H.R. 5305, the Extending Government Funding and Delivering Emergency Assistance Act , requires that the DHS secretary submit a written report 60 days after the enacted date that breaks down how many Afghans are in the country. The breakdown must include how many evacuees are at U.S. overseas bases or nonmilitary holding areas abroad, as well as the number of lawful permanent residents, SIV holders, SIV applicants, nonimmigrant visa holders, and refugee referrals.

The Biden team blew all that off. So one has to ask: why? They have lied from the outset about the people that they evacuated, and they continue to try to obscure the nature of the people they evacuated.

According to reports, Biden himself ordered them to evacuate “Afghans at risk” and “Families with women and children” — people who didn’t even have to have helped the U.S. or who hadn’t been previously vetted — to fill up the planes. The Congressional requirement would make them have to explain all that and how many were security concerns.
