Reality Bites Biden’s Policies
American Thinker.com ^ | August 15, 2021 | Claris Feldman

Posted on 08/15/2021 3:01:00 AM PDT by Kaslin

Wretchard summarizes Biden’s challenging week and notes the challenges are going to get even bigger:

Joe Biden is facing simultaneous challenges.

The collapse of Afghanistan in place of a “decent interval”; The resurgence of the Covid Delta variant in place of the anticipated reopening of society; Looming inflation and economic problems in place of the anticipated boom. The unending border crisis. It’s a dramatic reversal of fortune on all fronts. Biden failed to anticipate either the events or their speed and intensity and there is little to suggest he can handle the second order crises that is coming in its wake.

Reality has gotten inside Joe’s OODA loop.

OODA loop is a military doctrine meaning Observe, Orient, Decide, Act. There’s no indication that he has the capacity to utilize this method of dealing with challenges, and challenges to his policies are finally running into some judicial blocks, blocks which have taken far too long .

"Biden failed to anticipate..."

No, Biden and his handlers encouraged all of these events.

This article has some good information on the 1/6 prisoners, well worth a full read.

“Joe Biden is facing simultaneous challenges”

Just watch when this illegitimate communist puppet is forcibly removed from office. It’s coming, one way or another.

The coup plotters have seen nothing yet. There will be no escape. I am looking at all the Joseph Goebbels pushing daily propaganda on MSNBC and CNN. Scarborough and his skank wife will be receiving much deserved justice. /spit.

Bite Me bitten.

His handlers appear to be jihadi terrorists and marxists left over from the homobama administration. They have no clue how to create and run a thriving economy. Trump handed them on, despite the challenges of a global chinee bioweapon and Davos utopians trying to crush America.

The fastest way to see leftists to fail is to let them have their way. Unfortunately, leftists always take down the good productive people with their commie economy.

The unending border crisis......

There is no border crisis. People by the thousands are invading and by design are permitted.

The way to end the border crisis is to end the Biden Administration coup. That requires a fight. Alas, there is no leader to take up the fight and end the coup

Thats what always happens when no one is in charge. Even the US politburo needs a chairman.

JUST IN - Afghanistan’s president Ghani is relinquishing power. Interim “government” led by the Taliban to be formed.

Taliban commander Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar to become president of Afghanistan.

It’s over. Now get our people out. He doesn’t have 72 hours. 24 at most.

In an interesting disclosure, the prosecutor said the government does not have closed-circuit security footage from the doors on the east side of the Capitol building.

Either it was conveniently "lost" or SanFranNan ordered the cameras turned off as part of the plan.

” 3,000 American dead , 20,000 wounded , 2.5 trillion spent, 90 billion given to the Afghan military only to lose the entire country in less than 600 hours .. Well done General Mark Milley” - - Freeper LumberJack5321


Here’s what Biden said last month:

“The Taliban is not the North Vietnamese Army. They’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstances where you’re going to see people being lifted off the roof of an embassy in the United States from Afghanistan.” — Joe Biden, quoted in The Hill, 8/13/21

The collapse of Afghanistan in place of a “decent interval”;

The resurgence of the Covid Delta variant in place of the anticipated reopening of society;

Looming inflation and economic problems in place of the anticipated boom.

The unending border crisis. It’s a dramatic reversal of fortune on all fronts.

Biden failed to anticipate either the events or their speed and intensity and there is little to suggest he can handle the second order crises that is coming in its wake.

Democrats are so lucky they own the press whores of the New York Times and Washington Post... or this horrible mess could be a problem...

(Is it going to get worse? Biden's only been in office for 8 months. Three years and 4 months of hell to go...)

Since then, Julie Kelly has detailed pushback, primarily from D.C. federal judges Amit Mehta (an Obama appointee), Trevor McFadden, and even the mercurial Emmet Sullivan.

I read on another site that Emmet Sullivan's son participated in the so-called "insurrection" at the Capitol, but of course not arrested. If true, "mercurial" is hardly the most accurate word.
