Klain’s feed the past several days has been stuffed with the likes of AARON RUPAR, JOHN HARWOOD, and JENNIFER RUBIN." ''Politico'' even directed readers to "'''WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE WANTS YOU TO READ:''' Chief of staff RON KLAIN and deputy press secretary CHRIS MEAGHER pushed out this NBC Washington story...", and "'''WHAT THE WHITE HOUSE DOESN’T WANT YOU TO READ:''' This ''[[Guardian]]'' story about the [[Taliban]]’s heavy presence at Kabul airport where “in desperate scenes, babies were passed to U.S. soldiers in the hope of giving them a life outside the country.” And this ''[[New York Times]]'' story about the dangerous road thousands of people face trying to get to the airport. “There were volleys of rifle fire, along with pushing, pulling and beating with wooden sticks, [[Kalashnikov]]s and hoses,” the ''Times'' reports. Or this ''[[Reuters]]'' story about all the American military equipment now in the Taliban’s hands. “Video showed the advancing insurgents inspecting long lines of vehicles and opening crates of new firearms, communications gear and even military drones."<ref>https://www.politico.com/newsletters/west-wing-playbook/2021/08/19/the-vps-travel-jinx-494048</ref> | + | As a vital element in the Biden junta propaganda apparatus, during the [[Rape of Afghanistan]] ''[[Politico]]'' solicited tweets from readers for [[chief-of-staff]] [[Ron Klain]] to reweet in an effort to clamp down on the calamitous situation.
