ROGER HELLE  ~ You have to ask yourself: Whose side is Joe on? Just kidding. That’s not a question; it never has been.  ~ Joe Biden has been in politics for over 50 years. He’s amassed an incredible record of accomplishing absolutely nothing noteworthy during his entire career! I don’t know if that’s some sort […]

Biden Wasted the Blood of American Patriots in AFG

Mark Alexander  ~ Power does not tolerate a vacuum, nor an inept and vacuous appeaser. In an update to our extensive report on Joe Biden’s deadly surrender and retreat from Afghanistan — still deadly today for all those we left behind — the just-released 2,000-page Army assessment of that disastrous exfil is an unmitigated indictment […]

November 5, 2021 by

0

By Kelsey Bolar ~ The consequences of President Joe Biden’s badly mishandled Afghanistan withdrawal are old news for the left-wing ruling class. Congressional leaders have moved onto the president’s so-called Build Back Better agenda, where they duke it out over how many billions of taxpayer dollars to spend on “tree equity.” (Is $2.5 billion enough?)

By Grace Melton ~ With the world watching in horror, the hasty withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan resulted in the Taliban’s near complete control over Afghanistan’s population of 40 million.

America Deserves Answers On Botched Afghanistan Withdrawal

August 31, 2021 by

2

By Thomas Spoehr ~ Viewing the chaos, death, and destruction accompanying the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, Americans have many unanswered questions. Cable news anchors repeatedly quiz their guests with questions such as, “Should the U.S. have abandoned Bagram Airfield in early July?” Others rightly ask, “How could the U.S. have come to be dependent on […]

Biden Still In Excuse-Making Mode

August 28, 2021 by

0

By James Carafano ~ The blame game continues. In his latest speech on the unfolding chaos in Afghanistan, President Joe Biden fingered the terrorist group ISIS-K for the bombing at the Kabul airport. He then delivered more excuses why the hole he dug isn’t getting deeper. After a 90-day intelligence review, his administration still can’t figure out if COVID-19 […]

Afghanistan Climate Nonsense

August 27, 2021 by

By Craig Rucker ~ Leave it to Team Climate to exploit the crisis in Afghanistan and get everything wrong. Marc Morano featured on Climate Depot a bizarre headline from Newsweek which implied that the Taliban might not be so bad after all.  This is because, apparently, the Taliban wants to curry good will with the world community by […]

By James Carafano ~ President Joe Biden stepped out of the Oval Office on Friday and delivered yet another defense of his Afghanistan withdrawal. For those convinced he’s in over his head, he did not disappoint. His excuses were as pathetic as ever—but there was more in these remarks. Biden, an inept statesman and a […]

Cowardly Biden Hides From The Press On Afghanistan

August 21, 2021 by

2

By Tim Graham ~ The very supportive media environment around President Biden has turned suddenly sour over this administration’s shoddy handling of Afghanistan. This debacle shouldn’t be buried and ignored by the press, like they’ve tried to do with the border crisis. But Biden’s gone back to hiding as a strategy, as he did in […]

Taliban Fighters Now Well-Equipped For Decades

August 21, 2021 by

By Thomas Spoehr ~ As if it were not enough that the Taliban took complete control of Afghanistan—imposing its will and murderous tactics on innocent citizens; endangering Americans still present in the country; and complicating efforts to extract Afghans who provided important support, such as translators—it gets worse. The Taliban has also seized tens of […]

Fall Of Afghanistan Seen As Historic Failure For Biden

August 17, 2021 by

By Fred Lucas ~ When candidate Joe Biden was asked if he would bear some responsibility for the outcome of a U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan if the Taliban took control of that country, he answered, “No, I don’t.” “Do I bear responsibility? Zero responsibility,” Biden added during the CBS News interview in February 2020. “The […]

Running Away From A ‘Nation-Building’ Mess

August 16, 2021 by

0

By James Carafano ~ Where America got Afghanistan wrong is “nation-building.” That’s a myth. Nations don’t build nations. Nations rebuild themselves. President Joe Biden, predictably, learned the wrong lesson. The opposite of nation-building is not running away. It is being realistic. After World War II, Japan rebuilt Japan. West Germany rebuilt West Germany. Sure, America helped, but […]

By James Carafano ~ President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw abruptly from Afghanistan, without any discernible exit strategy, has plunged that nation into a bloody, ruinous chaos. After pleading with the Taliban to spare our embassy in Kabul, he has now redeployed 3,000 troops to conduct a hasty air evacuation of embassy staff. At this stage, the only good that can come […]
