A compelling column by @JillDLawrence about the never-ending threats to women around the world -- and not just in Afghanistan. https://t.co/39NWHFiGY0 — PolitiTweet.org

@LeapfrogMark @newrepublic @JoeBiden I hope the article didn’t imply that it was Biden’s fault alone. Any more than Vietnam was Jerry Ford’s fault. If the article was murky on this point, I apologize. — PolitiTweet.org

@JRubinBlogger @newrepublic Appreciate it. As you know well, writing off a speech on tight deadlines is a high-wire act and all you can do is to hope that you hit the net. — PolitiTweet.org

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

Of course, this won't change the anguished realities in Kabul. But Biden should deliver in the next few days a prime-time Oval Office Address explaining to the nation what happened in Afghanistan and what lessons have been learned. This is about US democracy and not US politics. — PolitiTweet.org

This was written four days ago. Even in my pessimism, I couldn’t have imagined that the fall of Kabul would occur in less than 100 hours. It is so so sad that all America offered at the end were tears. — PolitiTweet.org

I wish there was some form of humanitarian intervention to save Kabul. But, tragically, that isn't in the cards. I so mourn for the Afghans who wanted to live in a normal country. https://t.co/ugPShWvRt7 — PolitiTweet.org

In @newrepublic, I mourn for Afghanistan. Tragically, with the global pandemic and cataclysmic climate change, "the fate of Kabul and the fate of the Afghans who believed America’s promises don’t amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world." https://t.co/ugPShWvRt7 — PolitiTweet.org
