@Sleepyguy saidTo return control of the government to rich people. Food, education and housing will exist to make money for the wealthy, not to feed, educate and house the population.
OK so what is his agenda no1? Do you have something more original than just Nazi Nazi Nazi?

None of us is intimately familiar with US Treasury process, and at first glance, any super-complicated system might seem like it contained fraud. Have to wait for the details.
If this were a proper audit, then it is harmless and might even find a mistake or two.
It's probably not that. This is just the propaganda machine churning away. 😆

@spruce112358 saidAh, you mean like Pres. Reagan funding the 'freedom fighters' who later morphed into the Taliban in Afghanistan ? Or the Iran-Contra Affair ? Happens all the time, I'm sure.

It may also be that a given organization was not yet classified as a terrorist organization when the funding was authorized.
@no1marauder saidHe proposes to do the the things he campaigns on, then the people vote for him because they want those things to done, and then to every DC corruptocrat's amazement and dismay, he actually tries to do them. Isn't that how it is supposed to work?
Name one thing he's proposed that would actually tend to give greater control of government to the People. Like abolishing the Electoral College? Nope. Ending gerrymandering? Nope. Etc. etc. etc.
So go down the list of things he's doing that you hate and you will find the people's democratically expressed will being imposed on our government.
I won't argue with you about his narcissism or whatever else drives him. I don't really care because the border is being closed, illegals are being deported, the DEI and Transgender poison is being squashed, traitors at the FBI are being fired, the J6 political prisoners are free at last, and so on. Every day is like Christmas morning because a man in DC is keeping his promises to the people.
@spruce112358 saidIt is no secret the US government has been funding terrorists in Syria.

@Sleepyguy saidBasically, you invent things that weren't happening and then praise Trump for "fixing" things that weren't broken. The border was never open, millions were deported under Biden for example. "Closing" it in the manner he has done is in violation of US law and treaty obligations which will soon be overturned.

Many of the other things you claim he deliberately did not say during the campaign because he knows most of the People oppose like freeing those who violently attacked police on January 6th, 2021. And I don't recall any campaign promise of his to fire any and everybody who took part in investigations of his criminal activities.
And not a single one of these things gives any power to the People over the government as you well know. Instead, he blunders about making illegal executive orders, some of which have already been quickly squashed by the courts, without even an attempt to propose legislation even though his party is in control of both Houses of Congress.
You've really swallowed the Kool-Aid; I never thought you'd descend to the level of Average Joe but here you are.
@no1marauder saidSo sorry to disappointment lol.

Yep I just invented all those illegals living off taxpayers in the cities, and the vast taxpayer funded NGO pipeline bringing them in.
The gas lighting isn't working anymore.
@Sleepyguy saidActually every analysis says even nondocumented immigrants make significant net contributions to the US economy.

The truth doesn't apparently work to right wing fanatics anymore. You seem willing to wreck the US economy for some reason; what exactly is it? White nationalism - don't like those swarthy foreigners here? Just "owning the libs"? Something else?
Do tell.
@Metal-Brain saidThe US has funded many "terrorists" - some of whom won their struggles and became "fathers of their country": Ho Chi Minh, Suharto, Somoza, the Shah of Iran, Duvalier, Gaddafi, Saddam Hussein, Pinochet AND Netanyahu at various points. 😆

We fund everybody it seems.
@no1marauder saidVery standard and boring no1. Calling people racist stopped working a while ago. Maybe you should go block some traffic, try some good old fashioned looting, or maybe burn a few cars and see how you get on.

@no1marauder saidI think he did answer the question, you just don’t realize the answer. The problem is you liberals.
Maybe you should answer the question.
@no1marauder saidWhy bother? Those conversations invariably begin and end with the "racist" accusation. We've been trying to get the US government to get control of illegal immigration since Bush Jr was trying to ram mass amnesty down our throats. NOW you want to know why? Gimme a break.
Maybe you should answer the question.
I don't dispute that we need and want people to come in (in a controlled, sensible and legal way). Trump himself has confirmed this endlessly. I also do not dispute that there could be big economic upheaval stemming from breaking America's addiction to illegal immigrant labor cold turkey. But I think the people want it done, whatever it takes.
