Absolute bangers all of them

Obama was wrong then. Trump is wrong now.

The Taliban came back into power and democracy died in Afghanistan in no small measure because corruption was eating the country alive.

I pray we can avoid a similar fate

That is what the DOJ decisions on Eric Adams feel like.

Over and over, resignation and resignation, Trump is choosing corruption, publicly and out loud, over the Rule of Law.

If we can’t trust the Justice system to do their jobs we can’t trust anything.

It was like the wind was taken out of our sails.

And worse for our partners in Afghanistan they knew their jobs and their lives and their families were not safe.

Because given the choice between the rule of law and corruption - we had chosen corruption.

What I did not expect, what no one expected, was that President Obama and his team would interfere and give their blessing for the charges to be dropped.

This was big. And it was a test. Would President Karzai and the rest of the Afghan leadership allow this to happen? Or would they shut it all down.

In November 2010 they executed their biggest raid yet.

Arresting an aide to President Karzai who was taking bribes (including a Toyota Corolla) to direct contracts and gov policy

They were very good. We had the best of the best from a half dozen nations training these officers and lawyers so they could have the ability and independence to deal with corruption that was rife in all levels of government - from paychecks to army privates all the way up to the president

We spent more than a year building up the MCTF (major crimes task force) to go after high level corruption in the country

This was to save the US taxpayer and the Afghan people money and suffering
