With the caveate that chaos makes it hard to know what’s going on and easy to get a partial story, this seems like a travesty.

The original story comes from the New York Times, but reading some of the implicitly pro-Biden replies to the linked tweet trying to cast doubt on it raises an important point:  None of this was necessary.  The U.S. supposedly set the time frame and could have gotten these people out earlier.  That is, the chaos, itself, is a catastrophic failure even if these folks survive.
