Current news from Tim

 

[ditcherman]

So I’ve posted a bunch of stuff on here from Tim Kennedy. Full disclosure, I guess there is some controversy surrounding him and the team he was on, people are basically making accusations that he was doing it for the ‘gram, and that he was in the way and created more work for the Marines, sorting people out.
I don’t know what to believe, hopefully we’ll know, but just wanted to make anyone that cared, aware.
It’d be a shame if it were true, but I have my doubts.

Went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner tonight. This was the first table as you walk in.

Isn't it the ultimate example of how government has become antiquated?

Private citizens are organizing better and larger evacuation efforts from the other side of the world. A military that burns billions for fun on gender studies can't even do what a hand full of private citizens can.

Yep, just like space flight… .gov has lost its mojo.

The controversy was not allowing just any "journalist" take the photos.
Watch a bunch of them operate, that's why.
Photos were always taken.

No one from the administration was on site when the bodies arrived in Delaware. Biden was at his home 45 miles away.

In three years, this whole thing will be as forgotten as who won on the third season of a reality TV show.

Sure, by some.

Guess we will need to watch the news to see them land as they are received by the President.

These people need to be renditioned and dropped outside the wire in Kabul, and then give the Taliban a list of who we just dropped off and their biometric data
