“Absolutely, I’m afraid of a Benghazi 2.0. I think that this is something that many of us have worried about for weeks now as we have watched this scene deteriorate in Afghanistan.”
As a reminder to regular readers and to any new readers, late Ambassador Chris Stevens was a boyhood friend of mine, and I take serious umbrage at his memory being desecrated and/or used as some sort of shorthand for Democratic Party failure by rightwing gas bags like Ernst.

Hello TG. The elected Republican thugs of the tRump cult are desperate for anything to stick they can use against Biden. At the same time they are terrified it will come out how deeply involved those same elected Republicans cult members were involved with tRump in the Jan 6th insurrection riots. Hugs

Ernst is further proof that the senate is an antiquated institution that needs to be shuttered. Fools like Joni when they aren’t voting NO on vital legislation that benefits all americans, waste their time fellating their billionaire donors when they’re not fellating the worthless beltway media acting like assclowns for camera time and unearned publicity.

Meanwhile, in the real world, Benghazi can be blamed on republicans defunding the
policeembassies and Afganistan can be blamed on republicans negotiating with terrorists.LikeLiked by 8 people

OMG!!! Heaven forbid this turn into another Benghazi! You know, where we effectively orchestrated a change of regime in a foreign country and rid the world of a terrorist supporting dictator in about 6 months at the cost of 4 American lives. Boy Howdy, I sure am glad that Afghanistan didn’t turn out that way! A 20 year conflict that accomplishes nothing at the cost of over 6000 American lives was a MUCH better outcome.

The Republicans will start their “Who lost Afghanistan” operation to distract from the January 6 Commission and to inflame the (chicken)hawks so they can steamroll the Democrats in 2022. Organize!!!
