President Biden was personally involved in solving problems at the Kabul airport during the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, directing people on the ground to find ways to get Afghans at risk out of the country, a new book details.
The first excerpt of Atlantic staff writer Franklin Foer’s “The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future” was released on Tuesday. The excerpt, “The Final Days: Joe Biden was determined to get out of Afghanistan—no matter the cost,” recalls the U.S. troop withdrawal in August 2021.
The book’s release comes as the country marks the 2-year anniversary of the chaotic withdrawal, one of Biden’s first major foreign policy moves as president. House Republicans have been investigating the withdrawal, which they dubbed “disastrous.”

I heard that Joe Biden invented air traffic control. Or maybe that was Al Gore.

All joking aside, it would be terrifying to find out this dementia patient was micromanaging activities at the airport.
Joe was likely having a nap and eating his pudding during the Afghan debacle. Joe is a figurehead…the shots are being called by a cabal of leftists and Obama administration retreads likely with Obama setting the agenda.
So...... He is responsible for issuing order to stand down snipers with homicide bomber in sights?
That is the next question for any media propagandist?
chaotic and deadly and a complete FU.
The House is having a hearing on this right now. It’s on CSpan.
The father of Darin Hoover is ripping the administration a new one.
None of it will make the news. I wish FOX would show clips on their evening shows, given they all cover the same topics every night.
Foer was the editor of The New Republic during the Beauchamp scandal. Total clown.
Oh yeah. That’s a book to buy. Reminds me of Bob Woodward’s crap.
