Joe Rogan and others like him are platforming dangerous extremists and unqualified pundits. They simply have the wrong guests! Trust not in nebulous “new media” and return home: cable news. Everyone loves cable news!
It is VITALLY IMPORTANT that the American people remain laser focused on national politics. Don’t be tempted by state and local issues! I promise, all of the Republicans in your state and local offices are true conservatives!
The Afghan online news service, Khaama Press, reports that the United States has reassumed control of Bagram Air Base in eastern Afghanistan, to the north of Kabul, at the request of the Taliban Government; with several C-17s arriving last week at the base, carrying military vehicles, equipment and senior intelligence officials, including the Deputy Director of the CIA, Michael Ellis.
The redeployment of American servicemembers to Afghanistan following their withdrawal in 2021 has yet to be confirmed by U.S. or Taliban officials, though flight trackers did manage to confirm the arrival of several U.S. Air Force C-17 military transport aircraft last week at Bagram. Though this move likely makes no sense to some, Bagram Air Base and Afghanistan as a whole remains an extremely strategic location for staging future military operations in a war against both Iran and China. According to some reports, an official announcement of the U.S. military reassuming control of Bagram is expected to come in April, possibly as early as this week.
Whatever we do, we must preserve the vast DC-based network of think tanks, advocacy groups, and nebulous political organizations. They may not produce anything tangible or benefit the US in any meaningful way, but it’s very important for our economy and national security!
