Biden perhaps forgot to vet any Afghan refugees

Nobody would claim that vetting is very effective and is time consuming, it's certainly better than not vetting foreign nationals who come into the United States.

While the Obama administration pretended to thoroughly vet Muslim refugees it brought into the country, the Biden administration isn't even pretending to do any vetting. 

Afghan refugees are moving through a pipeline from Muslim countries to the US faster than Brian Stelter grabbing seconds at an all-you-can-eat buffet. Their paperwork is scant but the time frame was quite narrow and the Biden administration didn't vet the information of the tens of thousands of Afghans nor did they have face-to-face interviews with them. Instead, the administration totally relied on criminal and terrorist databases to flag the bad actors.

The Afghans were screened via U.S. databases, and criminal background or terrorism affiliations in Afghanistan, but the needed information usually didn't come up when cross-checked due to sparsity of information.

So it was only those flagged in the system who were later vetted, while the large majority of the 82,000 were not.

Thus, the only people to be vetted were those flagged in the database while everyone else and their pet lizards were waved through.
