Email Indicates Biden Told Officials in Afghanistan to ‘Fill Out Planes’ Without VettingKristina Wong 26 Oct 2021
An email written by a U.S. diplomat and revealed by Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) indicated there was no security vetting of those allowed to board United States military aircraft and evacuate Kabul as part of the Biden administration’s hastily-called non-combatant evacuation operation.
The August 18, 2021, email from Gregory A. Floyd, whose LinkedIn profile showed he was consul general at the U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan in Kabul at the time of the NEO, said:
Team,
President Biden phoned Ambassador Wilson with the following directive about who to clear to board evacuation flights:
“1. Anyone with a valid form of ID should be given permission to go on a plane if the person plausibly falls into the categories we will evacuate U.S. citizens and [legal permanent residents] plus their immediate families, [local embassy staff] plus their immediate families, those entitled to an [Special Immigrant Visa], and Afghans at risk.
2. Families including women and children should be allowed through and held to fill out planes.
3. Total inflow to the U.S. must exceed the number of seats available. Err on the side of excess.”
This guidance provides clear discretion and direction to fill seats and to provide special consideration for women and children when we have eats. I expect that C17 flight volume will increase.
