Top Generals Accuse Biden of Lying About Afghanistan Pullout in Sworn Testimony

Assessment: General Milley was speaking alongside the secretary of defense and the top U.S. commander in the region at the start of two days of intense questioning about the tumultuous withdrawal. The question is who will be punished for the catastrophic blunder in Afghanistan?

The testimony was extraordinary because a serving commander has rarely contradicted anything his commander in chief has said.

“As for a person who stirs up division, after warning him once and then twice, have nothing more to do with him.” Titus 3:10 ESV

General McKenzie also recommended to Donald Trump that a force of 4,500 troops stay in Afghanistan.

Politico:

In answering questions from Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) about his advice, McKenzie said he would not share his “personal recommendation” to the president.

But he went on to say that his “personal view,” which he said shaped his recommendations, was that withdrawing those forces “would lead inevitably to the collapse of the Afghan military forces and, eventually, the Afghan government.”

McKenzie also acknowledged that he talked to Biden directly about the recommendation by Gen. Scott Miller, the commander of U.S. Forces Afghanistan until July, that the military leave a few thousand troops on the ground, which Miller detailed in closed testimony last week.

General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was asked if he agreed with the assessment that 2,500 troops should remain in Afghanistan. Milley said yes. Later, Senator Tom Cotton asked the general if he should have resigned when Biden failed to follow his recommendation. Read More @PJ Media HERE

The Energy Crisis Is Sending Oil, Gas, And Coal Prices Soaring

Assessment: The US cut supply while global demand skyrockets.

  • The European energy crisis is going global as the lack of natural gas supply begins to influence oil and coal markets
  • Oil prices are set to break the $80 market as gas-to-oil switching increases oil demand amid continued supply outages
  • Coal prices have hit a 13-year high in Europe and record levels in Asia as more coal is called upon

“And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand” Rev. 6:5

Just ahead of the winter season, Europe’s natural gas crunch created a snowball effect in global energy markets. What started as very low gas inventories in Europe during the summer is now spilling over into oil, natural gas, and coal prices all over the world, with no quick fix or signs of a major short-term correction in sight.

Brent Crude Prices Near $80

Brent Crude prices topped $79 per barrel early on Monday – the highest level in three years. Prices are now headed for $80 – a level which some analysts had forecast in the summer, but which not many market participants believed would happen because of the Delta variant depressing prices and demand in some parts of the world in July and August.

However, as the winter heating season in the northern hemisphere approaches, gas and power prices in Europe are surging Read More @ Oil Price Here

Biden Administration Blocks Rescue of Persecuted Christians from Afghanistan

Assessment: Just as the Obama administration did to the Christians of Syria – Out of sight, out of mind.

The Biden administration is preventing the rescue of persecuted Christian minorities from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, where they face certain and likely gruesome death.

This information surfaced on August 26, 2021, during an interview between Glenn Beck and Tucker Carlson on Fox News.

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. 2 Tim. 3:11-12

Through his charity, the Nazarene Fund, Beck had managed to charter planes to airlift 5,100 Christians out of Afghanistan and into neighboring nations.  Before long, however, U.S. officials intervened and prevented the escape of a batch of 500 Christians, mostly women and children, who were ordered outside of the airport’s protection zone:  “I have pictures of them pleading to get back through the gate,” Beck continued:

And then I have pictures of blood and body parts and nothing but death in that same area [where they were confined].  We believe that our State Department is directly responsible…  I don’t know how many [of these 500 Christians] survived.  The State Department has blocked us every step of the way.  The State Department and the White House have been the biggest problem.  Everyone else, everyone else, has been working together, putting aside differences and trying to get these people to safety.  The State Department and the White House have blocked us every single step of the way.  In fact, an ambassador was called in Macedonia last night and told not to accept any of these people, as we were trying to get them off of the tarmac here, to keep the airport flowing, and getting these Christians out. We haven’t really been able to move anybody for about 12 hours.  Our mission is now changing greatly.  We have to send people into even greater danger to try to smuggle these Christians out, who are marked not just for death, but to be set on fire alive because they’re converted Christians.

Gov. Newsom signs laws allowing minors to hide abortions, transgender treatments from parents

Assessment: 60% of California voters defeated the September 14 recall of Governor Newsome who referred to the passage of the Texas heartbeat law ‘dark days’.

California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed two radical new pro-abortion bills Wednesday, dramatically extending abortion safeguards in California in direct response to Texas’ recent sweeping ban on nearly all abortions.

“Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.” Exodus 23:7 KJV

“California has been a leader in protecting access to sexual and reproductive rights, but as we’ve seen recently with unprecedented attacks on these rights, we can and must do more,” Newsom said in a statement.

One of the bills will make it easier for minors in California to hide abortions and transgender treatments from their parents.

The second bill will slap new restrictions and penalties on pro-life activists in the Golden State who engage in protests outside abortion clinics.

Newsom signed the bills, Assembly Bill 1184 and Assembly Bill 1356, during a virtual press conference September 22.

Making oblique reference to Texas’ life-saving Heartbeat Act which bans most abortions in the Lone Star State, Newsom said “these are dark days,” and promised to make sure California is a “reproductive freedom state.”

US to Iran: Allow UN Inspectors Access …

Assessment: US calls on Iran to stop denying UN nuclear watchdog access to a workshop making centrifuge parts or face diplomatic retaliation. Iran is probably not shaking.

The United States on Monday called on Iran to stop denying UN nuclear watchdog access to a workshop making centrifuge parts or face diplomatic retaliation at the agency’s Board of Governors within days, Reuters reported.

“You will say, ‘I will go up against a land of unwalled villages; I will go to a peaceful people, who dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates” Ezekiel 38:11 

On Sunday, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) announced that Iranian officials barred IAEA inspectors from replacing the memory cards of equipment used to monitor operations at an Iranian centrifuge facility.

According to the IAEA report Sunday, while inspectors from the UN-affiliated agency were able to change the memory cards at most of the locations being monitored, Iranian officials prevented them from doing so at the TESA Karaj complex, where centrifuges – used to enrich uranium for Iran’s nuclear program – are assembled.

Biden Must Create New Taxes, Eliminate Natural Gas to Meet Climate Pledge, Analysts Say

Assessment: The often asked question, where is America in prophecy become clearer each day. 

President Joe Biden would need to implement a massive tax on emissions and conduct a near elimination of natural gas to meet his climate goals, according to left-leaning environmental experts.

Therefore, because you tread down the poor And take grain taxes from him,
Though you have built houses of hewn stone, Yet you shall not dwell in them;
You have planted pleasant vineyards, But you shall not drink wine from them.” Amos 5:11

Biden will join world leaders at the United Nations’ climate change conference in November to discuss his administration’s pledge to reduce U.S. carbon emissions by 50 to 52 percent by 2030. While a White House fact sheet claims the goal will “cut … energy costs for families,” environmental experts contend Biden must enact policies that would raise taxes on everyday Americans to reach his emissions milestone.

According to Resources for the Future fellow Marc Hafstead, for example, Biden will fall short of his climate objective if he does not implement a tax hike on carbon emissions. The left-leaning World Resources Institute agrees—mitigation efforts without an emissions tax “carry significant uncertainties and fall short” of Biden’s goal, its top experts wrote in September. The University of Maryland’s Leon Clarke argues Biden would need a “near-complete phase-out” of natural gas-fired utilities and appliances.

The radical steps necessary to achieve his emissions goals—nearly half of U.S. homes use natural gas for heating—reflect the daunting political road ahead for Biden.

Biden’s Math for Dummies: Five Trillion Dollars Equals Zero Dollars

Assessment: Would you buy a used car from this man?

“Zero dollars” is how much Presidentish Joe Biden’s Build Back Better “human infrastructure” bill would really cost, even though his spending-and-regulation orgy is officially estimated to cost upwards of Three-Point-Five-Trillion-With-a-T dollars.

Notice I wrote “officially.” We’ll circle back to that in a moment.

You know, when I saw deranged Congresscritter Pramila Jayapal (D-Drug Induced State) make this claim over the weekend, I figured it was just a member of America’s second-least intelligent class (just ahead of journalists) spouting off nonsense that just happened to be more nonsensical than usual.

Like that time AOC wore a “Tax the Rich” gown to one of America’s most blatant tax write-off events.

But no.

It’s more like When a Stranger Calls: The “zero dollars” meme is coming from inside the White House.

FBI Narrative About the Jan. 6th Capitol ‘Insurrection’ Is IMPLODING

Assessment: Though several Proud Boys are charged with a conspiracy, this latest informant maintains that there was never any plan by the group to violently storm the Capitol and, indeed, there’s evidence to back that claim.

An explosive report over the weekend claims to show that two alleged Capitol riot participants were actually government informants. The New York Times reported Saturday that “records, and information from two people familiar with the matter, suggest that federal law enforcement had a far greater visibility into the assault on the Capitol, even as it was taking place, than was previously known.”

“Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction” 2 Thess. 2-3

The revelations in the Times reveal that there was no conspiracy on the part of the Proud Boys to storm the U.S. Capitol Building on January 6, 2021, as alleged by the Department of Justice.

It’s already known that the Proud Boys leader, Enrique Tarrio, had been an FBI informant. The Times report concentrates on yet another FBI informant in the right-leaning group who reportedly warned his handler in real-time that some bad stuff was going on at the Capitol.

Indeed, the paper concludes the obvious: that “the new information is likely to complicate the government’s efforts to prove the high-profile conspiracy charges it has brought against several members of the Proud Boys.”

Huh. You don’t say? Read More @ PJ Media HERE

Bennett at the UN: Hating Israel doesn’t make you ‘woke’

Assessment: Israel, Bennett said repeatedly, is a “lighthouse in a stormy sea.” It is a diverse democracy that contributes to the world with its innovations.

Israel is a beacon of light and freedom, and supporting it is a moral choice, Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said at his first-ever speech to the United Nations General Assembly on Monday.

“So I prophesied as He commanded me, and breath came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, an exceedingly great army. Ezekiel 37:10

Speaking in front of the iconic green marble wall, just over 100 days after he became prime minister, Bennett said: “Attacking Israel doesn’t make you morally superior. Fighting the only democracy in the Middle East doesn’t make you ‘woke.’ Adopting clichés about Israel without bothering to learn the basic facts, well, that’s just plain lazy. Every member state in this building has a choice. It’s not a political choice, but a moral one. It’s a choice between darkness and light.”
Pointing to the 38 countries that opted out of last week’s Durban IV Conference, marking 20 years since the World Conference of Racism, which devolved into antisemitism and anti-Israel bias, Bennett said: “This conference was originally meant to be against racism, but over the years turned into a conference of racism, against Israel and the Jewish people. And the world has had enough of this. I thank the 38 countries who chose truth over lies and skipped the conference.”
The prime minister specifically thanked the US for being a “longtime, trusted friend Read More @ JPost HERE
