"Retired Generals Under GOP Scrutiny for Afghanistan Withdrawal"

TL;DR Summary
House Republicans scrutinize Generals Milley and McKenzie over the chaotic Afghanistan evacuation, while Democrats accuse Trump of setting the stage for the Kabul government's collapse. The generals testified that the military had a plan to withdraw all U.S. personnel in 2021, but Biden's decision to leave the U.S. Embassy open and withdraw the military led to security crumbling. Democrats face pressure to support Biden, who blames Trump for the situation. The hearing also addressed warnings about the situation on the ground and the deadly bombing near the Kabul airport.
