible president. It is a shame that it took America gifting Afghanistan back to the Taliban for so many people to realise this.
To be charitable, there were perhaps two reasons why this had not become more obvious before. The first is that Joe Biden is not Donald Trump and for a lot of the planet that seems to be recommendation enough to occupy the Oval Office. A break from the Trump show appealed to an awful lot of people.
But the second reason why too few realised what the world was going to get from a Biden presidency is that the US media simply didn’t ask the questions it needed to ask. Before the election a near entirety of the American media gave up covering it and simply campaigned for the Democrat nominee.
It was the same with the Big Tech companies. So persuaded were they (Twitter in particular) that they had been responsible for Donald Trump’s election in 2016 that during the 2020 race they did everything they could to get Biden in. That included – and this cannot be said often enough – effectively muting America’s oldest newspaper: the New York Post’s story about Hunter Biden’s laptop, which contained serious allegations of corrupt tail-coating by Hunter and other members of the Biden family when Joe was vice-president. But Big Tech restricted the story from being shared and almost no other journalists bothered to follow it up.
This is just one week in the life of Joe Biden, but you could select almost any other week in his career and find a similar soup of certainty, unknowingness, falteringness and arrogance. It is what you get when you have spent a career with a court media asking you about your choice of ice cream and reached the highest office in the land because you weren’t the other guy.
The world always gets serious again. And it just got serious on Biden’s watch and has shown something that should have been revealed during the primary season long ago: that the man who is now commander-in-chief is not remotely in command of his brief.

They will only do away with his arse when they have found another way to cling to power.

Looking for adults is exclusionary and quite possibly racist. I know Jazz Jennings is 21 now and can no longer represent a crucial teenage policy maker gap, but that's no reason for you to exclude her from an executive decision position.
Its been obvious since Iowa. Even the die-hards were like, "My vote is actually a vote for the first female president."
Why is the Chinese ambassador wasting time discussing with a non-entity. he should speak to Bajwa, the authority for security. Maybe this was just a photo-op. Main discussions in Rawalpindi Chinese ambassador takes up security issue with Rashid https://t.co/744yTueKM5
Look up an article in a Chinese military magazine titled "The Six Wars China Must Fight." The author (a Chinese General) argues that any place that submitted to China during its history is part of China and must be "reconquered" by China. The interesting thing is the article claims that the Mongols are Chinese. Therefore anyplace that submitted to the mongols is part of China.

^ Paks would be wise to be suspicious of anybody who says they want to be friends with Pakistan. After all, who would want to be friends with Pakistan?
