Burchett (R-TN-2) 11/03/2022: Twitter thread – โ€œSo much for being the most transparent administration in history. Biden officials refused to cooperate with the Afghanistan spending watchdog for the first time ever. What are they trying to hide? From the SIGAR report: "SIGAR, for the first time in its history, is unable this quarter to provide Congress and the American people with a full accounting of this U.S. government spending due to the noncooperation of several U.S. government agencies" Link to PDF | sigar.mil @USAID and the @USTreasury refused to cooperate with SIGAR in ANY capacity, and the @StateDept was "selective" with what information it provided. The United States has spent over $1 BILLION taxpayer dollars since August 2021, and we deserve to know where it's going. President Biden wrote in Feb. 2021: "The revitalization of our national security and foreign policy workforce requires a recommitment to the highest standards of transparency." He was right. He should listen to himself. Memorandum on Revitalizing America's Foreign Policy and National Security Workforce, Institutions, and Partnerships | The White House It's beyond unacceptable for our federal government to dodge accountability like this. It's cowardly, and it's far less than the American people deserve from our leaders. We won't tolerate this kind of behavior next year, that's for sure.โ€
