Rep. Liz Cheney Blames Trump for Afghanistan Crisis

Shared with permission from Think Americana

On Tuesday, Representative Liz Cheney appeared on Fox New Channel's "Your World" and blamed former President Donald Trump for the crisis in Afghanistan, claiming he signed "a surrender agreement" with the Taliban.

Funny....the Taliban did not take over until Joe Biden abruptly yanked the troops out of Afghanistan....this had nothing to do with Trump.

Cheney said, “I think that President Trump, Secretary Pompeo’s determination to negotiate with the Taliban, Secretary Pompeo was the first secretary of state to meet with the Taliban, that was a huge mistake. The document they signed was a surrender agreement. It required concessions, including release of 5,000 prisoners. It completely eliminated, set aside the Afghan government. Didn’t allow them to participate. That was a huge mistake and one that emboldened the terrorists that we find threatening our people on the ground. But President Biden didn’t have to go along with it. President Biden reversed many decisions that he didn’t agree with that President Trump made, and ultimately he’s the commander-in-chief. He made the decision to withdraw our forces, to do it in the way it’s being done now that is just absolutely shameful.”

Anchor Neil Cavuto said, “I’m sure you’re aware that President Trump in a number of interviews said this would not have happened if he was in charge. What do you think?”

Cheney replied, “He set this in motion. He began the process of negotiating with the Taliban. He said the Taliban was going to kill terrorists on our behalf. He praised the Taliban. He apparently wanted to invite them to Camp David. So he fundamentally misunderstood the situation on the ground. He did real damage to our partners, the Afghan government, by excluding them from the negotiations. So the idea that you can sit at a table and negotiate with the Taliban, count on them to defend our security is wrong. We heard a lot of things from President Trump and Secretary Pompeo that were wrong. Again, President Biden is the commander-in-chief right now. he’s the one that made the decision to withdraw now and do it the way he’s done it.”

Sen. Cruz: 'Pelosi is Drunk on Power' - Probably Vodka Too

On Thursday, Senator Ted Cruz slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on the Senate floor, declaring that she is drunk on power with her new mask mandates. Power isn't the only thing she is drunk on...I'd say there is some vodka in the mix too.

“Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts, absolutely. Great men are almost exclusively bad men, even where they exercise influence and not authority,” Cruz said, pulling from a series of letters to Bishop Craig from Lord Acton. He added that “those words were true in 1887, and they’re true today.”

Today, Biden sat in front of cameras for what appears to be a wildfire briefing. Suddenly a staffer comes into view and slides a piece of paper to Biden. He reads it, and then promptly wipes his chin. However, he then holds the note where the camera can see it at different points. Once, it even faces the camera directly.
