Grateful for DOD's herculean efforts to evacuate as many as they could before the deadline. Sadly, tens of thousands who requested evacuation, including U.S. citizens, green card holders, allies and other vulnerable Afghans have not made it out. @POTUS, what is the plan for them?
Replying to @WhiteHouse46
Since August 14, the U.S. has evacuated and facilitated the evacuation of approximately 116,700 people. Since the end of July, we have re-located approximately 122,300 people

Talking to a woman, a US citizen, who worked as a translator for the US for more than ten years, who was not able to get into the Kabul airport yet again today. She will try again tomorrow but is completely terrified.
