The lies that President Joe Biden has told in recent days about the crisis in Afghanistan have been so egregious that every single news network and “journalist” has fact-checked him, including even the ones who usually worship him like a king.
The latest lie was spoken after the president was asked during a briefing Friday whether he’s willing to “sign off on sending US troops into Kabul to evacuate Americans who haven’t been able to get to the airport safely?”
“We have no indication that they haven’t been able to get in Kabul through the airport. We’ve made an agreement with the Taliban thus far. They’ve allowed them to go through. It’s in their interest for them to go through,” he responded.
“So we know of no circumstance where American citizens carrying American passports are trying to get through to the airport. But we will do whatever needs to be done to see to it they get to the airport,” he added.
Listen:
This particular lie triggered widespread fact-checks and condemnation from virtually every major media network in America.
There were fact checks from:
Fox News
“I’m having a hard time digesting what we heard, because I couldn’t fact-check it fast enough in real time. There were so many misrepresentations of what is happening on the ground,” Fox News’ Jennifer Griffin said in the clip below.
“This is an alternate reality that was just presented from the White House,” she added.
CNN
“I spent all night communicating with Afghans, with Americans, with people on the ground trying to get to the airport gate and unable to do so. It doesn’t matter if you’re an Afghan, an American citizen or anyone else, you simply can’t get through the crowd right now to get access to freedom,” Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton, a retired Marine, said in the clip below.
ABC News
.@DavidMuir: “The president said he has no intelligence that the Americans have not been able to get [to the Kabul airport]. The question, obviously—does that square with reporting on ground?”@IanPannell: “I mean—just totally not.”

NEW: Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin in a briefing call with House lawmakers just now said Americans have been beaten by the Taliban in Kabul, according to multiple people on the call. Austin called it “unacceptable.”
— Andrew Desiderio (@AndrewDesiderio) August 20, 2021
This statement alone from Austin contradicts a lot of what Biden just said at the White House about Americans not having a hard time getting to Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul.

Austin’s full quote on Taliban beatings during the House briefing, relayed to us by multiple sources:
“We’re also aware that some ppl including Americans have been harassed & even beaten by the Taliban. This is unacceptable & [we] made it clear to the designated Taliban leader.”

“We have no indication they cannot get through to the airport from Kabul.”
Excuse me, sir, what?

As for the security of the airport, this doesn’t look secure. https://t.co/mKAzaKplhO

Pentagon making it very clear that it’s still hard to get to the Kabul airport despite what Biden claimed earlier
— Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) August 20, 2021
The list goes on and on and on.
By no means was it the only lie from the president.
He also pretended that America’s allies haven’t been questioning his credibility:
Biden was asked about allies questioning “America’s credibility on the world stage.” The president responded, “I have seen no questioning of our credibility from our allies around the world.”

Yet the Times reported earlier that same day that America’s British allies are so disgusted with him that they’ve begun comparing him to former President Donald Trump, a man they’d loathed.
According to the Times, the Brits had “very little” say regarding his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. This despite them having “suffered the second-most casualties among Western nations in the Afghanistan war after the United States.”
“That has left British officials embarrassed and embittered at President Biden. Some say he behaved more like his predecessor, Donald J. Trump, than an ally who promised a new era of American partnership,” the paper reported.
Meanwhile, the president again tried to blame others for his failure.
“We got all kinds of cables. All kinds of advice,” says Joe Biden re the State Department dissent cable.
“I made the decision. The buck stops with me.”
And then blames “consensus” of intelligence divisions

His performance was so poor that it seemed to leave everybody, even his own vice president, feeling uneasy.
I am in no way reassured by Biden presser

Kamala shuffles her feet and looks at the ground as Biden loses himself in another question

In fact, according to WABC investigative reporter Lidia Curanaj, the president’s presser was delayed specifically because Vice President Kamala Harris “didn’t want to come out with Biden” in the first place.

According to unconfirmed reports, she’s desperate to prevent the Afghanistan calamity from being pinned on her.
