Miller’s maternal ancestors came to the U.S. and avoided anti-Jewish pogroms in Belarus. He wants to deny fleeing Afghans the same opportunity to avoid being massacred. He is a truly awful human being. https://t.co/CDro98eBCq

I think David is right here, but I'll foot-stomp this again: They were trying to avoid "blame and shame" because there was no way to have an adult discussion with the American public - or its elected reps - that didn't involve partisan accusations of "losing the war." https://t.co/Yjz4DEfNXD

Yes, I will take the inevitable fall of Kabul (since it's what the American people have demanded for years) over a president who tried to set the Constitution on fire, overturn an election, and sell out America to its enemies.
That's my choice? Then yes, I'll take that trade-off. https://t.co/BoKEnLljpv

“Become” a thing on the right? They elected a guy who tried to implement a ban on Muslim immigrants and wanted him re-elected. https://t.co/I1tlunUSu5

The thing that upsets me about the situation in Afghanistan isn't that it collapsed so quickly--that was a foreseeable consequence of the entire policy. Rather, it's that we didn't evacuate our allies first while we still had a robust security infrastructure to do it.

Biden needs to own this decision. Yes, Trump drew down troops. Yes, Trump invited the Taliban to Camp David on 9/11.

But, Biden made this call. He needs to acknowledge the devastation & the mistakes & tell the American people he still thinks it was the right thing to do.

Trump invited the Taliban to Camp David and freed 5000 Taliban prisoners to appease them for a temporary ceasefire. He can sit down. https://t.co/I25HtSvl5I

Trump in April: “Getting out of Afghanistan is a wonderful and positive thing to do. I planned to withdraw on May 1st, and we should keep as close to that schedule as possible.” https://t.co/RzbLQePTMD pic.twitter.com/KEs5x3zAJQ

Holy shit! Bring the Afghans here. Stop the bullshit with third party countries. To hell with Fox News and the racists. Put them on planes and get them here. I am so damn sick of the idiotic navel gazing and bureaucratic stupidity. Get this done.
