A huge legislative effort has been underway, led by Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee. Finally, someone with a backbone, standing up to the RINOS and traitors in the House and Senate, sending American tax dollars to terrorist nations, and funding the Taliban. And to top it off, it's about $45 million a week, which is out of control on every level.
Today we saw who is behind our armed services, our American citizens and who's in it for the kickbacks.

Speaker 1 (00:04):
What's Up? And welcome. This is the Rogue Recap and
you are here with your host, Linda McLaughlin. She is pissed, off, outraged,
and has zero patience with what seems to be an
epidemic of entitlement and stupidity. Here we talk about all
the things the other shows just don't or won't touch.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
What's up guys here tonight, not on my normal microphone.
I hope you don't mind. I'm remote, but wanted to
get this show in because we have huge news that's
getting so little coverage, and that is our fight to
have the American government stop funding the Taliban. And if
you're like me, you're probably like, I didn't know we
(00:52):
were funding the Taliban. But there is an amazing congressman.
His name is timber Chetty's out of Tennessee, and he's
definitely been one of those people who it doesn't matter
how uncomfortable it is, it doesn't matter how difficult it
might be, he is going to tell you exactly what's
going on. And he is not a partisan hack either.
(01:14):
He is a conservative. He's part of the Freedom Caucus.
But he doesn't care if you're a conservative or Republican,
liberal Democrat, and none of that matters. If you're doing
the wrong thing, you better believe that Tim Berchet's going
to call you out. So a little bit about this
particular effort. Today, Tim pushed through and introduced a bill
(01:34):
that was dedicated to stopping our US tax dollars being
given to a group that still had regained control of
Afghanistan in twenty twenty one, when Joe Biden had done
that debacle level withdrawal, and so every single week since then,
he has been trying to get the Senate to pass
(01:56):
his bill, which is to recall that money and to
invested in Americans as opposed to giving people where all
they want to do is kill us, you know, any
kind of money from the US taxpayer, especially because we
lost so many men and women in combat that were
fighting for American freedoms, and now we're funding the families
(02:19):
of those who their fathers, their brothers fought in the
wars to kill ours. So it's really sort of so
it's so insane that it actually seems unreal. In my opinion,
it seems like this can't be true, but it is
and you know, while President Trump really has been incredibly
(02:41):
you know, critical of Joe Biden's withdrawal, you know, the
funding is still continuing. So it's like, okay, yeah, we
had this terrible withdrawal. All of these people died, we had,
you know, assets within Afghanistan that were helping our men
weren't even able to get them out. And they set
up this funding through the Biden administration that was supposed
(03:04):
to be quote unquote aid for Afghans that were remaining
in the country. But basically what happens now is it's
going right to the Taliban because they controlled the central bank,
they control everything, so that money isn't getting to anybody
who needs it in Afghanistan. That is going to fund
terrorism and anti American efforts because that's all they care about.
(03:29):
And we literally just this week on Monday, sent another
forty five million dollars. This this is so beyond the pale,
and you have people speaking out, we have people from
even within Afghanistan confirming absolutely. Burchet says that the State
Department is sent over five billion dollars to Afghanistan in
(03:52):
the last several years. So the regulations that he's trying
to impose upon Congress is to you know, because Congress
is power of the purse, is to say absolutely not,
these are terrorists. You're putting our American tax dollars into
the hands of terrorists, into the very people who want
to crush us. And some of the money in question
(04:15):
was approved by Congress going to these NGOs, which we
all know about NGOs now following USAID and DOGE and
the deep dive into that. But they're allocating money to
these NGOs and it's not going to the people. Again,
it's not going to the people. So timber Chet, God
bless him, he's like, enough with the NGOs, enough with
(04:37):
the misappropriation of funds. He said, why are we, as
taxpayers who lost our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan giving
money that is falling into the hands of the Taliban.
It does not make sense. And today it passed, so
timber Chet was able to get his bill through the House.
They need sixty votes to pass it in the Senate
(05:00):
and they've got this ridiculous inability to get it past.
One senator, Senator she he from Montana. Both he and
his wife served, and he gave this speech on the
floor today and I just thought it was so spot on.
We're going to play a little bit of audio today
because I want you guys to hear what's happening. And
I feel like this is one of the biggest issues
(05:20):
that's getting the least amount of coverage right now.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Most Americans probably find it somewhat surprising that as they
struggle with affordability, struggling to fill their gas tank or
pay their rent or ford their mortgage, that many of
their tax dollars, in fact, upwards of ten billion dollars
of their tax dollars are sent directly into the pockets
of foreign terrorist organizations, terrorist organizations that we spent thousands
of lives and decades fighting to protect our shores, to
(05:49):
include the lives of some of my friends. I spent
years of my life, as did my wife, spend years
of her life fighting these terrorist organizations, trying to keep
this country safe. And now we're told that our tax
dollars have an obligation to go into the pocket of
those organizations, to buy bullets, to build bombs, to coordinate
attacks that don't just kill Americans, they kill those who
(06:09):
share our values worldwide. And it's not just Westerners and
Americans who are killed by this. The Taliban systematically hunts
down those in Afghanistan with whom they disagree, those who
want to be free, those women and girls who saw
a brief period of freedom under our occupation there, and
now they are once again placed under the yoke of
terrible sexism, of not even fascism, but outright terror. And
(06:32):
it isn't just Afghanistan. This extends across the globe. This
terrorist financing networks is not just guys in mountain caves
collecting dollar bills. This is a sophisticated global finance network
that spans the entire world. The Iranian regime, although not
directly connected in many ways to this, is absolutely directly
(06:53):
connected to the international flow of terrorist funds through sophisticated
real estate transaction, cryptocurrency, oil smuggling, hiracy, kidnapping, terrorism. It
is unthinkable that we would intentionally and knowingly hand our
taxpayer dollars to organizations that actively kill Americans and attempt
to destroy our values every single day. I think it
(07:13):
should be a bipartisan American issue for us to finally
put an end to this ridiculous practice that is actively
costing us lives and precious freedom. Capital around the world.
I hope that we pass this act. They urge a
yes vote, and I urge it quickly.
Speaker 4 (07:28):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
So one of the things that timber Chet put out
and that I thought was really insightful is there's a
gentleman who is working with our GOP.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
And this is.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
A scary thing. Right. People are staffers and they sort
of worm their way into whatever committee and focus that
they can get into because they don't really care about
how they get in. They just want to get in.
And so if they can do that, then they would
be able to do the work that they want to
do behind the scenes and hurt the people that they
(08:09):
want to hurt without anybody being able to say anything.
And this particular individual is somebody that goes by the
name of Tom West. And Tom West was a Senate
staffer who has had his security clearance actually denied by
DNI Director Tulsey Gabberd because of his relationship with the Taliban,
(08:31):
because the previous role he had under Biden was Special
Representative for Afghanistan and Deputy Assistant Secretary to the Bureau
of South and Central Asian Affairs. Let me repeat the
guy who is working with our Senate. Gop worked under
(08:52):
Biden as the Special rep for Afghanistan and now he's
helping them with the legislation to stop funding to Afghanistan.
Just think about that for a minute. How corrupt that is.
So Burchette really kind of laid it on the line.
I thought it was perfect. I'll let you guys hear
what he had to say.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Hey, everybody, tim Berts, as you know, as I've been
championing the cause to quit paying the dead gum Taliban
forty million or forty five million, whatever is a week
we give it them over over five billion dollars total
since the Biden administration. Every week, every week we can't
stop the bill. We can't when we can't get the
bill passed in the Senate. It's taking me over a
(09:34):
year to get it out of dadgam House, and we
got it fell over in the Senate. Who was a staffer,
but he was a former I believe, ambassador to Afghanistan
and his name is what Tom West and apparently our
good friend Tulsea Gabbard and the Trump administration denied him
(09:56):
his security clearance because of his alleged the relationship with
the Taliban, and so I suspect that's what's going on
in the Senate. That's why they're they're stopping the bill.
And people say, well, y'all are in the majority, why
don't you you just act like it. Well, you've got
to have sixty votes over there to pass a bill
of this significance. And that's the hold up. And uh,
(10:18):
we're going to continue to see this kind of nonsense
until the country wakes up. And I don't care what
party you're in, we shouldn't be paying these people any money.
They will hate us for free. All they're going to
do is use that money to come at us in
a different area and kill Americans and kill our allies.
That gummit, this is what's going on. I'm letting you
know about it. You can make the call, call your senator,
(10:41):
if you've got a Democrat senator. It does. This is
beyond that. This is this is actual, in my opinion, corruption.
We know this money flows around, we know you know
Elon Musk told us about it flowing into dark money campaigns.
And I think some of this money I'm not sure
if this is or some of the other, but surely
it's blowing back into the pockets of politicians in Washington,
(11:03):
and if it's a Republican, I hope they haul him
out of here and changed, and a Democrat as well,
because I don't care. I'm sick of it. We're thirty
eight trillion dollars in debt and we're sending over forty
million dollars a week to the Taliban and the United
States Congress doesn't have the guts to stop it. That's pathetic.
(11:23):
Let's fix it, thank you all.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I mean what, that guy's a hero.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
If you don't know who timber Chad is yet find out,
because he's worth your time. I've talked to him, I've
had him on a couple other shows that I work on,
and he is a stalwart. What you see is what
you get. He's not putting on airs. He's not there
to impress you. He's there to be fair to Americans,
be fair to all Americans. And as you just heard
(11:51):
him say there, he doesn't care who's lying and who's
making the mistakes. He just wants to fixed. I don't
think I've heard that in a really long time where
somebody actually meant it. There's another person. Congressman's got Perry
And let me just be clear before I go to
him real quick. This has been going on now for
the past four years, because remember we've got Biden in
(12:14):
there since twenty twenty one, and that's when all these
payments started. I'm sure that we had many other payments
under Obama and Hillary and the like. Because to Representative
Britchett's point, there's no doubt that people are getting kickbacks.
They're not doing this because they're worried about Afghani women
and children. That's a load of shit. They could give
(12:35):
a rip about that. What they care about is how
they can look like they're doing something good and somehow
acquiesced the system enough to get the money back to themselves.
That's where we're living. That's how the average senator and
congressman is operating. And you look at somebody like, you know,
Senator Sihi from Montana. You know he's young, he's got
(12:58):
young kids, his wife has served. And then you look
at these other senators who are voting to stop us
from stopping the money from going to the Taliban, and
they're eighty years old. And in my head, I say
to myself, I don't have an issue with you working,
but I do have an issue with you voting with
(13:20):
our dollars for a world that you won't live in.
That'll be the world that we live in, that our
kids live in and their kids live in. So instead
of voting for your kickback, maybe vote for your grandchild's future,
because that's really where they're at. I mean, some of
these guys are between the ages of seventy nine and
eighty four. So these are all guys that have lived
(13:41):
their life. They've made careers out of being a politician
or as they call them, you know, on the hill careers.
This is what they do. They've never had a regular
job like you and me, so they're used to working
their one hundred and fifty days a year and they
want to get the kickbacks all day long because they've
been doing it for forty years now. We have people
that are coming in and saying, hmm, that's weird. Why
(14:02):
are you sending forty million dollars a week to a
terrorist country when we're thirty eight trillion dollars in debt?
That seems odd. Why shouldn't we ask the tough questions?
And they don't have the answers because nobody's ever asked
them before. Scott Perry from Pennsylvania, another member of the
Freedom Caucus. Great human being. This is him back in April.
(14:23):
I think it was talking about this very issue and
asking the questions in a congressional hearing.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
I don't know what we think we're going to change
in Afghanistan. We lost twenty two thousand, lost or wounded
twenty two thousand, five hundred Americans in Afghanistan over the
course of our term there in the war, spending over
two trillion dollars. We're just going to keep on spending
because somehow we think it's going to get better. And
(14:52):
if you're wondering, who's in charge of Afghanistan getting the money?
And that money I just mentioned the six hundred and
ninety seven a million is on top of in his
addition to the weekly to every ten day shipments in
cash of forty to eighty million dollars. Afghanistan is ruled
(15:12):
by folks named Sarah Judenhikhani ha Hakani network mean anything
to anybody in the room. How about Abdullah bin Laden
who gets some of that money? Does that name ring
a bell to anybody in the room? Because your money,
your money. Six hundred and ninety seven million dollars annually,
(15:33):
plus the shipments of cash funds madrasas isis al Qaeda,
Boko haram isis Corazon terrorist training camps. That's what it's funding.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
That's what it's funding. Scott Perry laid it on the line.
He's explaining, there is no money coming from NGOs, coming
from our government that is reaching these women and children
in need. That's utter nonsense. It's not effective. What we're
doing doesn't work. So if we know it doesn't work,
and we're sending forty million dollars to the Taliban, and
(16:08):
I keep saying that over and over again in this
in this podcast because it's so crazy and I want
to drill it home. Think about that, this is a
nation who killed your brothers, your fathers, your cousins, your friends,
your husbands, your uncles. Think about it, your sisters, your mothers,
your aunts. They're all in vain if we do not
(16:33):
protect their memory and prevent it from happening to other people.
We can't ask our kids to enlist in the military
if we're going to fund the very people that want
to kill them. I can't even begin to convey to
my own family what is happening, because it doesn't seem real,
(16:57):
and it's not getting the attention that it deserves, warrants,
or needs on mainstream media and even on conservative media.
And I get it. There's a lot of news going on.
It's that time of year where people are sort of
half in, half out of the news and politics. And
I respect it because it's supposed to be a nice
time in the year where you can be with your family.
But this is too important, and I feel grateful that
(17:18):
we have the Sheehe's and the Burchettes and the Perrys
who actually care enough to stick around and put in
the time in the right boat so that we can
protect our nation. There's another woman who's been on the
Sean Ryan Show a lot. And if you don't know
who Sean Ryan is, he's got a pretty popular podcast
and he talks about all sort of national interests and
deep state and threats to the homeland type stuff. And
(17:42):
Sarah Adams is someone that he's had on the show
quite a bit, and she's pretty badass. I mean I've
watched her shows. I've seen her as a guest on
many shows, and just a pretty interesting woman. Former CIA
operative herself, and she was on with Sean Ryan episode one,
one six for those of you who want to know more.
(18:04):
And she was explaining that it's just so much worse
because she believes it's even more than forty million a week.
She's saying it committing. We're from forty to eighty seven million.
And she said, essentially, it's actually like a stipend to
the families who actually killed our young men and women.
And we're paying those those Taliban families because you know,
(18:27):
they're loved one martyred out and died, so now we
give them payment so that they have something to live on.
So we've got homeless veterans in the street, we've got
people with PTSD, we've got tons of issues at the VA,
and we're worried about folks in Afghanistan as opposed to
our own. People. Take a listen to her. She's she's pretty,
(18:48):
she's pretty, incredible, very very well versed on.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
Forty million a week that comes on the airplane and
comes into Afghanistan. The amount of money on the plane
weekly is forty three million to eighty seven million. But
one thing I want Americans to understand is in that
bucket of the forty million we send each week, we
are paying basically welfare too. The Taliban martyrs family. So
(19:12):
every Taliban member who died during the war with US,
the US government is paying them a stipend the family.
So our family is of Americans who died, there aren't
getting squat. But we are paying Taliban families for basically
dying while attacking us. We're funding that.
Speaker 6 (19:31):
This is just enraging.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
And you know, I asked a couple of people that
question straight out, like do you not think this is
not ethically corrected? Actually one person gave me an answer
of well, it'll stop them from joining isis? I'm like,
the Taliban.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Guys already dead.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
They give you these bullshit excuses as to why they're
funding our enemies and not paying attention to the fucking money.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Spot on timber Chet's bill was no tax dollars for terrorists.
That was the act that he passed in June. Now
that bill is in the Senate and we're just asking
the Senate to do the same thing. We're begging them. Actually,
we want them to do the right thing, to stand
by the American people, to keep the money at home.
(20:15):
Forty million dollars a week is insane, and it could
help so many people here, and they need our help
more than ever. And I have no idea why on
God's green earth we wouldn't give it to them. Because
all of them were willing to pay the oldtimate sacrifice
and put their lives down for us when they went
over to Afghanistan to defend our freedoms. I have no
(20:36):
idea why we would reward the terrorists for attacking our
own people. And I stand behind timber Chett. I stand
behind Senator Shihia Montana and Scott Perry and anybody else
who's on board for the No Tax Dollars for Terrorrists Acts.
This is Lynda McLaughlin. You are listening to the rogue recap.
I can't thank you enough for being here tonight, and please,
(20:58):
if you want to get involved, call yourself, call your congressman.
Find out more about this bill. Again. It's No Tax
Dollars for Terrorists Acts, and it's Hr. Two sixty. It
already passed the House. But if you want to read
the bill, see what's in it, understand it better. That's
the way to do it again, follow us like us.
We so appreciate you being here and we'll see you tomorrow.
(21:20):
Good Night, everybody,

name of Tom West. And Tom West was a Senate
staffer who has had his security clearance actually denied by
DNI Director Tulsey Gabberd because of his relationship with the Taliban,
(08:31):
because the previous role he had under Biden was Special
Representative for Afghanistan and Deputy Assistant Secretary to the Bureau
of South and Central Asian Affairs. Let me repeat the
guy who is working with our Senate. Gop worked under
(08:52):
Biden as the Special rep for Afghanistan and now he's
helping them with the legislation to stop funding to Afghanistan.
Just think about that for a minute. How corrupt that is.
So Burchette really kind of laid it on the line.
I thought it was perfect. I'll let you guys hear
what he had to say.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Hey, everybody, tim Berts, as you know, as I've been
championing the cause to quit paying the dead gum Taliban
forty million or forty five million, whatever is a week
we give it them over over five billion dollars total
since the Biden administration. Every week, every week we can't
stop the bill. We can't when we can't get the
bill passed in the Senate. It's taking me over a
(09:34):
year to get it out of dadgam House, and we
got it fell over in the Senate. Who was a staffer,
but he was a former I believe, ambassador to Afghanistan
and his name is what Tom West and apparently our
good friend Tulsea Gabbard and the Trump administration denied him
(09:56):
his security clearance because of his alleged the relationship with
the Taliban, and so I suspect that's what's going on
in the Senate. That's why they're they're stopping the bill.
And people say, well, y'all are in the majority, why
don't you you just act like it. Well, you've got
to have sixty votes over there to pass a bill
of this significance. And that's the hold up. And uh,
(10:18):
we're going to continue to see this kind of nonsense
until the country wakes up. And I don't care what
party you're in, we shouldn't be paying these people any money.
They will hate us for free. All they're going to
do is use that money to come at us in
a different area and kill Americans and kill our allies.
That gummit, this is what's going on. I'm letting you
know about it. You can make the call, call your senator,
(10:41):
if you've got a Democrat senator. It does. This is
beyond that. This is this is actual, in my opinion, corruption.
We know this money flows around, we know you know
Elon Musk told us about it flowing into dark money campaigns.
And I think some of this money I'm not sure
if this is or some of the other, but surely
it's blowing back into the pockets of politicians in Washington,
(11:03):
and if it's a Republican, I hope they haul him
out of here and changed, and a Democrat as well,
because I don't care. I'm sick of it. We're thirty
eight trillion dollars in debt and we're sending over forty
million dollars a week to the Taliban and the United
States Congress doesn't have the guts to stop it. That's pathetic.
(11:23):
Let's fix it, thank you all.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
I mean what, that guy's a hero.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
If you don't know who timber Chad is yet find out,
because he's worth your time. I've talked to him, I've
had him on a couple other shows that I work on,
and he is a stalwart. What you see is what
you get. He's not putting on airs. He's not there
to impress you. He's there to be fair to Americans,
be fair to all Americans. And as you just heard
(11:51):
him say there, he doesn't care who's lying and who's
making the mistakes. He just wants to fixed. I don't
think I've heard that in a really long time where
somebody actually meant it. There's another person. Congressman's got Perry
And let me just be clear before I go to
him real quick. This has been going on now for
the past four years, because remember we've got Biden in
(12:14):
there since twenty twenty one, and that's when all these
payments started. I'm sure that we had many other payments
under Obama and Hillary and the like. Because to Representative
Britchett's point, there's no doubt that people are getting kickbacks.
They're not doing this because they're worried about Afghani women
and children. That's a load of shit. They could give
(12:35):
a rip about that. What they care about is how
they can look like they're doing something good and somehow
acquiesced the system enough to get the money back to themselves.
That's where we're living. That's how the average senator and
congressman is operating. And you look at somebody like, you know,
Senator Sihi from Montana. You know he's young, he's got
(12:58):
young kids, his wife has served. And then you look
at these other senators who are voting to stop us
from stopping the money from going to the Taliban, and
they're eighty years old. And in my head, I say
to myself, I don't have an issue with you working,
but I do have an issue with you voting with
(13:20):
our dollars for a world that you won't live in.
That'll be the world that we live in, that our
kids live in and their kids live in. So instead
of voting for your kickback, maybe vote for your grandchild's future,
because that's really where they're at. I mean, some of
these guys are between the ages of seventy nine and
eighty four. So these are all guys that have lived
(13:41):
their life. They've made careers out of being a politician
or as they call them, you know, on the hill careers.
This is what they do. They've never had a regular
job like you and me, so they're used to working
their one hundred and fifty days a year and they
want to get the kickbacks all day long because they've
been doing it for forty years now. We have people
that are coming in and saying, hmm, that's weird. Why
(14:02):
are you sending forty million dollars a week to a
terrorist country when we're thirty eight trillion dollars in debt?
That seems odd. Why shouldn't we ask the tough questions?
And they don't have the answers because nobody's ever asked
them before. Scott Perry from Pennsylvania, another member of the
Freedom Caucus. Great human being. This is him back in April.
(14:23):
I think it was talking about this very issue and
asking the questions in a congressional hearing.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
I don't know what we think we're going to change
in Afghanistan. We lost twenty two thousand, lost or wounded
twenty two thousand, five hundred Americans in Afghanistan over the
course of our term there in the war, spending over
two trillion dollars. We're just going to keep on spending
because somehow we think it's going to get better. And
(14:52):
if you're wondering, who's in charge of Afghanistan getting the money?
And that money I just mentioned the six hundred and
ninety seven a million is on top of in his
addition to the weekly to every ten day shipments in
cash of forty to eighty million dollars. Afghanistan is ruled
(15:12):
by folks named Sarah Judenhikhani ha Hakani network mean anything
to anybody in the room. How about Abdullah bin Laden
who gets some of that money? Does that name ring
a bell to anybody in the room? Because your money,
your money. Six hundred and ninety seven million dollars annually,
(15:33):
plus the shipments of cash funds madrasas isis al Qaeda,
Boko haram isis Corazon terrorist training camps. That's what it's funding.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
That's what it's funding. Scott Perry laid it on the line.
He's explaining, there is no money coming from NGOs, coming
from our government that is reaching these women and children
in need. That's utter nonsense. It's not effective. What we're
doing doesn't work. So if we know it doesn't work,
and we're sending forty million dollars to the Taliban, and
(16:08):
I keep saying that over and over again in this
in this podcast because it's so crazy and I want
to drill it home. Think about that, this is a
nation who killed your brothers, your fathers, your cousins, your friends,
your husbands, your uncles. Think about it, your sisters, your mothers,
your aunts. They're all in vain if we do not
(16:33):
protect their memory and prevent it from happening to other people.
We can't ask our kids to enlist in the military
if we're going to fund the very people that want
to kill them. I can't even begin to convey to
my own family what is happening, because it doesn't seem real,
(16:57):
and it's not getting the attention that it deserves, warrants,
or needs on mainstream media and even on conservative media.
And I get it. There's a lot of news going on.
It's that time of year where people are sort of
half in, half out of the news and politics. And
I respect it because it's supposed to be a nice
time in the year where you can be with your family.
But this is too important, and I feel grateful that
(17:18):
we have the Sheehe's and the Burchettes and the Perrys
who actually care enough to stick around and put in
the time in the right boat so that we can
protect our nation. There's another woman who's been on the
Sean Ryan Show a lot. And if you don't know
who Sean Ryan is, he's got a pretty popular podcast
and he talks about all sort of national interests and
deep state and threats to the homeland type stuff. And
(17:42):
Sarah Adams is someone that he's had on the show
quite a bit, and she's pretty badass. I mean I've
watched her shows. I've seen her as a guest on
many shows, and just a pretty interesting woman. Former CIA
operative herself, and she was on with Sean Ryan episode one,
one six for those of you who want to know more.
(18:04):
And she was explaining that it's just so much worse
because she believes it's even more than forty million a week.
She's saying it committing. We're from forty to eighty seven million.
And she said, essentially, it's actually like a stipend to
the families who actually killed our young men and women.
And we're paying those those Taliban families because you know,
(18:27):
they're loved one martyred out and died, so now we
give them payment so that they have something to live on.
So we've got homeless veterans in the street, we've got
people with PTSD, we've got tons of issues at the VA,
and we're worried about folks in Afghanistan as opposed to
our own. People. Take a listen to her. She's she's pretty,
(18:48):
she's pretty, incredible, very very well versed on.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
Forty million a week that comes on the airplane and
comes into Afghanistan. The amount of money on the plane
weekly is forty three million to eighty seven million. But
one thing I want Americans to understand is in that
bucket of the forty million we send each week, we
are paying basically welfare too. The Taliban martyrs family. So
(19:12):
every Taliban member who died during the war with US,
the US government is paying them a stipend the family.
So our family is of Americans who died, there aren't
getting squat. But we are paying Taliban families for basically
dying while attacking us. We're funding that.
Speaker 6 (19:31):
This is just enraging.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
And you know, I asked a couple of people that
question straight out, like do you not think this is
not ethically corrected? Actually one person gave me an answer
of well, it'll stop them from joining isis? I'm like,
the Taliban.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Guys already dead.
Speaker 5 (19:43):
They give you these bullshit excuses as to why they're
funding our enemies and not paying attention to the fucking money.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Spot on timber Chet's bill was no tax dollars for terrorists.
That was the act that he passed in June. Now
that bill is in the Senate and we're just asking
the Senate to do the same thing. We're begging them. Actually,
we want them to do the right thing, to stand
by the American people, to keep the money at home.
(20:15):
Forty million dollars a week is insane, and it could
help so many people here, and they need our help
more than ever. And I have no idea why on
God's green earth we wouldn't give it to them. Because
all of them were willing to pay the oldtimate sacrifice
and put their lives down for us when they went
over to Afghanistan to defend our freedoms. I have no
(20:36):
idea why we would reward the terrorists for attacking our
own people. And I stand behind timber Chett. I stand
behind Senator Shihia Montana and Scott Perry and anybody else
who's on board for the No Tax Dollars for Terrorrists Acts.
This is Lynda McLaughlin. You are listening to the rogue recap.
I can't thank you enough for being here tonight, and please,
(20:58):
if you want to get involved, call yourself, call your congressman.
Find out more about this bill. Again. It's No Tax
Dollars for Terrorists Acts, and it's Hr. Two sixty. It
already passed the House. But if you want to read
the bill, see what's in it, understand it better. That's
the way to do it again, follow us like us.
We so appreciate you being here and we'll see you tomorrow.
