My latest in PJ Media:
Back in September, Old Joe Biden’s teleprompter offered some reassurance to the American people: “Planes taking off from Kabul are not flying directly to the United States. They’re landing at U.S. military bases and transit centers around the world. At these sites where they are landing, we are conducting thorough scrutiny — security screenings for everyone who is not a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident.” Will it really surprise you, after ten months of this hard-Left, habitually dishonest administration, to discover that he was lying?
The reality is that almost none of the 82,000 Afghans who are now in the United States after being airlifted out of Kabul in August were vetted first. There could be any number of jihad terrorists and other criminals among them, but there is no way to know for sure until they actually commit crimes. Until then, celebrate diversity!
This revelation comes from a memo that Senate Republicans drafted in October, in which, according to a Wednesday report in the Washington Examiner, “senior officials across the departments of Homeland Security, Defense, State, and Justice described a disastrous screening and vetting process.” This process relied completely on databases of criminals and terrorists, which were incomplete in the best of times and even less useful in the chaotic situation of the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Biden administration officials accepted at face value what these Afghan evacuees told them about themselves, without making any effort at all to check whether or not the evacuees’ claims were true.
What’s more, the Examiner reports that “the large majority of people, approximately 75%, evacuated were not American citizens, green card holders, Afghan Special Immigrant Visa holders, or applicants for the visa.” The Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) was given to Afghans who aided U.S. forces during our twenty-year misadventure in the country. As bad as the 75% figures was, it represented a slight improvement over the situation at the beginning of September, when Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas admitted that “of the 60,000 Afghans who have entered the U.S., nearly 8,000 are either U.S. citizens or residents, while about 1,800 are SIV holders, having obtained visas after assisting the U.S. military.” That is, 52,000, or 86 percent, were not U.S. citizens or SIV holders. However, Senator Rob Portman (R-OH) noted in early November that as of the beginning of October, only 700 of the 82,000 Afghans who had already been brought to the United States had SIVs.
Biden himself wasn’t the only one who promised that the Afghans they were bringing into the United States by the thousands would be thoroughly vetted. State Department wonk Ned Price was just as firm: “Before anyone who is evacuated from Afghanistan comes to this country, they undergo a rigorous vet. Unless and until they complete that vet they will not be in a position to come to the U.S.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Biden and his foolish handlers are directly responsible for this debacle, but I now blame Bush 43 for all this in a long term way because he stupidly, foolishly, and even to this day, has continued to insist that Islam is a religion of peace, tolerance, blah, blah, blah, a la Tony Blair, and that it has been distorted by a handful of religious fanatics, blah, blah, blah.
Note to Bush 43: The Islamic zealots had their beginning in the seventh century AD and were mainstream Islam from the beginning. Deep shame on you for still refusing to educate yourself about this.
I voted for you twice but I say damn you. Yes, damn you. May you live to a very old age and see truth vindicated which would mean you would not be vindicated. Probably won’t happen—but it should.
My God, you have so much blood on your hands and Obama and Biden are just two fools following in your ignorant footsteps (N.B., Obama may actually be complicit but if so still a fool though of another kind).
Trump with his great instincts (though without enough pure knowledge) tried to reverse what you, Obama and now Biden have done, but the Deep State was too much against this man of action and wisdom. And you stupidly never saw this and why in 2020, by your admission, you voted for that mediocrity for President, one Condoleezza Rice, your second clueless Secretary of State after Colin Powell, who said, when asked about centuries long conflicts between Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq (and elsewhere), “Well. they’re just have to get over that.”
Yeah, right. This is how awful and stupid and destructive you have been. I wonder at times how you can sleep at night, especially considering all the US military personnel who have died or been horribly maimed both in Iraq and Afghanistan for nothing because you refused to educate yourself about the worst religion of all time.
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
100% agree.
Back in 2001, I think that Bush 43 was gullible. He accepted with the Muslim brotherhood front organizations told him about islam which, obviously, was completely false.
But, even 20 years later, he still believes the same crap – possibly to not destroy his “legacy”.
Unbelievable…
john smith says
Yes James back in 2001 Bush was gullible, he’d been told, and he believed, that islam is a religion of peace, but that was back then. Today is a completely different story, someone must of most certainly told him the truth about islam.
Both Bush and Pope Francis have definitely been informed about the true nature of islam, but neither will admit to this, as they’d rather save face.
James Lincoln says
Yes, likely so john.
mortimer says
This was the worst debacle in US military history and one that was easily avoided by someone with reason. None of military commanders approved of it. The White House handlers and the Old Puppet-Fool hadn’t a clue about what they were unleashing. Furthermore, they are so lacking in empathy and human feeling, that they threw an entire country to the wolves of the Taliban and ISIS.
Biden is not ‘nice’ at all, contrary to what they say. He is heartless to have done this to the Afghans and the region. He is heartless to Americans to flood their country with unvetted desperadoes from who knows where.
Wellington says
Biden mortimer, does not have one single redeeming quality, as I think you know already. He is selfish, possessed of, at best, a mediocre intellect (even before his onset of dementia), creepy, corrupt, mean, divisive, a liar, a plagiarizer, et al.
The man is your classic example of a political hack who has fed off the public trough for going on half a century. In short, he is a glorified waste product, proving the Peter principle superbly so.
Hank says
The Peter Principle states that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to their “level of incompetence, which conjectures that the people who voted for him must have been incompetent.
Wellington says
Yes, the ACTUAL number of people who voted for The Nothing were incompetent though this does not take into account all the fake votes for The Nothing.
CogitoErgoSum says
At this point I do not believe a single word that comes out of Biden’s mouth. He’s what’s known as a lying sack of shit. No joke.
savvyone says
Wellington, if you read Obama’s book “Dreams from My Father” you will know he hates the White race. Isn’t it odd, he hates the White race, the people who loved him and raised him, and his love and admiration goes to his Black father who did nothing for him? Lucky for him that his Black father did not raise him. His brothers have nothing good to say about B. H. Obama Sr.
Much of the ruination that the U.S. is experiencing lies on him. It was the main reason he wanted to be President.
raja says
savyone,
You are exactly right. The origins of BLM etc against whites goes back to his evil globalist (anti white) reign. Sad, how people tent leave these facts behind them.
Wellington says
savvyone: I agree. Obama is the ultimate culprit in the division which now afflicts America. His comment back in 2008 about people in central Pennsylvania (where I come from btw) “clinging to their guns and religion” was very thin code for castigating white people. Obama stoked the flames of racial division just when such division was disappearing. A kind of Sorcerer’s Apprentice was/is he.
I recall when Obama said on the eve of his inauguration that we were on “the eve of a fundamental transformation of America.” I remember thinking to myself when he said this that while I want an America to try to get better and better (“a more perfect union” a la James Madison) I certainly didn’t want a “fundamental transformation.” Obama, however, did and therein lies the root of the mess we are in at present.
Biden is a fool and a stupid fool. Obama is a fool and, a la Richelieu about James I, the wisest fool of our era. Choose one’s poison.

Yes–ugly stuff. I was shocked when I read his book.
Relic says
Infidel you’re right the great game is on again.

Infidel says
Not quite. This time, both Russia and UK/US is out, and China is in. The thing to look forward to is IS-K supporting the ETIM, thereby going head on against China, while the Taliban remains pro-Beijing. Hopefully that sucks the Chicoms right into Afghanistan, and hopefully, the same thing that happened in the last 4 decades repeats itself
gravenimage says
ALMOST NONE of the 82,000 Afghans Airlifted From Kabul in August Were Vetted Before Coming to the U.S.
……………..
Suicidal insanity. And remember, these are the ones the Taliban allowed through. Despite our falsely being assured of vetting, you can be sure that none of them will be sent back to Afghanistan.

When these people escape the MURDEROUS IDEOLOGY of ISLAM they continue to be part of the MURDEROUS IDEOLOGY of ISLAM.
Fitna says
Muslims are going to keep our cops, govt and others busy for a very long time to come.
Those in power are all stupid morons for not learning anything from 9/11. Rather than be wary and suspicious of Muslims, they doubled-down on embracing them.
So thousands more innocents are going to die (or get raped, tortured, etc) at the hands of Muslim psychos in the coming decades.
They’re not alone, the bleeding heart Lefties have done the same thing to Europe. Soon the West will start looking like Syria and Somalia and the people who created this mess will be long gone.
It’s the kids and grandkids who’ll be left to deal with this dumpster-fire. 20 yrs from now I’ll be a senior and I won’t gaf, since it’s not going to affect me anyways.
I am saddened though to see western civilization being taken by idiots, traitors, cowards (mostly Leftists) who aided the invaders and destroyers (Muslims).
Either Islam will take over due to sheer numbers or there will be civil war. I always hold out hope that coming train-crash can be averted if we get anti-Islamic center-right parties in power but I see that only happening in isolated places. The future looks grim for us.
Hank says
“They’re not alone, the bleeding heart Lefties have done the same thing to Europe. Soon the West will start looking like Syria and Somalia and the people who created this mess will be long gone.”
Very true. Good post. If a civil war breaks out sooner than later those people in power who caused it would have private-jetted out in good time leaving the mess behind them and coming back like conquering heroes once the mess is sorted out.
LB says
With respect to every American here, I can’t believe any of you actually buy this “vetting” stuff in the first place, and I’m not talking just about these most recent muslims form Afghanistan; as big as the 82,000 number is, they aren’t even a fraction of the immigrants USA has accepted in the last several decades. I’m talking about some of the most hardcore killers, drug dealers, rapists, child traffickers, and even organ harvesters coming from Central/Southern America.
DISCLAIMER: I’m not saying every single South/Central American who immigrated to USA is that bad, but those who are, did, and that’s what matters here.
All of those people were let in the USA to do whatever they want, and the only thing they needed to do in order to not be deported is: when asked “Are you afraid of your life if you get sent back?” they should simply reply with “Yes” and that’s the end of that. If they accidentally be honest and reply with “No”, then the session is rescheduled until they are coached by the feds to say “Yes” instead. This is your holy “vetting” process that everyone seems to have so much faith in.
There are many early sources (former DHS agents and other federal employees) speaking of this, but the latest whistleblower exposed this on Project Veritas:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTz7xe3TfmI
In case the last elections didn’t help wake you Americans up to who really controls the government and what are their intentions towards you–a red-blooded, tax-paying, law-biding, white American–please take a hint and understand that you CANNOT TRUST A SINGLE THING the regime says which is seemingly working in your favor, such as that all “vetted” immigrants coming to USA are deemed to be perfectly safe and productive members of first world Western society.
This latest mass importation of potential muslims terrorists is just a pebble out of an open chasm which was dug up to be your grave.
tgusa says
Former Afghan interpreter Ajmal Amani was shot dead in San Francisco last week after attacking police with a knife.
He wasn’t one of these new arrivals. There appears to be an incubation period.
Walter Sieruk says
The duty of any genuine President of the United States is to protect the safety, security and lives of the American citizen.
That duty President impostor Joe Biden completely refuses to preform, for by allowing all those unvetted Afghan/Muslims into America is a recipe for disaster.
For some of them might be secret jihadists just waiting and scheming for a specific US city or large town to engage in a murderous and destructive jihad Islamic terror attack in.
Some of the other Afghan refugees might be criminals. In both cases Biden will have the blood of many innocent Americans on his wicked hands.
Walter Sieruk says
If it wasn’t for Joe Biden who create that total catastrophe in Afghanistan there wouldn’t be problem of Afghan refugees in the first place.
Furthermore, that Biden scheme to settle all those Afghan refugees in the different States in American is a recipe for disaster.
Take England for example , The United Kingdom has already experienced many vicious and malice-filled murderous Muslims terrorists attacks ,as those ,for example, those different malicious and deadly jihadists attacks in London and that horrendous mass murder jihad homicide bombing in the city of Manchester in which so many innocent young girls died.
Another way to illustrate the folly of foolish and reckless kindness is by the fable of Aesop which of a kind old farmer who saw outside a poor helpless viper that was freezing to death in the winter cold. The compassionate but foolish farmer felt sorry for that creature so he went outside and put it in his vest pocket to warm it up and therefore save its live. The viper revived in the warmed of vest ,felt better then bit the farmer through the vest and the kind but foolish farmer died a slow and painful death from that viper’s bite.
So it might be in America by Afghan jihadists playing the part of a desperate “refugee” from Afghanistan who claimed that he was just fleeing the Taliban. For no amount of caring and kindness will change the murderous and destructive nature of a violent /jihadist/Muslim because such a man has been infected with an evil and deadly nature because of the evil and deadly religion.
