On Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” CNN National Security Correspondent Kylie Atwood discussed her report on transcripts of congressional testimony by State Department officials John Bass, James DeHart, and Jayne Howell where DeHart said that tactical operations to get important people to the airport were created “from scratch” and the Bass said that the evacuation “substantially exceeded…the scope and scale of what had been contemplated.” And noted that the descriptions contradict the rosier picture of the evacuation painted by the Biden administration.
Atwood said, “The chaos on the ground after the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, a reflection of the chaos behind the scenes from the State Department. … The officials painted a tumultuous picture of the evacuation, one testifying, ‘[W]e had to…create from scratch tactical operations that would get our priority people into the airport.’ He added, ‘[W]e were roughly as effective as we could be under the circumstances.’ Another saying he was never briefed on an established evacuation plan because, ‘we were already in the midst of executing an evacuation that substantially exceeded…the scope and scale of what had been contemplated.'”

They had years to plan an orderly and safe withdrawal. They turned it into a gigantic Cluster Fark just so Joe could say “I got us out after 20 years.”
Biden ignored the acting up...and voila....disaster.
mmm....more like pulled it out of their nether regions
back of the napkin... right???
I bet any and all insider Pentagon kiss-asses and climbers, knowing that the deep-state political winds had shifted and the plan was to leave Afghanistan, RAN away from any connection to, or work on, the evacuation plan.
Insiders now wanted zero association with it, which means terrible support, terrible execution, and terrible accountability
I’ve seen this phenomenon in many corporate and government bureaucracies.
As effective as we could be? Well yeah you incompetent never done nothing in your lives useless deep state douches. Of course the best you could do was an utter cock-up. We wouldn’t have expected anything more from a bunch of corrupt leftists.
Flour, eggs, some Baking Soda and Baking Powder.
There was no plan.
Eggs. They come from chickens which is meat protein which causes global warming. Just use weaving infested flour for your protein.,
Who are we supposed to believe here?
Add to that a diaper brain for an executive administration, and leadership which should have solidified pentagon leadership here and you have a clear military SNAFU from top to bottom.
What else is knew, everything he touches turns to sh*t
“just so Joe could say “I got us out after 20 years.”
Now he can say he got 20 million foreigners into America in 4 years.
Could have at least bought a copy of "Afghanistan Evacuation Plans for Dummies."
“CNN National Security Correspondent Kylie Atwood” lol, okay. No longer a mere “repoter,” she’s now a “Correspondent.”
DC insiders helping each other come up with the plan from scratch:

Yet hundreds of Afghans knew when and where the US
rescue plane was landing and were safely flown to America.
