FOLLOW THE MONEY: Tracking Another $30 Million in U.S. Counterterrorism Funding to the Taliban As your Senators continue funding the Taliban, let's talk about a recent payment. First, in the interest of full disclosure, there are several different buckets of funding that ultimately benefit the Taliban. As most of you know, I have focused extensively on the counterterrorism (CT) funding. Why? Because that is where the lack of transparency becomes particularly important. CT funds are dark money. These payments are not publicly reported, meaning someone in Congress can look you in the eye, hold a press conference, and tell you they stopped the money going to the Taliban, knowing full well that this particular funding will never appear in the public reporting. What they seem to forget, however, is that there are two sides to every transaction. If the U.S. government refuses to disclose how much money it is delivering, you can simply work to document the transaction from the Taliban's side. Several years ago, they apparently thought we were too dumb to figure that out. Then, as more people began tracking the flights carrying payments from Sulaymaniyah, Iraq, to Kabul, Afghanistan, the deliveries were moved to Doha, Qatar. But late last month, we identified something interesting involving the counterterrorism funding. On Sunday, October 25, 2026, the U.S. delivered what appeared to be approximately $30 million to the Taliban. This time, however, the delivery did not take place in Doha. It took place in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It appears that at least the CIA and State Department played a role in this particular payment, although the Department of War is also involved in this counterterrorism funding. Was this an attempt to conceal the delivery from those of us tracking these transactions? I cannot say for certain. But if that was the objective, IT FAILED. And to add insult to injury, there is another important question: Who received the money? The payment was handed over to Mullah Abdul Haq Wasiq, the head of the Taliban's General Directorate of Intelligence (GDI). Wasiq is a former Guantanamo Bay detainee and one of the five Taliban prisoners released by the U.S. in 2014 in exchange for Bowe Bergdahl, whom I, and many others, consider a traitor. Let that sink in. These fools are paying off terrorists while both al-Qaeda and the Islamic State-Khorasan Province (ISKP) have grown to their strongest levels in Afghanistan ever in the last handful of years. The American people deserve a full accounting of every dollar delivered to the Taliban, regardless of which funding authority, government agency, or financial mechanism is used to move it. Congress should be demanding those answers, not hiding behind reporting requirements that allow certain payments to remain out of public view. And for every elected official who thinks they can keep their hands clean of this, understand that a percentage of this funding has been diverted to support al-Qaeda’s planned attacks on the U.S. homeland. There are plenty of us willing to testify about the delivery of these funds, including the monthly payments made to the sons of Osama bin Laden. You are done claiming ignorance about funding the next 9/11.

Rep Tim Burchett says he’s willing to lose his job to tell us the REAL REASON government officials are opposing Elon Musk and DOGE ā€œThey’re gonna push back because you’ve got Congressmen on both sides of the aisle. If they follow that paper trail, it's going to come back to them. You've got their wife and or girlfriend that works for some agency, quasi-agency or some business. This towns as crooked as a dogs legā€ ā€œI’ll get primaried for saying that but that’s the truth and we all know itā€ ā€œSomebody’s gonna straight it out, it looks like it’s gonna be Elon Muskā€

For everyone who has flagged this for me, yes, I’m aware. But I’m not a chaos agent, and I’m certainly not okay with persons who participate in secretly recording private conversations or turning them into public spectacles for clicks. Especially when there are statements in the conversation that don't accurately reflect the facts anyways. I have no interest in contributing to that kind of behavior, and I think people should seriously consider whether they want to encourage it. I genuinely wish Darrin all the best. And as for him calling me autistic, so what? I don’t consider that an insult. Being smart and aware isn’t a crime. There are far bigger things to worry about. Never waste your time on the noise as that’s when you miss what’s truly important.

The terrorists know these vulnerabilities, have tested them, and will exploit them further if we do not take fixing this seriously.
OIG: Failures in TSA’s Vetting of Airport Workers Allowed Uncleared Individuals Access to Secure Areas The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) did not adequately ensure that airport workers were fully vetted before obtaining badges to access secured areas, thereby allowing uncleared individuals to access areas where they could inflict harm. • TSA did not ensure airport operators provided complete and accurate information to conduct security threat assessments. Key biographical data [Redacted] were inconsistent in [Redacted] of 457 applicant records [Redacted] the OIG reviewed. TSA officials attributed discrepancies to errors that airport operators and their contractors made when entering and transmitting biographical data to TSA. • TSA did not ensure that airport operators refrained from issuing badges to workers before TSA completed the security threat assessments. From fiscal years 2022 through 2024, airport operators issued badges to [Redacted] workers whose security threat assessments were not yet complete and for whom TSA later conveyed ā€œDo Not Issueā€ notices. TSA did not discover the airport operators’ actions in a timely manner because it did not conduct inspections of airport operations (including the status of employee badges) and follow-up with airport operators to ensure badges were revoked. • TSA did not ensure airport operators enrolled workers in the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Rap Back Program for recurrent vetting. Rap Back enables a participating airport operator to receive ongoing status notifications of any subsequent criminal history information changes reported on enrolled individuals. The OIG found [Redacted] of 451 workers [Redacted] sampled were not enrolled in Rap Back. TSA officials stated that they do not have sufficient resources to review 100 percent of airport operators’ records for compliance with Rap Back enrollment requirements.

We go in clear eyed….
A variety of radio stations carry the contents of a letter written by a U.S. Marine stationed in northwest Afghanistan who goes by the name ā€œSaucy Jack.ā€ He reports that the area is full of scorpions, very cold, and he and his unit spend his days watching tunnel entrances waiting for Taliban to come out. He goes on to say that Afghanistan is not a country, but a network of warring tribes, and that the people love to fight and live for it. He says that the U.S. will never win a war here, they can’t fight here, and the situation is hopeless.

🚨ISIS TERRORIST SENTENCED🚨 A Idaho man was sentenced to 18 years in prison after being convicted of trying to support the terrorist group ISIS. Alexander Scott Mercurio planned to hit his father with a metal pipe, take his father’s guns, and carry out a mass attack on churches in Idaho in the name of ISIS. He also intended to use weapons covered in flames, explosives, knives, and a machete. When police searched his home, they found butane canisters, lighters, handcuffs, a knife, a machete, and several of his father’s firearms. Days before the planned attack, he stood in front of an ISIS flag while holding a knife and pledged his loyalty to the group. The FBI arrested him on April 6, 2024, one day before he planned to carry out the attack. Earlier, in 2023, he had also created an online collection of pro-ISIS materials to spread the group’s ideology.

Taliban’s ā€œAir Forceā€ didn’t buy airframes, but they did take the time to paint fake ones
Why invest in pilots when you can hire painters? The only air force where the aircraft never need fuel, maintenance or a runway. This is Bagram Air Base: 7 "fighter jets" on the ramp all 7 are painted.

The Kurds helped defeat ISIS, only for our own government to enable the release of more than 2,100 ISIS terrorists since 2025 and essentially tell the Kurds to get over it. Almost immediately after their release, some of these ISIS terrorists began moving toward the United States. So here's a question: What will our government's response be when an ISIS terrorist we previously captured in Syria makes it to American soil and kills Americans? Will anyone take responsibility then?
ā€žGet over itā€œ is the US government’s response to the question of how the US is going to safeguard minority & Kurdish rights.
