Former Navy SEAL says, “Americans are paying in blood for Biden’s disastrous troop withdrawal and submission to the Taliban”

 Bare Naked Islam.com   "Congressman Dan Crenshaw, a retired Navy SEAL, offers his perspective on the current situation in Afghanistan. He says we could still pull this out and save our citizens and those who helped us by telling the Taliban that we won’t leave until we are ready to leave."

• Via Politico:..."U.S. officials in Kabul gave the Taliban a list of names of American citizens, green card holders and Afghan allies to grant entry into the militant-controlled outer perimeter of the city’s airport, a choice that’s prompted outrage behind the scenes from lawmakers and military officials.
• "The move, detailed to POLITICO by three U.S. and congressional officials, was designed to expedite the evacuation of tens of thousands of people from Afghanistan as chaos erupted in Afghanistan’s capital city last week after the Taliban seized control of the country. It also came as the Biden administration has been relying on the Taliban for security outside the airport.

What final US days in Afghanistan will look like: Scaling back evacuation flights, destroying weaponry

 2 suicide attacks outside Kabul airport; Russia says 13 dead (yahoo.com)  "Two suicide bombers and gunmen attacked crowds of Afghans flocking to Kabul's airport Thursday, transforming a scene of desperation into one of horror in the waning days of an airlift for those fleeing the Taliban takeover. At least 13 people were killed and 15 wounded, Russian officials said.

"Several Marines were killed and a number of other American military were wounded, a U.S. official said. It was not clear if those deaths were included in the Russian toll.

"One of the bombers struck people standing knee-deep in a wastewater canal under the sweltering sun, throwing bodies into the fetid water. Those who moments earlier had hoped to get on flights out could be seen carrying the wounded to ambulances in a daze, their own clothes darkened with blood.

"A U.S. official said the complex attack was believed to have been carried out by the Islamic State group. The IS affiliate in Afghanistan is far more radical than the Taliban, who recently took control of the country in a lightning blitz and condemned the attack." . . .

For some vulnerable Afghans, there is little hope of rescue from U.S. commandos. Instead, people such as Najeeb Rahimi, a translator who worked for the U.S. Army a decade ago, make the hazardous trek to the airport every day, braving Taliban checkpoints and hoping for a chance to escape.

What Will Become Of California Students and Parents Stranded in Afghanistan Now That Terrorists Attacking?

 Legal Insurrection   UPDATE: Six students and two adults returned safely. 16 parents, two-dozen students still remain.

..."The Daily Mail reported six students and two parents returned. At least 18 students plus five other families are still waiting to get home:

The Cajon Valley Union School District announced Thursday that a family of eight — six children and two adults — has returned home safely.

‘One of our families did arrive in the United States and are home safe. Which we are completely ecstatic about,’ Michael Serban, Director of Family and Community Engagement, told NBC 7.

Officials have not revealed how the family managed to get back to the states or indicated if they have actually made it back to San Diego.

Sixteen parents and more than two-dozen students, ranging from preschoolers to high schoolers, from the San Diego suburb of El Cajon, which has a large Afghan refugee population, traveled to Afghanistan over summer break to visit grandparents and other relatives.

Nigel Farage: 'No way' British parliament would vote for military cooperation with America under Biden admin | Fox News    "Nigel Farage, former Brexit party leader, slammed the Biden administration’s Afghanistan blunder Tuesday, arguing the crisis has led his country of Britain feeling "betrayed." Under Biden, Farage told "Fox & Friends First" that "there is no way a British parliament right now would vote for military cooperation with America.' "

...Certainly, if it's a Biden or Harris administration, honestly, there is no way, there is no way a British parliament right now would vote for military cooperation with America led by this administration. And that's a very sad thing to say, because since 1917, the U.K. and America have been side by side in virtually every major conflict. We've been the closest allies in terms of military action, in terms of intelligence sharing, in terms of culture, in terms of business. You couldn't have a better ally in the world. And right at the moment, I'm sorry, but there's no way we could enter into another operation with you.//

Tactically, it makes sense, but I’m not sure how history will – I think history will judge this moment as a very dark period for the United States.”...

The universal panning of President Biden’s decision to finally leave Afghanistan is the mirror image of the one time the media loved Trump. Remember that joyous occasion?

"It was when he bombed Syria two months after taking office.

"Here’s a sampling of the mash-notes to Trump for sending 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles to strike a country 6,000 miles away from us.

"The New York Post: “A New Sheriff in Town: Trump’s Strike on Syria”

"New York Daily News: “KICK IN THE ASSAD! U.S. blitzes Syria with missiles to avenge atrocity.”

"The New York Times’ Nicholas Kristof: “Trump Was Right to Strike Syria.”

"Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York: “[It was] the right thing to do.”

"And of course, MSNBC’s Brian Williams famously soliloquized the attack on his TV show that night, saying: “We see these beautiful pictures at night from the decks of these two U.S. Navy vessels in the eastern Mediterranean,” adding “I am tempted to quote the great Leonard Cohen: ‘I am guided by the beauty of our weapons.'”

"The very Europeans who are so testy right now about Biden’s decision to end a war, were thrilled with Trump for bombing a country that posed no conceivable threat to us. France, Italy, Israel and the U.K. all sent their hearty support!

"That’s quite a contrast from the remarks this week from former prime minister Tony Blair about Biden’s ending a war: “tragic, dangerous and unnecessary.”

"I was, and remain, more pro-Afghanistan war and Iraq war than Donald Rumsfeld, but not so we could hang out for 20 years and teach them to respect transgenders.

Gavin Newsom Blames Everyone Else for His Recall. Here Are 100 Reasons That Might Jog His Memory. –

Pat Cross Cartoons

  PJ Media  "California Governor Gavin Newsom faces a recall on September 14 and the more desperate he gets,  the lower he goes to save himself. Odds are 50-50 that Newsom will survive. It’s not a good place to be for an incumbent. Newsom and his supporters hope to distract from the copious reasons that Californians signed the recall petition to get rid of him.

"Union bosses, Hollywood, and Silicon Valley are flooding money into marketing, direct mail, online ads, terrestrial radio, TV, and making sure that Google puts Newsom’s “Stop the Recall” campaign website at the top of the page for Newsom-related search inquiries.

"The way Newsom has used the power of his office to save his own hide helps explain why at least 1.7 million Californians of all political backgrounds want him gone.

"The governor’s campaign has attempted to tar recall proponents, including Democrats, independents, Libertarians, and Republicans, as “radical, right-wing,” “anti-vaxxers,” “QAnon conspiracy theorists,” and racists, who “could threaten California’s efforts to fight COVID-19.” We don’t know what that means but oooh, scary!. . . ."

Joe Biden

  

United States government official

Gov. @GavinNewsom is leading California through unprecedented crises—he's a key partner in fighting the pandemic and helping build our economy back better. To keep him on the job, registered voters should vote no on the recall election by 9/14 and keep California moving forward.

...I’ll believe it when I see Joe Biden come here. I’m not sure he’s going to. I understand he’s supposedly going to come here to campaign on behalf of Gavin Newsom. His popularity now is in the low forties — I think I saw 41%. Most Americans don’t even believe he’s home — that somebody else is in charge. So it’s going to backfire. But let him bring it in. Let him have him come in, and try to defend Gavin Newsom’s record on crime, and on homelessness, and on the outrageous cost of living, and on the way he ignored science and shut down the state to the point where a third of small businesses are gone forever. Let Joe Biden make that case for him. I want him to come here.. . . 

Trump's epic attack ad against Joe Biden -

Now, with America's ship of state foundering badly, the world's bad actors will see their opportunities. Most people are making bets about when China will move against Taiwan. There'll be realignments in the rest of the world, too. Already, the Saudis have entered into a joint military cooperation deal with Russia.

 American Thinker  "If you were wondering whether President Trump intends to run again, the ad he just dropped attacking Joe Biden seems to say, "Yes, I'm still in the game."  It is one of the most vicious (and deservedly so) ads that I have ever seen.  That's not because Trump has unusually mean or brilliant people working for him.  The sad fact is that the ads against Biden write themselves.

"Usually, political ads are made for a specific purpose: "Vote for me."  "Block that initiative."  "Donate money to someone."  This ad, though, exists solely to destroy Joe Biden — or rather, considering that Biden is destroying himself, to give Biden the coup de grâce.

"The ad is formulated as so many political attack ads are: it has a voice-over from the politician under attack, paired with footage of events that show how dismal his predictions and promises were or how badly he lied to the American people.  What makes it so powerful is the growing list of Biden's terrible failures." . . .
