Baffled reporters torch Biden for sharing list of US citizens and allies with Taliban: 'This is insanity' 'It’s just appalling and shocking and makes you feel unclean'

President Biden was blasted by critics on Thursday over a baffling report revealing that U.S. officials provided the Taliban with a list of American citizens green card holders & Afghan allies to grant entry into the outer perimeter of the city’s airport...

.."What?" CNN contributor Mary Katherine Ham wrote ...

...Eli Lake, a columnist for Bloomberg Opinion wrote alongside the Politico story, "I never again want to hear about Biden’s competence, empathy or experience. This debacle is worse than 1000 Helsinkis. And I say that as someone who wrote that Helsinki was a humiliating disgrace."

"These are the smartest people in America, the expert class, mostly Ivy League educated people with very important titles And they're f--ing morons," Chronicles Magazine associate editor Pedro Gonzalez emphasized....

Upon completion for his mission of taking the office of the presidency through a practiced fraudulent election, biden’s marxist handlers have no further need of his services and have set him up to fail by encouraging him to commit atrocities against the American people. Thus any leftist replacement will appear to be superficially superior by comparison.

Remember there were rumors that Obama wanted civilian trials for the 9/11 master minds, so they could trash America?

The IMF and US has frozen billions in Afghan money.

At what point, if they haven’t already, they’ll realize that every American they keep in that country will be worth millions.

I read that they froze around $9billion. Divide that by the number of Americans and others that are going to be left behind and you’ll get the value of each head.

And to given the fact that CornPops last boss tossed all sorts of money to the Iranians, the precedent has been set.

“Mary Katherine Ham”. shame Mary has gone over to the dark side aka CNN. I guess Fox gave her the heave how a few years ago. If I recall right she was a newly first time Mother when her Lefty Husband was killed in a bicycle accident or such about six years back. I THINK she is still right of center.

Typical of the anti-American democrats who are pulling Biden’s strings, not that he isn’t one of them, too.

Agree. Hanlon’s razor is often true, but no one is this dumb. What has occurred was intentional.

I can’t grasp this. I keep thinking it’s a mistaken report, or a misunderstood tactic, or, or...

I mean WTH is really going ON here?

We need to know WHO thought this was a good idea and WHO compiled this list and WHO ordered it done and finally, WHO delivered the list?

My first thought is the CIA director met with the Taliban last week...

Perfect. When he comes back, he can say “C’mon, man. That was four or five days ago.”

From the article linked:

Code of Vets, an organization committed to helping veterans in need, expressed a similar sentiment, sharing from their official Twitter page, “I am beginning to think there is something sinister going on. This level of incompetence cannot be real.”

Is Joe being blackmailed by China? So when is it time start asking questions about this “blunder”. From everything we have heard Biden went completely rogue on some very dangerous decisions, ignoring military recommendations and overriding sound advice. No one could possibly be this incompetent.

I have always thought Hunters laptop has been far more important than we think. The Biden family was being spied on, Hunter was their lap dog, there is no doubt about that and the laptop was a tiny sampling of what they had on the family, more importantly Joe Biden. They assisted in getting Biden elected, knowing they had him in the bag and they own him. (The same with many more politicians.)

Good analogy!

Legislative branch needs to act to remove POTUS and many Cabinet and Military/Intel heads.

That’s what I figure. Whatever they have is worse for him, his family, and his legacy than any number of dead Americans. He lives in a world where these things blow over and are replaced in the news cycle by whatever comes next, or can be manufactured to divert the public’s attention.

If they are all slaughtered, the pesky problem of extraction goes away.

That is just how disposable we are to our ‘political elite’ .

This is like when Biden gave Putin a list of us facilities that they were not allowed to hack.

Halberstom basically concluded the same thing about McNamara and his "whiz kids" who cooked up the moronic policy toward Vietnam in the Kennedy/Johnson administration.

William F. Buckley made the same point in a little different way: “I would rather be governed by the first 2,000 people in the telephone directory, than by the Harvard University faculty.”
