The Majority Report crew react to tweets from Richard Engel’s, a @NBC News's reporter who in early 2020 questioned why an agreement between the United States and the Taliban for American troops to leave Afghanistan hadn’t been reached sooner, and how Engel’s position had changed to view the Taliban as an ongoing threat to the United States.

EV: And they're meant to buttress a specific story that is fed to them by those sources who are also cherry-picking their intelligence that they leak to these reporters when they could have a trove of other intelligence that contradicts it, in order to feed one narrative.
