Biden fucking up already
- Thread starter Cuddles
- Start date
I guess that's one way to push out the progs. Wonder if they applied the same rules for public intoxication, DUIs, or cocaine use:?

White House staffers asked to resign or work remotely after revealing past marijuana use
In a statement to CNN, Psaki said: "While we will not get into individual cases, there were additional factors at play in many instances for the small number of individuals who were terminated."
Staffers needing a security clearance at the White House are required to fill out a detailed background check questionnaire, which includes questions about marijuana and other drugs. Applicants are asked to detail the type of drugs or controlled substances they have used and how frequent and recent the use has been.
Two sources said it was suggested to some during the presidential transition period that previous marijuana use might not disqualify individuals from serving in the White House. One source said the marijuana policy was not made clear to staffers before filling out their questionnaires.

So we're going to hold up withdrawal to observe some commemorative date and piss off the counter party/risk troops by going back on the agreed date? Do we want our guys attacked so we can stay put? Didn't we not already do this crap at great loss in WWI?

Biden will withdraw all U.S. forces from Afghanistan by Sept. 11, 2021
President Biden will withdraw all American troops from Afghanistan over the coming months, U.S. officials said, completing the military exit by the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks that drew the United States into its longest war.
.
The decision, which Biden is expected to announce Wednesday, will keep thousands of U.S. forces in the country beyond the May 1 exit deadline that the Trump administration negotiated last year with the Taliban, according to a senior administration official who briefed reporters Tuesday under rules of anonymity set by the White House.
While the Taliban has promised to renew attacks on U.S. and NATO personnel if foreign troops are not out by the deadline — and said in a statement it would not continue to participate in “any conference” about Afghanistan’s future until all “foreign forces” have departed — it is not clear whether the militants will follow through with the earlier threats given Biden’s plan for a phased withdrawal between now and September. The Taliban has conducted sputtering talks with the Afghan government, begun under the Trump deal, since last fall. It was also invited to
an additional high-level inter-Afghan discussion in Turkey later this month.
How 20 years of war have reshaped Afghanistan’s capital
Officially, there are 2,500 U.S. troops in Afghanistan, although the number fluctuates and is currently about 1,000 more than that. There are also up to an additional 7,000 foreign forces in the coalition there, the majority of them NATO troops.

To be honest, there is no way to pay for a large infrastructure bill. You can add more tolls to roads or rise gasoline taxes but you never really pay for even 1/3 of it.
They'll rid us of the filibuster just in time to lose the majority in Congress
