Former FBI Assistant Director of Intelligence Kevin Brock is sounding the alarm about Joe Biden becoming a national security threat to the nation. (Article by Martin Walsh republished from ConservativeBrief.com) In an op-ed for The Hill, Brock argued that Biden's "weak leadership" is now the greatest threat to national security. "The Biden administration has exposed itself as incapable of making basic prudential decisions, and then compounding it with outrageous statements by the president, Pentagon brass, and the State Department that have many Americans asking, 'What were you thinking?' What were you thinking when you decided to extract military personnel from Afghanistan without moving American civilians and Afghan employees out of harm's way first?'" Brock asked. "There is chaos — it is among America's weak political and military leaders. We've been subjected daily to conflicting messages between the president and the Pentagon about the safety of 15,000 Americans who remain in grave danger behind enemy lines," he said. "Just yesterday, Biden's press secretary claimed that it is 'irresponsible' to refer to Americans in Afghanistan as "stranded" since the U.S. is committed to evacuating anyone who wants to leave. All they have to do is make it through Taliban checkpoints and get to the Kabul airport," Brock added. "This is the type of logic you get from 'leaders' who are in over their heads," he continued. "Can the State Department seem any more out of touch with reality? State is letting us know, much to our dismay, that after 20 years in Afghanistan they apparently remain clueless about whom they are dealing with. The Taliban are uncivilized, violent, religious fanatics who brutalize women," he said. "Start from that reality. Woke won't work." "The Biden administration is being pilloried, even by some traditional allies, for its breathtaking miscalculations — and deservedly so. Biden has avoidably placed thousands of American lives in immediate danger, emboldened evil oppressors, and likely returned Afghanistan to the terror safe haven we set out to eliminate twenty years ago. Weakness always results in less security," Brock concluded. As Afghanistan has collapsed and been taken over by the Taliban, Biden has faced extreme blowback. Texas Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw issued a blistering response to the Taliban and their threat of a "red line." After the Taliban threatened Biden to pull out all U.S. troops by August 31, Crenshaw took to Twitter and wrote: "Go f*** yourself." https://twitter.com/DanCrenshawTX/status/1429888676390113288?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1429888676390113288%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativebrief.com%2Fweak-leadership-49268%2F The United Kingdom's Houses of Parliament officially voted to hold Joe Biden in contempt over his disastrous handling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. Senate Democrats are planning to investigate the Biden administration's "flawed" American withdrawal from Afghanistan. The Senate Intelligence and Foreign Relations Committees — both chaired by Democrats — are planning to investigate the catastrophic withdrawal. Florida Republican Sen. Rick Scott suggested using the 25th Amendment to remove Biden from the presidency. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has slammed Biden for his handling of the withdrawal of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, which have descended into chaos over the weekend as Taliban forces seized much of the country. McCarthy is now calling for investigations into Biden's handling of the crisis. Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said she is drafting Articles of Impeachment against Biden as the debacle on his Afghanistan withdrawal of troops continues. Kamala Harris is also reportedly refusing to accept any responsibility. A source reportedly said that Harris refused to be part of addressing the American people after the terrorist group took over Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan. A source said Harris screamed: "They will not pin this sh*t on me!" Read more at: ConservativeBrief.com and NationalSecurity.news.
