The Biden regime keeps touting sheer raw numbers to boast about its evacuation success. Aside from leaving Americans behind, it’s unclear whom it did evacuate.
The U.S. left behind the majority of Afghan interpreters and others who applied for visas to flee Afghanistan, a senior State Department official said on Wednesday, despite frantic efforts to evacuate those at risk of Taliban retribution in the final weeks of the airlift.
Over 20,000 Afghans who had applied for the Special Immigrant Visa program remained in Afghanistan when Kabul fell to the Taliban on Aug. 15, according to advocacy groups and congressional officials.
Including their family members, as many as 100,000 Afghans may be eligible for relocation.
According to Biden, we evacuated over 100,000 from Afghanistan.
If those people are not the visa recipients, whom did we evacuate?
In the early days of the evacuation effort, thousands of Afghans crowded Kabul’s airport seeking a way to flee the country. Some made it through without paperwork, while American citizens and visa applicants were unable to enter.
That’s a hell of a success story.
The U.S. still doesn’t have reliable data on who was evacuated, nor for what type of visas they may qualify, the official said
The basic questions to be asked are what criteria were actually used to allow people to board planes?
Some Americans were kept out. So were a bunch of people with green cards. And apparently most SIV holders. So who the hell was allowed to board those planes and why?
