I’m actually kinda surprised that no one is running a headline with “Joe Hiden”, and there are only a handful of occurrences of #JoeHiden on Twitter. Rather a tailor-made name for it
President Joe Biden will remain hidden at his presidential retreat at Camp David through Monday, according to the White House, as the Taliban swiftly seized control of Afghanistan.
The president’s daily guidance for Monday indicated Biden would remain at Camp David for at least one more day, with no public events scheduled.
But a senior administration official indicated to reporters Sunday evening that Biden might address the country “in the next few days,â€Â according to reports.
It remains unclear whether Biden will speak from Camp David or return to the White House to deliver his speech, the reports noted. He was previously scheduled to remain at Camp David until Wednesday.
Obama had “leading from behind.” What’s this “leading from the nap couch”?
(Fox News) White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki is taking a break from her duties at the same time as controversy surrounds the silence of President Joe Biden, who is on vacation while the Taliban quickly seizes control of Afghanistan.
Fox News sent questions to Psaki’s White House email address Sunday morning and received an auto-reply. Hours later, on Sunday evening, Fox News attempted once again to reach the White House spokeswoman. The same auto-reply, stating that the voice of the White House would not be available for the next week, was sent.
“I will be out of the office from August 15th-August 22nd,” read the email returned to Fox News. Instead, Psaki’s reply directs the press to reach out to other press officers in her absence.
What, exactly, are they doing? I doubt we’ll see Joe till sometime Tuesday. Probably not live, and definitely not taking questions.
I think the reality, by the way, is that he's simply incompetent. Always has been. They're scrambling and don't know how to handle this militarily, diplomatically, or politically.

My bet is on the Joe Hiden admin attempting to create a narrative, rather than look to fix this issue, and a way to spin this to their Comrades in the media to gain protection. But, Joe is not Obama. The Credentialed Media protected Barack as the Middle East melted down, as Syria crossed the red lines, as his Libyan adventure when south and created Benghazi (which the media provided massive cover), and ISIS taking over large parts of the ME. Will they cover for Joe? There are plenty of pieces in the NY Times that are not helpful for Joe. Will that continue? The Daily Beast is blasting Joe. The Washington Post has several blasts. The Atlantic takes shots. Even CNN is blasting Joe Hiden.
Of course, many American outlets are playing it safe for the moment, seeing if they can get away with protecting the Democratic Party president, especially in the opinion and analyses sections. The straight news is going to take a decidedly Straight News view, just the facts, not editorializing, like when Bush and Trump were president. The LA Times has zero pieces in the opinion section about the worst American loss since the fall of Saigon.
This is Joe Biden’s Jimmy Carter moment
The utterly nauseating and unnecessary abandonment of Afghanistan to its fate recalls a similar humiliation at the hands of Islamist radicals in the Jimmy Carter administration.
President Biden’s profligate spending policies are unleashing inflation that is sparking voter distrust so noticeable that even NPR is sounding the alarm.
He is begging OPEC to come up with more oil while interfering with US production. He announced barely a month ago, with great confidence, “The Taliban is not the South — the North Vietnamese army. They’re not — they’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability.
“There’s going to be no circumstance where you see people being lifted off the roof of a embassy in the — of the United States from Afghanistan. It is not at all comparable.â€
This could be way worse than Carter’s Iran moment. Way, way worse, what with all the military equipment that has been left behind.
*Hiden Biden from Longview News-Journal.
In fairness to the current “resident” of the united states, this was always going to happen when the usa left. It doesn’t change the wisdom of the policy to leave afghanistan and let it burn. They arent worth what we were spending on them and never will be. The wisest choice would have been to leave in 2004.
Same thing if trump were in office. Afghanistan isn’t worth a single additional us bomb or life.
Maybe instead of spending the equivalent of $40000 dollars on bombs bullets and rockets we should have given them water pumps tractors internet porn and lottery tickets
Bo one is going to volunteer to be a suicide bomber if he might be holding the winning PowerBar ticket and be able to get a playmate as a gf
Shows how much you know. A great deal of that money in afghanistan was spent on schools, employment, wells, health care and all sorts of public works projects. Im sure a lot of pirn was also consumed (hint: afghans have internet and smart phones).
We spent $40000 on each of the 35 million Afghans
And we actually surprised at the ending ?
In 1976 when I was in Kabul I saw women in miniskirts and designer sunglasses going to work in government ministries
I guess this was “communism
Trump had committed the U.S. to leaving Afghanistan by May 1. That the Taliban took over Afghanistan in days, and that the Afghan army gave no resistance, not even in Kabul, means there never was an Afghan army.
Again you resort to crying “TRUMP” to cover over the illegal leaders failings. Hey Zachriel, it doesn’t matter what Trump or anybody else planned, this is Biden’s maladministration and
surrender plan not Trumps.
Why do you leftists try and blame everything on other people, even people NOT IN OFFICE? Is that part of the fascist psyche like corruption and molesting women and children?
Make no excuses about it this is on Joey.
Nothing like this happened on Trump’s watch.

Kye: Again you resort to crying “TRUMP†to cover over the illegal leaders failings.
There was no there there. There never was an Afghan army. For every dollar the U.S. spent, half went to corrupt leaders, and the other half went to the insurgents. When push came to shove, enough Afghan soldiers simply defected, and the army melted away.
It didn’t matter who was in charge. The die was cast by the Bush administration when they decided to transform Afghan culture, most of whom considered the Americans to be foreign invaders. Bush should have left. Obama should have left. Trump should have left. But don’t worry: Biden did what had to be done, and he will pay the political price. And America will learn nothing. So it goes.

Z,
As a soy boy you would not understand the damage done by Obama, our worse president. Just look at the ROE from that period and the number of deaths and injury to American personnel. He did not allow a proper conquest of the country. All we are seeing is due to Obama. Bush errored in claiming a war on terror. Our real war is against Islam.
david7134: He did not allow a proper conquest of the country.
Huh? Obama took office in 2009. The U.S. invaded and toppled the Taliban in 2001. If there was a “proper conquest” to be had, it should have happened before then. Obama was convinced by the military that a surge could stabilize the country enough for the Afghan army to take over, but there never was an Afghan army. The entire enterprise was corrupt from the beginning.
So it wasn’t Obama’s fault either.

Soy boy,
Obama, our worse president, did so much damage that even Trump, our best president, could not rectify the situation.
So when should we expect the corrupt Junta Joe to start the stampede of “refugees” from Afghanistan into the US to augment the disease ridden criminals from Africa and South America? Then we can add mooslem terrorist acts, beheadings and many more rapes to the gun running, crime, gangs, drugs and myriad of diseases pouring over our unguarded and wide open border. Nothing bespeaks ones love of country more than importing dirt people from shithole countries to infect our bodies, steal our jobs, and overwhelm our resources. By hey, they’ll vote demofascist in perpetuity. C’mon, man!
These mooslems will fit in perfectly with the demofascists:
“Taliban commander Muhammed Arif Mustafa told CNN: “It’s our belief that one day, mujahedin will have victory, and Islamic law will come not to just Afghanistan, but all over the world. We are not in a hurry. We believe it will come one day. Jihad will not end until the last day.” The CNN “journalist,” demonstrating yet again its spectacular misunderstanding of the conflict (which, of course, is shared by the U.S. foreign policy establishment), followed that with “It’s a chilling admission from a group that claims it wants peace.” The Taliban does indeed want peace. It wants the peace that will follow the world’s submission to the hegemony of Islamic law.”
Kye: So when should we expect the corrupt Junta Joe to start the stampede of “refugees†from Afghanistan
The U.S. has been trying to evacuate those who worked with the Americans. Are you saying they should not be given refugee status?
Hell no we don’t want that scum over here.
That’s not what I’m referring to and unless you’re retarded you should know that. Are you retarded?
david7134: Hell no we don’t want that scum over here.
Kye: That’s not what I’m referring to
Certainly, the U.S. owes sanctuary to those who worked with them.
Soy boy,
We owe nothing to any one. If you feel a need, then arrange to donate your trust fund.
Looks like Joey will publically address the crisis this afternoon as soon as he wakes up.

Actually they have to get him medicated and slowly explain to him what he is talking about. Get a clean diaper and wipe the drool.
Looks like Whitehouse Press Secretary Jen Psaki has bugged out but will probably circle back in a week to not explain Joey’s latest fukup to the non-existent press corps.

Do you really think that woman has a functioning brain.
That wasn’t the problem. The problem was that the South Vietnamese government, as was the Afghan government, was hopelessly corrupt. Aid was siphoned off to corrupt officials and to the insurgents. The more the U.S. spent, the more they sealed their fate. Only by staying could the U.S. keep the lid on.
When you’ve lost…

This is a big f’n deal, Joey!
And the entire US government (except those prosecuting those dangerous “insurrectionists”) seems to be on fukin sabbatical.
No teach wrong again hecwad back from Camp David about 1 hour away from the White Hiude on Monday morning
It’s not like he was 2500 miles away on a FL beach
Yes, John, in today’s technical world the President needs to be at or near the White House to perform his duties.
Do you actually read this stuff before posting?
Well no shit!
That’s so reassuring to hear that it’s not his fault.
