- The culminating event of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in August of 2021 was the horrific attack on Kabul Airport’s Abbey Gate.
- The explosion killed 13 U.S. service members and at least 170 Afghans. It also maimed countless more, including 45 service members like Tyler Vargas-Andrews.
- "...“Countless Afghans were murdered by the Taliban 155 yards in front of our position…We communicated the atrocities to our chain of command and intel assets but nothing came of it,”...
- On August 22, the sergeant and his fellow service members reported to the chain of command that the enemy performed an IED test run...
- “The response: ‘Leadership did not have the engagement authority for us. Do not engage,'” he explained, adding that they waited and waited for a response that never came.
- “Eventually the individual disappeared. To this day, we believe he was the suicide bomber,” he said.
- “Plain and simple, we were ignored,” explained Vargas-Andrews. “Our expertise was disregarded. No one was held accountable for our safety.”

What We Weren't Shown About Jan. 6
What We Weren't Shown About Jan. 6 - BY BEN SHAPIRO
- Jan. 6 was, according to White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”
- Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer explained that the riot of Jan. 6 was a “violent insurrection.”
- And in order to preserve democracy, Schumer stated, Fox News should take Tucker Carlson off the air.
"...But it is clear that Jan. 6, as ugly as it was, was a riot and not a “danger to our democracy”; that many of those in the Capitol were in fact gawking rather than rioting; and that the Jan. 6 committee went out of its way to present certain footage but avoid other footage.
...We couldn’t be given the footage, according to our media and political elites, lest we draw the wrong conclusions.
- Herein lies the problem: the best way to avoid the American people drawing the wrong conclusions is to present them with the full evidence, and then let them draw their own conclusions.
- And that’s precisely what the elites in our media and the Democratic Party won’t allow.

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: The Price Of Eliminating Consequences | The Daily Caller"Recently there were some remarkable online videos of a Portland, Oregon good Samaritan confronting shoplifters and forcing them to dump loads of their pilfered goods.
- More stunning, however, was the sheer outrage — of the thieves!
- The criminals entertained no fear of any consequences for walking out with bags of things that were not theirs.
- They had no care that mainstreaming their habits would undermine the entire fabric of society.
What is common to the pandemic of smash-and-grab, carjacking, fighting on airliners while in flight, and deadly Saturday night shoot-outs is this same apparent assurance there will be no consequences.

"...Naturally, the regime needs a distraction...

Whereas, in late 2019, COVID–19 emerged and began to spread throughout the world, creating a pandemic that has had a catastrophic impact on human life, communities, and the economy of the United States...

Tucker Carlson releases exclusive Jan. 6 footage, says politicians, media lied about Sicknick, 'QAnon Shaman' | Fox News:
Tucker Carlson released never-before-seen footage from the Jan. 6, 2021 riots at Capitol Hill that appear to dispel several narratives pushed by the Democrat-controlled House Select Committee and the legacy media.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy granted "Tucker Carlson Tonight" an exclusive first look to over 40,000 hours of security camera footage from the Capitol Building that were hidden from the public for over two years. On Monday, Carlson offered the first glimpses of footage involving key figures from that day. Carlson concluded the footage proves that lawmakers and the media were "lying" about the events that took place on Jan. 6.

- That is completely untrue. No officers died that day, not one was killed. But what’s shameful is that even now, more than two years later, they’re still lying. And it’s not just Merrick Garland. The White House proved it was a “talking point” by repeating it themselves.

Hmmm, not what the media told us!-----Jan. 6 footage shows cops bringing QAnon Shaman to Senate floor
"Newly revealed surveillance footage from Jan. 6, 2021, shows two Capitol Police officers escorting Jacob Chansley, the behorned so-called “QAnon Shaman” who has come to symbolize the riot, through the halls of the Capitol and to the very door of the US Senate.
The footage aired on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Monday night shows the officers closely following Chansley as he wanders the corridors of the Capitol, bare-chested and wearing face paint and a luxuriant fur hat with Viking horns.
“Virtually every moment of his time inside the Capitol was caught on tape,” says Carlson, who was granted exclusive access by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to 40,000 hours of surveillance footage from that day inside and around the Capitol, which has never been seen before by the public.
“The tapes show the Capitol Police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides.”...
