U.S. Veterans Decry Biden’s Afghanistan Failure

U.S. Veterans Decry Biden’s Afghanistan Failure

Biden has turned his back on America. His lack of response and leadership in this crisis is so appalling, that it’s hard to even wrap your mind around. Does he really think the Taliban have our best interest at heart? How incompetent is he? They are now in control of billions of dollars of our U.S. military equipment and gear, yet they are going to work with us to try and help us? None of this makes sense, and it’s truly a tragedy at the hands of our administration. Joe Collins III, California Congressional Candidate (R), and U.S. Navy Veteran, details Biden’s lack of response in Afghanistan, and how he is taking action to impeach Biden.

It’s Only Going to Get Worse in Afghanistan

Just yesterday, the U.S. Embassy sent out a message, urging Americans to evacuate and avoid the gates at the airport in Kabul. Mike Slater, desperate for hope, thought maybe, just maybe, the American military wanted to start some type of operation to gain control and help the stranded to safety. Now, we are all faced with reports of the bombings in Kabul, causalities reported, and even reports of an Italian plane being shot at during takeoff. Nearly two dozen San Diego students and families are now trapped in Afghanistan, and hope is now diminishing as the Afghanistan crisis worsens.

Biden’s Disaster is Now a Hostage Crisis

Biden’s Disaster is Now a Hostage Crisis

We are in the midst of one of the largest hostage crises in American history. The administration is clueless as to how many Americans are actually stranded, and we are just six days away from the Taliban’s ‘red line.’ How is it going to be possible that the U.S. evacuates all those stranded in Afghanistan, when they have no control over anything anymore, and they are at the mercy of the Taliban? Here we have White House Spokesperson, Jen Psaki, saying they will help those who WANT to come home. The government are implying that people DON’T want to come home? This administration needs to get a grip, because this is an embarrassing failure for the ages. Mike Slater spreads the word on how President Biden is trying to trick you, and how he plans to deflect from the crisis.

American citizens stranded in Afghanistan have no way of getting to the airport. Have you seen the horrific scenes in and around Kabul? Chaos and desperation ensue, as the Taliban have completely taken over. Others are working all around the world to get those stranded out of Afghanistan, but our administration has no lack of accountability, and is just deflecting on its abysmal failures. President Biden and our administration have humiliated us, and no American likes that. Lt. Col. James Jay Carafano, Vice President for National Security and Foreign Policy at the Heritage Foundation, joins us to discuss how Biden has lost our country.

COVID-19: The Fear of Contagion

COVID-19: The Fear of Contagion

Fear makes people do irrational things. When people are scared, they do things that they never would have even dreamed of doing. Hence the fear-mongering amongst the COVID-19 pandemic. Australians killing dogs due to COVID-19 restrictions, requiring two-year olds to wear masks, doctors refusing to treat unvaccinated patients, taking children away from in-person learning; These examples all stem from a place of fear. Mike Slater shares his perspective on how fear makes people to irrational things and leads people to do the unthinkable, and how this all ties in to why we can’t trust our experts.

The Taliban’s Spoils of War Jackpot

The Taliban’s Spoils of War Jackpot

The Taliban may have gotten the biggest U.S. military jackpot in the history of the world, and now they are not only mocking President Biden by wearing OUR U.S. military gear, but the Taliban also mocked the iconic WWII photo of U.S. Marines raising the flag on Iwo Jima. There is no doubt that this is all Biden’s fault. It’s a full-on failure, and the Taliban are making a mockery out of us and our weak government. Mike Slater shares his thoughts on the absolute disgrace of an administration and its catastrophic attempt of a withdrawal in Afghanistan.
