WASHINGTON, DC - SEPTEMBER 18: A view of the National Mall as supporters of those charged in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol attend the 'Justice for J6' rally near the U.S. Capitol September 18, 2021 in Washington, DC. The protestors gathered in Washington, DC on Saturday to support over 600 people arrested and charged in connection with the January 6 attempted insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.
The Crisis Management Lesson From ‘Justice For J6’ Rally At U.S. Capitol
The Capitol Police were ready this time. Unlike the Jan. 6 resurrection at the U.S. Capitol, law enforcement agencies were well-prepared for any eventuality at Saturday’s “Justice for J6” rally where there were more police than participants.
The crisis management lesson for business leaders from today’s event was “better safe than sorry.” The rally that drew hundreds of people ended Saturday afternoon after about an hour of speeches. There were no known incidents, according to news reports.
The Washington Post said the event was, ‘… the most anticipated visit by right-wing demonstrators to the nation’s capital since Jan. 6, and unease had settled across the city as the day began. Among other things, police were worried about the risk of violent clashes between the pro-Trump protesters and others on a busy Saturday in Washington…’

California recall vote show Trump’s big lie is now Republican playbook
Sep. 19 - ...“This is the Republican party playbook. It’s going to be hard to find, moving forward, any Republican candidate who loses and accepts the results of his or her election. They’re all going to be a big sore loser like Trump.”
Walsh, who challenged Trump for the Republican presidential nomination last year, added: “To be a viable Republican today, you have to lie or you have to deny the truth. You cannot say that Joe Biden won fair and square. You cannot say that January 6th was an insurrection. You’ve got to be careful saying the vaccines work.
“To be a Republican today, you’ve got to pretty much call into question every single election that you lose. This is Trump’s legacy and you’re going to see it again big time in 2024.”
But relentlessly trashing the electoral process could prove counterproductive. Last year Republicans feared that Trump’s claims about widespread fraud due to an expansion of mail-in voting during the pandemic would persuade many Republicans to stay at home. His constant crying foul in Georgia may have cost Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue their seats in a Senate runoff last January... quoted from

Joe Biden faced 'unfair criticism' over Afghanistan withdrawal, says Imran Khan
The prime minister also called upon the US to devise a strategy if a humanitarian crisis broke out triggered by a feared halt in international help to Afghanistan.
Sep. 19 - Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has said he believed US President Joe Biden was targeted with "unfair criticism" over troops withdrawal from Afghanistan and termed his decision as the most sensible thing to do, according to a media report.
In an interview to Russian broadcaster RT, Khan said he wasn't sure whether the US had any coherent policy on what they were going to do in the war-ravaged country, the Dawn newspaper reported on Saturday.
Referring to the US pulling out troops from Afghanistan and commending the American president for his decision, he said, "There was so much unfair criticism of President Biden, and what he did was the most sensible thing to do"... more

Afghanistan and climate change on agenda as Johnson to meet Biden at White House
It will be the Prime Minister's first visit to the White House since Joe Biden succeeded Donald Trump as US president
Sep. 19 - Prime Minister Boris Johnson is heading to the White House next week and is expected to push president Joe Biden on the looming humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan, the potential of reopening UK-US travel and climate change.
In what is billed as an environment-focused trip to the United States, he will urge world leaders to take greater action on their commitments to tackle the climate crisis.
With around 100 world leaders expected in New York at the United Nations General Assembly later this week, Mr Johnson will seek to galvanise action during a series of high-level meetings.
The PM sees the annual UN meeting as an excellent opportunity to impress on major polluters the need to meet their commitments as he prepares to host the Cop26 summit in Glasgow in November.
Many had hoped the president’s arrival would restore the UK and US relationship to full health, but the crisis in Afghanistan has recently put it under strain. source from
