Taliban fighters take control of the Afghan presidential palace in Kabul after President Ashraf Ghani fled the country on Aug. 15.

BBC News - Trump joins chorus of criticism against Biden

breaking

President Joe Biden’s predecessor Donald Trump has issued a new call for the US president to "resign in disgrace for what he has allowed to happen to Afghanistan”.

He has also claimed that the US’ withdrawal would be “much different and much more successful” were he still president.

The Biden team has hit back saying that the US-Taliban exit deal was negotiated under Trump’s presidency. ...

EDIT: Trump: “What Joe Biden has done with Afghanistan is legendary - It will go down as one of the greatest defeats in American history!”

You mean the withdrawal that Trump set up in February 2020? Trump would have had them out by 1 May, it was Biden that delayed it to 31 August.

I agree that Biden, or at least the military under his command, handled it appallingly, in the sense that it was a foregone conclusion as to what was going to happen so they could have withdrawn based on that rather than the fantasy that the country would hold together, but it was Trump that ordered the withdrawal. I wonder whether the people claiming Kabul could "fall in as little as 90 days" and similar actually believed what they were saying? We'll probably have to wait till one or more of the generals involved retired before we get the real story.

The main problem was the US' still-untreated trauma over this:

so the goal was to avoid that, or at least the appearance of that, at any cost rather than to conduct a practical withdrawal.

Vanity Fair: The chances Trump’s Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg will flip on Trump have gone way, way up

The criminally indicted CFO has one very big reason to cooperate against the ex-president.

Since the Trump Organization and its longtime CFO, Allen Weisselberg, were charged with numerous crimes last month—including conspiracy, grand larceny, and multiple counts of tax fraud and falsifying business records—it’s been suggested that Weisselberg has remained loyal to Donald Trump and has continued to refuse to flip and cooperate against him. That’s obviously the kind of news that Trump likes to hear, given that Weisselberg, who has worked for the company for decades, presumably knows where all the bodies are buried and could play a crucial part in helping send the ex-president to prison. Less-than-great news, from the perspective of a guy hoping to avoid spending his twilight years behind bars? The fact that, according to a new report, prosecutors have evidence that Weisselberg’s son also dodged taxes with the help of the Trump Organization, raising the prospect that the elder Weisselberg will feel compelled to cooperate against Trump to save his kid.

The Daily Beast reports that while the indictment against the Trump Organization and its CFO only mentioned that a “family member” of Weisselberg received a free corporate apartment which the company “intentionally failed” to pay the associated taxes on, and that the lodging “constituted income to that family member,” it’s clear that the unnamed individual is Barry Weisselberg, Allen’s son who works for the company. (Both Allen Weisselberg and the Trump Organization have pleaded not guilty to all charges.) And while Barry described the setup as an innocent-sounding “corporate apartment that [he] was given temporarily” during an August 2018 divorce deposition, prosecutors view it in a much more negative light, describing it in the indictment against Barry’s dad as a “scheme to defraud.” And that‘s not the only dirt the Manhattan District Attorney’s office reportedly has on the younger Weisselberg.

Also from Vanity Fair ... Donald Trump, Remorseless A$$hole, Apparently Won’t Encourage People to Get Vaccinated Because It Would Be Doing Biden a “Favor”

13 Aug 2021

The Daily Beast reports that “despite pleas from multiple friends and advisers,” Trump has repeatedly rebuffed the idea of mounting “anything resembling a real effort to get his supporters vaccinated.” ...

All of these ideas have been shot down, in part because in Trump’s sick mind, more people getting vaccinated - and thus protected from from a highly contagious disease that has killed nearly 620,000 people in the U.S. to date - would be helping Joe Biden. ...

Another completely lucid, coherent, and logical theory by MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell.

My theory is it was an aggressive space alien, attempting a probe. ;)

ComicSands: MyPillow guy now says 'attack' against him was actually aggressive selfie seeker who poked him

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell has changed his story about being "attacked" at his failed Sioux Falls, South Dakota "Cyber Symposium," which he'd used to elevate the "Big Lie" that the 2020 election was stolen.

Lindell had previously claimed that he was assaulted by a member of "Antifa." He now says the culprit was an aggressive selfie seeker who poked him really hard.

..."I think it was set up. Like if I had either fought back, they would have said, 'Oh, look at what Mike Lindell does with pictures,' or if I had turned, there is something else he might have done."

"It was so bad. I can still feel it now. The police came and they, um, you know."

"And I was like, and then I'm thinking, and then, and then someone knocks on my window this morning as I'm leaving and it's a guy and I didn't feel good there."

"And he goes like this [motioning] and there's a badge and I'm going, 'No,' and he walks away. Now that's weird too."
...

Already mentioned in this thread:

The video says "Justice will be served", however defamation cases are notoriously hard to prove in the states.

However they could win their case, and lose everything they own by their defense lawyers bill.

Judge Rules Dominion Defamation Suit Will Proceed Against Giuliani, Powell and Lindell

Glenn Kirschner

A federal judge appointed by Donald Trump has denied a motion to dismiss a billion-dollar defamation suit against Rudy Giuliani, Sydney "The Kraken" Powell and Mike "The Pillow Guy" Lindell. In a scathing 44-page opinion, Judge Carl Nichols ruled that the defendants' motions to dismissed are "denied in full."'

Here is a review of some of the more interesting and colorful aspects of the laughable defense mounted by the three Trump loyalists.

I happened to watch this yesterday and it's quite amusing watching the My Pillow idiot get all hyped up over his, well, nothing - especially when he disparages the fact-checkers. People should just accept his bs at face value, man! The comments on this video are hilarious too.

Someone Trump pardoned repeats the crime afterwards, because it usually pays to have friends in high-places. I'd guess Biden not going to pardon him this time :)

CNBC: Trump's son-in-law is Jared Kushner. Kushner's friend pardoned by Trump. Re-charged by Manhattan district attorney

The Manhattan district attorney charged Ken Kurson with crimes related to cyberstalking.
Kurson is a former newspaper editor and associate of Jared Kushner. He was pardoned by then-President Donald Trump in January.
Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance Jr. is also currently prosecuting the Trump Organization and its chief financial officer Allen Weisselberg.
