										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Not to say the State Department is full of incompetents, but there have been enough examples of people who&#8217;ve languished behind enemy for years while an over-paid bucket of unaccountable bureaucrats moved on to the next inconvenience.</p>
<p>So, it you were currently in hiding in Afghanistan, running low on money, food and knowing that at any time your door could be kicked in and you&#8217;d either be shot there or dragged in the street to be beheaded, would you have any optimism that the U.S. Department of State <em>(under Joe Biden)</em> would be soon coming to get you out?</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Blinken.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-17934 size-medium" title="Secretary of State Antony Blinken" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Blinken-150x91.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="91" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Blinken-150x91.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Blinken.jpg 700w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>On Monday Secretary of State Antony Blinken declared &#8216;a new diplomatic mission has begun&#8217; in Afghanistan to try and get those remaining Americans out. </span><span style="color: #808080;">He vowed to use diplomacy and leverage to bring out any Americans, allies, or Afghanis who assisted the US and want to leave, as critics pounded Biden for allowing the withdrawal before all Americans were out, comparing those who remained to hostages.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9944163/Veteran-GOP-Rep-says-Americans-left-Afghanistan-Taliban-hostages-ransomed.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daily Mail, 8/31/21</a></p>
<p>While the left and their media have been gaslighting the American people on a variety of issues for years, their latest is the whole Afghanistan debacle is the fault of Donald Trump and with regards to those left behind, oh well. Let&#8217;s move on to things more important, like January 6th.</p>
<p>One thing is for sure: Donald Trump would NEVER leave hang Americans out to dry behind enemy lines and wouldn&#8217;t leave it solely to the State Department to use &#8220;diplomacy&#8221; <em>(&#8220;strongly-worded&#8221; letters)</em> on tyrants.</p>
<p>He&#8217;d didn&#8217;t rely solely on the impersonal Department of State bureaucracy to deal with some of the United States&#8217; prominent adversaries <em>(North Korea, China, Iran, Yemen)</em> and his track record gave room for optimism.</p>
<p>For example&#8230;.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Otto-Warmbier.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-17932 size-medium" title="Otto Warmbier" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Otto-Warmbier-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Otto-Warmbier-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Otto-Warmbier.jpg 640w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a><strong>Otto Warmbier</strong><span style="color: #808080;">, an American sentenced to 15 years&#8217; hard labor by North Korea for alleged &#8220;anti-state acts,&#8221; has been released. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson announced Tuesday morning that Warmbier, 22, was on his way back to the U.S. to be reunited with his family.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Warmbier has apparently been in a coma since shortly after his trial, according to The Washington Post. He was sentenced in March 2016. A statement from his parents, Fred and Cindy Warmbier, dated June 13, stated: &#8220;Otto is on a medevac on his flight home. Sadly, he is in a coma and we have been told he has been in that condition since March 2016. We learned of this only one week ago. We want the world to know how we and our son have been brutalized and terrorized by the pariah regime in North Korea. We are so grateful he can finally be with people who love him.&#8221;</span><br />

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">I had a great conversation with President Xi,&#8221; Trump said aboard Air Force One on Tuesday. &#8220;He was terrific, and they&#8217;re working on it right now. And hopefully everything is going to work out.&#8221;</span><br />

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">“We’ve had 17 released, and we’re very proud of that record. Very proud. And we have others coming,” Trump said Saturday evening as he welcomed home </span><strong>Joshua Holt</strong><span style="color: #808080;">, an American citizen who had been detained in Venezuela for two years without trial. Unlike his predecessor, the president has managed to bring these prisoners home without freeing terrorists or paying millions of dollars in suspected ransom payments.</span><br />

<p>And that was as of 2018. Who knows how sooner these could have occurred had it not been for the partisan, and in some cases, manufactured scandals that took up valuable time and attention of the Trump Administration.</p>

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">&#8220;Today we are bringing home another American citizen, big thing, very big,&#8221; Trump said at the beginning of a coronavirus task force briefing. Trump also said that the US is working hard to secure the release American journalist </span><strong>Austin Tice</strong><span style="color: #808080;">, who disappeared in Syria in 2012. Separately, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that Iran has released American </span><strong>Mike White</strong><span style="color: #808080;"> on medical furlough.</span><br />

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Kash Patel, a deputy assistant to Trump who worked on the deal, told The Wall Street Journal that Loli had been held by the Houthis for about three years and Gidada was held captive for about a year.</span><br />

<p>One would think President Joe Biden would personally understand and appreciate the American tradition of not leaving anyone behind.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Erik Prince, the co-founder of defense contractor Blackwater, ​is responding after the White House took a shot at him for offering to fly people out of Afghanistan on charter flights for $6,500 a seat — recalling that Blackwater ​soldiers had to rescue </span><strong>Joe Biden</strong><span style="color: #808080;">, Secretary of State </span><strong>John Kerry</strong><span style="color: #808080;"> and Defense Secretary </span><strong>Chuck Hagel</strong><span style="color: #808080;"> when they got lost in a snowstorm in 2008.</span></p>

<span style="color: #808080;">“They were on a congressional visit to Afghanistan in the winter and their US Army helicopter got lost in a blinding snowstorm and set down in Taliban territory on the side of a mountain,” he told Tucker Carlson. “And the US military launched a ground convoy to get them and they got lost and the Blackwater guys launched and they did not get lost. And we recovered them. We rescued them from Taliban territory. That was the winter of ’08,” he said.</span><br />

<p>Meanwhile&#8230;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">An Afghan interpreter who helped rescue then Senator Joe Biden and two other senators in a valley in Afghanistan is stranded in the country under Taliban rule pleading to be rescued on Tuesday.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Kabul.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-17949 size-medium" title="Kabul airport" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Kabul-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Kabul-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Kabul-768x432.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/Kabul.jpg 800w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>“Hello Mr. President: Save me and my family. Don’t forget me here”</strong>, the Wall Street Journal quoted him as saying.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Mohammed&#8217;s <em>(who asked not to use his full name)</em> visa application became stuck after the defense contractor he worked for lost the records he needed for his application. The Afghan interpreter tried to join the thousands of people who swarmed Kabul airport in an effort to get on one of the evacuation flights out of the country, but he was “rebuffed by US forces.” He says he could get in but US forces would not allow him to take his wife and four children with him.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://english.alarabiya.net/News/world/2021/08/31/Afghan-interpreter-who-helped-rescue-Biden-in-2008-left-behind-in-Afghanistan-Report" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Al Arabiya English, 8/31/21</a></p>
<p>Obviously some people are more deserving and entitled to rescue than others and it must&#8217;ve been a relief to Joe Biden as it&#8217;s doubtful &#8220;strongly-worded&#8221; letters from the State Department would have been of any meaningful assistance when HE needed it.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One little problem when you ascribe to a fad; you might have to live by it.</p>
<p>Reality Winner is one of those malleable millennials who latched onto that social justice narrative and appears to have checked her white “privilege”…</p>
<p><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-terrorism-Tweet.png" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-116192" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-terrorism-Tweet-500x337.png" sizes="auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-terrorism-Tweet-500x337.png 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-terrorism-Tweet-150x101.png 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-terrorism-Tweet.png 720w" alt="" width="400" height="269" /></a><br />
… temporarily.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-116198" title="Reality Winner and her cat" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Reality-WInner-and-cat.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 795px) 100vw, 795px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Reality-WInner-and-cat.jpg 1000w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Reality-WInner-and-cat-150x81.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Reality-WInner-and-cat-768x415.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Reality-WInner-and-cat-500x271.jpg 500w" alt="" width="795" height="430" /></p>
<p>But now that Reality is in legal jeopardy for abusing her paid position and illegally distributed classified documents to the media and issued a threat to the White House, maybe being <strong>“pretty, white and cute”</strong> is something that could be exploited because she is just so much smarter than everyone else.</p>
<blockquote><p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BeGRJBgOoHw" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p></blockquote>
<p>All this “social justice” bullshit is a millennial fad that activists are using to arm clueless young white people with guilt along with that need to be included. Reality Winner absorbed the indoctrination, saw her nation as the problem and sought to do what she could to be a hero.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><a class="cb-lightbox fs-lightbox-element" title="Reality Winner mugshots" href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-mugshots.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-116200 size-medium" title="Reality Winner mugshots" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-mugshots-150x107.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-mugshots-150x107.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Winner-mugshots.jpg 480w" alt="" width="150" height="107" /></a><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>Prosecutors argued that the only thing Winner could do if she were released on bail is be recruited by the nation’s enemies.</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>Based on evidence seized from her home, federal prosecutors detailed Winner’s alleged plans to burn down the White House and travel to Afghanistan, pledging her allegiance to the Taliban.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">—</span> <a href="http://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/prosecutors-alleged-nsa-leaker-wanted-to-burn-the-white-house-down/531327849" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">WSBTV, 6/8/17</a></p>
<p>Winner got busted and now uses her previously-abhorred whiteness into a pity party she can possibly use to get out of trouble. Yeah, sure. She also appears to have that manipulation thing all thought out as she’s gotten her parents to lie for her, cry for her, be accessories, and has shown her for the narcissist she is.</p>
<p>And when it comes to the left, criminally resisting the Trump Administration is an action worthy of “love and support and kind messages” <em>(even if she has $30k in the bank)</em>.</p>
<p><a title="Reality Winner GoFundMe" href="https://www.gofundme.com/2d9rnm64" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-116210" title="Reality Winner GoFundMe" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/RealityWinner-GoFundMe.jpg" sizes="auto, (max-width: 795px) 100vw, 795px" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/RealityWinner-GoFundMe.jpg 966w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/RealityWinner-GoFundMe-150x111.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/RealityWinner-GoFundMe-768x568.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/RealityWinner-GoFundMe-500x370.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/RealityWinner-GoFundMe-80x60.jpg 80w" alt="" width="795" height="588" /></a><br />
As we said years ago, females <a href="https://youtu.be/srziIRBhHWQ" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">“crying” on the stand</a> should be considered illegal jury manipulation as it can be done on cue. Winner wants to play the “pretty, white and cute” card because being white is no longer “terrorism” to her. It’s now the difference between freedom or incarceration for a very long time.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The “smartest administration ever” with the newly-implemented “<a href="http://dailycaller.com/2014/06/01/white-house-aides-reveal-obama-doctrine-dont-do-stupid-shit/">Don’t Do Stupid Shit</a>” doctrine figured sending National Security Adviser Susan Rice on the Sunday morning talk shows to represent was a smart thing…?</p>
<blockquote><p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ceJutR3b1yA" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p></blockquote>
<p>And like her Benghazi-YouTube video debacle, what she said greatly differed from the reality relayed from those who were there.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Rice appeared on ABC’s This Week to defend Obama’s release of The Taliban Dream Team from Guantanamo Bay in exchange for Army Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, who had been a Taliban prisoner in Pakistan for five years. <strong>Other than setting the terrible precedent of negotiating with terrorists, the exchange has become controversial over claims that Bergdahl was a deserter who simply walked away from his post. Rice, however, said on ABC that Bergdahl had been “taken in battle.”</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Bergdahl had apparently become disillusion with the United States, the military, and the mission in Afghanistan. There are reports that just prior to disappearing, Bergdahl mailed a lot of his stuff home, including his computer. Then, a number of his platoon mates claim, he just walked away from his post.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">At first, the Army classified Bergdahl as DUSTWUN, or duty status: whereabouts unknown.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Susan-Rice.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-3122 size-medium" title="Susan Rice" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Susan-Rice-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Susan-Rice-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Susan-Rice-500x281.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Susan-Rice.jpg 700w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Despite all of this, <strong>Rice attempted to make the prisoner swap look like an administration triumph and obviously wanted to make it sound to George Stephanopoulos and to the American people as though Obama had just secured the release of an American hero.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2014/06/02/Another-Sunday-Show-Fib-From-Susan-Rice/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Breitbart, 6/2/14</a></p>
<p>Besides being one of the more arrogant people in the administration, who would they expect the American people to believe a word she says?</p>
