Host Tara uncovers a disturbing reality: despite the Taliban lowering the legal marriage age for girls to nine and rolling back basic human rights, the US government continues to send them $40 million of taxpayer money every two weeks. Tara targets Senate Majority Leader John Thune for blocking a vote on the "Defund the Taliban" bill, which has already passed the House twice. She traces the roots of this policy from the Biden administration's botched withdrawal to potential deep-state and corporate financial interests, drawing connections to China's multi-billion dollar contracts for Afghanistan's rare-earth minerals.
