Summary
Donald Trump has suspended U.S. refugee programs, canceling flights for nearly 1,660 Afghans cleared for resettlement, including families of active-duty U.S. military personnel, unaccompanied minors, and those at risk of Taliban retaliation.
This executive order leaves thousands more approved refugees in limbo.
Advocates warn the move abandons vetted allies and strains U.S. credibility.
Minority Democrats called the decision “shameful,” citing its impact on vulnerable groups and U.S. service members’ families.
“Some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I’m willing to make!”
I don’t enjoy how everyone else seems to have to fight for every policy decision, while the orange asshole just fucking does shit at will. He was doing it the last time too. Congress isn’t even in this equation, so what was biden getting push back from?
The Regressives have all branches of government.
Dems barely got that in last 30 years.
They also have the supreme court so nothing will stop the dictatorship
Yes that’s a big part of one of the three branches
Because. He wasn’t on Team ®. Our entire media is run by them now.
If anyone actually cared about these people they had 4 years to do anything for them. There is zero excuse for it taking so long Trump was able to cancel it.
Said like someone who confidently knows nothing about the complex process of vetting the backgrounds of people applying for refugee status.
You’re not wrong. Republicans and Dems at every level had 4 years to stop this shit show and failed miserably.
What makes you think Republicans wanted to stop this shit show?
Republicans are not a monolithic entity.
There are people like Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney and Megan McCain who are all right wing Dbags but see Trump for what he is. Aside from the tech bros like Elon Musk there are those in the business community that do not support Trump because they don’t have a seat at the table.
They failed just as much as Biden and the Democrats did to stop this.
Moscow Mitch fought against all bills, including from his own party just to make Dems look bad.
So I don’t give a fuck if he sees Trump as a dbag cause that asshole did everything he could to make Trump’s return possible. For all intents and purposes, Republicans are a monolith. Fuck them.
Such a black and white attitude towards the world. You must be fun at parties.
