Thanks for posting this
It does show how she is more concerned what you call this problem then the people who are stranded there
Strange that you would post such critical communication mistake from the Biden white house
Though Afghanistan does appear, as you say, way too complicated for democracy; yet, as more information surfaces we Americans at home are getting a clearer picture of the events leading up to troop withdrawal. It would appear that the situation in this regard, at least, is less clouded than it first seemed.
What we don't know yet is how soon the Biden administration realized that the outgoing administration had intentionally sabotaged the SIV program (special immigrant visa) by placing loyalists at the top of the SIV process chain. This was to assure that the SIVs would never get processed before we withdrew, intentionally stranding thousands of Afghans and their families who had helped us. The effort was led by Stephen Miller (the same man that brought us kids on concrete behind chain link under space blankets). The intention of Miller's interference in the SIV program, with Trump's blessing of course, is now clear. It was to insure that as few Afghan's got into the U.S. as possible, leaving them stranded and to their fate under the Taliban.
We now have sufficient documentation and conformation -- Mattis's memo, first hand accounts of those in Pence's office, etc. -- that we can be certain that the foregoing is exactly what happened under Trump. What we don't know yet (stay tuned) is how soon the Biden administration realized that SIVs were being intentionally "slow walked". Presumably they found out in early 2021.. What did they do about it. Or were their hands tied. Biden still hasn't been able to rid us of Louis DeJoy, Trump's man at the Post Office who got rid of the mail sorting machines at the Post Offices -- not that the post office would ever need to sort a lot of mail in a hurry.

A new USA Today/Suffolk University poll finds President Biden’s approval rating has plunged to 41% nationally, while 55% now disapprove of the job he’s doing.
Said pollster David Paleologos: “Biden’s overall approval has taken a turn for the worse due to his awful job performance rating on Afghanistan. His approval on immigration and the economy are also upside down. The only issue keeping him remotely in the game is his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, where he is barely at 50%.”
Who knew leaving people out in the cold can be unpopular?

You can say out in the cold....but never say stranded
On top of training the Taliban in tactics for twenty years and leaving them a plethora of modern military equipment, we've also generously left behind databases filled with details on everyone who has been working against them.
‘An enormously valuable trove’: America’s race against Afghan data
Having seized Kabul, the Taliban can tap into government databases and communications data to go after U.S. allies who don’t get out.

Don't get me wrong, the Taliban are homicidal fucks who are more than happy to issue such kill orders (hence not srs tag).
Our MSM does a piss poor job of vetting certain stories and is more than happy to carry water for conflict profiteers however (hence semi srs tag).
You don't have to go as far as the Gulf of Tonkin or Yellowcake Uranium either:

I personally pushed this one on here even though it seemed a bit suspect at the time (Trump's pull out talks if I recall):
