Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | All Government Is Stupid, But Some Governments Are Stupider Than Others; And Biden's Might Be The Stupidest Yet!Why bother? Why waste the bandwidth to make this announcement when the policy of the current regime is to allow illegals over our borders without any significant resistance or flitering of them...and that includes many who have active CCP Flu. My guess is that wetbacks outnumber legal immigrants by a significant amount. We admitted just over one million legal immigrants in 2019, and if you think that number is bigger than the number of illegals storming our borders I have a lovely bridge over the East River to sell you. Green Card Applicants Will Soon Need COVID-19 Vaccine to Be Eligible: CDCAccording to the CDC, COVID-19 “meets the definition of a quarantinable communicable disease” and specifically “the definition of severe acute respiratory syndromes” under Presidential Executive Order 13674, thus making it a “Class A Inadmissible Condition.” Vaccine refusal without an adequate reason would render the applicant inadmissible. Specifically, the CDC said: “If an applicant refuses one or more doses of a COVID-19 vaccine series that is medically appropriate for the applicant, it should be documented that the vaccine requirements are not complete and that the applicant refuses vaccination. This applicant is Class A and is inadmissible to the United States.”So we hold potential legal immigrants to a higher standard than those who simply crash the border. Those legal folks are by the most important measure (respect for our laws) already better potential citizens than the scum who break our laws by crossing into America illegally and then disappear into further illegality by using forged or stolen identification to qualify for the vast amount of money available to them from government programs. The legal folks of course are far more apt to become productive members of society, even assuming that they are coming here on the coattails of anchor babies and other unwise legal means of immigration. But the real reason for the ridiculous double standard is optics. The Biden regime wants America to have some plausible reason on which to base its assumption that the administration is actually doing something minimally competent, when in reality it is an ineffectual policy that does nothing to protect Americans from communicable disease. And lest you think this is a one-off... Here is a text from someone who is involved in the chaotic retreat from Afghanistan, provided by a long-time commenter. I actually spent most of the day on Thursday trying to source additional aircraft for some of these folks and even a couple of government agencies whose existing contractors pulled their aircraft out of rotation after taking ground fire. Was on a concall which included folks on the ground at HKIA when the bombs went off. It's really bad over there. Even worse than the news is showing. There's no fuel left at HKIA since early in the week, so the only aircraft that can get in and out have to have range for a round trip. The civilians who have been coordinating air traffic evacuated Thursday morning. Sadly, it's only gonna get worse...and this whole disaster (and what's to come) was all 100% avoidable. I also will give a shout out to Franklin Graham and the folks at Samaritan's Purse. They are in the thick of it and have been really moving a lot of folks out. They immediately chipped in to help one of the child protection/trafficking interdiction orgs that I work closely with.I have no way to confirm this, so take it as a single data point. But the fuel situation has been reported by others. And that in a nutshell is the problem. The United States armed forces have been justifiably proud of its logistics expertise. As many are aware, the ability to supply armies is often what wins wars, yet we cannot supply fuel to maximize airlift capacity for just a few weeks? That is a failure of command, and an indication that we are no longer a serious country. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

The current ruling elite in the USA do not want us to be a serious country. They want us to be a 2nd world shithole on the way to being a 3rd world shit hole. So much easier to control the masses that way. Even with the lowly serfs having guns a starving population can be handled much more readily.

I'm surprised to find that the military that runs ships into cargo freighters is having a hard time of it with an airlift. Top men. You can take some solace in knowing that the nobodies of minimal rank who buy the farm in this madness were no doubt harangued about white supremacy and faggotry of various kinds.

This government is made up of autocratic managers, they pushed to own a kingdom and have no idea how to run it outside of the rule book and have no idea who to trust to give them ideas when the conditions go sour.
Leadership has collapsed and so has all communication. In its place there are individuals and groups who only can tend to their own areas of expertise, and are grinding down on those areas because it is the only surety there is in the face of this fast-moving disaster. There is no coordination, no creativity, only petty rule making and threats. The only concerns for those who have abdicated their responsibility is "how do I get out alive" and "who do I blame" At some point Biden and who remain with him are going to have to rely on the kindness of strangers, and most of them either hate him and what he represents or are planning to rob him blind and leave him in a ditch.

He has "experts" that are tied to China, and/or Muslim Brotherhood ... Gifting Bagram in the middle of the night, and the $85B in hardware, and 100s (1000s?) of hostages placed under Taliban control, even giving them the lists with addresses. ...

My guess is that wetbacks outnumber legal immigrants by a significant amount.
--- I live in Southern New Mexico and with my limited view of the situation I have eyes on seen groups of illegals hitchhiking south of Deming, people moving through the desert, and groups walking up to the Columbus border crossing and surrendering. When I am out in these regions you see the border patrol swarming the area and encountering groups with great regularity. In areas with strategic views one will encounter US Army electronic surveillance trucks doing their ever mysterious missions. In Sunland Park, just west of Juarez there is a huge gap in the wall - it is an interesting place. I have read reports that holding facilities in El Paso are maxed out too. I now consider traveling along the southern border, especially alone, to be an at risk event; break down at night and you could have a life changing experience.

To be fair to those organizing the airlift, that amount of fuel might not be doable except by railroad tanker car, or pipeline...and things just got disrupted. Things that might be at play:
1. Nations the pipelines come from might not be allowing flow, due to change in regime. American diplomatic means should allow for this to not be an issue. 2. The Taliban won't allow flow unless we unfreeze funds. 3. We don't want to leave a full tank when we leave, for a variety of reasons...we intend to cripple their use of aviation assets for the coming civil war, and having frozen their liquid assets, they might have a hard time paying for it. My personal guess as to the reason. 4. Also...helps be a talking point for "we had to leave"/"don't need civilians coming in to help". Posted by: Baron bon Mot at August 29, 2021 12:03 PM (egOCw) 189

The official coof hospital protocol is to give you nothing that might help you while the disease is at an early stage and you have a chance of being treated, and then when you degenerate badly enough, put you on a vent to make sure that you die.

hahaha, from the article about the equipment we gave the Taliban:
"Retired U.S. Army General Joseph Votel, who oversaw U.S. military operations in Afghanistan as head of U.S. Central Command from 2016 to 2019, said most of the high-end hardware captured by the Taliban, including the aircraft, was not equipped with sensitive U.S. technology."

"For Biden -- whose late son Beau Biden served in Iraq -- the loss must have been particularly painful." ____________ They keep trying to portray Beau as if he was an actual soldier.

He was in Iraq for less than a year, and he kept his "day job" during his deployment, which was being Delaware AG.

Very polite. Both guys said I made a great shot, and it was not a great shot, etc. But just as I was leaving, the white guy said to his younger companion. Hey Jussie, blah blah blah.

He talked about how he had gone to a meeting with Frank Biden (Joe's brother) and some other people, to make the deal. Beau Biden appeared at the meeting and warned everybody present that they must never speak in public about the deal, or reveal to anyone the terms, or the Bidens would deny any knowledge of them and the deal. It was clear that Beau Biden was part of the family's crooked influence-peddling business, was aware of its impropriety (if not outright illegality) and was facilitating it anyway.

I caught the covid about 20 days ago. No medicine at all except tylenol. Dry cough, headache, no smell, no energy. Otherwise, for me, less than a cold because not much congestion in my head/sinuses/throat. Now I am happy I am naturally immunized.
Someone said something on one of the ONT that was interesting. That the vaccine creates a single target, the protein encoded by the vaccine, that the virus needs to mutate away from. So the vaccine selects for new variants. And it is relatively easy for that one change to occur. Whereas if we relied on on natural immunity, it is a lot harder for the virus, because it would need to change many targets. Posted by: MikeM at August 29, 2021 12:19 PM (jbRB1) 248

I went to the New Mexico State University football game last night. As is usual for here there was decent size group of National Guard members there in uniform. They were all young, exactly the same ages as those blown up. By proxy I was able to look into these faces. The bastard children that burn down everything get the headlines while the young men and women in uniform, that understand service and sacrifice, were doing the work of building some greater than themselves.

LASue helpfully linked an interview with Kash Patel yesterday - he was chief of staff to the acting SecDef after the election, and directly involved in planning/action for "deal" with Taliban.
As I said yesterday, while it's a good interview it leaves me with more questions than answers about specifics. My fault for not following things - but I stopped following A'stan about 2005 or so, despite being more/less in the biz, figuring essential mission accomplished and, well, Afghanistan. Kash did not lay out in detail what the current crew did/didn't do since Jan. 20, which is what I want to know. Just that they dropped the ball, moved the deadline, etc. His bottom line is surely correct but the details matter, at least to me. Posted by: rhomboid (OTzUX) at August 29, 2021 12:24 PM (OTzUX) 268

Posted by: Methos at August 29, 2021 12:23 PM (kOpft) Yes, my advice would be to do everything you can to avoid getting to the point where you have to go to the hospital if you get sick. Get in the best shape that you can, take prophylactics that help keep your immune system in good shape, eat well. If you do get sick, really start on the treatment protocols that are out there that you can administer to yourself that have been shown to help. I've fallen down in that area myself, due to an injury months back that made it hard for me to get my daily exercise. I need to build my cardiovacular system back up.

Over. https://tinyurl.com/58xswe9m Posted by: LASue at August 29, 2021 11:38 AM (Ed8Zd) I'm watching the Patel interview now. It's infuriating. Michael Lewis wrote a book called The Fifth Risk. The premise of the book is that when Obama transitioned documents over to the incoming Trump administration, Trump's people had no interest in it. Because of this, Lewis wrote, Trump would not be able to use that institutional knowledge to handle fires that would occur in his presidency. Looking back on this now, all those fears were unfounded. Patel is saying that Biden willingly ignored all the transition docs about Afghanistan, directly causing all the trouble we see now. White supremacy became the primary focus, not getting out of Afghanistan. Biden broke all the agreements that Trump made with the Taliban and the Afghan gov't. Biden poisoned the well, and Biden caused all of this. All of it. Posted by: Darrell Harris at August 29, 2021 12:36 PM (T4FY+) 323

Someone is posting that the US has evacuated close to 120,000 from Kabul though it isn't clear what date they started counting from. But in two weeks, that's about 8,000 a day. Or something like 16 flights of a C-17 at max capacity. That seems optimistic and inflated to me.

Beau died of cancer. Biden had time to say good-bye, knowing his son was dying from natural causes, completely out of his hands. The 13 died from terrorists, who Biden's idiots' released from Bagram, in a situation completely avoidable if Biden's whole Administration wasn't up to its neck in evil and stupidity. There is no comparability in those two.

330 Someone is posting that the US has evacuated close to 120,000 from Kabul though it isn't clear what date they started counting from. But in two weeks, that's about 8,000 a day. Or something like 16 flights of a C-17 at max capacity. That seems optimistic and inflated to me.
I have also heard that terrorists occupy some portion of the airport. I can't confirm this though. It's hard to imagine conducting flight operations under direct fire. And the fuel situation has been on my mind too. I would not want to be one of the people assigned to refueling operations. It's the 29th and evening in Kabul. Time is running out and frankly may have run out for a lot of people on that tarmac. Posted by: WarEagle82 at August 29, 2021 12:38 PM (+Kpte) US flights have evacuated a little over 80,000 persons. A number Our Betters rarely tell us peons. Posted by: Gref at August 29, 2021 12:42 PM (AMIL/) 344
That RedState article about the US being offered control of Kabul is, like so much any more, a bunch of conclusions and assertions without details to back them up.
The US didn't have the numbers or kind of forces in place to secure Kabul, as the Afghan army and regime disintegrated. That disintegration included inside the city and immediate area. A few "elite" Afghan units didn't melt away, some have been at the airport with us. But the US would have had to provide all the muscle and personnel to control the city. Given the actual mission (evacuation), it would have ended up being an extended perimeter for the airport, with a corridor to the mission downtown (several well informed people posted graphics of what it would entail). It will come down to 2 keys - not having a functioning information system (can't even call it "intelligence", we're talking basic info on one's own side of the conflict) that tracked the disintegration, and not (apparently) having a menu of options for evacuation in a non-permissive environment of the sort that developed. At least looks that way. But, again, don't really know enough to say. Posted by: rhomboid (OTzUX) at August 29, 2021 12:42 PM (OTzUX) 345

a big takeaway from Kash and their plans ... when Biden took control, Biden's people had little interest in details of that plan, and a priority was stated "White Supremacists are the nation's biggest threat". Kash says resources shift when priorities like that are made ...
also, since it was conditions based withdrawal, multiple conditions were broken, and Biden surrendering the base just blew up everything. kash interview https://tinyurl.com/58xswe9m my guess is we have to retake Bagram? ... and keep it as a base for the region, but idk, maybe it is too late to save ? anything?

illinwek, thanks for reminding me - Kash also made a reference to maintaining a counter-terror capability in Afghanistan, pretty clear he meant at Bagram. The acting SecDef also made this sort of assertion in an interview.
???? Again, details were not provided, AFAIK, kind of confusing, but it's pretty hard to believe the Taliban agreed to even a framework in which the US would maintain a military presence in-country. Pretty hard = impossible. Leaving aside the practicalities of such a situation. This somewhat vague claim needs to be fleshed out, like so many others.

Just caught a nap. Still have power, oddly enough. The wind is kicking up and there's some rain, but not too bad. The storm has apparently made landfall. Every minute I have power is borrowed time, lemme tell ya. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius at August 29, 2021 01:01 PM (+nNqu) 418
386 The USAF is keeping a rotation of KC-135 and KC-10 tankers on the main egress route to make up for lack of fuel at KBL. The newest 135 I have observed was 58 years old!!
Posted by: Good Scott at August 29, 2021 12:55 PM (k/hUJ) USAF planes have to fly a dog-leg east then north to not go over Iran. I do not know about NATO aircraft, or US and foreign civilian planes.

Leaving aside the practicalities of such a situation. This somewhat vague claim needs to be fleshed out, like so many others.

Whoa, IDA is hitting New Orleans pretty strongly. Possible less surge and flooding than Katrina. I hope they have better flood mitigation and so on now.

Posted by: PaleRider is simply Irredeemable at August 29, 2021 *** The mayor, LaToya the Destroya, is the one who said that. She meant that it apparently takes time to institute the contra-flow, the arrangement where all the lanes of the major highways are used to let people leave. Not that it worked in Katrina -- I was stuck in that, and the inbound lanes of US 61 were completely clear while the outbound were jammed. I hate heat and humidity too. Haven't left because I need this thing called a "job," and during Jugears' time the job market was lousy. It got better briefly under Trump, and now we're back in disaster time.

> As many are aware, the ability to supply armies is often what wins wars, yet we cannot supply fuel to maximize airlift capacity for just a few weeks?
>That is a failure of command, and an indication that we are no longer a serious country. In part it's a natural consequence of turning the armed forces into a glorified jobs program/slush fund/social engineering experiment. This has been true for a while, but America consisted of different people 20-30 years ago who could still pull off complex logistical operations in the field. Vibrantly enriched America is not the same country, and our new-look Woke Tranny Grrrl-power military of 2021 simply lacks the capability, much like any other third world country. The other part, of course, is that what brought us to this state of affairs was not merely incompetence or failure, but active sabotage.

@BunnyFooFoo, I've been bemused for some time by the growth of Special Operations Command far beyond what's needed to arm, train, and sustain a relatively small group of SOF operators in the field. I have become convinced that everyone serious in the armed forces is migrating over to there and leaving behind their parent services for exactly that reason. In The Centurions, Larteguy postulated that there should be two armies, one for the parade ground and one that actually does the business of fighting. We are now at that point.

Iran allows civilian overflights. Done it many times going to and from Afghanistan on Safi or Flydubai. I know someone who was flying civilian from Kabul to Herat and Herat was fogged in, so the plane just went on to its next scheduled stop in Tehran. The Americans had to stay on the plane because Iran would not let them deplane, and it eventually went back to Herat. Posted by: Caesar North of the Rubicon at August 29, 2021 01:45 PM (BMmaB) 464
