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) Eight months into the Biden Presidency and most people would agree he has already made a mess of everything:
- His withdrawal from Afghanistan was a debacle, resulting in unnecessary injuries and deaths to over two dozen US service people.
- His horrible withdrawal plan left thousands of Americans and green card holders behind at the mercy of the horrific Taliban killers.
- Inflation is at its highest level in over ten years and he has no plans to fix the problem of escalating prices and, in fact, his policies will make inflation even worse.
- He has created a humanitarian, covid, drug cartel, human trafficking, criminal gang, and juvenile abuse crisis at the southern border.
- He has emboldened our enemies, Russia, China, North Korea and Iran, while insulting and alienating our allies, England, France, South Korea, etc.
- He cannot carry on an adult conversation without getting confused and disoriented, just one symptom of his cognitive decline.
- He is not allowed to talk to the press unless the time in front of journalists is short, structured and fake.
- The national debt continues to go higher and higher while current problems facing the country are no closer to being resolved than they were eight months ago.
Seriously? Does she actually believe this idiocy or does she think we are too dumb to realize how bad Biden is? Biden’s accomplishment from over 40 years in Washington is minuscule. Robert Gates, Obama's Secretary of Defense, once said that Biden "has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades." Obama once said: "Don't underestimate Joe's ability to f... things up."
And it looks like both Gates and Obama were right. France is ticked off at us, one of our strongest allies. Many members of Britain's political class correctly think that Biden has no ability to reason or lead. China is making threatening moves against Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Japan.
Seriously? Inflation is growing worse everyday. The Federal government’s spending is out of control. Biden left hundreds, if not thousands ,of people behind in Afghanistan, at the mercy of the cut throat Taliban. In the process of doing so, he turned the Taliban into one of the best equipped armies in the world, courtesy of the American taxpayer.
Maybe, just maybe, Pelosi, the third in leadership ranking of the country, is also in the same type of cognitive decline that Biden is experiencing. Here’s one description of Pelosi, "Pelosi looks and sounds like she’s had a severe stroke. Her words are slurred, her face looks drawn, and she’s making some of the strangest hand movements ever…even by her standards.”
Again, do American opticians actually believe the dumb stuf they say or do they think we are dumb enough to believe the tripe they peddle? In any case, the leadership of this country is in dire straits.
2) Far too many times we have discussed the fiasco that the “defund the police” movement turned out to be. By stripping away police resources across the country in mostly liberal/Democrat run cities, the crime rate and criminal violence has skyrocketed. Murder rates are up, felony crimes are up, people are being killed because of the whole defund movement, while politicians have used taxpayer money to pay for personal armed guards for themselves while exposing their constituents to violent increases in crime.
Washington DC is no exception to the this failed and fatal experiment in defunding the police:
- Washington DC has traditionally had some of the most stringent gun control laws in the country.
- It has also been one of the most violent cities in the country over the years despite the city’s strict gun control laws.
- In 2019, the city ranked 13th nationally when it came to the homicide rate per 100,000 residents.
- Their homicide rate did not get any help when the city joined the defund the police movement.
- As a result, a recent local newscast from Fox 5 found that city residents are more than ever trying to acquire gun permits to protect themselves and their families against the upsurge in criminal violence in the city, an upsurge that raised the city homicide rate 12% in the past year.
- John Ayala, a certified firearms instructor and the owner of Archangel Security and Training in DC has found that: "A lot of women … especially African American women coming to us, asking us to train them. And this is because there’s been a lot of women getting shot in D.C. We just had one yesterday down Congress. So because of that, the women feel that they have to protect themselves."
- The numbers verify his experience since the number of people applying for gun permits in the city is up about 150% over the same time last year.
We have always claimed that a very, very basic function of any government entity is to protect the lives and property of the people they serve. No matter how well they execute other government services, they are a failure if they cannot protect the lives and property of their citizens.
3) AMTRAK has been a disaster from a profitability perspective for decades. Why anyone thought that the Washington political class and the bureaucrats it oversees could actually run an efficient and profitable railroad system is beyond me. Washington cannot run anything efficiently and effectively so no surprise that AMTRAK has been a financial disaster for taxpayers since the beginning.
But it has also been fatal for any number of its customers over the years:
- An AMTRAK train going from Seattle to California was once stuck for days in Oregon after it reportedly hit a tree.
- Only a Federal government run railroad could break down because it somehow hit a tree.
- An AMTRAK train once crashed into a freight train in South Carolina that resulted in two AMTRAK riders being killed and at least 70 other riders being injured.
- In December, 2017, an AMTRAK train derailed in Washington state, smashing through an overpass onto Interstate 5, killing three people and injuring dozens.
- In early 2018, an AMTRAK train carrying Republican members of Congress to a retreat in West Virginia hit a garbage truck in Virginia, killing one of the three occupants in the vehicle.
- An AMTRAK train recently derailed in Montana, leaving several train cars off the track and on their sides.
- Unfortunately, three riders died in the accident.
- Fifty riders were injured.
That will do it for today: AMTRAK continues to kill, maim, and waste money, defunding the police movement fails in yet another city, and Pelosi goes stupid yet again.
