The DNC-led American military has declared its intentions to switch the bulk of its efforts in Afghanistan to troop withdrawal rather than rescue of allies and American citizens in the last few days before the Taliban-imposed August 31st deadline occurs. The move is being met with cries of indignation from the many Americans who have ties to American citizens and allies still trapped in Taliban hell.
The move makes it clear to those still trapped in Afghanistan that if they want to get out, American soldiers might no longer be there to help them.
Whatever the DNC-led American military says, it is doubtful that many more Americans or allies will be evacuated over the last few days barring a massive overrun of the airport by desperate humans hoping to avoid being murdered, raped, or enslaved by the Taliban, the poster children for Islamo-fascism.
The US troops will be prioritised in the evacuation from Kabul while evacuations will continue for people from the area.
The roughly 5 400 troops at the airport will be brought to zero by 31 August.
More than 10 000 people were at Kabul airport waiting to be evacuated.
The US military will continue evacuating people from Kabul airport until a 31 August deadline if needed, but will prioritise the removal of US troops and military equipment on the last couple of days, the Pentagon said on Wednesday.
There are about 5 400 troops at the airport, a number that President Joe Biden says is set to go down to zero by the end of the month, depending on cooperation from the Taliban.
All the King’s horses and all the King’s men couldn’t put humpty Biden back together again, and the polls are bearing that out. With all the herculean support by the DNC machine, its media, its cultural gatekeepers, its agit prop news war rooms, the DNC cannot save this man from his own embarrasing ineptness as more and more Americans are discovering in real time what it’s like to have a zombie President.
As Afghanistan reveals his cowardice and indifference to American and allied life, his polls have now hit 41 percent appproval, the lowest since office, and lower even than what Trump experienced while in office even though the DNC machine did eveything it could to drive the approval down lower. Humpty dumpty had a great fall and is still falling, even as we speak.
President Biden’s approval rating sunk to a new low of 41 percent in the latest poll from USA Today/Suffolk University.
The United States’ Afghanistan withdrawal seems to be one of the the main drivers — only 26 percent of responsdents approve of the execution of the plan (though a majority still support exiting the country) — and he has poor marks on immigration issues and his handling of the economy, as well. The latter came in at a “surprisingly bad” 39 percent. “The only issue keeping him remotely in the game is his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, where he is barely at 50 percent” David Paleologos, director of the Suffolk Political Research Center, told USA Today.
It’s just one poll, of course, and Biden’s approval numbers were significantly better, if still lower than they had been, in a pair of surveys from CBS News and NBC News over the weekend. Still, though, the USA Today/Suffolk poll puts his Real Clear Politics average at just 46 percent, two points under…
The nuclear age and Cold War against socialism brought about a greater need to protect the continuity of government (COG) from enemies of the Republic, foreign and domestic. The greatest threat to America for the last hundred years has been the threat of socialism (See “A Trump Return — Devolution Explained?” LibertyUnderFire). But what if America had to fight socialists on its own soil and they conquered from within by a fraudulent election? In every subdued country, freedom died, as did many of its citizens.
The military takes a solemn oath to preserve the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic. Freedom from excessive government protected by the Constitution is the first fatality of socialist governments. In this country, the military’s first responsibility is to protect the Constitution and the Republic created by it — not the immediate president or federal government. Our Republic, protected by the Constitution, and socialism are polar opposites. Socialism…
WASHINGTON, Aug 24 (Reuters) – A federal judge on Tuesday declared a mistrial in the government’s embezzlement case against celebrity lawyer Michael Avenatti, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Los Angeles confirmed to Reuters in an e-mail.
U.S. District Judge James Selna in Santa Ana, California, said Avenatti was entitled to a new trial because prosecutors had failed to turn over relevant billing-related evidence.
Avenatti, representing himself, argued that the mishandling of the data hampered his ability to mount a defense.
Selna said he did not find any evidence of intentional misconduct on the part of prosecutors, according to media reports by the trade publications The Recorder and Law360.
Selna’s ruling abruptly ended a jury trial that began in late July and was nearing its conclusion.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office handling the trial was not immediately available for comment. Avenatti and his stand-by lawyer could not immediately be reached.
The House is expected to vote on Tuesday to restore federal oversight of state election laws, as Democrats begin a push to strengthen the landmark 1965 Voting Rights Act amid a national fight over access to the ballot box.
Democrats view the legislation, named after the late civil rights icon Representative John Lewis of Georgia, as a linchpin in their battle against voting restrictions in Republican-led states. It would reverse two Supreme Court rulings that gutted the statute, reviving the power of the Justice Department to bar some discriminatory election changes from taking effect. It would also make it easier for voters to bring legal challenges to balloting rules that are already on the books.
Up against urgent deadlines ahead of next year’s midterm elections, Democrats were expected to adopt the measure along party lines during a rare August session, just days after the bill was introduced. But stiff Republican opposition awaits in the Senate, where a likely filibuster…
The House of Representatives voted on Tuesday to move forward a key part of President Joe Biden’s agenda: a massive, $3.5 trillion plan to expand social programs like Medicare, tackle climate change and fund pre-K and community college.
But the narrow vote — 220 to 2012 — signaled the tricky process facing the White House and Democrats in the month ahead, as leaders try to appease the various wings of the party.
A group of House moderates threatened to withhold their support for the budget resolution until they obtained a guarantee that the House would pass a separate, $1.2 trillion infrastructure package by Sept. 27. That bill would fund such things as roads, bridges, rail and water improvements, as well as a massive expansion of broadband.
In media news today, a CBS reporter instructs the White House staff to show Biden the poll about his job approval falling, Bill Maher and Andrew Sullivan pan newsrooms for caving to the ‘woke mobs,’ and a CNN panel blasts Biden’s ‘bizarre’ messaging on Afghanistan
Republican California gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder dismissed a column that called him “the Black face of white supremacy” as par for the course because liberals are “scared to death” that he could actually take control of the state.
The Los Angeles Times published a column on Friday titled “Column: Larry Elder is the Black face of white supremacy. You’ve been warned,” which accused the Republican of using “overly simplistic arguments that whitewash the complex problems that come along with being Black in America.” L.A. Times columnist Erika D. Smith said Elder uses “taunting and toddler-like name-calling of his ideological enemies” before belittling the gubernatorial candidate…
Talk about revolution, civil war, and upheaval is so strong that around 60% of Americans think it is possible to likely to occur soon. But while it may be true we need to rethink and reinvent society in a revolutionary manner, to reverse the war on freedom by the corrupt ruling class, the violence, coercion, and alienation that attend most revolutions aren’t worth the achievement of their goals.
If we juxtapose our concept of a peaceful revolution within, based on the UPDR Ideals (Unity in diversity, Popular sovereignty, Democratic equality, and Rule of law) with most ideological revolutions we see on one hand, the Upadarian (UPDRian), peace and harmony with tolerance and love, and, on the other hand, oppression, fear, and upheaval.
The Upadarian (UPDR) Revolution is peaceful change from within through freewill participation, it has little to do with politics beyond demanding politics remove its coercive control from the realms of faith, family, culture, and freewill participatory community.
The Upadarian Revolution envisions the devolution of political and corporate power and wealth from the center and top of society to private and local structures and institutions based mostly or wholly on freewill participation. In that regard, while adherents of this Revolution will gather and connect based on its shared ideals and principles, its effects could extend way beyond its practitioners.
What we call “The Upadarian Revolution” is itself a bold departure from what most people think of when they talk about revolution. Most revolutions tend toward three things: violence, compulsion, and alienation. They are conducted in violence. People who are in lockstep are compelled to adhere to their edicts. Everyone who opposes their underlying ideology is alienated from the group conducting the revolution. But the whole concept of the Upadarian Revolution is itself revolutionary: it does not in any way use violence, no compulsion is applied to anyone, and those who don’t agree with its ideas are not considered alienated from those who do.
If this kind of revolution is successful, there will be large-scale structures and global institutions that meet people’s needs, but everyone who participates in and benefits from this revolution will do so willingly and through informed consent. The chief problem with most ideologies is that they try to create structures and institutions based on coercion and force and they alienate people who don’t agree with their principles or goals. They almost claim that in order to acheive their aims, usually bogeyman fears addressed or utopian promises provided, they must be followed by everyone, without exception.
The effects of the Upadarian Revolution would be unilaterally created alternative sociocultural and socioeconomic structures and institutions, perhaps even whole private distributed cities and safe havens, that reflect shared ideals, principles, and practices based on Christian beliefs, values, and convictions. Beyond participants and adherents, such a revolution would also result in a more formal recognition and accommodation of private alternative forms of sociocultural and socioeconomic autonomy for groups of people who are drawn together through mutual consensus and freewill participation alone.
Too many “revolutions” have no value unless and until they dominate a landscape and create their own political, sociocultural, and socioeconomic hierarchies that dominate the lives of everyone. In other words, they don’t offer much of anything until everyone within a given land is under their rule. But, at the same time, even when they gain dominance, they tend to fail miserably: they don’t succeed in ending the bogeyman fears nor in fulfilling any of their utopian promises.
Our revolution is unilateral and peaceful. It is something one practices, it isn’t something one imposes. Even within unfree and dysfunctional societies, people who start with our four core ideals and use the other principles and practices will tend toward being more free and prosperous than their neighbors, all without needing the permission, much less the submission, of their neighbors. To be able to create positive and beneficial change without worrying about the opinions of others or who wins an election is a truly revolutionary idea whose time is now.
We cannot emphasize enough how our concept of revolution is such a departure from the previous concepts of revolution as a forceful change of rules and rulers over everyone, whether they like it or not. Being jingoistic, divisive, and hateful toward the “other” who doesn’t meet your expectations will not solve our problems in a just manner that honors the laws and nature of God!
People who come to embrace this new way of conducting a revolution within their own lives, relationships, associations, and communities on the basis of freewill participation alone will experience the benefits of such a revolution even if society around them continues its spiritual and moral decline into depraved corruption.
There is no “otherfying” your neighbors, no division or intolerance, and no hatred of others within our concept of revolution as we are seeing emerge on the left and right. If your version of society demands you demonize dissenters or otherfy your neighbors, then it’s more of the same top-down centralized control by the few over the many. We simply aren’t interested in otherying our neighbors or assuming everyone who doesn’t embrace our ideals and the such is somehow not as good as us. We reject the “us versus them” narrative.
One chooses the Upadarian Revolution as a pathway to fulfillment, to freedom and prosperity, and to actualizing God’s scroll of destiny and purpose for their lives, that which is God’s best for their lives. Beyond sharing this and urging others to consider this, the practitioners of our revolution don’t otherfy their neighbors or in any way pursue a path of coercion or control over anyone else.
We don’t need these top-down, coercive revolutions that use violence and that alienate people from each other.
Mark Clouse- It seems President Joe Biden’s approval numbers have headed south as the Taliban have taken over Afghanistan. The President is now polling at 46 percent, which is 7 points lower than where he was before the collapse of Afghanistan began, at 53 percent.
The polling was completed by Reuters/Ipsos, which has consistently shown Biden’s approval numbers to be higher than the poll of polls average, so it’s an important bellweather poll when assessing the full reality on the ground opinion-wise for the American people. A dip in this poll is signficant and could portend more bad news for Biden on approval polls in the very near future.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – President Joe Biden’s approval rating dropped by 7 percentage points and hit its lowest level so far as the U.S.-backed Afghan government collapsed over the weekend in an upheaval that sent thousands of civilians and Afghan military advisers fleeing for their safety, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.
The national opinion poll, conducted on Monday, found that 46% of American adults approved of Biden’s performance in office, the lowest recorded in weekly polls that started when Biden took office in January.
It is also down from the 53% who felt the same way in a similar Reuters/Ipsos poll that ran on Friday.
Biden’s popularity dropped as the Taliban brushed aside Afghan forces and entered the capital, Kabul, wiping away two decades of…
Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, issued a scathing assessment of Joe Biden administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan and pledged his committee to investigate its “flawed execution.”
The senator said the committee would “seek a full accounting” of the US exit, Donald Trump’s “flawed negotiations” with the Taliban, and the Biden administration’s failure to anticipate the rapid collapse of Afghan security forces despite assurances.
“Congress was told repeatedly that the Afghan Defense and Security Forces were up to the task, that it had the troops, equipment and willingness to fight,” the senator said in a statement issued by the committee on 17 August.
“To see this army dissolve so quickly after billions of dollars in US support is astounding,” he said.” The American and Afghan people clearly have not been told the truth about [Afghan security forces’] capacity and deserve answers.”
