A former national security official blamed the Trump administration and Stephen Miller's "racist hysteria" for impeding the visa application process for Afghans who worked with the US.

Olivia Troye worked as the homeland security and counterterrorism adviser to Vice President Mike Pence. In a Twitter thread Friday, she blasted the Trump administration for its handling of the Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) programs that provide a path to US residency for locals who worked with the US government in Afghanistan.

"There were cabinet mtgs about this during the Trump Admin where Stephen Miller would peddle his racist hysteria about Iraq & Afghanistan. He & his enablers across gov't would undermine anyone who worked on solving the SIV issue by devastating the system at DHS & State," Troye wrote.

1. shithole and the effed up administration plus republicans never had plans to . .. .

rescue Afghan allies.

4. Why would anyone think Trump would help others.

Probably because they would and can't fathom people who don't.

8. Probably not.

Blaming Biden for the visa bottleneck makes media outlets look like they are treating both sides without prejudice. Wouldn't want to undermine their credibility with certain eyeballs.

"stephen miller's racist hysteria". Hateful vicious POS passing as a human being.

11. That's what I've been saying all along. We've been there twenty years, and there are thousands

of people who completed work for us long ago, and have been trying to get visas for years. There was no reason Trump didn't pull out and sent to America all except the current, vital employees.

12. Troye has a long Twitter thread

about this. It’s really interesting.

14. This point needs to be distributed more widely.

15. more negligent? homicide by the former admin. This will translate to more deaths.

Hope Garland has room for this case. Sounds like Stephen Miller should be subpoened.
