In Canterbury talking to the press about the storm damage here. The town was 95% without power yesterday and now only 25% if out. Power should be restored for the entire state by the end of today. https://t.co/pnWhJ8zbRJ — PolitiTweet.org

5/ And today Trump Republicans are making it clear they will oppose bringing more Afghan refugees to the U.S.. Steven Miller: "Resettling [Afghans] in America is not about solving a humanitarian crisis; it’s about accomplishing an ideological objective to change America,” — PolitiTweet.org
Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT
4/ This dovetailed with the assault by Trump and Republicans to destroy other refugee programs that bring Afghans to the U.S.. Obama admitted over 2,700 Afghan refugees. Trump admitted 400, bc he had dismantled the refugee system. Biden had to rebuild it. — PolitiTweet.org
Chris Murphy @ChrisMurphyCT
3/ In 2016, Obama asked to increase the cap for the SIV program. Senate Republicans objected. Then, the Trump Admin started slowing down SIV processing. When Biden took over, there were 10,000 unfilled visas, despite 17,000 applications in the pipeline. — PolitiTweet.org

2/ Over the last decade, Republicans have pushed to intentionally create a massive backlog in the Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program - the one we use to bring Afghan partners to America, by putting onerous conditions on the applications. — PolitiTweet.org

Spare me the make believe indignation from Republicans about the Afghanistan evacuation. 1/ Here's the story of the relentless Republican effort (led by President Trump) to undermine and destroy the programs that help bring Afghan refugees to the U.S. — PolitiTweet.org

This is going to tie Republicans in knots. Most Republicans are going to chastise the President for not saving more Afghans AND oppose the United States saving more Afghans. https://t.co/4wFF0PTtQ4 — PolitiTweet.org

Just finished meeting w @EversourceCT officials at their HQ to go over their response plan for what looks like a massive power outage in CT. I pressed them to get every crew possible into the state. They told me they plan to have more crews here than for any previous storm. https://t.co/9ksoKoBqM5 — PolitiTweet.org

Watching recent events, one might get the impression that things were ok in Afghanistan until the U.S. decided to leave. In 2019, over 10,000 Afghan civilians died/were badly wounded. It’s just there was comparably scant U.S. press coverage in 2019. https://t.co/guQCNZVnNY — PolitiTweet.org

The scenes are indeed chaotic and heartbreaking (and query whether there was any way for the U.S. to avoid those scenes in the wake of the overnight collapse of the government), but these numbers do not suggest the evacuation has been a failure. — PolitiTweet.org
