Republican lawmakers accused the Biden administration of lying to Americans and sacrificing the safety of US soldiers during the 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal, in a report that sought to implicate Vice President Kamala Harris before the presidential election.

The report said President Joe Biden’s team “misled and, in some instances, directly lied to the American people at every stage of the withdrawal.” The administration’s failures led directly to the killing of 13 American troops in a bomb blast at Abbey Gate in Kabul, it said.
