Let\u2019s examine:<\/p>\n<p><strong>President Joe Biden\u2019s Phone Call with the Fmr. President of Afghanistan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>President Joe Biden\u2019s poll numbers have plummeted thanks in large part to the televised fall of Kabul. Adding to his trouble are reports that during a phone call with the president of Afghanistan, he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/biden-offered-aid-to-afghanistan-if-they-could-change-perception-about-struggle-vs-taliban-report\">conditioned<\/a> U.S. aid on changing the \u201cperception\u201d of Afghanistan, \u201cwhether it is true or not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On July 23, President Biden reportedly told then-Afghan President Ashraf Ghani: \u201cI 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. And there is a need, whether it is true or not, there is a need to project a different picture.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the call, Biden offered aid if Ghani could publicly project he had a plan to control the spiraling situation in Afghanistan,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/exclusive-call-before-afghan-collapse-biden-pressed-ghani-change-perception-2021-08-31\/\">reported<\/a> Reuters, which broke the story.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the importance of the story, many outlets failed to cover it, and others virtually covered it up.<\/p>\n<p>The Washington Post omitted the most serious details and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/2021\/09\/01\/afghanistan-kabul-taliban-live-updates\/#link-PHAPMNIFSRDDXHDBTSPR2T3FLM\">buried<\/a> the rest in a story about how Biden misjudged the might of the Afghan army. Their report does not mention the president\u2019s apparent conditioning of continued military support on Ghani\u2019s changing the \u201cperception\u201d of his faltering regime.<\/p>\n<p>A search on Friday morning turned up no stories in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+site%3Anytimes.com&amp;client=safari&amp;rls=en&amp;biw=1440&amp;bih=699&amp;tbs=qdr%3Aw&amp;ei=TEoyYcfzJsP0tAb8851w&amp;oq=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+site%3Anytimes.com&amp;gs_lcp=Cgdnd3Mtd2l6EANKBAhBGAFQszBYszBgoTJoAXAAeACAAQCIAQCSAQCYAQCgAQHAAQE&amp;sclient=gws-wiz&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjHyd_xmePyAhVDOs0KHfx5Bw4Q4dUDCA0&amp;uact=5\">New York Times<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+OR+perception+site%3Anbcnews.com&amp;client=safari&amp;rls=en&amp;biw=1440&amp;bih=699&amp;tbs=qdr%3Aw&amp;ei=o0oyYfLxGoO-tQaM3aioCg&amp;oq=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+OR+perception+site%3Anbcnews.com&amp;gs_lcp=Cgdnd3Mtd2l6EANKBAhBGAFQjx1YhzBg3jBoAXAAeAGAAfABiAGMB5IBBTQuMy4xmAEAoAEBwAEB&amp;sclient=gws-wiz&amp;ved=0ahUKEwiyz5GbmuPyAhUDX80KHYwuCqUQ4dUDCA0&amp;uact=5\">NBC News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+OR+perception+site%3Aabcnews.go.com&amp;client=safari&amp;rls=en&amp;biw=1440&amp;bih=699&amp;tbs=qdr%3Aw&amp;ei=qkoyYZSZB8fRtQaOhq2wBw&amp;oq=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+OR+perception+site%3Aabcnews.go.com&amp;gs_lcp=Cgdnd3Mtd2l6EANKBAhBGAFQipMBWPSjAWCapQFoAXAAeACAAcIBiAG6BJIBAzEuM5gBAKABAcABAQ&amp;sclient=gws-wiz&amp;ved=0ahUKEwiUlqmemuPyAhXHaM0KHQ5DC3YQ4dUDCA0&amp;uact=5\">ABC News<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+OR+perception+site%3Acbsnews.com&amp;client=safari&amp;rls=en&amp;biw=1440&amp;bih=699&amp;tbs=qdr%3Aw&amp;ei=v0oyYemILtrQtQaU8oHICw&amp;oq=Biden+ghani+%22phone+call%22+OR+perception+site%3Acbsnews.com&amp;gs_lcp=Cgdnd3Mtd2l6EANKBAhBGAFQiFxYgnJg6HJoAXAAeACAAWaIAagFkgEDNy4xmAEAoAEBwAEB&amp;sclient=gws-wiz&amp;ved=0ahUKEwip5NGomuPyAhVaaM0KHRR5ALkQ4dUDCA0&amp;uact=5\">CBS News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Wall Street Journal covered the phone call\u2019s contents on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/president-perception-11630449446\">op-ed page<\/a>, with James Freeman writing, \u201cPerhaps Mr. Biden should have been accounting for the reality of the people who were sitting in the path of this martial hurricane.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rep.
