FBI, law enforcement threats rise after Mar-a-Lago search


Hey there, OnPolitics readers!

President Joe Biden’s vast foreign policy experience was supposed to be his biggest strength.

Then came the horrific video of civilians clinging to a US military plane as it lifted off from the Kabul airport, the collapse of Afghanistan’s government and a terror attack that killed 13 American soldiers and at least 170 Afghans less than seven months into his presidency.

the chaotic US exit from Afghanistan, ending a 20-year conflict, undercut Biden’s pledge to restore competence to the White House. A year later, it hangs over the Democratic president, even as his counterterrorism strategy yields consequential results with the July 30 killing of top al-Qaida leader Ayman al-Zawahri last month.

Biden’s approval rating fell below 50% for the first time after the messy US withdrawal from Afghanistan and the Taliban’s return to power. His standing of him still hasn’t recovered amid a convergence of other crises, including 40-year-high inflation, supply chain bottlenecks, the extended COVID-19 pandemic and the spread of monkeypox.
