Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | National Pulse: Biden's State Department Halted a Trump-Crafted Crisis Response Plan for Getting People Out of Hot ZonesThis wasn't specifically about Afghanistan, but about getting Americans out of any hot zone. And I don't know how much I believe that any new bureaucratic unit would have fixed things. Still. It is something, and something beats the Biden Administration's nothing every time.Joe Biden's State Department moved to cancel a critical State Department program aimed at providing swift and safe evacuations of Americans out of crisis zones just months prior to the fall of Kabul, The National Pulse can exclusively reveal. The "Contingency and Crisis Response Bureau" -- which was designed to handle medical, diplomatic, and logistical support concerning Americans overseas was paused by Anthony Blinken's State Department earlier this year. Notification was officially signed just months before the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan. "SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED," an official State Department document from the Biden State Department begins, before outlining the following move the quash the Trump-era funding for the new bureau. ... The document is dated June 11, 2021, though The National Pulse understands the decision to pause the program may have come as early as February, both undermining the original Trump-era date for the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, and certainly giving the Taliban time to threaten American assets and lives on the run up to Joe Biden’s September 11th date of withdrawal.

I think the main takeaway is that the Trump administration was prioritizing Americans in peril, and thinking about what to do if bad things happen, generally. Biden, not so much.

I doubt this was related to the withdrawal at all - not at the time. I am also very suspicious of the efficacy of a small team of citizen-extractors to operate in an open war zone mixed with bedlam during a complete fuckup like we're seeing in Afghanistan.
That said, this also left State with no response options following the military failure. Would those response options have helped? Search me. We'll never know, though, because they canceled the program. And I doubt this was OrangeManBadism. It might have been, but the program was put into place after the Benghazi disaster - and nothing related to Benghazi can ever be permitted to survive or be spoken of. I suspect that Benghazi - not Trump - might have been the motivation behind shuttering the program.

It is just complete insanity that the Biden* administration had precisely zero plans in place to evacuate
When I was employed in Asia, my company had a detailed evacuation plan for every country in case of turmoil. They actually used it in Thailand during unrest there. But the State Department and DoD?

There are about 350 million Americans. 18.37% of them - or about 64 million - are under 14 and thus ineligible for vaccination. So that mes that the number of unvaccinated persons in scope for the shots is around 21 million, or only 7.3% of the eligible population. I call bullshit on the figure - it is *much* higher than 85 million. If that is *already* exclusive of under-14s, then it is 29.7% unvaccinated - or in other words the 70% target has been hit and they're moving the goal posts. Sorry for math on the blog.

Nope. Ya just needs the right sets of misfits IN and RUNNING said U.S. Government, and it'll soon beclown itself right out of existence, as formed. Question is, will the United States of America survive the incipient unplanned and disordered dissolution of it's own government? Every opportunity for every bad foreign actor to actually DO every bad thing, will then exist in that open window between the Fall, and whatever passes as a patch, band-aid, or New Government to take the place of the failure of the illicit Junta now masquerading in D.C. Cassandra? Maybe, but I think the odds are right now, more of a realistic chance than anytime since the War of 1812 or the Civil War, itself. Buy ammo, food, generators, fuel and Bibles.

You're not wrong. But being right about the distribution of deck chairs on the Titanic only gets you so far. Things are not all doom and gloom. But this is primarily because there has probably never been another population better situated to prepare for what is coming and make it through to the other side. At least if we can overcome the inertia that comes from living comfortably. Unless things manage to spiral downhill even faster, about the best we can hope for is to see the right split into a public facing carrot wing and an underground stick wing.

Question is, will the United States of America survive the incipient unplanned and disordered dissolution of it's own government? Every opportunity for every bad foreign actor to actually DO every bad thing, will then exist in that open window between the Fall, and whatever passes as a patch, band-aid, or New Government to take the place of the failure of the illicit Junta now masquerading in D.C.

The big sign to me that this is all deliberate is moving the withdrawal to 9/11.
When Hitler defeated France, he literally had his people raid a museum and grab the very train car where the Armistice of Compiègne was signed so he could force the French to surrender in it. Actually changing the withdrawal timetable specifically to hand the US the L on 9/11 is the sort of thing that only someone who truly despises America as much as Hitler hated France would do. And as far as I have seen it reported, the initiative came from the Biden Admin, not the Taliban. Posted by: Dana Carvey's Church Lady at August 18, 2021 03:54 PM (9p+wn) 374

294 The nurses in one of the EDs i work in all refuse the vaccine. It will be interesting to see what happens if corporate tries to mandate it.
____________ From what I understand, the vaccine is not a good idea for many people. If you've already had and recovered from the China virus, as the CDC estimates something like 120 million Americans have done, you already have natural antibodies that your immune system produced, and these give you a much more robust and longer-lasting immunity than the vaccine does. Getting the vaccine in this case not only doesn't help you, it could actually make you have less immunity to variants in the future. And for those who have natural immunity to the virus, which is a large percentage of the population, getting the vaccine also doesn't protect them, and it can screw with their immune system and make them more vulnerable to virus variants, as well as other conditions. So all this "everybody must get vaccinated" bullshit is not only bad policy, it's bad science too. Posted by: TrivialPursuer at August 18, 2021 03:56 PM (k4dH2) 394

Didn't read the more at the link, so maybe I'm way off here. But a bureau-level operation to handle contingencies could be something of a formality. Usually these situations are handled by task forces that are often set up for a region/country in question - these themselves are mini-bureaus and typically have $ and policy priority because the issue they're dealing with is "hot". At least this is the way it's been for many years, and is sort of common-sensical.
But obviously there's not excuse, in the A'stan case, for not having a very robust, very well worked out set of plans for a major evac. This is not Brazil or Malaysia or something. And it's been an active war zone of ours for 20 effing years. But my uninformed sense is that this is kinda sorta like the Trump adiministration disbanding the "pandemic" task force - made literally zero difference in terms of results, but is a Nerf Bat of Partisan Stupidity with which to wow the LIVs and beat up on your opponent. Who, in this case, can be beaten into dust with much more substantive issues. Posted by: rhomboid (OTzUX) at August 18, 2021 03:57 PM (OTzUX) 403

If they are trying to pivot back to Covid, they are on the wrong track. The reason more people think we are on the wrong track than in the Spring is because of the reinstatement of the mandates and going backwards on opening things up. Coupled with the vaccine passports and mask mandates(they extended airline masking until January today) people are depressed realizing they are never going to let us get back to normal. If they insist on masking children and then closing schools whenever there is a single case, it will never be normal again.

Posted by: Blago at August 18, 2021 04:03 PM (zh4hP) Do you realize that the logical implication of there not being massive fraud is that Republicans can't win elections on a national scale? If it's fraud there's some possibility of overcoming it. If Georgia is really as blue as having two D senators suggests, you're screwed.

4 I've said before, and I think the case keeps getting stronger (though I am biased) that it's the end of the world as we know it. The Postwar order is cracking up and the failure is accelerating. I don't know what the next world looks like, but it is unlikely to be as good as the prior one.

"If the Left really did have complete control of our electoral process, we'd be way further along they we are now."
I guess I look at it from a different angle. It does us no good to recognize when the Left has complete control, the trick is identifying and stopping it before reaching the inflection point that turns south. Because there will be a lag time between when our votes don't matter and we know our our votes don't matter.

Zero mention of Afghanistan. Zero questions allowed.
Posted by: bonhomme at August 18, 2021 03:52 PM (UW2ZS) I believe Joe's current plan is to do nothing that risks might result in US military casualties. If we take more KIA, or WIA amputees or terribly burned, among the troops Joe sent in to pull his chestnuts out of the fire, he knows he will be in deep, deep trouble. I believe the current mission he's given to DoD is to evac every American they can by August 31, without risking military life or limb, then bug-out. He sees American civilians left behind by his withdrawal f-ck up as acceptable collateral damage so long as no military personnel are KIA/WIA on his watch. His effort to avoid US casualties must include payola to the Taliban. That's another scandal waiting to bite him. Posted by: Gref at August 18, 2021 04:19 PM (AMIL/) 535

Every embassy is supposed to submit emergency evacuation plans. I know I did, and when I tried to set up the materials and means of implementing such procedures I was stopped dead. The reason given was that a morally reprehensible creature wanted to leave the ambassador with no option but declare an early evacuation, leaving the entire staff helpless and at the mercy of a hostile local government.
When I returned to Washington I asked the office responsible for requesting and collecting the plans what measures they took to insure that the plans could be and would be implemented as proposed. I was told bluntly that their mandate was to insure such plans were submitted, not to insure they could be implemented, nor if the embassies in question had submitted a work of fantasy. I have no reason to doubt anything State says is a lie.. They will happily sacrifice anyone so long as their lives and careers are not jeopardized. A bigger collection of STDs has never been gathered under one roof. Every government agency needs to be eliminated. I do not know one functioning as intended. NAMBLA is more efficient, the Mafia more efffective, Pravda more honest. Posted by: Betsy at August 18, 2021 04:45 PM (EcD5Y) 538
Apologies for the appeal to authority logical fallacy, but ...
Former military planner here. Bagram and US air assets would have been the last thing to shut down if I planned this goat rope.
