Chuck Grassley is older than the drive-in movie theater, canned beer, and stereo recordings.
But it was blocked by Republican Senator Chuck Grassley

'sorry we brought a literal apocalypse down on your country, and thank you for helping, but at this time would you kindly fuck off?'
fucking ghouls
edit: side note, not really a new precedent. look at how Afghani interpreters who risked their lives to aid coalition forces were abandoned, for years, to face retribution; or how Kurdish allies in the region were repeatedly fucked over. >

September 23, 2019 Trump admin broke law with visa delays for Afghans, Iraqis who worked for U.S., judge rules. Calling the government's arguments "untenable," the court ordered the Trump admin to produce a plan in 30 days on how to fix the visa application problem.
Guess what didn't happen?
August 31, 2021 How Trump broke the system that offers protection to Afghan allies "The processing time for Afghan SIV applicants in early 2021 reached 703 days." >

I really hope Trump and every piece of shit person who supported his illegal acts suffer every bit of pain they have caused others to feel...every fucking bit! >

Another douchebag Republican holding up a bill that helps people >

Leave it to Gassley to screw it up >

Chuck Grassley is older than chocolate chip cookies. >

If memory serves several proponents of this bill come from the military who believe that we should be helping protect Afghan people that helped us during the conflict. >

Anyone with a shred of honor believes we should help settle the people who risked their lives and those of their families to help us when we needed translators, liasons, instructors, etc.   The same crowd that always bristles when America’s integrity and loyalty and long term intent is questioned when it goes adventurin’ overseas, is the same crowd that always does exactly this when it’s time to protect and resettle the locals who risked everything to help when we asked. >

Fuck Chuck.  We used these people for a pointless fucking war and now their lives on the line. We owe it to them. >

All lives matter! /s >

Sad.. we  used thier intelligence.  Thier help.
Then they cast to the side >

I get that we were never going to "save" the nation of Afghanistan. It was probably never at any point about that, but I feel we owe them a moral obligation to provide the ones who made it over here alive, after giving us everything they had, a means to be here legally.
Sometimes - often even - we are the worst. >

Goddamnit I hate that my state re-elected this rotting corpse. >

Chuck Grassley is older than the Hoover Dam, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Mt. Rushmore. >

Huh, tell that to the Ukranians. >

Billions have been approved to Ukraine in bipartisan bills. Don't get words confused with actions. >

Literally everything shitty has an (R) attached to it. >

Blocked by Senator Chuck Grassley, this guy is clearly senile if he is talking about these Afghanis being a security issue, they seem to be very loyal to America, the military and the belief in democracy. Grassley just needs to retire before people figure out he is a racist.
