Trump slammed the current White House’s decision to disband the bureau, which was designed to handle medical, diplomatic, and logistical support for Americans overseas. In full, the former President exclusively...

There are many lessons to learn from the disastrous US pullout from Afghanistan, but there is one that we should take home right now: Failure must be punished. ... US forces fled Bagram under cover of darkness, with no warning to anyone. (But botched even that, turning off the lights as they left, which gave looters free rein for many hours before Afghan officials showed up.) ... Our efforts were marked by institutional failure at every level, from the lack of planning at the top to the spooks who told us, last Thursday, that the Afghan army might hold out...

A Kansas elementary school teacher resigned from his job following a mask requirement for unvaccinated teachers, coupled with its recent critical race theory push, and was subsequently fined by the district. "That was my final straw," Josiah Enyart said, referring to the Shawnee Mission School District sending an email renewing its mask mandate for all students and unvaccinated teachers on July 25. When the 6th grade math teacher resigned from Comanche Elementary School in Overland Park, however, the district told him he’d have to pay a $1,000 "liquidation penalty" for resigning after a specific deadline in his contract. "I will...

President Joe Biden angrily defended his handling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, saying on Wednesday that chaos was unavoidable and snapping when asked about horrific images of Afghans falling from planes. 'That was four days ago, five days ago,' he said, even though the images of people falling to their deaths emerged on Monday. The combative moment came during an interview with former Clinton White House official George Stephanopoulos for ABC News. Biden has avoided taking questions on the Afghanistan crisis for more than a week. The White House has been on the defensive for weeks as Taliban fighters...

Dershowitz said that David isn’t the only friend he’s lost — particularly after he defended Donald Trump over his first impeachment when the President was accused of trying to arrange a quid pro quo with the Ukrainian government. “That’s the price of principle,” he said. He later said that his “principles require” that he defend the Constitution, and that he felt that the first impeachment of Trump was unconstitutional. He told us that that’s why he removed his second t-shirt after the run-in to reveal the one that read “It’s the Constitution, Stupid!,” which he said his wife bought him...

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Joint Chief’s Chairman Mark Milley held a Pentagon press briefing today about the unfolding crisis in Afghanistan. [Full Presser Here] As the Taliban has taken full control over the country and capital, the U.S. presence in Kabul has been reduced to securing the airport as a temporary fortress, and telling U.S. citizens to try and get there. When asked about the Taliban surrounding the airport, constructing checkpoints and the inability of Americans to reach safety for evacuation, Defense Secretary Austin said the military “don’t have the capability to…extend operations.” The follow-up question was then about...

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Like many of you, I have been soberly watching the situation unfolding in Afghanistan. I know it has surfaced many emotions for people across the world, especially those who have personal connections with Afghanistan and the Afghan people. Whether justified or unjustified, war is always a tragic consequence of the Fall. While in war we can witness the greatness of human courage and selflessness, we also realize the depths of human sinfulness, as poet Robert Burns wrote, “man’s inhumanity to man.” Please join me in prayer for the people of Afghanistan, those Afghans and...

Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) wants to know where members of “The Squad” have been speaking out about the difficulties that Afghani women could be facing with the return of Taliban control in Afghanistan. The freshman Alabama U.S. Senator suggested the silence of “The Squad” was a product of the storyline not fitting their political narrative. “You know who is really in danger right now is women,” Tuberville said. “Women in Afghanistan for the first time ever have been able to go to school, do things that, you know, a normal human being gets to do. In Afghanistan, women don’t get that...

An Afghan woman who runs a non-government organization in Afghanistan had harsh words for the international community Wednesday after a botched American withdrawal and the Taliban's unimpeded rush to retake the country.. “We are seeing everything we have built so hard piece by piece being lost in Afghanistan," said the woman, whose identity is being withheld due to concerns for her safety.

Georgia's Republican-controlled State Election Board took a step Wednesday toward a possible takeover of elections in Fulton County. The board has decided to take aim at Fulton County, which delivered key wins for the Democratic party during the 2020 election cycle and has long been a target of Republican lawmakers. Many Republicans continue to claim without evidence that fraud in the county contributed to former President Donald Trump's narrow loss in the state. An independent monitor found no evidence of fraud or impropriety. The board voted during a meeting on Wednesday morning to appoint three people to conduct a performance...
