What does this even mean lol. His admin negotiated some conditions between the Taliban & govt mostly generalities. What infrastructure are you expecting? Those are tactical decisions to be made, his administration wasn't going to sit there and plan flights a year ahead of a withdrawal, that's retarded.
The real failure here is the military's planning. They were blindsided by the Taliban's ability to negotiate surrenders with tribal chiefs and they were completely unprepared logistically. Trump's not at fault for that and unless you have to at least try to be honest with yourself that those types of details are not talked about on such a long timeline.
Biden at the very least should quietly relieve some generals of their command. This is a colossal failure on their side.
he might be inadvertently referring to this:

The Biden administration moved in June to dismantle a system designed to protect American citizens trapped abroad — just months before the Taliban took over Afghanistan, stranding thousands of Americans in the Central Asian country.
Fox News has obtained the June 11 memo sent around the State Department which gave the green light on the "discontinuation of the establishment, and the termination of, the Contingency and Crisis Response Bureau (CCR)."
The sensitive but unclassified memo was signed by Deputy Secretary of State Brian McKeon, just a couple of months before the Biden administration’s botched troop withdrawal that saw Afghanistan fall under Taliban control.
CCR was formed under Trump-era Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and was tasked with providing "aviation, logistics, and medical support capabilities for the Department's operational bureaus, thereby enhancing the secretary's ability to protect American citizens overseas in connection with overseas evacuations in the aftermath of a natural or man-made disaster."
The agency could have played a role in the response to the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan, where thousands of American citizens and allies are trapped behind terrorist lines.
there were apparatuses in place for contingency/crisis responses such as evacuation, but the harris/biden administration paused them
or he just got the lefty infrastructure bill talking points and lefty afghanistan rhetoric conflated. happens to people like him a lot
inb4 “faux news”, “the govt said the program wasnt legit because of Trump” etc.

honestly, i dont believe that in a million years
are they really trying to tell me that billion dollar intelligence agencies with more spies than the rest of the world except china combined and so many veterans on the ground didnt predict that this "army" is complete garbage?
oh i dont buy it either. so it’s either a blatant lie or admission of full-on incompetence
