Honestly you could hear the press just appalled multiple times throughout that press conference as he was talking. They have to be thinking did we really frick this up. Hey Trump was at least good for the ratings and was fun, this isn’t fun though. I imagine that Jim Acosta is sitting in his office now reminiscing about Trump: YouTube


“Only he could defeat Dr Octogenarian. Orange-Man was a hero… I just couldn’t see it.”

Did that happen at the airport?

Yes, on the way to the airport that "No one is having a problem getting to."

In two weeks, the average American won’t care…most don’t right now.

LINK

quote:

Western news organizations are starting to head out of Afghanistan. Spokespeople for The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, CBS News, and NBC News all told me on Thursday evening that their reporters have exited the country as the security situation intensifies with the Taliban takeover of Kabul.


quote:

But what happens as these reporters leave? It's hard to say that the bright light the press has been shining on the mess won't, like a flashlight slowly being drained of its battery, become dimmer and dimmer.

quote:

The New York Times' Peter Baker tweeted Thursday that the Biden team's "cold political calculation is that Americans won't care what happens in Afghanistan as long as Americans are safe." Baker pointed out that on Thursday there were "no front-page stories on Afghanistan in cities like Boston, Austin, Chicago, Atlanta, Indianapolis, Fresno or Miami." And to Baker's point, TV ratings also tell a similar story. Channels like CNN and MSNBC simply aren't seeing a tremendous boost in viewers.

Biden stood in front of the American people, and the world, and told them that people are having "no problems getting to the airport." Yet, since he said that we have seen numerous outlets around the world print stories and run interviews that prove otherwise. That shite is inexcusable.

AND this was after the Germans verified one of their citizens had been shot while trying to get to the airport.

Sooo just to recap... a bombless "bomber" who fit every stereotype of a southern redneck and said all the stereotypical Q-conspiracy things showed up to the Capitol yesterday and immediately called 911 on himself and went on Facebook Live, then peacefully surrendered... got it.

Rumor? lol, the majority of folks that have been evacuated are refugees, not visa holders or Americans.

The Taliban just had a Press Conference where they talk about "Break from the lies" of the United States. Really interesting to hear them speak English too.

At this point they are shoving anyone who comes through the gate on a plane.

They just want to be able to say they are sending out full planes and run up the evacuated number. It’s like the Covid ticker now. They want to say we rescued x number of people. They don’t care who they are.

As long as it looks like they are doing something. Here he goes talking about the numbers.
