Former Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux told the Daily Caller News Foundation that his nonprofit organization had organized bus transport to the Kabul airport for 100 Christians, 300 orphans and 25 American citizens before sunrise on August 26, 2021.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2021/08/30/ron-johnson-american-citizens-blocked-kabul-airport-state-department/</ref> But when the evacuees arrived at the airport, Robichaux said a “military commander” made a scene and made the evacuees leave the airfield. “He really created a scene with us, did not like what we were doing and how we were doing it and actually made the people get back on the bus, put them outside the gate and essentially sic them back off to the Taliban,” Robichaux said of the military commander, which he identified as the commander of the 82nd Airborne Brigade during a separate interview with Newsmax.<ref>https://twitter.com/newsmax/status/1431018570822062081</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/laralogan/status/1432470776205217808</ref> Army Gen. Chris Donohue is the commander of the 82nd. “Donahue, one of the last things he did before leaving, was talk to the Taliban commander he’d been coordinating with…about the time we were gonna leave just to let them know that we were leaving,” McKenzie said.<ref>https://www.defenseone.com/threats/2021/08/inside-final-hours-kabul-airport/184975/</ref>

550 members and their families of the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), which runs the ''[[Voice of America]]'' and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty were abandoned. A group trying to get VOA staffers and other vulnerable people out of Afghanistan ran into a wall because the evacuees were unable to get into the airport. The group, which consists of humanitarian aid workers and former embassy, and [[U.S. Agency for International Development]] (USAID) officials, had two charter flights that can carry 340 people each.<ref>https://washingtonmonthly.com/2021/08/26/the-journalists-for-u-s-media-getting-left-behind-in-afghanistan/</ref>
