CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC avoid Biden’s bombshell phone call urging Afghan prez to push stability ‘perception’

Ghani warned Biden in July ‘we are facing a full-scale invasion’ by the Taliban and other terrorists, according to Reuters

There appears to be a media blackout in the bombshell report of a leaked July phone call between President Biden then-Afghan President Ashraf Ghani.

Reuters shared transcript excerpts on Tuesday of a July 23 exchange where Biden appeared to urge Ghani to push the “perception” of stability in Afghanistan amid the U.S. military withdrawal regardless of the reality on the ground.

“I need not tell you the perception around the world and in parts of Afghanistan, I believe, is that things are not going well in terms of the fight against the Taliban,” Biden said. “And there is a need, whether it is true or not, there is a need to project a different picture.”
