The Biden White House is on lockdown after this blindsiding betrayal
Biden’s friends are dropping like flies. He’ll be completely alone before he knows it.
And the Biden White House is on lockdown after this blindsiding betrayal.
The American people have learned over the past year that every institution is in the back pocket of the Democrat Party.
The FBI and DOJ worked hand over fist to raid Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate and investigate supposed crimes that Biden had committed ten times over.
Pro-Life activists had their homes raided as well for the crime of praying outside abortion clinics, while churches and pro-life organizations are routinely threatened and attacked.
But the biggest ally of the Democrats has been one of their oldest too: the media.
Media outlets like CBS, CNN, MSNBC, and many more have played cover for liberal politicians for years.
When they aren’t throwing up a smoke screen for Democrats, they’re fabricating hit pieces against conservatives.
But one major network just flipped the script on the Biden administration.
During a briefing on Thursday, CBS White House correspondent Ed O’Keefe pressed retired Admiral John Kirby on why the government chose to release a long-awaited report on the chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal right before a holiday weekend.
Kirby, who is the strategic communications coordinator for the National Security Council, said that the timing of the report was just a coincidence and that the different agencies that worked on it just happened to finish it at this time.
O’Keefe pointed out that the information had been asked for months ago, but reporters didn’t get it until 10 minutes before the briefing before the Easter holiday.
“Why today? Is this all we get? Is this a response to the studies that were done by the agencies or is this considered a summary?” he asked, calling the move “the very definition of a modern major holiday news dump.”
“This is the result of months and months of work by individual agencies,” Kirby objected, explaining that the full reports from those agencies were classified and that the Biden administration had put together the assessment that was sent out to reporters and leaders on Capitol Hill.

O’Keefe kept pushing, saying that the administration’s assessment was that President Biden had “received and accepted the unanimous advice of his top national security officials to end the evacuation on August 31.”
“What is the definition of a top national security official, because we know for example General McKenzie, who was then head of CentCom, said he objected to aspects of this,” O’Keefe asked.
Kirby said that he didn’t want to talk about specific pieces of advice that Biden may or may not have gotten from different advisors.

O’Keefe ended by saying that the Biden administration’s report put the blame on the previous administration for four pages, but the Biden White House didn’t really say they were actually to blame.
“Nowhere in here does there appear to be any expression of accountability or mistake by either the president himself or others. Is there any for what happened?” He wanted to know.
Kirby avoided the direct question of whether or not Biden would hold himself accountable by saying that the fact that agencies were doing after-action reviews on their own, instead of waiting until Congress told them to, was proof that they were holding themselves accountable.
