Frustration is growing over America’s relentless funding of terrorism—and if you ask me, it ought to be the biggest dadgum story on the news.
A government watchdog organization recently released information that’s left me gobsmacked: Since 2021, the UN and a host of other groups have funneled a mind-blowing $3.8 billion U.S. dollars into Taliban-led Afghanistan.
Veterans are outraged, everyday Americans are furious, and I refuse to sit back and watch this happen—these terrorists don’t deserve another red cent.
That’s why I introduced the No Tax Dollars for the Taliban Act to slam the brakes on this insanity, and while it passed in the House, it’s now stuck in legislative limbo while Congress takes yet another vacation.
As I mentioned on my podcast, Tennessee Talks, it’s like these folks are allergic to work. We started August recess a week early, leaving critical legislation like this to gather dust.
Meanwhile, we’ve just hit the $35 trillion mark in America’s debt crisis—all thanks to irresponsible spending like this. Every dollar is borrowed, and every dollar we take limits Americans’ ability to earn a living and save for the future.
This isn’t just about passing a bill—it’s about restoring faith in our government by telling the world that America will no longer be an ATM for evil terrorists. And after all our veterans sacrificed over in Afghanistan, it’s the very least we can do to honor their service.
So, how do we untangle this mess? How do we pass meaningful legislation on time? The answer is clear as day: We need to elect more America-first Republicans. Our razor-thin majority isn’t cutting it. The Speaker is always on edge, wondering whether he’ll have the votes to push anything of substance through.
It’s time to get our values back on track in Washington. We can’t kick the can down the road as America bleeds money, putting our future on the line.
We need representatives who will fight tooth and nail to put an end to reckless spending and ensure that every dollar spent serves the interests of our constituents.
