Trump admin sending Taliban $45M sparks Republican backlash
The funding was reportedly sent in cash on Monday, despite ongoing concerns about the Taliban in Afghanistan.
Republicans are calling out the Trump administration after $45 million was reportedly sent to the Taliban in Afghanistan by the Department of State on Monday.
Among those reacting to the reports was Tennessee Representative Tim Burchett, who has introduced a bill aimed at stopping tax dollars from being given to the group that regained control of Afghanistan in 2021.
"Every week," Burchett posted on X in response to the reporting. "Pass my Bill Senate!"
