Just to play the advocate, if Trump is still CIC, was he in charge of the withdrawal of Afghanistan? I don't think so. Devolution may be true and I think there is good evidence it is but the military has gone rogue or Trump only has control of certain parts. We have special forces in Ukraine and Israel. I don't think Trump would be okay with that. Maybe I am just stupid and can't see the Big Picture from this far back in the theater.
Was it dead soldiers, or “a video of dead soldiers”, or “a story about dead soldiers”?
Firsthand claims from direct friends and relatives of specific dead soldiers would hold some weight. Videos and photos can be faked and hold much less. Stories hold almost none.

Do you recall the conspiracy theory that the plane was an inflatable or ‘decoy’? Maybe it was a movie........?.....??
I have no clue either way, but the plane-leaving footage was odd in a few ways.
Could also be rogue elements like you say, not everyone everything fell onto line.
I remember a lot of dead soldiers in the botched retreat. I do remember the plane and it did look hokie. I am pretty sure Miley was a traitor.
If I recall, there was speculation DJT was directing the movie to make FJB look bad - basically they set him up.
Who knows though?

They named a road near me after one of them who graduated from the local high school, so there's that.
I have not seen any rebuttal about the dead Marines. If it was faked, the Taliban got a lot of fine weapons out of it!
