Congressman Burchett Urges Trump to Halt $40 Million Weekly U.S. Aid to Taliban
Jan 6, 2025, 09:28 PM
Congressman Tim Burchett has urged President-elect Donald Trump to stop U.S. foreign aid that he alleges is being funneled to the Taliban. In a formal letter to Trump, Burchett expressed 'strong concerns' about the use of taxpayer dollars to support what he referred to as 'terrorists.' He specifically highlighted that the U.S. is currently providing the Taliban with $40 million per week, a figure he described as a 'slap in the face' to those who have served the country. Burchett's call to action aims to prevent the transfer of financial resources to the Taliban, emphasizing the need for the incoming administration to address this issue.
