Not as important as tampons in boy's bathrooms, but Tommy Fisher, North Dakota-based contractor Fisher Sand & Gravel, Fox News, and DJT + could be the biggest scam you probably never heard of.

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

"None of Washington’s errors in Afghanistan was greater in scope than the peace agreement signed with the Taliban in February 2020."

"The US Army issued a blistering statement Thursday that claimed the Trump campaign flouted federal laws when he posed for a photo with Gold Star families at Arlington National Cemetery — allegedly leading to a physical altercation between campaign staff and a cemetery employee."

None of the "alleged" incident would have happened if the family members at Arlington that day hadn't become Gold Star family members.

Checks watch. Yes Biden was the Commander in Chief.

According to the Hoover Institute, "The Doha Agreement Guaranteed US Failure In Afghanistan. -- ... the poorly negotiated US-Taliban agreement undermined the Afghan government and institutions and facilitated the Taliban’s rise to power ..."

"... the Doha Agreement — negotiated between the United States and the Taliban — had a negative effect on Afghan government forces,..."

"Retaining Bagram airfield as an evacuation point would not work. It would have required about 5,000 American service members to run and defend the base. In addition, it's 30 miles from Kabul, — the main population center, so it wouldn't have been an easy place for evacuees to reach."

Only on HQ2 are we relitigating the withdrawal from Afghanistan.  Looking forward to more endless arguing in 2025!

Unfortunately, I think a lot of people haven't really processed the fact that we lost the war.  Over the nearly twenty years of US forces occupying Afghanistan, under four Presidents, around 2,400 US military personnel and 1,800 US civilian contractors were killed.  The objectives of the war, the replacement of the Taliban government with a less repressive one that would suppress terrorist activities, and the capture or killing of al Qaeda leaders, were not achieved.  That is what needs most to be remembered about Afghanistan.
