Administration gave Taliban names of U.S. Citizens and allies in Afghanistan.
"In a move no one can grasp, U.S. officials in Kabul gave the Taliban a list of names of American citizens, green card holders, and Afghan allies, believing the Taliban would allow them to enter the militant-controlled outer perimeter of the city’s airport. Lawmakers and military officials are outraged."

One wonders if this Administration could really be that incompetent and naive, or whether they want there to be a massacre.
Taliban forces have already been hunting down and executing Americans who were left behind, journalists, and any Afghans who assisted the Americans, even including language interpreters.
So, does anyone believe the government can be trusted with personal information and is competent enough to make sure that information doesn't fall into the wrong hands?
Hundreds of students and alumni of the American University of Afghanistan were told "there will be no more rescue flights" on Sunday, prompting many to go into hiding.
Students were further alarmed upon learning that the U.S. military had given a list of their names and passport information to Taliban officials guarding the airport in Kabul, according to a report from the New York Times.
"They told us: we have given your names to the Taliban," a 24-year-old sophomore studying business administration told the Times. "We are all terrified, there is no evacuation, there is no getting out."
About 600 students and alumni had gathered at a safehouse on Sunday to gather before attempting to flee the country. However, upon arriving at the airport, they were turned away due to evacuation flights ending as the U.S. focuses on removing its personnel ahead of the Aug. 31 deadline.
