DAILY BIBLE VERSE

13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

1 Corinthians 13:13 KJV


Resign

By Mike Huckabee

Columnist and military veteran Kurt Schlichter, in his own inimitable way, delivers a message to all the incompetent top military brass who prioritized protecting their careers over protecting our troops and who stood by and said and did nothing as our "Commander-in-Chief" instituted the most transparently dangerous and idiotic pullout plan in history:

RESIGN!

https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2021/08/27/resign-n2594830?270

By the way, that message should not be limited to only the top military brass. There's a long list of people it should be cc'ed to.

Afghanistan Updates

He said it, not me

By Mike Huckabee

If I compared President Biden’s Afghanistan debacle to the Bay of Pigs, called the suicide bombing that killed 13 US service members the “worst day in his Administration,” and said that because of the way the withdrawal was handled, the situation is now more dangerous and difficult and we’ll have to send more troops back in for counterterrorism operations, I would be blasted by some on the left as a biased Republican “pouncing” on Biden.

Fortunately, I don’t have to say any of those things because Barack Obama’s former Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta said them for me.

Defending the Indefensible

By Mike Huckabee

President Biden’s supporters in the media are once again proving that they will go to any lengths to defend the indefensible. In the latest example, they’re circulating the photo of him with his head down at the press conference and saying Trump didn’t care about our fallen soldiers, but this shows how strong Biden is that he can express his grief for them publicly.

Three things wrong with that:

1. He wasn’t grieving. His head was down in befuddled consternation because he couldn’t answer Fox News reporter Peter Ducey’s questions about his botched Afghan pullout operation.

2. Trump had already issued a statement mourning those soldiers hours before the White House commented.

3. If Biden had followed Trump’s plan, those 13 troops and 90-plus Afghans likely wouldn’t have died. Indeed, under Trump, we lost only one soldier in Afghanistan in the previous 18 months. Under Biden, we’ve now lost 13 in one day. Even if he had been grieving in that photo, it doesn’t make someone a great President to show sorrow for the loss of soldiers who died needlessly because of his own bad decisions.


Pelosi wants more 2020 information from Trump, conservatives

By Mike Huckabee

Despite a report that the FBI has found no evidence of any planned insurrection among the protesters who invaded the Capitol on January 6th, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is determined to keep beating this dead horse until it’s hamburger. She’s now launched an outrageous demand for all documents and communications related to the 2020 election, over a 10-month period prior to January 20th, between the Trump White House and dozens of prominent conservatives, from Alex Jones to Trump campaign donors to social media influencers such as “Walk Away” founder Brandon Straka and even reporters.

Congressional Republicans are calling it “McCarthesque” (an insult to Sen. Joe McCarthy, who only dreamed of abusing power like Nancy Pelosi), “nuts,” and an attempt to spy on political opponents that’s worse than Watergate.

Incidentally, I notice my name isn’t on this list. I guess she knows that I have no secrets. Everything I’ve ever had to say about this incident I put right in this newsletter. If she wants to spy on my communications, I suggest she start reading it daily. She might actually find it educational.


Speaking of Accountability

By Mike Huckabee

A federal judge refused to dismiss a lawsuit by Baltimore business owners against the city for failing to stop rioters from burning and looting their businesses.

https://reason.com/volokh/2021/08/27/baltimore-might-be-liable-for-riot-damage-to-businesses/

The city argued that those weren’t rioters, they were just some criminals opportunistically taking advantage of the protests and unrest (or as I’d call that, “a distinction without a difference.”) Also that their hold-back strategy ultimately led to shorter and less violent unrest than in other cities.

But the judge decided that a reasonable juror might not see it that way, particularly since the mayor openly boasted that the city “gave those who wished to destroy space to do that.” So the lawsuit continues.

    Pelosi is PURE EVIL! She is even more dangerous than Biden! He's an empty suit being controlled by another evil, (I believe it to be Obama & China). She just hasn't been in the spotlight as much ...LATELY. I truly believe she is so power hungry, so obsessed with hating President Trump, she has no other purpose left! There is nothing left within her but HATRED. Disgusting woman. Totally and completely un-American.

    At this point I see a lot if collusion and misdirection. Favored tools of Marxists. Nancy used this time to try and pass her multi trillion wish list to complete the financial dedtruction.Her team has already bypassed the Constitution and followingbthe CCP blueprint They will continue as they only know how to follow Satan's orders.
    Also the Bay of Pigs was a fiasco. The details were " leaked" to Castro two weeks prior.
    I see now neither party has a finger on the pulse of the nation.

    I'm hoping and praying, Governor Mike, that the vote audits will reveal that Trump is actually the rightful president. I don't know how things can go after that, but I'm afraid that this country cannot survive a Biden presidency. My heart is broken and my soul aches for the needless deaths suffered in Afghanistan. This is not my America, the land of the brave and the free. I pray these young warriors didn't give their lives in vain, but will be remembered for all time as a testimony to the evil of governmental overreach and hubris.
    Blessings to you and yours!

    Ms. Pelosi must be one unhappy tortured soul if she still has a festered spot in her mind over Trump. She is going to give herself a stroke, especially at her age, by keeping that much hate and stress built up inside her. Maybe she needs to learn how to meditate so she could be more peaceful and less hate filled.

    Thanks to you, Mr. Panetta, for your honesty. It only goes to show that there are some liberals with a conscience and the ability to assess situations honestly. They just don’t come out often because of fear of reprisal. I continue to despair when I hear things coming out of the mouths of most liberals that showcase how hate for Trump has totally blocked their ability to learn, analyze, or show that they have even a modicum of conscience . We just don’t hear from the rest. It was probably wise for her career that Kamala tried to distance herself from this debacle. I cannot imagine her leading this country but I believe we are going to find out very shortly. The President’s capacity is diminishing by day.

    Nancy’s behavior only goes to show her panic to keep January 6 alive as that’s all they’ve got. What right does Congress have to all of those communications? I resent that my taxes are being used for this kind of investigation. Move along folks, there is nothing to see.

    Since the Democrats want to deal in the ABSURD the theory that someone a subversive intentionally did not call out support with the full knowledge that troops were need. Since there were bombs found the day before
