Taliban "very pragmatic" and "businesslike" in final moments of US presence, top general says


Gen. Frank McKenzie, the top general of US Central Command, said the Taliban have been “very pragmatic and very businesslike” during the US withdrawal from Afghanistan.

McKenzie said that one of the last things Maj. Gen. Chris Donahue did before leaving Afghanistan was “talk to the Taliban commander.”

The US did coordinate with the Taliban commander on when the US was leaving, “but there was no discussion of turning anything over of that at all,” McKenzie said.

“We did not turn it over to the Taliban. General Donahue, one of the last things he did before leaving was talk to the Taliban commander that he had been coordinating with, as soon as, about the time we were going to leave just to let them know that we were leaving. But there was no discussion of turning anything over of that at all,” McKenzie said.

Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill

Biden BOOM
President Joe Biden announced Wednesday that he was directing the Education Department to use its legal authority against Republican governors who are trying to block local school officials from requiring students to wear masks to prevent the spread of Covid-19.


Speaking at the White House, Biden said some politicians are trying to turn public safety measures into "political disputes for their own political gain" and warned that they are "setting a dangerous tone."


Biden said he had directed Education Secretary Miguel Cardona to wield his oversight authority and take legal action "if appropriate."


"We're not going to sit by as governors try to block and intimidate educators protecting our children," Biden said.

Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill

The Education Department opened civil rights investigations Monday into five states for policies banning school districts from requiring masks, upping the Biden administration’s battle with Republican governors over pandemic policies for schools.


The letters were sent to officials in Iowa, South Carolina, Utah, Oklahoma and Tennessee, all of which bar local districts from mandating masks. The letters allege that these states may be preventing districts from meeting the needs of students with disabilities who are at heightened risk for severe illness should they contract the coronavirus.


The move follows up on President Biden’s promise earlier this month that the Education Department would use its authority to try to stop states from interfering with school districts that want to require masks. Governors argue that masking should be a personal choice for parents and families, and over the last few weeks, the disputes have reflected the larger national pandemic debate over personal freedom vs. public health.


Biden orders Education Department to take action against governors who ban school mask mandates


Biden has come down squarely on the side of school districts, many in big cities, that say the highly contagious delta variant means all people in school buildings should wear masks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says masks are among the most effective tools to prevent the spread of the virus and recommends universal masking in schools as part of a layered mitigation strategy.

The Education Department did not open investigations in Florida, Texas, Arkansas or Arizona, all of which have tried to ban these mandates as well, because the mandates there are not currently being enforced as a result of court orders or other state actions, the agency said.

I'm all for making fun of politicians, but even I can see that was simply cut and pasted to key on his stuttering.
What exactly is this supposed to prove? That Biden has a stutter? Everyone already knows that.

Maybe you can explain "covfefe" to us.
