Biden vacations, while the world is on fire

Multiple crises, on multiple fronts, and Biden is not taking questions

By Tammy Bruce - - Tuesday, September 21, 2021

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

Horsing around. Vacation at the beach. Bike riding with friends. Going to
a football game and tossing the coin. It sounds like a bunch of kids after
school playing hooky, having a good time for the sake of it because
there's nothing else to do. But no, it's the president and vice president
of the United States of America playing around while the country, and the
world, are on fire.

The increasingly strange behavior of not only President Joe Biden and Vice
President of Missing-In-Action Kamala Harris is quite apropos considering
the entire administration is flopping around like a fish shockingly
finding itself on the beach instead of in the waves.

This week, like all the other weeks in the last eight months, was a
rolling disaster. Last month over 208,887 illegal aliens were apprehended
at the southern border, a 317% increase from August of the year prior. Who
knows how many passed through. But what makes the news is a sliver of this
human catastrophe breaking through the Biden ban on filming the atrocity.

The Haitian illegal immigration fiasco at the Del Rio, Texas, border has
understandably shocked and awed the American people. Fifteen thousand
people, at least, creating a shantytown under the international bridge, is
a visual finally allowing Americans to grasp what the Biden administration
has both encouraged and deliberately facilitated through rhetoric and
policy.

Despite the chaos at the border for the past eight months, the Biden
administration finally took action, just at Del Rio, nowhere else. They
hadn't anticipated the Fox News drone bringing video of the debacle to
Americans and the world.

Realizing that the truth was escaping out to the American people, Mr.
Biden had Mayor Pete at the Transportation Department ban the Fox News
drone. That was subtle. It also didn't last long when Fox News fought
back. Bullies often fold when confronted.

But don't worry, Ms. Harris has found a border she doesn't mind visiting -
the doorway into the "The View" studios where she will visit with the
ladies on Friday. Only one question remains - will they bow when she makes
her grand entrance?

The Biden administration tells us they are focused on "policy" and
"legislation." This is in the form of the $3.5 trillion Tax and Burn bill
the Democrats are scrambling to pass because they know we're going to fire
them next year. This garbage bill is akin to arsonists arguing over
whether or not they will set the country on fire using a lighter or flame
thrower. The result will be the same - it's just a matter of how quickly
they'll create the pile of ashes.

In the meantime, the Afghanistan disaster is rolling along, even though
legacy media is using Mr. Biden's "don't look at the terrorists enslaving
an entire nation and the problem might disappear" strategy.

Last Friday, the Pentagon was forced to admit a drone strike that was
supposedly taking out an ISIS terrorist intent on bombing the Kabul
airport was a family loading water into their car, slaughtering seven
innocent children and three adults. The patriarch was an aid worker and
had applied for Special Immigrant Visa status for himself and his family.

This atrocity happened partly because Mr. Biden and his fools wanted to
save face and look "in charge" after the murder of our 13 service members.
Yeah, he's absolutely in charge - of disasters, catastrophes and totally
doesn't discriminate when it comes to who gets blown up. Children,
Marines, aid workers, whatever. As long as it's not our partners, the
Taliban!

Our allies were sucker-punched with our chaotic Afghan exit, a calamity
forcing many of them to arrange rogue operations to rescue their citizens.
The British were so incensed their parliament actually censored Mr. Biden,
with members condemning him on the record in the harshest of terms.

But that wasn't enough for the Building Back Better cretins. They then
decided to sell nuclear submarines to the Australians without mentioning
it to the French, whose conventional submarine deal was torpedoed in the
process.

The French remained outraged, have recalled their ambassador and, as the
Daily Mail reported, "French diplomats in Washington on Thursday canceled
a gala at their embassy to celebrate ties between the U.S. and France
amid mounting fury at the Biden administration's role in scuppering a $90
billion submarine deal with Australia."

In the midst of all of this, Mr. Biden goes to the United Nations to speak
to the General Assembly. Is he going to apologize? Will he explain he's
just the hired help and not really in charge of anything? Will Jill come
to his rescue? Who will cut the mic?! This newspaper's headline highlights
the absurdity of our situation: "Biden presses skeptical world leaders to
work together in first U.N. speech."

No doubt there were plenty of eye rolls in that arena with Iran, China and
Russia enjoying a good laugh.
