'Biden lied to the American people': Republican senators rage at president for 'ignoring' Generals Milley and McKenzie's advice to keep 2,500 troops in Afghanistan to avoid a Taliban takeover. Biden lied, people died.
- Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Mark Milley said on Tuesday his assessment was that withdrawing U.S. troops would likely trigger the collapse of Kabul
- He and Gen Frank McKenzie both said they believed 2500 troops would have prevented Taliban takeover
- Their evidence before the Senate Armed Services Committee triggered scrutiny of Biden's claims his advisers did not recommend leaving troops
- Their appearance marked the first time Pentagon leaders have publicly testified since the U.S. completed its withdrawal from Afghanistan
- They were joined by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin
- They faced sharp questions about the chaotic pullout and whether they anticipated the Taliban's rapid takeover of the country
