RT is very pro-Trump but it is a propaganda site, as are many US news outlets.RT News (RT.Com) - Bias and Credibility
QUESTIONABLE SOURCE A questionable source exhibits one or more of the following: extreme bias, consistent promotion of propaganda/conspiracies, poor or no
RT is a propaganda website put out by Putin and the Russian military. RT's goal is to harm America and America's allies.
It would appear on Fox if it could be spun into damaging Biden. They might try but Trump would need to take responsibility for developments over the 4 years of his term.Can you find the story on Fox News? Fox News has real reporters, real editors, etc.

Would the US government have been aware of the money going to the enemy? Or into the pockets of US military leaders?
I just thought it would be of interest to some on this forum.
No....this is deliberate.pknopp Sadly, this is just the latest example of how our "foreign aid" money goes to fill the pockets of corrupt foreign leaders or fund terrorism efforts. This is not a DEM or GOP problem. It is the failure of our government to demand accountability for how every dollar of our donated tax money is spent and has been going on for decades.
Interesting Surada, and helps explain what it's all about for the more challenged.Ghost soldiers - Wikipedia

Ghost soldiers or ghost battalions are names appearing on military rolls, but who are not actually in military service, generally in order to divert part of the soldiers' salaries to an influential local entity such as army officers or others.
Soldiers may equally benefit from the corruptionscheme by returning to their civilian occupation and routine while gaining marginal income. The practice, however, weakens the military and makes it susceptible to military offensives and major defeats when leaders ignore availabl…
No....this is deliberate.
Gen Miley told Trump before he left office that it was cheaper to leave all of those weapons behind.
Trump said he wanted every bullet back in the US so our enemies can't use them against us.
Miley disagreed....and carried out his ridiculous plan....$85 billion worth of it left behind.....as well had hundreds of American families left at the mercy of our enemies.

Trump was president when he signed away the country and he was president when they withdrew 90% of the troops but you keep on telling yerself he had not a damn thing to do with it.Well.....motherfucker.....Trump isn't president and hasn't been since you folks conducted your coup on Jan 6th....and Miley oversaw the pullout in Afghanistan in August.

Yeah.....sure......the problem is how you pull out.Fault? Pulling out of Afghanistan is the best thing this country has done in years.
Bullshit.Trump didn't take any weapons when he reduced troops from 13,000 to 2500.
Bullshit.
Every soldier had to take his own weapons with him on the plane. How do I know this?
I've redeployed to CONUS too many times to count.
I know how it works.
The only thing we left behind was our bullets and the vehicles that units that were re-leaving us needed.
But since there weren't going to be any follow-up units....they were supposed to pack everything up and ship it back stateside.
Every bit of sensitive equipment had to go with them back stateside and put back in the armory.Are there any OTHER kinds of weapons the soldiers didn't take home on the plane?
