   How so?   
      
   Trump had NOTHING to do with the granting of asylum, no more than Biden had in   
   hiring of Rahmanullah Lakanwal... right?   
      
   The granting of asylum in the United States is typically done by the U.S.   
   government, specifically through the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services   
   (USCIS) or the U.S. Department of State.   
      
   In the scenario you described, if the U.S. government "hired" a foreign   
   national in Afghanistan and then granted them asylum in the U.S. after the   
   war, the granting of asylum would likely involve the following steps:   
      
   The U.S. government, through the Department of State or the Department of   
   Defense, would identify the individual and determine that they are eligible   
   for asylum.   
      
   The individual would then be referred to USCIS, which would review their   
   eligibility for asylum and conduct an interview.   
      
   If the individual is deemed eligible, USCIS would then grant them asylum,   
   which would involve providing them with a document, such as a Form I-94, that   
   confirms their status as an asylee.   
      
   THE ACTUAL GRANTING OF ASYLUM WOULD BE DONE BY A USCIS OFFICER, who would have   
   the authority to make such a determination. THIS OFFICER would review the   
   individual's application, conduct an interview, and verify their identity and   
   eligibility for asylum before making a decision.   
      
   It's worth noting that the process of granting asylum can be complex and   
   involves various government agencies and departments. However, in general, the   
   U.S. government has the authority to grant asylum to individuals who meet the   
   eligibility requirements, and the USCIS IS THE AGENCY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING   
   SUCH DETERMINATIONS.   
      
   The President is not directly informed of asylum determinations and   
   approvals.   
      
   =====   
      
      
   If the CIA hired an individual in Afghanistan, the process of hiring them as a   
   "special agent" would likely involve the CIA's Directorate of Operations (DO),   
   WHICH IS RESPONSIBLE for conducting human intelligence operations overseas.   
      
   The specific individual or entity responsible for hiring the agent would   
   likely be:   
      
   1.) A CIA Station Chief or their deputy, who oversees CIA operations in a   
   specific country (in this case, Afghanistan)   
      
   2.) A CIA Case Officer, who is responsible for recruiting, handling, and   
   managing foreign nationals as agents   
      
   3.) A CIA Operations Officer, who is responsible for planning and executing   
   operations, including the recruitment and management of agents   
      
   These individuals would typically work together to identify, recruit, and   
   manage foreign nationals as agents, and would be responsible for making   
   decisions about who to hire and how to utilize them.   
      
   In terms of specific titles, the individual responsible for hiring the agent   
   might be:   
      
   A Clandestine Operations Officer (COO)   
   A Special Activities Officer (SAO)   
   A Case Officer (CO)   
      
   These individuals would work together to evaluate the agent's skills,   
   experience, and potential, and to determine whether they are suitable for hire   
   as a "special agent" in country.

   > Also a nice distraction from the EPSTEIN files.   
      
   Tell us, Einstein von Brainstorm Mind Reader... in what context is Trump in   
   the Epstein files?   
      
   > >> The suspect was identified as 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah

   > >> 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal.   
   >   
   > And he was granted asylum under Trump.   
      
   So?   
      
   And?   
      
   If Trump is guilty of "letting" him be granted asylum (he's not, because he   
   has NO knowledge of granted asylees), then Biden is "guilty" of hiring him in   
   the first place.   
      
   This is what you called "impeachment by implication". If Biden hadn't hired   
   him...   
      
   Do you get that, liberal lying Democrat pussy faggot?   
      
   Sorry... I forgot... liberals CAN'T get smarter... liberalism eats away at   
   that part of the brain.   
      
   =============================================================================   
      
   "Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition   
      
   All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.   
      
   "Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has   
   been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the   
   point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."   
      
   Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the   
   Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or   
   stages:   
      
   "In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The   
   president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were   
   all it took to change the world."   
      
   "The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's   
   vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of   
   hyperbole."   
      
   "As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from   
   reality."   
      
   The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk   
   opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump   
   announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would   
   suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.   
   There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be   
   received positively by TDSers.   
      
   The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early   
   2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-   
   night comics and nothing more.   
      
   Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first   
   coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.   
   The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in   
   otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -   
   the very existence of George W. Bush."
