@mvhaydencenter of course what they said in 2019 is utterly irrelevant to what they were telling decision makers in 2021. It will be interesting when congress/commission goes through this. One hint: If there was a really short time frame scenario, it would have been an airlift not a visa program — PolitiTweet.org

now, did anyone at NSC or WH or anywhere else ask IC: What if you are wrong and it goes to hell in weeks? What's the plan THEN? — PolitiTweet.org

@SykesCharlie that is why they processed ZERO Afghans after March 2020. The Trumpers never intended to bring them out. — PolitiTweet.org

it's a complete dodge for the IC to say well in 2019 we said a catastrophic collapse might happen. What was the *time frame* they gave decision makers THIS YEAR. If it did not include an 11 day scenario it's an IC failure of the worst kind — PolitiTweet.org

agree entirely .. we need to do what we should have done in the first place, up the number of troops and give a deadline based on completion of evacuation. We NEVER anticipated a massive airlift because we failed to see the Afghan army would crumble https://t.co/efHQ7S7KkE — PolitiTweet.org

@SecDef flat out denial that they ever saw a prediction of Afghan collapse in days (vs. months) is a direct shot over the bow of the IC. If IC missed the mark that badly it's a once in a generation intel failure. — PolitiTweet.org

In the fake balance approach, the media rarely let on how aberrant the MAGA crowd and disproportionately right-wing Senate have become. Reporters treat policy debates as an evenly matched ping-pong game w/ false impression the sides have equal strength. https://t.co/SS0Bew0PRc — PolitiTweet.org

We still have firepower on the ground, and we have financial leverage over the Taliban. A skillful administration would be using both to full effect. If we can do that to get max number of people out Biden can regain reputation for competency https://t.co/64r4SM0fQk — PolitiTweet.org

We provoked a collapse of āmorale.ā Without interviewing fleeing Afghan forces, hard to attribute that motivation to 100,000's who handed over weapons. Did everyone lose morale all at once? Reports show Taliban spent 18 mos making deals (bribes) https://t.co/83qmvXC9on — PolitiTweet.org

We abandoned the Afghans. We failed to get people out. False. The airport in Kabul is up and running flights to evacuate U.S. citizens, third-party nationals, interpreters and other Afghan partners. https://t.co/4CQbxFjhkf — PolitiTweet.org
