From my @newrepublic piece on Biden's B+ speech: "What was missing from Biden’s speech was an honest explanation of the colossal intelligence failure that left the White House reeling from the speed of the Taliban’s triumph." https://t.co/JZoXW7FEkN — PolitiTweet.org

@leejcaroll I think it was a failure. Since the same thing happened when the Taliban came to power in 1993. — PolitiTweet.org
