Anthony Blinken’s complete bungling of the Afghanistan pullout is enough to rank him among the worst Secretaries of State ever to hold office. Unfortunately, that isn’t his only major failure. Blinken’s playlist, a mish-mash of music from around the world, looked as though it were curated in order to further American foreign policy and target […]
