Afghanistan has been a collective failure of multiple Presidential administrations and multiple sessions of Congress. Thus, please consider signing the petition below that calls for the immediate resignation of every member of Congress that has at least twenty years of service and the resignation of President Biden, Vice President Harris, and critical, and failed, members of the Biden Administration. They do not deserve to serve any longer given their miserable twenty year track record of death, destruction and waste in Afghanistan.
Also, if you are passionate about this topic and effort, feel free to pass the link along to others who might also feel the same way, i.e. incompetence should not be rewarded:
Biden and others need to resign for dereliction of duty, incompetence and total lack of empathy. Nothing short of resignation is acceptable. Thank you.

It is the beginning of another month which means it is time again to review the latest political class insanity from the American political class. Each month it takes us multiple posts to cover the wasteful spending, incompetent government organizations and employees, government programs that usually make a problem worse than resolving it, inane and idiotic politician comments, etc.
To review past posts on this insanity and idiocy, just click on the first few posts in each month listed to the right of this page. After reviewing just a handful of these insanity posts we think you will agree that we are currently being served by the worst set of American politicians ever to hold office in our entire history
1) In the wake of the George Floyd murder last year, there were riots and protests across the country and many politicians jumped on the inane bandwagon to “defund the police.” Many city politicians actually went through with this stupidity and slashed local police budgets and staffing.
At the time we compared their actions to someone trying to design and test a new parachute AFTER they had jumped out of an airplane, before they had done any testing to see if their new parachute concept would work. Same thing here, they defunded the police with no clue what would happen, kind of like every other decision American politicians make.
Well, a good amount of time has passed since the defund the police hysteria started and guess what:
- Crime and violence has skyrocketed across the country with the worst increases apparently happening in cities that actually defunded their police resources.
- Portland, Oregon, the leader in defund the police movement, has actually had a change of heart and its inept mayor, Ted Wheeler, is now saying he will take action to put more funds back into the city’s police department.
- And if Portland and its mayor is backing off the defund the police idiocy, then reality is finally hitting these politicians in the face on how stuoid this concept was from the start.
2) Oregon politicians have had a rough time lately when it comes to getting anything right. We just talked about the insanity in Portland and its joke of a mayor, Ted Wheeler. The governor of the state has been one of the strictest when it came to locking down the state from a covid perspective even though Oregon has recently seen a sharp increase in covid cases despite the governor's orders.
As a result of these two pieces of insanity and other reasons, there is a significant movement across Oregon to secede from the state and become part of Idaho. Seems a lot of the non-coastal areas in Oregon are pretty conservative in their views and quite opposed to the views and actions of those politicians that are mostly based closer to the west coast:
- On May 18th, voters in five Oregon counties voted to leave Oregon and become part of Idaho.
- According to reporting by the Epoch Times: “Voters in Malheur, Sherman, Grant, Baker, and Lake counties approved various measures that require county officials to take steps to look into moving the Idaho border west to incorporate the counties.”
- These eastern, more rural counties believe life would be better off for them if they were aligned with the more conservative politics of Idaho.
- The leader of the secession movement is Mike McCarter: “This election proves that rural Oregon wants out of Oregon. Oregon really believes in liberal values such as self-determination, the Legislature won’t hold our counties captive against our will. If we’re allowed to vote for which government officials we want, we should be allowed to vote for which government we want as well.”
- This brings to seven counties whose voters want to leave the state of Oregon with two other counties scheduling similar votes in the near future.
- This would leave Oregon as a much smaller state mostly liberal voters focused around the bigger state cities.
- The seven counties still face some heavy duty obstacles.
- The secession would have to be approved by the liberal controlled Oregon state legislature which is not likely.
- If it gets past the legislature, then Oregon and Idaho would have to negotiate an interstate transfer arrangement and then the U.S. Congress would have to approve the changes.
In the coming months two more Oregon counties: Harney and Douglas will conduct votes on similar measures. Greater Idaho’s McCarter told The Epoch Times that Idaho state Representatives Republicans Barbara Ehardt and Judy Boyle are set to introduce a bill about relocation of the Idaho-Oregon state line in January of next year.
3) Nancy Pelosi is from California. California is a state in a state of serious decline:
- It is home to the largest homeless population in the country.
- It has some of the highest tax burdens in the country.
- It has some of the highest utility and gas prices in the country.
- It has some of the highest crime cities in the country.
- It has one of the highest poverty rates in the country.
- It has some of the worst public education results in the country.
- Pelosi has diverted a whopping $200 million to her own Congressional district within the ridiculous, inflation causing $3.5 TRILLION infrastructure program.
- But the $200 million is not to feed or shelter the homeless, it is not to fix the state’s failing public schools, etc.
- It's to make $200 million worth of improvements to a park in San Francisco.
- The Presidio is an existing park so the $200 million is not even to build a new park, it is to fix an existing park.
- It is also the home of the San Francisco Golf Club, a golf club that is used by local millionaires and high ranking local Democratic politicians.
Consider some pretty disgusting numbers:
- There are about 160,000 homeless Americans living on the streets of California.
- Based on a national average of food banks, that $200 million could provide about 68 million meals to homeless Americans.
- This means that every homeless person in California could receive three meals a day for about 141 days, certainly a better use of money than fixing up a golf course.
If we assume every American,and thus, every Americans’ member of Congress is equal, then it would cost an outrageous $110 billion to give every Congressional district a $200 million park renovation.
Unbelievable chutzpah on her part and a tremendous and bad priority/waste of taxpayer wealth. Federal government tax money should never be spent on such local projects, that is for the city or state government to spend their own money for rich golfers.
4) One last piece of insanity for today. Vice President Kamala Harris was put in charge of the border crisis months and months ago. She has obviously been an abject failure in resolving the problem.The most recent example of her failure is the reality that thousands of illegal immigrants are daily coming across the border by the Texas town of Del Rio and they have set up an illegal encampment under a highway overpass as they wait and try to get into the country.
This encampment is obviously illegal but more importantly, it is going to be a breeding ground for covid, measles, and who knows what other kind of disease as there are no sanitation or other health facilities onsite. The Americans in Del Rio are obviously upset and concerned for their health, welfare, and their lives.
But like most American politicians, Kamala Harris could care less about their welfare and safety. While this border crisis has been growing out of control and more and more dangerous every day, Harris decided it was more important for her to go to a college football game and do the pregame coin toss, Americans in danger be damned.
The defund the police movement continues to implode, Oregon residents yearning for freedom and doing their best to get it, Pelosi continues to be a lowly, greedy, self-serving politician rather than a national leader, and for Kamala Harris, a photo op is more important than American lives.
