Oh, right, take away people’s health insurance and reimburse the Taliban. Great idea.
It’s against my belief! The way that Planned Parenthood is against someone’s religion.
The Trump administration has asked Congress for funds to reimburse the Taliban for travel expenses incurred during peace talks.
and if congress won’t appropriate the funds he’ll declare another national emergency and take the funds from the department of education.
I assume they would lease a tRump branded plane, and stay in a tRump property
Trump Admin Wants To Use Taxpayer Dollars To Reimburse Taliban Travel Costs
Well sure , but they have to submit their travel reimbursement requests on the proper forms in triplicate, like all good Government employees
Who knows how much money would ultimately go to Trump?
What’s next? Asking to reimburse Russian spies helping the Trump GOP win in 2020? God knows GOPers would support it.
Likely it is more of an equity stake deal.
Seems like taxpayer money is going to all the wrong people these days.
I can’t even get medical assistance to afford a fucking albuterol inhaler so I can breathe but these motherfuckers are supposed to get cab fare?
Fuck you, Fat Ass!
Trump Admin Wants To Use Taxpayer Dollars To Reimburse Taliban Travel Costs
How much have we spend so far trying to kill the Taliban without success? One trillion? The few thousand dollars of expenses are not even a rounding error.
And anyway whatever the final deal is, it will involve payments to the warlords that are opposed to the Taliban, to convince them to support the plan, and then huge subsidies to the new Taliban government. Which would be fair because the US has been bombing their country and killing people that just happened to be in the wrong place for 18 years.
So yes, the next son-of-a-bitch that comes along proposing “regime changes” (not sure who gave the US the right to decide which regime stays and which one goes), tar and feather the bastard.
That depends on whether you include what it cost us to bring them to power in the first place.
So, how are those goat meat BBQs working out?
Nicely put.
Don’cha think it nifty to pay the folks that kill our troops and our allies? Imagine the blowback if a democrat did that.
Why not let Afghanistan’s largest opium dealers pay their own way. After all, they aren’t destitute. RPG’s like the one in the image aren’t cheap even in the gun market at Landi Kotal. And yeah i saw that market first hand in 1970.
Also, the Taliban already have an office in the Gulf States. Whoever is the negotiator for them can stay there.
I won’t grouse about some travel expenses. But I draw the line at the expensive bespoke Italian suits.
Just for consistency, why not have the Taliban submit a bill, and then we can just not pay it
My thoughts exactly. The Trump crime family always profits.
All I can respond with is a hearty and exclamatory WTF???
Who in the administration decided this would be appropriate?
