The same people who told us the Iraq War would last 6 months and the Afghan army could be trained to defend the country are trying to make Americans believe that the U.S. could prevent panic after the overnight collapse of the Afghan military and government. — PolitiTweet.org

As I said to @JoyAnnReid, the motivations of this “establishment” aren’t all nefarious. There are a lot of well meaning people who believe there is an American intervention that can solve every complex problem everywhere in the world. But this hubris often turns out to be fatal. — PolitiTweet.org

“It is heartbreaking to watch these images, but it is equally heartbreaking to think about all of the effort, of lives and money we wasted in pursuit of a goal that was illusory,” Senator Chris Murphy, Democrat of Connecticut, told me. https://t.co/NP6LbzLzxO — PolitiTweet.org

This idea - that had we stayed in Afghanistan the ceasefire with the Taliban would have magically continued and no Americans would have died - is a total complete lie that reputable publications keep reprinting. https://t.co/G8elEGza0s — PolitiTweet.org

What happened today is awful and there must be an accounting and there must be a price paid by our enemies. Still, this point Biden is making is heartbreaking but true. It doesn’t mean we shouldn’t move mountains to get Afghans out, but there will be a limit. — PolitiTweet.org

It took me a few years in Washington to understand how much of this town runs on war. Some of this is driven by raw profit motive, but much of it is simply due to the laudable but fatally faulty belief that there is no problem in the world that American intervention can’t solve. — PolitiTweet.org

The fact that it’s just taken for granted that the now unnecessary $3 BILLION in Afghan army training money will be sucked up by some other DoD expense, rather than say, used to help Americans afford child care or community college, is a little bit what’s wrong with Washington. https://t.co/wuUQhJhXHG — PolitiTweet.org
