BIDEN LIED, AMERICANS DIED

Wonder how his media sycophants will spin this? At least 12 U.S. troops were killed Thursday in Kabul, marking the largest single-day loss of life for American soldiers in Afghanistan in ten years. “Two US officials say 11 Marines and a Navy medic were killed in the Afghanistan attacks,” the Associated Press reported Thursday afternoon. Previously, the […]

Coming This Fall: ‘That 70s Show 2.0’

The Biden administration is desperately trying to spin its bug-out in Afghanistan as a “success,” or as Jim Treacher says, “Biden Sank the Ship and Now He’s Bragging About the Number of Lifeboats.” That is to say, the scramble to get Americans and their Afghan allies out of the country in the aftermath of the […]

John McCain Was … Right?

Everybody who knows me knows I was not a fan of the distant relative I called “Crazy Cousin John.” The whole point of naming this blog “The Other McCain” was to ensure nobody confused me with the Arizona senator, whose advocacy of amnesty for illegal aliens I abhorred.

Gaslighting Biden’s Afghanistan Disaster

It has been pointed out that Joe Biden’s 19-minute Monday speech about the Afghanistan debacle was a masterpiece of gaslighting, in which he engaged in a straw-man argument, as if the point of contention was whether or not U.S. troops would be withdrawn, rather than the incompetence that turned the withdrawal into a shameful humiliation, […]

Meanwhile, the media are spinning so hard they’re […]

Complete Disaster in Afghanistan Doesn’t Interrupt Senile Joe Biden’s Vacation

There is no way to alleviate the political damage Joe Biden has suffered as the Taliban captured Kabul today except, perhaps, by keeping Biden hidden away at Camp David, while the administration’s various spin doctors are deployed to major media outlets to make excuses: President Joe Biden remained hidden at the presidential retreat at Camp […]

Afghanistan and Chicago

“I don’t know what everybody thought would happen. It’s literally history repeating itself. . . . No foresight in what enemy was being fought. Conventional war doesn’t beat an insurgency, period.” Such is the sober assessment of what’s happening in Afghanistan from one military source who has seen that particular s***hole country. There seems to […]

Biden’s Afghanistan Disaster

Of course, anyone could have predicted his excuse: “Orange Man Bad!” President Joe Biden issued a statement Saturday blaming former President Donald Trump after the Taliban rapidly took control of the majority of Afghanistan’s major cities. “When I came to office, I inherited a deal cut by my predecessor,” Biden wrote, complaining that Trump negotiated […]
