Just a little of the substance and context provided by your referenced article. Kash Patel stated:
"We handed our entire plan to the incoming Biden administration during the lengthy transition. The new team simply wasn't interested.
Everything changed when the new commander in chief declared that US forces would leave Afghanistan by Sept. 11, 2021, pushing back the Trump administration's timetable by four months. Crucially, he didn't condition the withdrawal on continued adherence to the agreed-upon stipulations. It would be an unconditional pullout with an arbitrary date based on pure symbolism - and set in stone.
At that point, the Taliban sat back and waited for the date to draw near, then launched a countrywide offensive, knowing they had no reason to fear any reprisals from this administration. The ongoing chaos - not least the stranding of US personnel and allies - was the natural result of the Biden administration's decision to eschew a conditions-based plan."
