President Biden delivered remarks this afternoon about the attacks in Kabul, Afghanistan where he accepted responsibility for what happened before blaming Trump during a surreal exchange with Peter Doocy.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki held her own briefing after Biden was finished, and one comment in particular stuck out:
lkp ~ “We have leverage” did Psaki really just say that?! We have 12 dead marines.

Brent Scher ~ Psaki says U.S. has an “enormous amount of leverage” in Afghanistan.
Ah ha, NOW they're gonna allow Kamala to play to her strength ... NOW we're gonna see why she was chosen for Vice President. The White House staff is gonna lube her up, drop her into Kabul, and she's gonna persuade the Taliban with an endless supply of happy endings.
