Ejecting Biden
If the Democrats want to keep the 2024 presidential election within reach, they have to move fast. The first step will be getting rid of Biden.

There is need to beat a dead horse regarding our humiliation in Afghanistan—the hasty retreat, the desperate refugees clinging to the last planes out of Kabul, the billions of dollars of weapons that were left behind for no reason (other than to provide a new slush fund for D.C.’s military-industrial campaign contributors). Think of the $1 trillion borrowed and spent and the trillions that will be owed in interest for a war that took 20 years to lose (and the one-third of your work-life the government confiscates, in taxes, to obtain those trillions). Consider the tens of thousands of Americans killed and maimed after it was already clear that both Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda had decamped from Afghanistan and that there was no reason for us to be there.
As a rule, the press pins failures of this magnitude either on a Republican president, during Republican administrations, or on faceless, nameless low-level bureaucrats, during Democratic administrations.
But this week, we’re seeing something very strange: The leftist media is blaming Joe Biden for the Afghan calamity. That’s actually what CNN’s homepage was calling it, as of Tuesday afternoon (August 12)—”Biden’s Afghan Calamity.” Another headline reports that Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla.) is calling for the 25th Amendment to be invoked and for Biden to be removed from office. Another says “Biden owns the mess he created”; another, “Afghanistan’s collapse was not pre-ordained.” On MSNBC’s homepage, the top headline says “Biden’s hope for Afghanistan isn’t a strategy.”
