seems like new Latino Churches are radicalizing Latinos as well.

Unfortunately, I have a good amount of anecdotal evidence to back this up. Makes me nostalgic for the days when I was just fighting Vatican poison.

Would be great if we found out that he does use Pfizer's Viagra.

C’mon, man, put this behind a spoiler. some people read this while they’re eating.

You do realize that it took more than 7 months to build the Afghan security forces, right? Biden didn't give the Afghan government money and equipment as soon as he was sworn in. The "300k soldiers" on paper is not
the work of the Biden administration; it's the work of all the administrations prior to his, starting with Bush Jr.

The only way Biden owns this conflict is if he decides to go against what was the unspoken Afghan policy of the US over the last 20 years: keep one foot out at all times.

Of course he doesn’t own this whole conflict.

There’s no way to spin that this administration miscalculated how quickly Taliban would take over:

Biden said the Afghan military was “better trained, better equipped and more competent in terms of conducting war” than the Taliban, who were “highly unlikely” to end up “overrunning everything and owning the whole country”.

On paper.
The miscalculation happened long before Biden took office, and it's spelled out in the article I posted: the idea of a national Afghan army couldn't work because tribal loyalties are much stronger than loyalty to a united Afghanistan.

Yes, Biden said what he said, and what he said was based on assessments and reports that have prioritized/elevated the material contribution of American forces and downplayed the ethnic dimension of the Afghan problem.

The choice to ignore the impact of tribal allegiances in the rebuilding process of the Afghan security forces and government was part of the US policy in Afghanistan since the invasion 20 years ago, and the result of that oversight was watching tribal leaders allow the Taliban to come back without resistance and a crooked president give up and run away from his country.

You just can't pin this situation on the guy who decides to stop the charade.

This is one of the most outrageous criticisms of Obama. Yet they didn’t say anything about Trumps oversized suits, extra long ties or platform shoes. Make it make sense.

Don't forget the diapers.

Hopefully, some of y'all are done eating.

It should be noted that he made those comments at a fundraiser in Tennessee, and the house he's standing in front of is a custom built home that is a replica of the Mississippi governor's mansion. I couldn't make that up if I tried.
