The Afghanistan debacle is a perfect example of central planning. No matter how pure, how well-intentioned the plans of those who want to organize society are, they will always come into conflict with the competing plans and reactions of the individuals in the society.
Ashli was unarmed, 5’5”, and 110lbs…
I wonder if Occupy Democrats would have a different opinion on the situation if Ashli was a black victim of the war on drugs?
The words “I bear responsibility” ring hollow when you’ve blamed the Afghan people, the former President of Afghanistan, the Afghan Security Force, and the previous administration pretty much every day of this crisis. @POTUS
I guess I'm alone in this, but Biden's urging companies to fire Americans for being unvaccinated *no matter what the reason* and entertaining the idea of making interstate travel dependent on vax status seems far more sinister than whatever happens on the other side of the world
The President’s remarks just now showed a man completely out of touch with reality and incapable of doing the job. @POTUS@JoeBiden is a danger to this country.
“I have a meeting to get to for real” - @POTUS. Yeah, can’t be bothered with pesky questions about an attack that killed 12 Americans, or how the administration’s Afghanistan policy is spectacularly failing.
The @WhiteHouse is more concerned with evacuating @POTUS from any and every public appearance than they are evacuating a literally untold number of American citizens from Afghanistan. #BidenDisaster
The Biden administration has proven they would much rather have machine guns & “weapons of war” in the hands violent cartels in Mexico & the fucking Taliban, but not law-abiding American citizens.
Think about that for a minute.
The botched withdrawal strategy from @POTUS deserves criticism. But don’t buy the near unified corporate media’s sudden concern for the women and children of Afghanistan. They are trying to bamboozle you into settling for staying. #EndtheWars
Government is not a producer, it’s a consumer.
In order for the government to have anything, it must first take from the people who worked hard to earn it.
Government can’t just give away “free stuff”, the only thing it can do is tax-and-spend other people’s hard earned money.
