DOD Desperate Attempt at Good PR 🤪

It's become obvious the last few days anyone in the Biden Administration involved in talking to the chaos in Afghanistan is trying to cover Biden's ass and make thing look as if they're running much better than they are, and score some good PR for themselves. But in the case of the inept Defense Department run by Biden's affirmative action Defense Secretary, Lloyd Austin, just took some buckshot to the face over tweet patting themselves on the back during the evacuations at Kabul airport.

The DOD tweeted complete with pictures of an Air Force plane:
 "Afghan civilians board @usairforce C-17 Globemasters at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan."
And the Defense Department couldn’t be prouder.


Just one problem, they can’t even get the messaging right. That’s not our damn plane.

It’s one from the United Arab Emirates. The flag is right there on the tail. You'd think they would check these things. You'd think..... Competence is just oozing all over the federal government right now. The fish rots from the head, and Biden has been an utter failure in executing this withdrawal.

Maybe if the Secretary Austin had spent less time hunting for boogie men in his ranks and payed attention to the business of "Taking Care of Business" his Deputies and his leadership wouldn't be such an embarrassment.

Biden’s shadow handlers picked other “experts” who seem almost as confused about things as he his. Like Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who always looks like he is way over his head has evidently forgotten what year it is.  On Face The Nation Blinkin says "he was on the phone with Pres Karzai the day before, when he was telling me his intent, as he put it, 'to fight to the death. Well, the next day he was gone."

Karzai left the office in 2014. You'd think.....

One would hope that America’s highest-level diplomat would know who the president of Afghanistan is, especially considering what’s happening there right now, and considering the fact that Joe Biden is ultimately responsible for what’s happening there right now.

When Biden entered the White House it was incumbent on his handlers, who ever they are, to surround him with competent, capable cabinet members who can steer him in the right direction and work as a counterbalance to his nonexistent grasp on, well, everything.

Instead, bad choices and Social Justice is making a mocker of America to the world.
