My amendment to withhold 100% of U.S. aid to Nigeria until its government stops the slaughter of Christians has PASSED. American taxpayers should NEVER bankroll governments that turn a blind eye while Christians are abducted, tortured, and murdered.

I commend him for getting his amendment passed. It just gives me pause that we have to make amendments to stop the precedent the Swamp set by funding murderous regimes. Sociopaths hardest hit.

Thanks for posing ‘note.

Congrats to Congress for getting this done.

But hold up...I thought that Congress just voted DOWN an amendment which would have defunded a foreign regime that was responsible for bombing buildings full of Christians in Lebanon?

I wonder how they got this one passed?

I thought being tortured was proof you were a real christian ?

I am just waiting for real entertainment to come back to our arenas.

Why is there any “foreign aid” from a country $40 TRILLION in debt?

[Jeff Vader]

that’s a nice start, but how about we just quit sending aid to any government at all?

[Irenic]

Go straight to congress, do not pass go.

[Gay State Conservative]

Just about the most dangerous thing in the world is to be a Christian in a majority moslem region.

American taxpayers should NEVER bankroll governments...

He should've stopped right there.

Now cut off foreign aid to ALL. Our dollar is worth $.02. Totally because of deficit spending. That is my two cents.
