Wednesday marks two years since the end of the Biden administration’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, which resulted in the deaths of thirteen U.S. service members. Their deaths at the hands of a suicide bomber at Abbey Gate in Kabul marked a tragic end to the nation’s largest evacuation effort in U.S. history, officially ending two decades of war. Since then, the Biden administration has faced questions of accountability surrounding the withdrawal, with the Gold Star families of those service members who lost their lives speaking to lawmakers earlier this month. FOX’s Chief National Security Correspondent, Jennifer Griffin, joins the Rundown to evaluate what went wrong and what military officials plan to do moving forward.

Deputy Assistant to the President for Health and Veterans Affairs Christen Linke Young joins the podcast to break down the administration’s plan to lower drug prices, how the pharmaceutical industry’s development of new drugs could be negatively impacted, and when Medicare users will really see these prices drop.
