Fear makes people do irrational things. When people are scared, they do things that they never would have even dreamed of doing. Hence the fear-mongering amongst the COVID-19 pandemic. Australians killing dogs due to COVID-19 restrictions, requiring two-year olds to wear masks, doctors refusing to treat unvaccinated patients, taking children away from in-person learning; These examples all stem from a place of fear. Mike Slater shares his perspective on how fear makes people to irrational things and leads people to do the unthinkable, and how this all ties in to why we can’t trust our experts.
Don’t trust the experts! Mike Slater has multiple examples of experts lying to you whether it’s with COVID-19 or Afghanistan and he’s ready to share them with you. Mike also delivers a strong life lesson about morality. Plus, things have gotten so bad that even Adam Schiff admitted it. Mike has the details.
The Taliban may have gotten the biggest U.S. military jackpot in the history of the world, and now they are not only mocking President Biden by wearing OUR U.S. military gear, but the Taliban also mocked the iconic WWII photo of U.S. Marines raising the flag on Iwo Jima. There is no doubt that this is all Biden’s fault. It’s a full-on failure, and the Taliban are making a mockery out of us and our weak government. Mike Slater shares his thoughts on the absolute disgrace of an administration and its catastrophic attempt of a withdrawal in Afghanistan.
The U.S. government admits that they don’t have an accurate number as to how many Americans are stranded in Afghanistan. U.S. citizens are being told to evacuate to the nearest airport as soon as possible, yet the government cannot guarantee their safety. Now, those Americans are told to steer clear of the dangers in and around the airport. The crisis on the ground in Afghanistan and outside the Kabul airport is just getting worse, but are all the critics being too harsh on Joe Biden? John Hayward, Breitbart News National Security Deputy Editor, shares his take on that, and the scenes outside the Kabul airport in Afghanistan.
The Pfizer vaccine has received full FDA approval. What does that mean for future COVID-19 mandates? Mike Slater has the answer. Plus, President Biden’s approval rating is plummeting due to the crisis ongoing in Afghanistan. Mike is joined by Breitbart’s John Hayward and Major Glenn Ignazio to discuss the administration’s disastrous withdrawal.
Our leaders have failed us. Just how, after 20 years, did this all fall so easily, so quickly, in just three days? The lying and the manipulating; There is no end in sight. Slater shares how we were all lied to about Afghanistan, the ‘true story’ on the Afghanistan papers, and how this all ties it all in to the COVID pandemic.
Americans are at risk, stranded overseas, afraid to go to the airport, and our government is saying they do not have the capability to help them out. It’s a chaotic scene, and there are no clear answers. With Biden’s mix-messaging in blaming the military, blaming U.S. intelligence, blaming the Afghans, basically blaming everyone but HIMSELF. Kristina Wong, Breitbart News Pentagon Correspondent, is here to give us the latest news and updates on the Pentagon briefing, as well as the new reports on the Taliban takeover.
We are fighting a losing battle in Afghanistan and always have, says Mike Slater. Mike argues President Biden’s epic withdrawal failure is a fitting ending to a war with no mission. Mike also receives an update from Breitbart Pentagon correspondent Kristina Wong. Plus, Biden takes his eye off the ball on Afghanistan and held a COVID address blaming GOP governors. Florida’s conservative journalist Brendon Leslie is fired up about it.
Think about all those family members and Veterans, who are thankfully now at home, but who sacrificed so much, and this is what comes out of it? Our military accomplished the goal in Afghanistan, but our government accomplished nothing in the U.S. withdrawal. Betrayal. Total betrayal. Meaghan Mobbs West Point Grad, Army veteran, and Visiting Fellow at Independent Women’s Forum, details the genuine sense of betrayal from our government, and how the U.S. planted the seed for women in Afghanistan. Also, Meaghan gives a few words of encouragement for our Veterans.
Afghans, the ones who have helped us, are now left in limbo and stranded in Afghanistan, after Biden’s epic betrayal. Sadly, we aren’t just talking about the Afghans. Americans stranded in Afghanistan received a letter from the State Department, stating that they should flee if they can, BUT the government cannot guarantee their safety. The White House cannot even commit to saving Americans! Mike Slater has the ‘true story’ on Afghanistan, and how the elites will never learn their lesson.
President Biden has been playing the blame game on Afghanistan, but do his accusations have any merit? Mike Slater investigates. Plus, what’s going to happen to the thousands of Americans stranded in Afghanistan? That’s the question Mike will attempt to answer. Also, an Army veteran joins the show to discuss how the Taliban treat women.
It’s clear that Biden was unprepared for what happened in Afghanistan. He, himself, admitted that it happened “quicker than anticipated,” causing them to be unprepared. That’s not the problem, though. The problem is that our administration is made up of weak leaders, who trust the experts. The same experts that have done us wrong and lied to us on numerous occasions, and think we are dumb, so they lie to us some more. The same U.S. Foreign Policy experts and intelligence services that Trump refused to listen to and take advice from. We knew this would happen, and we left all those people in the dust who’ve helped us. This never would have happened under Trump. Mike Slater explains why…
