The State Department’s acting inspector general informed lawmakers Monday that her office is looking into several aspects of the Afghanistan withdrawal fiasco — including the thousands of US allies believed to have been left behind in Taliban-controlled territory, according to NBC News.
Diana Shaw told the heads of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, House Foreign Affairs Committee, and the House and Senate intelligence committees that her office’s probe will focus on issues including the State Department’s Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) program, the processing and resettlement of Afghans in the US and the evacuation of the American Embassy in Kabul as the Taliban approached the Afghan capital in mid-August.
Politico reported earlier Monday that Secretary of State Antony Blinken ordered the review in a memo issued Friday. Ryan Holden, a spokesman for the inspector general’s office, told the outlet that “it is inaccurate to say that these projects are investigations. We indicated to Congress that these projects will be reviews.”
The State Department watchdog’s work is the latest examination of the chaotic pullout, which ended Aug. 30 and is believed to have left hundreds of American citizens and green card holders behind in addition to thousands of Afghans who aided US-led forces in their 20-year war against the Taliban, along with their families. more
Their “probe” is coming up with a way to whitewash it.
Not even the dog iz gonna lick that probe when they’re done with it!!
Ewwww!
So what, it will be three to four years before the redacted report will be ready for release to the public.
SoundS too much like Hill’s illegal server of 5 years ago.
By that I mean COVER UP!
Sounds like the Taliban filed a complaint about Biden’s Travel Office.
Apparently they found a supply of bleach large enough to scrub the evidence!
All done, nothing to see, move along.
Gaslighting by the Deep State of the America people continues…
This is like Al Capone investigating Lucky Luciano.
Mistakes were made, but they had no intent. By the way you have no standing. Case closed, meet you at the bar kind sir.
Yet another laughable ‘probe’.
