markets performance today after that shellshock of a trading day yesterday? a lot of market technicians look at this stuff and say after a huge sell off, it s kind of nice to see the next day be an update. it wasn t. it was better than yesterday, but all of this comes at a time when there s growing pressure to see what happens in china could ever happen here. most experts say no for the time being. but we have our own problems here. debt ceiling breach that could come sooner than we think. they re pushing that off. we re going to talk to senator john thune about the republican effort to challenge the democrats for punting on this one. we ll get the read on that shortly. the battle overhandling all of this almost simultaneously. that could weigh on stocks as well. first, susan li on what happens to the earlier very strong update. susan? not much of a rebound after the worst day for the stock market since mid may on monday. it was all over the place. google investors trying t
over 200 people injured. citizens, our friends, our this is thousands of our own american family and yes, american allies remain trapped, all across the country, all of them behind enemy lines, all of them hostage to the whim of the taliban and others. it s harder to get inside hamed karzai airport. with reports that we re told the taliban could be in full control now in a matter of days. some predict as early as this weekend. the worse, the death and destruction and carnage all easily preventible. so easily preventible. joe biden is defiantly locked into his disastrous decision that has rendered us a failure here. why he s tripled down on this failure is anyone s guess. why he s abiding by the taliban deadline also a mystery tonight. why he s not sending in additional troops to rescue every single solitary american behind enemy lines is unforgiveable. why he s so accepting of the idea that americans will be left behind is beyond anything that any good american that i know of
readily identified by all sorts of people that you guys are willing to take responsibility for yourselves? thanks. let my say two things. first, with regards to the numbers, as you ve seen by how i laid out how we get to the numbers of americans, this is both incredibly complicated and incredibly fluid. any number i give you right now is likely to be out of date by the time we leave the briefing room. so what we re doing is very carefully tabulating everything we have, cross checking it, using different databases. we ll have numbers for the different categories in the days ahead and after this initial phase of efforts so bring people out of afghanistan. with regard to the second part of your question about taking responsibility. i take responsibility. i know the president has said he takes responsibility. i know all of my colleagues across government feel the same way. i can tell you that there will be plenty of time to look back at the last six or seven months, to look bac
to follow up quickly is. there an education camp, information sent in to stakeholder as cross the country that may have some concern sorry. domestically here in states? yes. yes. we re in touch with governors, local authorities, communities, engaging with local media. there s an understanding of the stringent process that we have in place before individuals come to the united states. and i think a part of that is a reminder that these are individuals that fought alongside the united states over the last 20 years. that s part of who we are as a country. part of the fabric of the united states. so that s part of it as well. in terms of a specific vetting components, we re thinking about that and ensuring we re communicating that effectively. that s our objective. go ahead. can you share more about the possible incidents of havana syndrome that the vice president has talked about? sure. i ll say that the vice president is now in country, in vietnam. certainly we ta
the last 24 hours. the taliban is clearly calling the shots, dictating the terms and the deadline of august 31 now just eight days away on when they say we have to be gone. if the u.s. or the u.k. wanted to extend their 31st of august deadline in order to continue evacuations out of the country, would you agree that? no. why not? this is a red line. it will provoke a reaction. lara logan has been covering afghanistan for 20 years. ryan crocker is the former u.s. ambassador to afghanistan and a number of surrounding countries. both are standing by. we begin with senator tom tillis that writes in an op-ed that says don t let the taliban dictate the terms. senator tillis, thanks for being here. you and your office are working around the clock to answer as many requests from people who are passing them along to you. i think we all thank you for the work that your office is doing right now. it is not necessarily something that falls upon senate offices to take that und
