When pondering Biden's White House reasoning, this resonates:

“Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leaves behind in human beings at least a sense of unease. Against stupidity we are defenseless. Neither protests nor the use of force accomplish anything here; reasons fall on deaf ears; facts that contradict one’s prejudgment simply need not be believed – in such moments the stupid person even becomes critical – and when facts are irrefutable they are just pushed aside as inconsequential, as incidental. In all this the stupid person, in contrast to the malicious one, is utterly self satisfied and, being easily irritated, becomes dangerous by going on the attack. For that reason, greater caution is called for when dealing with a stupid person than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.” Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Lutheran Minister, Hitler assassination conspirator

Thanks for that quotation.
I was pondering all that myself just recently.

Funny that service members would say something that stupid. Do you have a family? Are they protected on a military installation? Probably not. You are playing a very dangerous game.

Hopefully the moron in the previous video is not representative of our military today.

What would they say?
Their tongues are tied by Top Naval Leadership.
Do you not believe those that would restrict free speech of others would suppress her free speech?
No the same Leadership would be scared to suppress her free speech.

Top leadership at the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) informed active duty and retired service members that they cannot condemn President Joe Biden amid the chaotic — and now deadly — pullout of American troops from Afghanistan.

In an email from the ONI’s Chief of Staff, ONI members were reminded that per a Uniform Code of Military Justice and Department of Defense Directive clause they cannot disrespect senior government leadership. This includes the President, Vice President, Congress, the Secretary of Defense, and more.

The Military is now led by those that would support her free speech.
While suppressing those that criticize Joe, Austin, & Milley.

Speaking against that young lady would be very detrimental to their careers.

Who cares if little Butchie Brenda is running her jaws? My original comment stands. This broad is KIA within 10 minutes of the first bullets flying. She is nothing for anyone to concern themselves with.

Apparently Sleepy Joe isn’t admired and revered by the GOP.

Calling fir is resignation.

Imagine that.

Why not file articles of impeachment? That would be far more entertaining to watch as there is actual evidence readily available and you don’t need to make things up.

Watching the spineless cowards ignore real impeachable offenses is frustrating.

Who, specifically, in the Republican party is calling for it?

He won't resign, of course.

Well that's a bullfighter lowering his sword and cape and then daring the bull to charge him.

From the linked-to article:
quote:
Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) on Friday formally called for President Biden's resignation following the deadly suicide blast in Afghanistan which resulted in the death of 13 U.S. servicemembers, and called for Vice President Kamala Harris to step up if he refuses and "initiate 25th Amendment procedures to remove Joe Biden as President of the United States." [emphasis added - IC]

If she fails to do so, Brooks said Congress should pursue impeachment and investigate whether to do so under Article 2, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution "for the commission of 'treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.'"*


That's breathtaking. First daring them to invoke the 25th Amendment on Biden just like they would've on Trump. Then, as an extension, daring them to make that vicious moron Harris the President. I don't know that we could be any worse off that way, but it sure looks like it's its own special little slice of hell to me. It's probably a good thing that the Dems will never take that bait.

OTOH, it sure is a neat way to point out the precedent that the Dems are building when it comes to the 25th Amendment. If they leave Biden in office, how messed up would a Republican President have to be before the Dems could press for his or her removal from office?

*For the record, the charge of treason would be based on giving America's enemies "aid and comfort" in the form of aiding and abetting in the transfer of advanced American weaponry to the Taliban and other terrorist groups who have proven themselves to be the enemies of the United States.

OAN Newsroom
UPDATED 2:02 PM PT – Saturday, August 28, 2021

Large suicide attacks have rocked Kabul and shaken many American’s confidence in leadership. 13 flag draped coffins would be coming home following Thursday’s attacks, which has been the largest loss of life for Americans in Afghanistan in over a decade.

Calls for Biden’s resignation were made by Republicans before Thursday’s attacks for his mishandling of the withdrawal. After the loss of American lives, the calls became more numerous and forceful from the GOP.

Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert (R) called on everyone from Biden to Kamala Harris and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to resign.

“America, Joe Biden needs to resign. Kamala and Nancy can follow him out the freaking door,” she asserted. “Too many Americans have sacrificed everything. Too many Americans have died. This failed leadership has to end.”

New York Rep. Lee Zeldin (R) believed the disaster in Afghanistan has proven Biden was not up for the job of being president. He added the top priority should first be getting Americans out of the Middle Eastern nation. Following that, he said Biden needed to go.

“Beyond that, there needs to be a heck of a lot of accountability. I really don’t believe that his president can stay in this position,” he expressed. “I believe that he should resign. Me personally, that’s my opinion, I don’t think he’s up to the job and I believe that the worst is to come.”

The Republicans House Conference Chair Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) didn’t just call on Biden to resign. She declared the blood of the soldiers lost was on his hands and called the humanitarian disaster the result of incompetent leadership. She has remained the highest level Republican lawmaker to demand for Biden’s resignation.

GOP House Leader Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) issued a strong rebuke of the loss of Americans under Biden. He said there would be a day of reckoning for Biden, but stopped short of calling for his resignation or impeachment.

“There will be a day of reckoning. We have a constitutional rights. Right now, in the next five days, everyone’s responsibility should only be focused on getting the Americans out,” he stated. “…When that day passes, we can take up anything that, to hold accountable for the actions that have been taken. The lives that have been given.”
