Summary

Join Jim and Greg as they celebrate the end of Andrew Cuomo's governorship before digging into three sobering martinis. First, they fume as President Biden says our military presence will end on August 31. That decision means he is accepting the demands of the Taliban, even though many Americans and Afghan allies can't get to the airport and now Afghans are barred from leaving. They also wince as a leaked State Department cable shows just 4,407 Americans have been evacuated with just a week left to get people out. And they discuss the latest "coincidence" adding even more evidence to the theory that COVID-19 started as a lab leak in Wuhan.
