Now that Baradar will be the new ruler, he and TFG can start to do their nasty business... it's all about the money, folks..

8. Four months ago, Chump posted this memo

Now he's trying to disavow it all, but WE can remember back to April 18, 2021. We can go back even farther.

In February 2020, Chump and Pompeo made their deal with this guy and with the Taliban. Chump assumed he was going to win re-election, and he'd have 4 years to cover-up the deal. He didn't win and now it's all coming out in the open. So Chump is trying to throw blame on Biden. Oh really, why is that? Was there something wrong with the deal?
