Tucker Carlson: We Spent Twenty Years and a Trillion Dollars Pushing Woke Leftwing Feminism on the Barbarous Afghans, and, Shockingly, They Revolted

bidentaliban.jpg

Chuck Todd: Biden has lost his high marks in competency.

You misspelled "continency." And I hear his marks there were, um, spotty.

Todd added, "You got to ask, how, the orderly part of this, what went wrong? I do think the biggest political fallout is competency. Joe Biden's greatest strength against Donald Trump in the campaign was the idea that he has been around the block, he knows what he's doing, we're facing this crisis with COVID, we need some basic competency back in government, no more chaos. He's lost the competency high-marks that he was getting at one time, and that's tough to get back."

Look, Fat: Shut the **** up.

Much like NeverTrump Twitter Addicts, European politicians are shocked to discover that Joey Sundown is borderline **tarded.

BTW, I agree it was beyond time to pull out of there.

I also think that anyone with any competence would have planned for a quick collapse.

But apparently Europe's smart set liked the idea of America staying there forever -- to enhance the "moral credibility" of the non-state fiction called "The West."

Until Sunday, Europe thought Joe Biden was an expert on foreign policy.

Now, the American president's decision to allow Afghanistan to collapse into the arms of the Taliban has European officials worried he has unwittingly accelerated what his predecessor Donald Trump started: the degradation of the Western alliance and everything it is supposed to stand for in the world.

I don't remember many European troops in Afghanistan. Some, yes, in the first couple years of the action.

But then, not so much.

Europe believes that a US withdrawal shines a bad light on them for a simple reason: they think they're part-owners of the US military. They get to "help make decisions," which are then carried out almost entirely by American boys.

They must be made to stop thinking this.


Across Europe, officials have reacted with a mix of disbelief and a sense of betrayal. Even those who cheered Biden's election and believed he could ease the recent tensions in the transatlantic relationship said they regarded the withdrawal from Afghanistan as nothing short of a mistake of historic magnitude.

"I say this with a heavy heart and with horror over what is happening, but the early withdrawal was a serious and far-reaching miscalculation by the current administration," said Norbert Rottgen, chairman of the German parliament's foreign relations committee. "This does fundamental damage to the political and moral credibility of the West."

Well then be sure to Wilkommen all the refugees.


Rottgen, a senior member of Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats, is no flamethrower. He has known Biden for decades and was optimistic about his prospects.

He's a fool. Also, half-a-communist and half-a-Nazi.


While Merkel has avoided direct criticism of Biden, behind the scenes she has made it clear that she considered the hasty withdrawal a mistake.

"For those who believed in democracy and freedom, especially for women, these are bitter events," she told a meeting with officials from her party late Monday, according to German media reports.

Send German troops in there to "stabilize the situation" then for 20 or 60 years, Hildegard Heifferbottom.

No? Nein? Keine interest?

Yes, the obviously-suffering-from-dementia Biden, who was a First Class Idiot at the height of his intellectual powers, deserves blame for not planning an evacuation strategy and for believing everything would just work out okay because God Loves the Democrat Party. (More on that next.)

But this idea that America must continue patrolling Afghanistan for the sake of European Left-Liberal Feminism is insane.

How bad is the grabass clusterf*** in Afghanistan?

This bad: Jen Psaki now can't make any promises about Americans being safely evacuated from Afghanistan.

Via bonhomme, Drew Holden posts a thread cataloguing the many, many false and/or deceitful claims "The Experts" made about Afghanistan.


Woke Incompetent (is there any other kind...?) and coupist Mark Milley needs to be cashiered immediately:


Astonishingly, the Experts Who It Is Illegal To Dispute claimed that the Taliban would be slow to retake the country because... they valued international opinion.

Here's what our "intelligence" community and "military" spent twenty years on: Pushing leftwing feminism on Afghanistan, which provoked actual "revolt" from the people.

Seems like they failed to convince Afghans that even pictures of unveiled women were acceptable:

How stupid do you have to be to "know Biden for decades" and think he was going to be a good POTUS?

Back when the press had a tiny bit of credibility, Biden was a joke. Nobody took him seriously. It was only after Obama welcomed Biden to the ticket that everyone started pretending he was anything more than a complete imbecile.

++++
It's a European conceit. They're slaves who believe - in part at least because they must believe for the benefit of their psyches - that they are masters. This was made very, very clear to me in late September of 2016. I was in Ireland for work and of course the election was a major topic of conversation. I didn't engage in that workplace chatter but once. I was outside having a smoke and a coworker - he was from E. Europe - asked me who I thought would win. I answered, "Donald Trump." He was horrified and asked why I thought that and why Americans would do such a thing. He then asked me, "Don't you realize that nobody over here wants him?"

I replied, "Why do you think that matters? Do you think Americans even think about - much less care about - what you Europeans want? I mean, ever? Why should we? You think you're entitled to control American policies for your own benefit but without any of the blood and treasure. You're wrong. You don't. We don't care what you want, we never have and we never will." He was not happy with that answer.

As I said in another thread, "Europe" can suck my withered, chancred dick. Trump may not have been a striped-pants diplomat, but he knew what America's interests were, he knew who her enemies were and he thought he knew who her allies were.

But for four years, we were treated to the spectacle of over-educated fartpants like BoJo and iron-crotched Jew burners like Merkel mock, belittle and undermine Trump at every opportunity. They knew Stinkfinger was a drooling, child-molesting idiot who mistakes his own bowel movements for chocolate pudding. They could have pushed back against the Dems and the MFM, setting the record straight about who Trump was and what his foreign policy street cred was.

But no, they had to embrace a clown who can't even tell what day it is, let alone act as a global statesman and leader of the free world. So suck it long and hard, "Europe." This is what you wanted.

82 Is the Taliban jihadi that Biden is sniffing in that pic one of the Taliban 5 that Obama and Biden traded for the deserter Bowe Bergdahl? Because one of those guys in the photo has been identified as one of the 5.

Obama said at the time that there was no reason to worry about the Taliban 5. He was sending them to Qatar, where they'd be on their best behavior and never trouble us again. And besides, we had to make that deal so we could get that hero Bowe Bergdahl back.

You remember Bergdahl, the asswipe who deserted his unit in the dead of night, converted to islam, joined the Taliban, and started giving bomb-making seminars for his new best jihadi buddies. The guy whose desertion resulted in the deaths of six members of his unit while they were out searching for his sorry ass. Couldn't leave a hero like Bergdahl behind, could we? No, before he was brought back and court-martialed, Obama gave his parents hugs and kisses at the White House, and daddy Bergdahl claimed the White House for islam, while Susan Rice went on t.v. and claimed Bergdahl had "served with honor and distinction." Oddly, the Army didn't put that on his dishonorable discharge papers.

Only a turnip could have really believed that. I'll give some benefit of the doubt - though not much - to the LoFos who think that they can believe the news, but not to people who consider themselves "informed" or "smart" or "experienced."

Biden was a 50-year failure and his incompetence and stupidity shone through at every turn for two generations. It was obvious, and anyone who pretends to be an expert - or even just *aware* of the world - should have seen it.

You're a hack and a shill, Chuck. Spin whatever you want, but you're a dull-normal fuckwit who managed to take back the number one spot on the "Media Dumbass" winner's podium this week. Good work. You've been losing to Stelter for so long that I worried that you'd never retake the lead.

The Taliban leaders DID pay attention to what Our Betters warned them about on being accepted by the international diplomat circus. So for now, the Taliban is acting reasonable and tolerant - in their propaganda aimed at Western audiences, and out in the streets when Western media is around.

Biden was a 50-year failure and his incompetence and stupidity shone through at every turn for two generations. It was obvious, and anyone who pretends to be an expert - or even just *aware* of the world - should have seen it.


This is what happens when you replace real grit and experience with "affirmations" and Hollywood assurances that as long as you watch them and never disagree with anything they said, you too can be "smart," "strong," and "empowered."

Of course, the question "empowered to do what" never comes up. Why would it? It's not like anyone had to ever come up with an answer to that question in order to be liked and respected. Just parroting the "smart set" was enough.

The same organization that wants you to fill out paperwork and wait for a call also can't do anything to secure you. So run. Run to the airport and hole up until a plane comes.

You know how (for example) sometimes Republicans will mouth platitudes or say outright stupid things about the Democrats and they *sound* unhappy about what's going on, but in reality they are actually perfectly content with what Democrats are doing?

I'm getting that vibe from some of our betters with regards to the T'ban. "Oh we're just stupid" , "oh this was definitely possible, but so unexpected.", "oh we're trying".

Uh-huh. The longer this goes, the less I'm buying the bill of goods being sold.

Because if that arrangement dies, I don't care.

Fixed for accuracy, and in total agreement. Trump destroyed their little peddling scheme, and the bootlickers are crying that they can't exert their muscle over the common folk enough.

That was Obama's idea.
Since 9-11, he has always insisted that the only reason islamic terrorism exists is because those poor little terrorists are acting out of frustration at not having jobs and education, and having to live in poverty and deprivation.

Obama has never changed this clearly wrong view, despite the reams of evidence that contradict it. The 9/11 hijackers were all from middle or upper class Saudi families. Most of them had gone to college, several of them had advanced degrees. None of them were poor. And of course bin Laden himself was from a very wealthy family, and his top aide had been a practicing physician.

The terrorist who was running the biggest and most violent terrorist group in Iraq, Abu al-Baghdadi, had a Ph.D. in islamic studies.

But we can't let actual evidence get in the way of a treasured lefty belief!

On that I disagree - there's a feel things have when they have finally gotten totally out of control, when the crazy train has finally gone completely off the rails. It doesn't happen too often, the last time politically that I remember being as bad as it is right now was late 1979. Everyone you talked to that year was pissed off about everything, all the time, and all the news was bad. And no one in D.C. had one single idea what to do about it, and instead they all just talked nonsense nonstop.

btw, Joe asked OPEC to increase oil production to lower prices. OPEC just officially told Joe to go pound sand.

309 "This is what happens when you replace real grit and experience with "affirmations" and Hollywood assurances that as long as you watch them and never disagree with anything they said, you too can be "smart," "strong," and "empowered."

Of course, the question "empowered to do what" never comes up. Why would it? It's not like anyone had to ever come up with an answer to that question in order to be liked and respected. Just parroting the "smart set" was enough.

I remember 2020, the Biden hacks were policy free NPCs. It was never about policy, it was about orange and bad. That level of hysteria got them the outcome we all deserved. Think about it, A-stan will become a terror nexus with Iran and we'll have to bomb them again and this time there will be no allies to work with.

Most of them had gone to college, several of them had advanced degrees. None of them were poor. And of course bin Laden himself was from a very wealthy family, and his top aide had been a practicing physician.

The terrorist who was running the biggest and most violent terrorist group in Iraq, Abu al-Baghdadi, had a Ph.D. in islamic studies.

Then there is the Afghanistan disaster. A competent leader would have called out the bullshit and in fighting his State Department, Military, and Intelligence community were engaging in. But he didn't because he has lots of senior moments, so much so nobody is really sure who is running the country. The reason there was no response this weekend the only plan that mattered is the Sock Puppet had no plan and that paralyzed the entire response.

And today the Chicoms are exploiting all this incompetence and flat out saying to Taiwan good luck if you are depending on Uncle Sam when we bomb the place into oblivion. Taiwan done.

This is an administration in some serious turmoil. All the turmoil in Trump's administration that the media played up is actually happening in Biden's, but worse.

And the media, not actually being a monolith, is playing media mouthpiece to whichever internal faction is vying for power at any given moment.

If and when Democrats lose Congress in historic numbers in 2022, the infighting's going to get so much worse. Also entertaining.

I know that somewhere there must be a book that explains it, but I can't find the book. And I know there must be a man somewhere who could explain it, but I don't know how to find him or the sense to understand him if I did! Good God! What kind of a job is this for a man like me?"

... if the media is spotlighting the truth about Biden, I think it means resignation or death is on the way. Only part I can't figure out is what they intend to do with Harris. She obviously won't be their puppet (refused to give Afgan briefing) so how do they get her out of the way?

NR was one of the first people banned by Twitter back when.

He's not entirely wrong, but knowing what we know now, what exactly would've happened if Trump had tried to do any of that? What federal agency would even consider carrying out those orders?

You see this is poker and also Blackjack. You make a bad decision or a tough one, you still have to make the next one correctly. The problem with Biden is the incompetence. Fine, you make the decision to leave, and foolishly say the date. But we didn't choose the date, the enemy chose it.

You have to retrograde in the best way possible. Even in the Civil War, a unit that is going to be overrun retreats en prolonge. That means they fire their cannons and let the blow back push them back. The cannoneers use the ropes to fix the aim and keep firing. They never quit or give up their guns until there is no other option. Even then, they spike their guns because it would be an extreme embarrassment to give those guns to the enemy.

Harding was actually a decent conservative President that rejected government control of the economy that Progressives wanted badly. He did not want to pass budgets that required raising money from people who already owed money for a war that, at least in my view, had nothing to do with them.

The left always needs desperately to tar every Republican and Harding and Coolidge come in for a lot of that given they are no where around to defend themselves - its really revisionism of history - something lefties do best.

Indeed, Harding managed to rollback a lot of Wilson's federal behemoth. FDR unfortunately re-implemented it and we've been stuck with it since then.

Yeah, I imagine that China can't do any EUV right now. Capturing those fabs would be a huge boon to them

597 "most places in Africa, the natives couldn't tell you what the name of the country was, because it wasn't important. I think this is often the problem--we see things through a lens that the actual inhabitants don't use"

Yup. Saw the same thing in Somalia. Gen Morgan was the most competent of the regional warlords.

"Everything from the Dallas Crater to the Red River belongs to the Wyverns. Cross the Red River and you're in Trucker-12 territory".

Coming soon.

598 I dunno. If it's a wartime national emergency, then the environmental impact requirements go out the window.
Fab plants and fab plant expansions are being built in the US outside of AZ, too.

599 But seriously, this Blackrock conspiracy theory I just thought of has some juice. It's Section 8 on steroids, exactly what the globalists wanted to force on us all along. Naming it after the rock at Mecca would be the cherry on top.

600 Taliban announces all US troops must be out by 9/11.

Merely a coincidence that that was exactly my plan, too.

I hope the response was "we'll stay as long as we please and if you are upset about that we'll take that under consideration before we certainly keeel you" -

But that would too much for Ron Klain and Dickhead Sullivan - they've got an order of oysters on the half shell and group of sycophants waiting at the usual table at the Capitol Hill Bar and Grille - no time for that kind of reality, only play acting is what they do in DC.

602 Amazing that so many incompetents think they are qualified to judge competency. But I would have to agree that Droolin' Joe matches most of the MSM and deep state drones for being competent.

603 We're a country that has decided that marijuana is medicine, homosexuals can reproduce and have "families", that unborn live children are to be killed and their organs harvested, that the promotion of division and animosity is a "strength," that any advantage gained through competence and effort is to be ruthlessly taxed, that simple respect for tradition and love of country are dangerously provocative to the tender emotions of half-witted heathens who have never contributed anything more than a foul odor in whatever room they sit; that comfort and lack of effort are useful skills....I could go on. Yeah, we're probably past the "reformer" stage, maybe well into Later Cromwell times.

That's no conspiracy theory, and it's been reliably reported as fact for weeks. the name thing though...some of us pondered darkly at it but withstood the urge to post it...but all bets are off these days.

606 None of what is happening is being done out of incompetence.

Malicious forethought and evil planning, yes.

Incompetence, no.

607 There has been a very largish British contingent in Afghanistan since day one, not sure about the last year or so though.
Posted by Mister Scott
Yes, but Ace seems to have a problem with the Brits so just smear them anyway I guess.
The British lost almost as many men as the rest of Europe combined but Ace doesn't consider then human or something so
Speaking of feckless communist allies, I don't see any numbers for Israel.

608 592 It really is time for a reevaluation of the Ivy League. These are supposed to be the best and brightest, but they are constantly wrong and suffer no consequences. The Ivy League is like a restaurant that uses the best ingredients and turns out really bad food.

Funny, I thought it was an oblique reference to the Avatar's foe. I suppose Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are the new Triad of Inner Strength.

611 You may not remember, but we sent up to 3000 of our best men, and some women, which for the small Italian army per shift, was quite an effort And we had 53 that came back in a coffin.
Btw, in the WTC some 70 of the dead were also Italian, so I was Ok with that.
And, to quote Edith Piaf,
Je ne regrette rien.

612 Invade the world. Invite the world. Every neocon sodomitic coprophage has had this policy from the jump. The Grand Ole Pinworm has supported this garbage completely. These people ought to be delivered to the Taliban for televised justice. The conspiracy theories are simply there to hide the fact that so many of the neocons are of the ((((((tribe.))))))
