I noticed that since yesterday. They’re starting a slow moving blackout of this catastrophe. But you can’t hide what other nations are telecasting forever. But common sense tells you that this corrupt mediaVOMITS take their marching orders from the White House who came down on them hot and heavy! Our enemy is not the Taliban our enemy is in our soil and they are the most ingenuous corrupt communist American haters going by the name of journalists! That single occupation, who are the head of the snake, are destroying this nation layer by layer!

The stupid and evil American Dem voters believe what their iconic hero Hillary said:

‘What difference, at this point, does it make?’ —Hillary Clinton, 2013.

I still say the IT people and interpreters and others other there who have not been rushed out in airlifts are in danger and each one of them has a loved one/loved ones, neighbors, coworkers and friend who can be interviewed on local news.

“And his mother fears for her son’s life as he is far from the last Taliban checkpoint and she may never seem alive again.” Dramatic-—and true.

Hard for media to ignore.

Did I mention lately I hate, loathe and despise the leftist biased media?

A press that is not interested in covering it past its fourth day is a press that has revealed itself to be nothing more than a partisan apparatchik willing to do anything to serve the interests of its chosen side.

They were part of the rigging of the 2020 "election".

The MSM can try to change subject. But who watches the msm anymore?
We’re paying close attention on alternative sites.

“the Biden team’s cold political calculation is that Americans won’t care what happens in Afghanistan as long as Americans are safe.
LOL no actually tear worthy as we have 10 to 30K Americans that may become left behind to be publicly beheaded once the the resident say “And that’s all folks”.
The Y2k and Mexican calendar prophesies were only a few decades off.

Te news can not talk about it with either making Biden look like he's lost his mind (which he has) or covering for him so badly the news is clearly lying (which they are).

Solution: Change the lead story.

They probably just did the political calculus, realized that the dem base really doesn’t care and let it rip. The political memory of many voters doesn’t last very long in any case without constant media hype about an issue. I would hazard that this applies especially to a high % of swing voters.

It’s amazing how Fascist this current government is, and how the media is complying with them. History will not be kind to them because as a result of the afghanistan failure, the USA has lost all credibility with the rest of the world. Russia has now become the center of security as even NATO sees the US can no longer protect anyone or anything.

NBC Today news spent 5 minutes on it. Nothing on southern border.

CNN however, spent quite of bit of time and one gal was really questioning how its all happening and the chaos. I was shocked.

I really think it was meant to be chaos to draw attention away from the southern Border.

Watching local media in Miami today, I saw about 30-45 seconds.

Absurd.
