The "they chant death to America, but seem friendly" storyline is fabricated by leaving out crucial context. It's a nothingburger hyped up by the right-wing outrage machine:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/08/16/ted-cruz-ugly-attacks-cnns-clarissa-ward/

Here's the full-length clip from which this quote originates:
https://twitter.com/NewDay/status/1427231696878018564

The reporter goes into great detail about the ambivalence and contradictory nature of the situation in Kabul during the Taliban takeover. In this context, she says "they chant 'death to america', but seem friendly. it's utterly bizarre". So no, she does not consider the Taliban to be friendly fellows, she explicitly notes how contradictory the friendly manners of the Taliban during the select encounters she had that day are when contrasted with these guys' ideology and political agenda.



When did you get into writing shit posts?

Too bad those restaurant owners are probably the most to suffer from these nonsensical edicts and probably already hate DeBlasio with a passion. This is only further punishing the victims.

yeah unfortunately Wananbe dictators like Warren Wilhelm Junior (aka bill de blasio) are just destroying small businesses, still taxing them up the wazoo when demanding they operate under reduced capacity or other draconian measures, while they collect taxpayer dollars to pay themselves no matter what
