Welp, sounds like reporters finally have had enough covering for the clown show.

Are they really going with: "Trump put down this landmine and we stepped on it"

are they that stupid?

We had to leave because of Trump and Trump was wrong but I totally stand by this position to do what Trump thought we should do.
Also Afghanistan is a complete failure but we were succesful.

Not even CNN is having this shit

"We were never in Afghanistan for Nation Building" is also some grade A bullshit because that's how the war has been extended time and time and time again.

Hypernormalisation has set in for quite some time across the US and most of Europe.
Just never as painfully and confronting as it did over the past few days.

Republicans try to 'rewrite' last years history by removing an article, Joe Biden just went out there to rewrite 2 decades of history and throw everyone but himself under the bus and the Pentagon flunkies all had a masterclass in Rumsfeld bullshit but before he could teach them the jokes, he died.
The media had a wake-up call today, after 8 - 12 years of peddling horseshit they could no longer pretend there was any sort plan or better outcome there was no rescue, explanation or comfort and it scared the hell out of them.

Obama mistakingly thought both his enemies and allies would be rational and calculating instead of emotional, Trump painstakingly tried to achieve the impossible and bend reality to his will even when it nearly killed him and Biden knows there's nothing that can or will be done except bunker down to wait and see the world order crumble.

So now that 'murica has been out of Afghanistan for a while, they must be getting really impatient to start another war. Any guesses on where they will wage war next?

I just hope it's not going to be a war on climat change, because that's a war we need to actually win.

To fight a war you need to give your troops something to fight for.
So right now America like Afghanistan is mostly fighting itself.

The next war will likely be in Taiwan, the 'Quad' (United States, Japan, Australia and India) vs. China.
https://twitter.com/ReutersGMF/status/1427483442413858817

It's a war the US can't win unless they're willing to take heavy losses or risk a wider conflict.
Russia and the EU have no choice but to become allies or risk being gobbled up or strong armed by China respectively.

WILL THE REAL TERRORISTS PLEASE STAND UP

Twenty years ago the war criminal George W. Bush lured America into war against ‘terrorists’ based on lies. There were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Likewise in Afghanistan, we fought not against Al Qaeda, but rather the Taliban and war dragged on for 20 years. There is some question about whether or not Osama Bin Laden was killed in Pakistan by US forces. He might have died long before of kidney disease. Obama was said to be a victorious hero even though there’s no proof Bin Laden had anything to do with the 9-11 attack. It is said the body of Bin Laden was buried at sea. How convenient—leave no evidence.

Bush pushed America into what became a repeat of Vietnam. Our leaders were interested in funneling money into the rapacious maw of our military industrial complex while expanding a US empire based on lies and fear. The fear of terrorism.

So who are the terrorists now? Biden has already announced it. They’re American citizens such as yours truly. Biden’s terrorists resist mandatory injections of dangerous substances urged upon us by a corrupt government. We refuse to wear masks. We supported Trump and attended his January 6 rally—or we would have if we could have. We know Biden and his forces blatantly stole the presidential election. We question the 9-11 narrative given to us by corrupt government. Building 7 was a planned demolition. Scientific facts have proved it without a doubt. That means a lot of the other claptrap we’ve been told is false, too.

Just because we question the jabs, the ‘official’ 9-11 fairy tale, and the last presidential election, Biden calls us ‘domestic terrorists,’ and we all know what the government does when terrorists are named. They are subsequently attacked. Will Biden use the military or national guard to round us up and send us to FEMA camps? I keep seeing ads for employment at FEMA camps. They need guards. Why?

Biden once said there could be no revolt in America because he had hight tech equipment including nukes, drones, and F-15s at his disposal. We the people have hunting rifles. How can we resist? Well, we saw a primitive Taliban resist and they were successful. If Biden and his Marxists want to use military force against the American people, it will probably trigger a civil war. It will likely end with Biden escaping the White House by helicopter.

Quote

A New Orleans grandfather says the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) took his life savings based on flimsy accusations of drug trafficking and without ever charging him with a crime. Now he's fighting to get it back.

Kermit Warren, a former longshoreman, says he and his son had gotten laid off from their jobs last year during the COVID-19 lockdowns, and he was trying to turn a side-business as a scrapper into a full-time venture. To that end, he and his son traveled to Ohio with roughly $28,000 to purchase a tow truck.

However, Warren claims the tow truck was too large for his needs, so he and his son bought a one-way ticket back home. In the airport, three DEA agents stopped the two men and questioned them about the bag of cash they were carrying.

The complaint against Warren's money filed in federal court says Warren and his son gave suspicious and incomplete answers about their travel itinerary and plans to buy the truck. Based on that, the agents seized his money. The complaint alleges that a drug dog later alerted on the cash, and that the DEA had previously received a tip of drug trafficking activity at his son's residence. Warren denies any involvement in drug activity.

The government is now seeking to keep Warren's money forever

Quote

Although there is nothing illegal about flying domestically with large amounts of undeclared cash, federal and local law enforcement have a habit of seizing currency from travelers under civil asset forfeiture laws.

Quote

The Institute for Justice is currently litigating a separate class-action lawsuit on behalf of people whose cash was seized by the DEA at airports. One of the lead plaintiffs in that case, Stacy Jones, had $43,167 in cash seized by the DEA as she was trying to fly home to Tampa, Florida, from Wilmington, North Carolina. Jones says the cash was from the sale of a used car, as well as money she and her husband intended to take to a casino.

One of the other named plaintiffs in the lawsuit, Terrence Rolin, a 79-year-old retired railroad engineer, had his life savings of $82,373 seized by the DEA after his daughter tried to take it on a flight out of Pittsburgh with the intent of depositing it in a bank.

Quote

In 2016, a USA Today investigation found the DEA seized more than $209 million from at least 5,200 travelers in 15 major airports over the previous decade.
