Minneapolis airport still flying millions in cash possibly tied to terrorism

[WShingtonExaminer] Millions of dollars in cash, including large sums believed to be funding foreign terrorists, continue to fly out of the Minneapolis airport annually, according to lawmakers investigating the money funneling schemes.

Republican Minnesota state Rep. Kristin Robbins, chairwoman of the House Fraud Prevention and State Agency Oversight Committee, told the Washington Examiner that these cash-smuggling operations have been moving massive volumes of money via the state’s busiest airport for years.

But the $350 million flown out of Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport in 2025 marked a record-high haul, a steady rise from the $343 million in 2024 and more than triple the $75 million identified back in 2000.

Robbins said the amount of money exiting through MSP, although only the country’s 16th largest airport, is far higher than the cash totals leaving other major U.S. travel hubs, including Los Angeles International Airport, New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport, Chicago O’Hare International Airport, and the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

"We’re not that big of a city compared to these other international airports, but we have 90% more cash leaving ours," Robbins said.

1 How do they know that? Is it illegal? Or is it legal if the money is declared? If it is illegal, how do they know and why don't they stop it?

2 ^2 A quick search says that anything more than $10,000 has to be declared leaving or entering the US.
As to not stopping it, either it is getting past Customs somehow or they are busy building a case and want to see how many people they can successfully prosecute

3 Over $10k has to be declared but is not illegal per se. Suspicious though.
