If the commander in chief cannot or will not do his job, the Cabinet should consider invoking the final section of the 25th Amendment and compelling Biden's removal from office, either by resignation or by force.

A Cabinet made up of Dem apparatchiks is not going to do anything against a sitting Dem president. We can expect no action via that avenue.

Never seen a president so afraid to answer questions.

Liberals usually have GIGANTIC egos, which means they always have to be right about everything. It's part of their very nature.

Seemingly every day, Joe is making them look like idiots for voting for him.

They are having a sad about this.

If it were Biden’s intention to deliver a smashing success to the CCP, would he have acted any differently?

The real question is: Who is in charge of the executive branch? Who is making all the decisions at the moment?

Well, we know that at least one last name rhymes with "MICE"...

Abandoning our allies? We’re funding their enemies thanks to our stupid free trade deals!

And what better way to bring half a million refugees into the US that quickly and legally. Republicans will stay quiet out of fear of being called bigots and xenophobes. Soon they will be headed to swing states and will be told Biden (Democrats) is their savior who’s given them a new life with an accelerated path to citizenship since they came legally.

The biggest thing preventing the invocation of the 25th Amendment is that the thought of President Kamala Harris terrifies the Democrats. They can get her out of the way if she’s just the VP in 2024. But an incumbent President is almost impossible to defeat in the primaries.

The Defense Department is distracted by trying to understand "What Rage".

I can't imagine the Chairman recommending abandoning Bagram Base to the CINC. But then again this Chairman seems to think he makes decisions about troop deployments/emploment.

At a minimum, Milley should resign. In this former military soldier's opinion this is dereliction of duty. The only safe exclave in Afghanistan that could be defended and used to move civilians and military out of country was abandoned? This is an astounding lack of military planning and judgement.

I know Milley isn't in the Chain of Command (advisor to the CINC only) but the Combatant Commander who ordered this withdrawal should face courts martial. If the CINC (Read: POTUS for you non military folks) ordered this move he should be impeached without delay.

He looked like this was the first time he was reading these lines and was having a little trouble focusing on the teleprompter.

Biden doesn’t know where the White House bathroom is because he has never been in there. He has a bedside commode.

“I know Milley isn’t in the Chain of Command (advisor to the CINC only) “

It’s a lead pipe cinch he knew about it and agreed and did not advise Biden otherwise.

I would argue that it is the biggest foreign mission failure that the USA ever suffered.
