Biden postpones Friday plan to head to Delaware home
2021-08-21
[APNEWS] Amid the continuing crisis in Afghanistan, President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing...
postponed plans to head to his Delaware home on Friday and instead will spend the night in Washington.The White House announced the latest schedule change hours before Biden spoke about the chaotic evacuation of American citizens and allies from Afghanistan. The president has been under mounting pressure over his decisions in Afghanistan, which ultimately led to last weekend’s collapse of the U.S.-backed government and complete takeover of the country by Talibs.

The U.S.-led evacuation effort has been complicated by a range of obstacles, from armed Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
manning checkpoints to airport pandemonium to cumbersome red tape.

Though the pace of evacuations has picked up, tens of thousands of people are still waiting to leave. Biden has set an Aug. 31 deadline to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan.

The White House offered no explanation for the schedule change, which came near the end of a topsy-turvy two weeks that Biden had planned to spend in Delaware.

He was now expected to head to Wilmington on Saturday and stay through the weekend.

#2  I have a suspicion his handlers have directed Biden get away from D.C. and the media. The stupid level has just gotten too out of hand. With Kam in Vietnam, it will be interesting to see who surfaces as the real 'leader' of the free world.
