As The Gateway Pundit previously reported – Joe Biden supplied the Taliban terrorist organization and their Islamist accomplices with billions of dollars worth of US weapons, armed vehicles, helicopters, ammunition, and piles of cash after Biden bungled his withdrawal from the country.
Rather than destroying the equipment before leaving the country, Joe Biden surrendered billions of dollars worth of US military equipment to the Taliban.
In fact, Joe Biden left 300 times more guns than those passed to the Mexican cartels in Obama’s Fast and Furious program.
The Taliban later released video of the weapons Joe Biden left behind and a room full of stacks of $100 bills Joe left for good measure.
The Taliban posted videos of pallets of weapons and stacks of $100 bills they had seized.
Here is a more complete list of US-supplied and left-behind equipment now controlled by Taliban:

But that was not enough.
It is as if we lost the war and now we’re paying reparations to the terrorists. You just can’t make this up!
In 2023, two years after Joe Biden’s famous surrender, the Taliban started posting videos of the fields of military vehicles the US left behind for the Taliban.
The Taliban also claimed the Abu Dujana brigade of the Al-Badr Corps had already repaired over 300 military vehicles and the vehicles are now ready for use.
And don’t forget the room full of $100 bills Joe Biden left the Taliban for good measure.
Earlier this week President Trump requested that the Taliban return the billions in US military equipment Joe Biden left behind in Afghanistan.
The Taliban declined the request, via ESSANEWS.
The Taliban do not intend to return the military equipment that remained in Afghanistan after the withdrawal of American troops. Donald Trump’s demand faced resistance, and recovering the weapons could be a significant challenge for the United States.
After the withdrawal of American troops in 2021, substantial armament remained in Afghanistan, including about 1,000 vehicles and artillery pieces, as well as an unspecified number of aircraft units.
Donald Trump has repeatedly called for the return of this equipment, conditioning further financial assistance to Afghanistan on meeting this requirement. However, the Taliban have decisively rejected these proposals.
In response to American demands, Kabul expressed the view that the United States should not only abandon attempts to recover the weapons but also support Afghanistan in fighting the Islamic State of Khorasan through additional supplies.
Taliban deputy spokesman Hamdullah Fetrat briefly noted that they do not plan a more detailed comment at this time.
