Probably because Biden abandoned Afghanistan and let it fall back into Taliban hands, and Trump relentlessly attacked him on it. Obviously Trump would have been no better and permanent occupation wasn’t an option but I still understand why an Afghan couldn’t vote for someone from the Biden admin.

Unbelievable story of Afghan refugee, a highly vetted fluent English speaker who helped the US against the Taliban and now lives here with his US citizen kids, declared “illegal” and perhaps about to be shipped home by the Trump admin to his likely death

Whelp, survived the JPL layoffs. Thankful, but oof, we lost serious, irreplaceable talent. Call your Congress folks and let them know what an unforced error this was because of the current criminal administration who don’t have a 🤬 clue what this country does or can do.
