I really find this line of argument baffling. The visa backlog is something Biden could have solved at any point through administrative action. He had a completely free hand in deciding what do fo first—withdraw US forces or cut the red tape—and owns his choice.

Also veteran groups have been advocating for using Guam and other bases, and being ignored. The SIV were given a single place in Kabul for “medical checkup”, causing massive delays. The bipartisan reality is so straightforward: we didn’t want to bring them here in large numbers.

How dishonest do you have to be to conflate Trump releasing a handful of travel visas with thousands of SIVs??
