You're the one posting frantic clips. I am not emotional about this , just making reasonable predictions based on the extreme actions , both good and bad , that trump is taking. Extremism doesn't work well in our democratic republic..

Must be why USAID went away.

So you're ok sending $40 million dollars to the Taliban every ten days or so?

Every Arizona swing voter in our latest Engagious/Sago focus groups said they approve of President Trump's actions since taking office — and most also support Elon Musk's efforts to slash government.

Nope, the one who offered US taxpayer money to a foreign country to help him get elected sent his minions to stop an election.

You are very uniformed. The only aid given to Afghanistan was critical materials. ,tents , health supplies and high energy foods for people at risk in Afghanistan. It is / was being done as apart of the international coalition ( Campaign Against Terrorism ; A Coalition update -Assistance to Afghanistan. )

Well at least we aren't starving yet. If you can afford it.

40% of adult Americans are obese.

And if you are on SNAP you're 30% more likely to be obese that if you are not.

 

[Stann]

40% of adult Americans are obese.

And if you are on SNAP you're 30% more likely to be obese that if you are not.

Agreed , not much of a good deficiency crisis yet but the total opposite. Too rich a diet , too little activity. Too bad adults here don't have public health fitness centers like they do in Australia. They are too Americanized now and are also getting fatter too. But at least most still exercise as a part of their way of life from birth through old age. They have very few nursing homes which tells you just how healthy the society is.

Biden or Obama? Bush was also a corrupt member of the DC cabal, so maybe him?

Are you sure, Stann?

The United Nations has delivered more than $2.9 billion in cash to Afghanistan since the Taliban seized control, resulting in the flow of U.S. funds to the extremist group, according to a recent government report.

The U.N. deposits the cash into a private Afghan bank and disburses funds to the agency’s aid organizations and nonprofit humanitarian groups. But the money does not stop there, the report found. Some winds up at the central bank of Afghanistan, which is under the control of the Taliban. The group took over the country after the withdrawal of U.S. forces in August 2021.

“Most of the money that’s going in cash through the U.N. is ultimately coming from U.S. taxpayers,” John Sopko, the inspector general, said in an interview. “It’s going to a terrorist group. The Taliban are a bunch of terrorists.”

U.N. officials do not deny that the cash delivered to Afghanistan makes its way to the central bank. But they say there is no avoiding it since the Taliban control the country.
___________________
“This is unacceptable,” said Rep. Michael McCaul, the Texas Republican who chairs the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, in a statement. “The U.S. government must work harder to prevent the Taliban from benefiting from humanitarian aid.”

A spokesperson for the Afghan central bank did not return requests for comment.
___________________
Senior leaders of the Taliban control the central bank, which has no systems in place to prevent terrorism financing or money laundering, according to the inspector general’s report, which cites an analysis paid for by USAID. Officials at the development agency declined to release the study, describing it as a “confidential internal document.”

When money leaves the central bank, there’s yet another concern. Humanitarian organizations are sometimes forced to pay cash directly to the Taliban. Local Taliban leaders have demanded that the U.N. and aid groups hire its members and their relatives or prioritize treatment of widows and wounded militants, according to the inspector general.

U.N. Has Flown $2.9B in Cash to Afghanistan Since Taliban Seized Control

The U.S. State Department has previously said that no U.S. funds went to the militant group, but a new federal report indicates that some taxpayer money has ended up in the Taliban-controlled central bank of Afghanistan.

Your own article says the U.N. did this. And none of it was for the Taliban , but I he people of Afghanistan , who were facing starvation. Without US support many more of our former allies ( hopefully still ) would have starved. The Taliban have repeatedly featured trump's claim of financial assistance. Lol oks like you listened to another one of trump's many lies. Good luck with your bullshit. Peddle ot somewhere else.
