As RedState reported earlierAfter that, Joe Biden finally held a press conference on the Afghanistan issue, which was nearly an hour later than the event. Unfortunately, he only answered four questions, making onlookers even more suspicious of his ability to perform office duties.The president is Grumpy and angry Sometimes, it seems very annoyed because he was not praised for messing up so badly. However, in addition to the drama on display, the essence of what he said is also worrying.
People told a lot of lies, including painting a completely wrong picture of the situation on the ground in Afghanistan. In fact, his lies were so blatant that less than an hour later, his own government had a conflict with him.
For example, in his press release, Biden asserted that Al Qaeda no longer exists in the country we are now desperately evacuating. However, at a Pentagon press conference shortly afterwards, John Kirby admitted that it was untrue when Jennifer Griffin of Fox News put pressure on it.

Kirby tried to clean up Biden’s mess during the exchange, but didn’t get along well with anyone in the room. The president made no ambiguity in his previous comments. Kirby tried to do this in response, claiming that the problem lies in whether al Qaeda has a certain level of combat capability. However, this is actually not the problem at hand, nor is it what Biden claims. The question is whether al Qaeda can recruit and achieve a certain level of combat capability, and then become an international threat again.
After that, Biden also claimed in a shocking way that the Americans were not harmed on the way to the airport, and there was no intelligence that the Taliban would not allow them to pass unscathed. Local reports show that these days are all fake, and another one appeared this afternoon.

But Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin refuted Biden’s remarks shortly after Biden’s comments, saying that what the Taliban had done was unacceptable.
What’s new: Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin just said in a briefing call with House lawmakers that Americans were beaten by the Taliban in Kabul, according to multiple people who participated in the call. Austin called it “unacceptable.”

Remember, Biden should have heard a briefing on the situation in Afghanistan this morning. They just don’t tell him, are they worried that he will affect the evacuation? Or is Biden just lying, hoping that the media will report for him, and all this will end next week?
I think the answer is not important. The important thing is that Biden lied and people died (and will continue to die). He is not fit to be president physically, mentally or otherwise. This is a person who should be in a nursing home. Don’t take defensive measures just because the reporter prepares him for the pre-written questions. Although the media has been talking about how “chaotic” the Trump administration is, we have never seen anything like this. This is the next level thing, very disturbing.
