During a press briefing Monday, White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan suggested a slowdown in approvals for the Afghan Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program during the Trump administration contributed to the current delays in evacuating Afghans...

..."When we took office in January, the Trump administration had not processed a single Special Immigrant Visa since March of 2020, in nearly a year," Sullivan said.

Facts First: This is incorrect...

...The White House told CNN that Sullivan was referring to the Trump administration stopping in-person interviews in Kabul...

[but the Embassy] was closed for in-person visa services due to the prevalence of COVID-19 ...

They are busy working on all the “it’s Trump’s fault” narratives.

Twenty years ago, someone would have done research for anything mentioned on the air. Today? Research is ancient history.

I'm thunderstruck... CNN is actually fact checking. And guess what it's pretty fair to Trump.

What's next, are they going to call for Biden's impeachment?

A few days it was reported that over 100 personnel on the no-fly list were admitted into the US. Reports fromEurope state that Afghan men commit 50 of the rapes. Apparently the hornady, bearded bastards like Austrian and Swedish blondes.

in the next days and weeks, we’re going to get flooded with stories like the below. God bless the soldier but these stories wil be used to distract by blaming Trump, while justifying/gaining sympathy for resettling afghanis of all stripes not simply our translators and embassy workers and such.

just trying to get FReepers ahead of the coming propaganda game.

Lots of Americans, many on here, are going to regret these refugees, SIV holders and everything else that is coming out of that country.

Most of the folks being flown out, women and children, did NOTHING to help the US.

But have no worries, in about 12 months they will give birth to a US citizen.

So, now we not only have thousands from Mexico, Central and South America, Africa, we’ll also have 7th century savages that in no way, shape, or form share one common trait or norm with us, other than living on this planet.

And I didn’t even mention all the terrorists in the mix.

And, no, patriots will not unite and run these people back to where they came from. We’ll all just dutifully pay the insane property taxes needed to provide everything for all these people.

Exactly.

ATT hates Trump. My guess is a China 5g supply chain.

So what.

We don’t want x thousand refugees over here. We want them to succeed and have a safe country of their own.

and we don’t want blood thirsty terrorists running any country.

The Biden crew is shameless...

There is no more shame in this country...

Bring back stocks and pillories for all these liars & crooks...

Bring back public hangings for the traitors...

Display them on the Mall in DC...with a CNN camera running...

The thought of public shame used to be a check on much bad behavior...
