Since the Taliban took over Afghanistan, the United States has sent $3.8 billion to the rogue nation.

President Trump has frozen most U.S. aid to Afghanistan, but $120 million was still dispatched this quarter. And, more problematically, the UN continues to send billions in American hundred dollar bills to ‘capitalize’ the Taliban’s bank.
NOTE: The Taliban have been auctioning off this money in currency auctions to keep the Afghan currency high against the dollar. This money, along with billions in seized weapons provided by the United States to the former Afghan government, has allowed the Taliban to finance Al Qaeda’s terrorist operations.
Another $3.5 billion in funds stolen by The Obiden Regime from 9/11 survivors continues to be held in the Afghan Fund that will potentially also be used to capitalize the Taliban’s bank. This will be addressed in greater detail below.
These shocking events, first reported by the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s investigative journalism in the aftermath of The Obiden Regime’s panicked retreat, have been confirmed yet again by the Afghan war government watchdog known as the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) in its latest report on Afghanistan.
The USAID shutdown has kept billions of dollars in taxpayer money from continuing to go to Taliban controlled territories, but the UN and its nonprofits, some of which receive massive amounts of taxpayer funding for other projects, continue to feed a fortune into Afghanistan.
The UN’s World Food Programme, headed by Cindy McCain, after lying about a famine in Gaza to benefit the Hamas Islamic terrorist group, has taken to claiming millions will die unless we continue funding its operations in Afghanistan.
The WFP claimed President Trump’s aid pause:
[C]ould amount to a death sentence for millions of people facing extreme hunger and starvation.
Similar false claims were made on behalf of the Houthi terrorists in Yemen and the Hamas terrorists in Gaza.
In both cases there was no actual famine and the terrorist groups were seizing and profiting from foreign aid while using the false claims of famine to deter counterterrorist operations by the Saudis and Israel.
And while most U.S. direct funds have been currently cut off, the American University of Afghanistan continues to spend money even though it is no longer in Afghanistan. Instead, it operates in the Islamic terrorist state of Qatar, an ally of the Taliban, Hamas, and the Muslim Brotherhood, and taxpayers continue to subsidize Afghan students in Qatar and Turkey.
But ending U.S. foreign aid to the Taliban terrorist state is only the beginning. SIGAR quotes UN reports confirming:
[The] Taliban utilized al Qaeda [and other Islamic terrorist groups] in operations against armed anti-Taliban opposition groups [and] Al Qaeda affiliates in Afghanistan [still] continued to have access to weapons seized from the former Afghan National Army [and an Al Qaeda affiliate had gotten its hands on BGM-71 TOW missiles].
Furthermore:
[T]he Taliban army chief of staff said the regime planned to provide the army with more advanced weapons and equipment, but did not specify from where or whom it could come.
The Taliban, in violation of its promises in the Doha accords in Qatar, from which it has since withdrawn, is not only harboring, but arming and equipping Al Qaeda.
That was the cause of September 11 and our subsequent intervention in Afghanistan.
When humanitarian aid has been used to cover printing money on behalf of the Taliban and shipping money to the Taliban, the term has become a meaningless excuse for propping up an Islamic terrorist state sponsor of Al Qaeda.
While the United States need not directly go to war with the Taliban over it, we should at the very least block all further money from organizations that benefit from our funding, including the UN, from going to Afghanistan, and should treat any money being directed to Afghanistan, especially in U.S. dollars as a violation of the laws banning the funding of terrorism even if that money is supposedly being used for humanitarian aid.
The UN should be blocked from accessing further dollars from the Federal Reserve Bank in New York to ship to Afghanistan. According to SIGAR:
[T]he World Bank also reported that the Taliban’s currency rose sharply around Islamic holidays due to the increased inflows of U.S. dollars during Ramadan and Eid, [which] boosted the supply of U.S. dollars and increased the demand for local currency.
This is likely due to Afghan ‘refugees’ in the United States contriving to send money home. The Trump administration has taken the right course in seeking to remove the over 100,000 Afghan ‘refugees’ illegally imported by The Obiden Regime during his retreat.
Recent outbreaks of Afghan violence in the United States with several stabbing incidents in Michigan, Texas, and even Pennsylvania Dutch Country make their removal more urgent.
Anyone residing in the United States directing money to Afghanistan through any means should be prosecuted, deported if they are not a citizen, and denaturalized and deported if they are.
Finally, President Trump can remedy one of the most outrageous historic injustices imaginable by The Obiden Regime which fought 9/11 victims in court and seized $3.5 billion that should have gone to compensate the families of victims and placed it in an ‘Afghan Fund’ for the benefit of the murderous Islamic regime that harbored the killers of their families.
In 2022, Freedom Center Investigates exclusively reported:
[The Obiden Regime] had seized $3.5 billion in wealth now owned by the Taliban in the United States to keep it from being awarded in a judgement to 9/11 family members. The money has now appreciated to nearly $4 billion and should be brought back to the U.S. and used to benefit Americans. Not terrorists.
Biden—although not a legitimately elected president of the United States—was the first to skip a 9/11 commemoration. He—no doubt all via Obama’s initiative—was uniquely friendly to Islamic terrorists and uniquely hostile to the memory of the September 11 attacks, and focused on closing Gitmo, freeing many Al Qaeda terrorists including an alternate 9/11 hijacker, an Al Qaeda ally who plotted to smuggle nukes into the country, and many other major terrorists.
The billions sent to Afghanistan under Obiden were a betrayal. While most of the money—like most of the weapons left behind—cannot be recovered, the Afghan Fund money can.
The Trump administration did the right thing by ending most of the flow of our money to the Taliban. SIGAR’s audit found that nearly half of the “implementing partners” distributing “aid” in Afghanistan had signed memorandums of understanding with the Taliban. Outrageously, the State Department allowed this to go on and the audit found that “State is not required to review the MOUs that implementing partners sign with the Taliban.”
The humanitarian aid groups claiming everyone in Afghanistan will die unless we fund them have been in bed with terrorists. And all of this went on with the complicity of The Obiden Regime whose USAID staffers actively obstructed any investigations of their ties to terrorists. They can never be trusted again. Neither can any of the organizations that signed memorandums with the Taliban.
