Since seizing power last year, the Taliban have imposed a slew of restrictions on civil society, many focused on reining in the rights of women and girls to comply with the group's austere brand of Islam.
Earlier this month, Afghanistan's supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada issued a diktat for women to cover up fully in public, including their faces, ideally with the traditional burqa.
The feared Ministry for Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice ordered women TV presenters to follow suit from Saturday.
But the presenters defied the order and went on air with their faces visible, only to fall in line with the directive on Sunday...

Taliban has "Prevention of Vice"
Biden sends out crack pipe kits...
I wonder how many woke-a-trons would stop identifying as females if they had to cover their faces?
One things for sure.... there’d be a lot more liberal guys parading around as women then. Those mother fuckers are FREAKS! [Reply]

Mumblin' Joe let the cat out of the bag on this as well, characterizing catastrophic gas prices as 'an INCREDIBLE TRANSITION.'
I'm gonna restrain the vitriol that should by all rights freely flow, and limit myself to admonishing generally that there are a lot of moderates and emotionally drive/single-issue voters that owe us a heartfelt apology . . . [Reply]
Wait until this "incredible transition" bears fruit. It's coming.
NEW: A group of 32 illegal immigrants dressed in camouflage flees from a @TxDPS helicopter in the remote Big Bend sector, which we just visited last week. People who cross illegally in this desolate area do not want to be caught and are not surrendering themselves. @FoxNewspic.twitter.com/8yHiaREHXF
