Because of Joe Biden, the Taliban is now better equipped than ever, with a huge arsenal of U.S.-supplied military equipment seized during Biden’s botched withdrawal.
The Sunday Times outlined the Taliban’s huge gains, including Humvees, Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles, drones, anti-aircraft guns, rifles, helicopters, and fixed wing aircraft:
And these weapons likely won’t just stay in the hands of the Taliban. The vast amount of equipment seized has given the Taliban a new potential source of revenue – selling weapons on the black market. U.S. officials warn that these weapons could fall into the hands of ISIS, China, or Russia. Some not seized by the Taliban have already headed into Iran.
According to Pentagon Spokesman John Kirby, the Biden administration doesn’t have “any policy solutions” to recoup or destroy these weapons.

Because of Biden, billions of dollars of high-tech military weaponry is in the hands of terrorists, and they have no plan to address it. That is another “contingency” they didn’t plan for, and yet another reason that under Biden, every American is less safe.
