"Let’s be honest about the nightmare we just witnessed... The Biden administration knew the fall of Kabul was all but inevitable and chose to withdraw anyway." - @mattjj89exponentsmag.org/2021/09/27/sto…
"Anti-globalists may caricature capitalism and free trade as systems that perpetuate imperialism to exploit Africa for the Global North. But Botswana has embraced both and become the most prosperous and freest country in Sub-Saharan Africa." - @lahiroux

"Handwavy math got Democrats into this impasse, and more handwavy math may be the best way out. If centrist lawmakers want to move the Build Back Better agenda forward, they should step outside of progressives’ framing of $3.5T" - @_andyboardmanexponentsmag.org/2021/09/13/dem…

"Nationalist showmanship under Erdogan has guided Turkey towards authoritarianism... With the explosion of nationalism, the erosion of secularism, and the weakening of Erdogan’s political position, what's next for Turkish democracy?" - @SirMichaelCian1exponentsmag.org/2021/09/10/can…
"The U.K. has suffered more than a defeat, and worse than a failure of strategy. The rout in Afghanistan is simply the latest in a series of British foreign policy humiliations." - Andrew Apolostolou

"History will be much kinder to Joe Biden than the current media. Not only did he make the right choice in Afghanistan, Biden demonstrated uncanny political courage in the process. He should be commended, not condemned." - @JoeRJames3

"The Biden admin’s decision to completely withdraw from Afghanistan has proven to be a catastrophic mistake, and after months of delusional reassurances that the Afghan military could resist the Taliban, it’s time to acknowledge this fact." - @mattjj89exponentsmag.org/2021/08/18/its…
"Again, @davidshor's electoral theory was proven right: Progressives overestimated the leftness of a Democratic stronghold. Having claimed to represent BIPOC people, progressives must recognize that black and brown bodies don’t vote for them." - Joe Huang
