None of this has stopped Republicans from continuing to complain

The Biden government’s airlift from Afghanistan was very impressive. You still need to collect any remaining American who want to leave the country along with special immigrant visa holders. The President should honor the commitment to the SIV holders, even if it means extending the operation until all persons with visas who are at the airport are removed.

Republicans and media outlets who pretend the operation failed is the culmination of dishonesty based on willfully ignoring the facts.
