Summary

Since the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, the Taliban has completely overthrown the Afghan government. President Biden insists the fall of Kabul was unanticipated but reports later revealed a diplomatic dissent cable was sent to the Secretary of State warning about the Taliban's advance. Representative Peter Meijer (R-MI) predicts future outcomes for the relationship between the United States and Afghanistan. The California gubernatorial recall is fast approaching; ballots are already being sent out for the September 14th election. More than forty candidates from both parties qualified for the ballot in hopes of replacing Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom. Managing Editor of Sabato's Crystal Ball at the University of Virginia Center for Politics, Kyle Kondik explains what the Republican and Democratic parties need to do to recall Governor Newsom and what listeners can learn from the process.
