-------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Vice President Mike Pence made an unannounced trip to
Afghanistan, where the United States is fighting its longest war in
history. He vowed the 16-year-old war would continue.

Vice President Mike Pence: "We vow to win this war, on our terms, on
this soil. And together with our allies, we came here to Afghanistan to
liberate its people and prevent the terrorists from ever threatening our
homeland again. And we are staying in that fight, and we will see it
through to the end."
