When we were deployed, some Afghans risked their lives to help us. Now Trump wants to send them out to be killed by the Taliban.
It’s a disgrace, a betrayal, and a decision that endangers future US troops.

2/ Still no defamation suit, btw.
Personally, I don’t think it’s happening before the election (or ever) because he’s at major risk during discovery.
His explanation?
He wants us to pay for it with public funds.
Not great either way. 🤷🏻♀️

Not a put on—I *seriously* thought this was an attempt at humor.
But it seems that *he* (Rob Schneider) was the one being serious.
These people are members of the most dangerous American cult of the last 150 years and possibly ever.
They are—candidly—utterly mad. They’re also in charge right now.
