Colbert Explains Why Trump’s Criticism of Biden’s Afghanistan Pullout Is Bunk (Video)
As U.S. forces withdrew from Afghanistan, the country’s government basically abandoned ship, setting the stage for the Taliban to essentially win total control with astonishing speed.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s ghoulish comment that the country needs to stop worrying about COVID-19 because “we can’t live forever” stepped over a line for CNN’s Jim Acosta, and he is having none of it.
