The right thing for Biden to do now is essentially ransom out the thousands of people he didn't bother to evacuate from Afghanistan when the US had all the time in the world. I have no faith in his doing the right thing, but since it's also the pragmatic thing, there's a chance.

Biden had already been in the Senate for two years when Saigon fell, so he doesn't even have everyone else's excuse that this is his first rodeo. Clearly he must have liked what he saw. "That will be me one day," the young Senator whispered, looking at TV footage of Gerald Ford.

This is the idea everyone outside of government had months ago. Biden doesn't want Afghans in the US, but is under pressure to evacuate them from members of Congress who served there, so this is the solution. Let them all come in once they can't get out.https://twitter.com/hugolowell/status/1426946512853118977 …
