G7 allies urging him to extend the operation beyond the 31st, a week from today. The taliban calls that date a Red Line. Dana the president will address the american people after the Meetings Today at noon eastern. Right now he is meeting with his own national Security Team. Bill later this morning those same advisors brief House Lawmakers on the crisis Behind Closed Doors. Lawmakers from both sides warning this entire situation is dire.

If by The End of the month this crew doesnt safely get every american out of afghanistan, that we will begin the process to hold each of these failed leaders accountable for their actions.
