      Briefly watched the KTVU morning news this am, and was struck by two stories.

      First, was that California students (perhaps it was Bay Area students) have fallen behind by almost a year to where they should be, in both math and reading. Oakland students even more so. Conveniently, they blamed the pandemic. They should have blamed the government and teacher unions’ reaction to it.

      The other story was a about a girl who escaped Afghanistan right after the fall. She lamented all the lost opportunities for Afghan girls still there, and the rights that they have lost.

      Neither is a surprise. Also not surprising was the lack of culpability in either story.

      No mention of Biden and the logistics of the fall of Afghanistan in the NY Times or the NPR stories about the anniversary.  Apparently ABC ran a long video on the fall and also didn’t mention Biden.  Left-wing Twitter is out to try to blame Trump today, which has been interesting.

      Bad things that happen during the Biden administration happen TO the Biden administration, not BECAUSE of the Biden administration.

      Also, no one has been held accountable for the kids killed in the mistaken drone strike on the aid worker and his family.
