the taliban close in on the capital. >> inevitably there will be a time, soon we might have to give proof. >> i might be melting just a little bit. >> my resignation will be effective in 14 days. good morning, welcome to sunday, august 15th. after 20 years of war in afghanistan, the country is falling back to the taliban at

stunning speed. the capital of kabul now in it's sites. overnight the united states sending helicopters into kabul to escort americans out of the embassy there before it closes. president biden standing by his decision to end the american presence in afghanistan, but ordering a new wave of troops to ensure a safe withdrawal. and a massive earthquake in haiti has left hundreds dead. and our sunday focus as kids go back to school and covid spikes again in parts of the country. a sometimes ugly fight for masking students and unvaccinated teachers. how some officials are pushing back from their state's orders. >> and the story of black

farmers in america and their struggle to get the funding committed to them in the massive covid relief package. >> and a sit down with an unforgettable actress. and winning a tony award on broadway. all of that just ahead. let's begin this morning with the taliban taking more ground overnight in it's all but uncontested march across afghanistan. now moving in quickly on the capital city of kabul as the united states races to get it's people out of the country. richard engel is in kabul with the latest. >> good morning, willie. the taliban takeover of all of afghanistan is nearly complete. it could be a short time before

taliban falls into taliban's hands. there are negotiations being held between the taliban and the afghan government. those are effectively surrender negotiation investigation which the afghan government would resign, hand over to a transition government that would be lead by the taliban. that could today, it could happen tomorrow, but the city is encircled. they have been able to free thousands of their prisoners that have become fighters. they captured huge stockpiles of weapons, and the taliban is negotiating their capture of the city. while that is happening the u.s. is continuing it's draw down of personnel. we have been seeing helicopters over the skies of kabul. all kinds of airport in a cotant stream to ferry people out. and the evacuation could take three days, three days from now and twuns is complete the u.s.

will close the embassy. >> it was a lonely flight into kabul this morning as afghans are tieing to go the other way and escape their country as quickly as they can. landing at the airport in kabul we saw u.s. military transport on the run ways. the airport is now the only safe way in or out of afghanistan and it has become the staging ground for the evacuation of the u.s. embassy. choppers seen leaving and all day in the city we saw constant helicopter traffic and small aircraft going towards the airport. the evacuation is urgent because the taliban are closing in rapidly. overnight the taliban captured more cities near kabul. government troops mostly not putting up fight. the afghand away. every time they take a base they seize weapons including these sophisticated drones. but the evacuation does not

apply to the vast majority of afghans. today i went to a shopping mall full of afghans packed with people filling out the requests to leave. afghans swarmed around me thinking as an american that perhaps i could help. they showed me documents showing employment history. they have id cards, recommendation letters, employment contracts, and they're hoping all of this paperwork will be enough to get them a visa immediately so they can get out. >> others came here because they're terrified of the taliban and they don't know where else to do. >> her husband died, she is saying, several years ago. he worked for the military, she doesn't have any connection to the u.s., s here out

of desperation saying please, do something, take any son. >> they know kabul has fallen and they want out at any cost. >> and here in kabul there are already preparations being made not far from where i at right now there was a street of beauty parlors. it was popular because women were depicted with their hair newly colored and with full makeup and they were painting over those in preparation for the arrival of the taliban. this morning president biden is standing by his decision to pull out of afghanistan as he sends in thousands of new troops to help in the urgent evacuation. monica alba is at the white house with more. good gd morning president biden

broke days of public silence on afghanistan with a lengthy statement on saturday standing firm about pulling troops. saying one more year or five more years of u.s. military presence would not have made a difference if the afghan military cannot or will not hold their own country. the president stressed that an endless war was not acceptable to him. saying our hearts go out to the brave afghan men and women now at risk. also new overnight, the pentagon deploying an additional 1,000 troops to help with the accelerated evacuation of forces and allies. that is double the presence compared to the draw down if april. the president reiterated a

warning to the taliban saying if they take any action to put u.s. personnel at risk he says it will be met with swift and strong military response. for now the president is expected to be at camp unless wednesday. willie? >> monica, thank you so much. chuck todd, the political director and moderator of "meet the press." a lot of people said this would happen. i don't think they thought it would happen this quickly. but president biden standing by his position saying i'm not going to pass this war on to a fifth president after me. how does that decision look this morning? >> it is -- vice president biden was an advocate for getting out

ten years ago. the pentagon and intelligence folks don't necessarily love this decision, but they acknowledge he had a lot of bad choices sitting in front of him. at the end of the day this is a decision that is on him. he was not so subtle on this saying that president trump negotiated this deal, he want today bring the taliban to camp david, something he decided not to do. he created the situation and tied his hands. all of that is that there is a lot of truth in there. at the end of the day biden is the one at the wheel right now. look, anything that happens, a reconstituted al qaeda, an isis like result like what we saw after the withdraw in iraq. i happen to think that biden can serve eight years and in year

nine something happens and we cision nine years later.it. the afghan military trained by the united states for 20 years is melting away before our eyes. chuck, thank you so much. i know you will be talking about this a lot this morning. chuck will be joined by secretary of state blinken. now to haiti where residents are bracing for more after shocks. an earthquake caused widespread destruction and now a tropical storm could hit as early as tomorrow. vaughn, good morning. >> good morning, willie. there has been 17 after shocks since that initial 7.2 magnitude quake yesterday. there is now turmoil in these

already very poor communities. >> this morning, thousands of haitians in the streets looking for loved ones and neighbors. at least 300 people are confirmed dead and 1800 wounded. >> we don't have many manpower to help. our brothers and sisters, we can't handle by ourselves what is happening in southern haiti. >> the country already one of the poorest in the world left reeling. schools, churches, roads, homes, all gone. in 2010 a powerful earthquake ravaged port-au-prince killing an estimated 300,000. >> this is an area virtually cut off from the capital and a lot of life saving aide right now. >> this young girl saved from
