What I am feeling and thinking about the situation in Afghanistan, I can never fit on Twitter. But one thing that is definitely sticking out is that I haven’t gotten one constituent call about it and my district has a large Veteran population.

The two groups who are declaring political disaster over Afghanistan are the veterans who were there, met the people, worked hard to make things better, and are seeing it all collapsing; and the GOP and media who really really want BIDEN’S KATRINA.

It’s terrible what’s happening, but it was baked into the cake long ago. Biden did what needed to be done: that’s it. We need to take as many refugees (or get them settled somewhere) as we possibly, politically, can.
