All of the officers were involved in the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, which independent reviews have blamed on both the Trump and Biden administrations.

Summary

The Trump transition team is reportedly considering investigating U.S. military leaders involved in the 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal, with potential charges ranging from mismanagement to treason.

The effort aims to review decision-making, assess accountability for the chaotic exit, and possibly recall commanders to active duty for legal action.

Critics, including Trump and his allies, have condemned the withdrawal as a failure, citing deadly incidents like the Abbey Gate bombing and missteps in leadership.

Some insiders question the legality of such actions, while others frame the move as politically motivated.

    Turns out if you rush people for no reason, a lot of shitty, half-baked decisions have to be made.

    Accountability starts at the top. If these officers are guilty of treason, so is Trump.
