well, president biden has given that legitimacy, he j biden has given that legitimacy, he has said thatt me put it that way. his bottom line is he will get all the americans out you want to get out, no matter how long it takes and how hard it is, so with that he has offered the possibility of extending that deadline. whether it is self—imposed because he is the one who made that deadline, he is under pressure here in washington from his allies to extend it, but no one has committed to do that yet. barbara plett usher, _ committed to do that yet. barbara plett usher, thank _ committed to do that yet. barbara plett usher, thank you _ committed to do that yet. barbara plett usher, thank you very - committed to do that yet. barbara j plett usher, thank you very much. we'll get more on afghanistan shortly. but first, we're also expecting president biden to address the extreme weather in the us. this is the scene in tennessee where rescue workers are still searching for dozens of people who are missing after severe flooding there. the floods followed what local reporters described as unpreced

and j biden says the us lead evacuation of americans and vulnerable afghan says accelerated biden says more than 11000 people have been lifted from couple airport just this weekend. it's not clear of this number includes known us evacuation flights. he's been under fire for the pull out of us troops which coincide with the taliban take over. almost all the country. the evacuation of thousands of people from campbell is going to be hard and painful. no matter when it started, when we began. would have been true if we had started a month ago or a month from now. there is no way to evacuate this many people without pain and loss of heartbreaking images. you see a television. it's just a fact. my heart vague for those things, those people you see but biden has also said the taliban has so far kept it's word on allowing access to comple airport. but at least 20 people have died in the chaos of trying to leave the afghan capital in recent days. nearly 6000 u. s. and foreign troops are protecting the airport the vital boards of great concerns that the field could become a target of attack. so

if the current president does it and it's possibpular, it's to j biden's credit and he doesn't want thatbling, let's talk about democratic internal squabbling as well. progressives last week in ohio set back the special election, bernie sanders back a candidate, losing to a congressional black caucus, candidate in the cleveland area. house zrivenlth listen to how a top house democrat hakeem jeffries, had a warning speebing to "the new york times." the extreme left is obsessed about talking trash with mainstream democrats on twitter. when the majority of the electorate constitute mainstream democrats at the polls. in the post-trump era, the anti-establishment line of attack is lame. >> war of words between hakeem jeffries and justice democrat coalition. this, though, speaks to the squeeze that the left is in right now. you have that party trying to say we're not a rubber stamp for joe biden to say anything. we represent the more energized section of the base, the more activist wing of the base, but they are also under real pressure to help deliver a democratic win for this administration.

j able to stamp their own influence. what was interesting in that meeting is president biden had _ a little paper in his hand, i and it hade considering those - attacks which is worrying, because that means iraql would become another opponent. ned, last thought on this. contrasting outcomes in iraq and afghanistan, does that suggest the americans have written off afghanistan as an area of interest and theirfocus remains on iraq? i think it's probably a bit more complicated than that. i think there is a real sense of retreat, like after the vietnam war. still hanging over from the iraq war. in washington, it's very hard to get consensus in favour of significant military involvement, particularly in the middle east. i think in that sense, it's kind of a political triumph to leave some presence in iraq. i think the more general shift is away from the middle east and europe to a certain extent, and this new primary foreign policy focus on the asia—pacific region and china. that's one for another day. and now to the �*any other business�* at the end of every agenda. in the case of dateline, it's the opportunity for each of you
