Biden administration blames Trump for chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal.

TL;DR Summary
The Biden administration released a summary of classified reports that mostly blamed the chaotic August 2021 U.S. pullout from Afghanistan on his predecessor, Donald Trump, for failing to plan for the withdrawal he had agreed on with the Taliban. Republican lawmakers have demanded the documents for their own investigation of the pullout. The summary placed some responsibility for the chaos of the pullout and evacuation operation on flawed U.S. intelligence and military assessments that failed to foresee the speed of the Taliban takeover and predicted that Afghan security forces would hold Kabul.
