Can US recover from Afghanistan debacle?

President Joe Biden's defense of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan was callous, self-serving and deeply unconvincing. Above all, it was beside the point.

When should a leader be told to resign?

Frustration, rage and surging COVID-19

Fall of Afghanistan: sudden collapse years in making

America's longest war is coming to an abrupt and messy end with images of helicopters over Kabul looking startling like the fall of Saigon when North Vietnamese forces took South Vietnam's capital in 1975 and overstuffed choppers hurriedly carried away the last of U.S. diplomatic, military and civilian personnel.
