@TuckerCarlson Here's the second half of the segment, about how the Obama DoD told a member of the House Armed Services Committee—a man who commanded a battalion that helped catch Saddam Hussein no less—that records he requested had been shredded. But I obtained them and I'm publishing them.
After “reopening” their investigation into the Kabul bombing and finally admitting the bomber escaped from Bagram after we abandoned it, the Biden DoD still insists the attack “was not preventable” because…some other suicide bomber would have done it anyway. 1/
The administration began with the conclusion that the attack was “not preventable” and worked backwards, and they refuse to admit otherwise no matter what. 2/
Jerry and I reported a bunch of key facts that the Biden Admin refused to admit, including that Abdul Rahman al-Logari was the ISIS-K terrorist whom the Taliban freed from prison around August 15 after Biden abandoned Bagram in July. 3/
There’s one part of the Afghanistan fiasco that's been mostly ignored, and it’s been nagging at me. It was a decision Biden made himself.
It led to more Americans left behind and factored into the bombing.
We detail it in Kabul, but here's a summary: 1/ amzn.to/3PuzSNy
Right after Kabul fell, the administration got lots of heat about the low numbers of people evacuated. At the time, we were only evacuating Americans and Afghan allies. Of course, the numbers were tiny because the administration failed to plan and no systems were in place yet. 2/
With scenes of civilians flooding the airfield and falling off planes on TV across the globe and constant questions from the press about the slow pace of evacuations, Biden panicked. 3/ amzn.to/3PuzSNy
Like, FFS. There was a story today about people lighting homes with children inside on fire and then blocking fire engines from responding. They're burning family-owned businesses and beating up elderly women. How much more evidence do you need, @Yamiche?
lol at all of the folks like @gtconway3d who are ostensibly committed to upholding American ideals—like, say, not rioting and burning small businesses—but tweet things like #WeLoveYamiche to own Drumpf.
It’s hard to think of something more vile than exploiting a sacred day like Memorial Day to push for universal mail-in voting. The point is to honor those who gave everything for this country—not to push domestic political perspectives. This is just gross.
I might add that this is an especially gross coming from a dude who pushed the Iraq from the safety of his desk, assured everyone that our troops would be welcomed as liberators, and said it would last “weeks, not months.”
In a just society, Bill’s record would make him ashamed to weigh in on the record about things of this nature. But Bill is clearly incapable of shame and simply bitter that he has lost his stature on the right.
Once you realize that it’s nearly been a decade since any member of the Lincoln Project was involved in a successful GOP campaign, you understand why this collection of individuals is jumping on this bandwagon. If you’re a strategist who can’t win, gotta stay relevant another way
No one is pretending you’re required to vote for Trump. So, with that said, I would love for a single member of the Lincoln Project to explain to me how affirmatively voting for a candidate who wants to use taxpayer dollars to fund abortions is truly “conservative.”
A thread on the election of China's handpicked Director-General, Tedros Ghebreyesus (the first non-physician to ever lead the organization, FWIW), and how he came to lead the organization tasked with out global health. (Spoiler: he was supported by many current armchair QBs)
1/
The procedure for choosing the Director General changed in 2016. "Previously, the WHO’s leaders were selected by the executive board, and merely ratified by the Assembly five months later." humanosphere.org/world-politics…

In the 2017 vote, the leader was chosen by a secret-ballot vote, in which even the smallest countries (33k+ citizens) had the same voting power as countries like India. Who does that benefit? China, upon whom many developing countries now rely financially.
