SIGAR says the Biden administration’s refusal to cooperate with its investigation into the allocation of $1.1 billion in taxpayer funds since the Taliban regained power constitutes a "direct violation" of the watchdog group’s congressional mandate. The administration also is withholding evidence related to the collapse of the U.S.-backed Afghan government, as well as information about whether the State Department is complying with laws prohibiting the transfer of American funds to the Taliban. "No federal agency has challenged SIGAR’s authority to conduct oversight of such programs until now," the watchdog agency said.

The standoff is the latest controversy surrounding the Biden administration’s botched 2021 evacuation from Afghanistan, which left 13 Americans dead and thousands more stranded in the Taliban-controlled country. The administration also has stonewalled congressional investigations into the matter, including probes into its decision to abandon around $7 billion worth of advanced American military equipment inside Afghanistan.

Didn’t you hear? Democracy has been “saved” because people voted for Democrats in enough areas for them to retain control of the Senate and maybe the House. Nothing to see here.

Any and all Democrat corruption is “okay.”

Well that and two of the high profile politicians were extreme Racists, Fettermen chasing down a unarmed innocent black man with a shot gun, and Katie Hobbs firing a Black woman for being black.

Apparently, all you have to do to be forgiven if you are an anti black Racist, is to be a Democrat From LBJ to Joe Biden and his KKK friend Robert Byrd it's been happening forever.

Democrat voters don’t care what Biden does or doesn’t do.

So Biden gave the Taliban $1,100,000,000.00 AFTER the terror group took over Afghanistan? That what the article stated. From the original title and OP, the timing isn’t fully clear that this gift of U.S. tax dollars was just handed to known terrorists.

It’s too bad that Biden is stonewalling. Typical though for another democrat scandal.
