Heart breaking .

Its scarier that now these monsters are not distracted by Afghanistan and will turn their evil focus on
destroying us using the radicalized BLM military and endless mass Amnesty and the AOC Global warming police .

No... they didn’t. They told Biden not to do it.

He did it anyway.

Biden takes his orders from China.

The guy presenting the program was born in India, and wrote the book, WOKE. INC. He is doing an EXCELLENT job explaining what Woke-ism is really about, and why it is so DANGEROUS.

“The intelligence community assessment has always been accurate;”

Who said this with a straight face? He’s the best liar on Earth.

Just days ago, a U.S. military analysis reported by ABC News predicted that Kabul could fall within 90 days -- not by the weekend.

They misread the codebook...

Admiral, if we go "by the book"... hours could seem like days.

I read you captain. Let's have it.

The situation is grave, Admiral. We won't have main power for six "days". Auxiliary power has temporarily failed. Restoration may be possible, in two "days". By the book, Admiral.

In Biden's world, 90 days was really 90 hours.

Yeah, I can't figure it out. I take a shot at Biden, saying he very much screwed up despite what the intelligence told him. And somehow that gets interpreted as supporting Biden. I'm thoroughly puzzled about it.

Now, I might be giving intelligence a bit more credit than they deserve (I worked 30 years with intel systems, so there's that). Some argue there isn't any intelligence. Those people might have a point. But none of that makes me pro-Biden. Dear lord, read my posts since 1/20/21.

Sorry you are seeing the posts. I have that user totally blocked from my view now, so any future responses to me or anyone else will be out of my view (userscript).

Does you handle stand for "fury" of "furry"? I have to ask because millennials don't know how to spell and you post like a child-like leftist.

Re: 69 - No worries. His mess on the thread will be cleaned up soon. And he got added to my gray list, so that’s a bonus.

White men are, obviously, the real threat.

Ask the DHS.

They say so in print.

Is there really more than one way to answer that question?

In possibly related news, I bet the intelligence agencies will have fabulous pride events this Fall.
