Another legacy media failure? [View all]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but when Biden withdrew our troops from Afghanistan, the first day was chaotic, but after that it ran like a well-oiled machine. The press latched onto that first day and never let go. They didn't cover the successful evacuations that went on every day after that. And didn't the outgoing Trump administration keep that withdrawal agreement secret from the incoming Biden administration?

Now we find out that Mango Mussolini and his merry band of incompetent lackeys never even had ANY plan at all to evacuate Americans out of there, and what are we hearing from the press?
