And they are happy and smiling about the mistake? Did you? say they want another four years?
I don’t really think in my heart that it was a mistake – since BIDEN/HARRIS/OBAMA/PELOSI are backing HAMAS.
When they left Afghanistan they left EVERYTHING – just walked out and left the whole ball of wax, plus people.

U.S. governmemt mistakenly sends $293 million to Taliban: what led to the goof-up?
New Delhi: A recent report from the US Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) revealed a a major goof-up with US aid in Afghanistan. The report indicated that since President Joe Biden’s withdrawal of US troops in 2021, the US State Department might have inadvertently directed at least $293 million to the Taliban.
The SIGAR report exposed major goof-up in the US Department of State’s compliance with counterterrorism vetting requirements for its aid programmes in Afghanistan. The audit, covering the period from March 1, 2022, to November 30, 2022, scrutinized five State bureaus managing active awards in the region: Political-Military Affairs (PM/WRA), Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), South and Central Asian Affairs (SCA/PPD), Democracy, Human Rights, and Labour (DRL), and International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL).
According to SIGAR, PM/WRA, PRM, and SCA/PPD met the requirements set out in the Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM) and other counterterrorism vetting guidelines. These bureaus provided thorough risk assessments and complete documentation, demonstrating adherence to State’s vetting protocols.
In contrast, DRL and INL faced serious issues with their documentation. DRL was able to provide adequate vetting documentation for only three out of seven awards, leaving four awards unverified. Similarly, INL presented proper documentation for just three of 22 awards. This lack of adequate records means SIGAR could not confirm whether these bureaus complied with State’s vetting requirements for the majority of their programmes.

“State officials acknowledged that not all bureaus complied with document retention requirements,” the SIGAR report said.
The audit highlights a critical failure in meeting federal and internal documentation standards, jeopardising oversight and increasing risks of misuse. Specifically, State was unable to confirm compliance for awards totalling at least $293 million. This raises concerns that funds might be inadvertently channelled to organisations linked to the Taliban.
This $239 million figure is different from $7 billion in military equipment, such as Humvees and Black Hawk helicopters, left behind by US forces, which is now likely in the possession of the Taliban.
SIGAR had called on the Secretary of State to take immediate corrective action to ensure full adherence to vetting and documentation requirements. State officials have acknowledged these shortcomings and pledged to address the issues to enhance compliance and safeguard taxpayer funds.
