The Trump transition team is assembling a list of military officers, both current and former, who were involved in the chaotic 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal. This initiative aims to explore whether some can face court-martial, with treason among the charges under consideration.

Led by former Pentagon official Matt Flynn, the effort seeks accountability for the botched exit, which resulted in American casualties and widespread criticism. The Trump team is also weighing the creation of a commission to investigate the withdrawal’s failures and decision-making processes.

The initiative underscores a serious push to address perceived leadership failures during the withdrawal. Critics argue this could set a precedent for scrutinizing military and political accountability in high-stakes operations.
