#1 All the while, Hunter Biden was raking in millions from the Chinese, Russian, and Ukrainian oligarchs for no credible purpose other than gaining access to Joe Biden.

"Access to Joe Biden" is simply an intermediate goal. Globalization of our Republic remains the desired outcome.

Our tragic exit from Afghanistan was likely a foreign time-lined action. Notice how rapidly the event along with any follow-up investigation found it's was to the memory hole ?

#2 I think the Afghanistan debacle leaving a bad taste in the average American's mouth is a good thing.

#3 I keep hoping this great reset ends with our useless "elites" and "leaders" decorating trees and lamp posts.

#5 Truth is, I don't see it happening. 200+ years ago the Boston Massacre sparked a revolution. These days Ashli Babbit gets..... nada. The national will just isn't there.

#6 I fear you're right Mercutio. However a true crisis...say starvation , has a way of strengthening the spirit. Americans have never faced a true starvation situation en masse even during the Great Depression. It's going to be an interesting summer...

#7 I've got to agree with the outline above for the need and justification for a reset. Currently, we have criminals in D.C. at the helm. Whether or not the reset will happen I don't know.

#5 Mercutio. Many were not on board for a revolution 200+ years ago. Many sided with the British. And yet, the American Revolution went forward.

#8 We are at a tipping point with the coming midterms.

Wrong. The vote is compromised, and those who compromised it will never peacefully give it back.

If you liked Afghanistan you'll love Ukraine. Endless opportunities for embezzlement by Hunter, his dad and his uncle. Plus, they get to trash the US economy and make Americans even more dependent on Washington

#11 Bill Clinton and Bath House couldn't "ruin America." Pardon me if I doubt Joe Bidet can either.

#12 I have a friend who follows foreign policy issues closely and he partially blames Trump for the Afghanistan fiasco as he set the timeline in his deals with Afghanistan.

Well if he did I doubt he told them to evacuate important bases before the evacuation was complete. Nobody has been put on trial for incompetency, so Biden owns the fiasco.

#13 ruprecht, I seem to recall that President Trump couched the timing as dependent on the Afghan government and the Taliban meeting certain targets at each stage, otherwise it was off.

But also that the Pentagon was dragging its feet — and crowing about fooling him to their friends in the news media — so he eventually put his foot down.

#14 That is how I understood it. And Biden said we are leaving and they continued to drag their feet until it was too late and he hadn't changed his mind.
