Biden admin silent as lawmakers worry it seeks to normalize relations with Assad

The Biden administration’s decision to grant the cousin of Syrian president Bashar al-Assad a U.S. visa is drawing outrage on Capitol Hill and generating concerns the United States seeks to normalize relations with Assad and unwind sanctions on his embattled government.

Ali Makhlouf, the son of U.S.-sanctioned Syrian business tycoon Rami Makhlouf and Assad’s cousin, was seen in Los Angeles earlier this month driving a $300,000 Ferrari. His appearance raised questions about how he was able to obtain a U.S. visa, given his father’s presence on the U.S. sanctions list and close relationship with Assad, who is also heavily sanctioned for the mass killing of Syrian citizens in the nation’s 10-year-old civil war

I bet Ali Makhlouf has a Hunter Biden painting hanging in his living room.

One hand washes another.

At least it wasn’t the Syrian dictator’s cousin’s friend’s former roommate.

The Biden crime family is ready to do business with anyone who has wealth. All Biden’s decisions are based on monetary gain.

I have no problem with Assad Jr.

He has not seriously threatened Israel in at least a decade.

He was just a standard issue dictator who fought back when Obama and his criminal allies decided to kill him and take over Syria.

The crap that the MSM and the neo-Cons have spun about Assad is absurd.

The poison gas attacks, etc.

Obama wanted to install the Muslim Brotherhood in Damascus.

Assad and his loyalists said NO!

“Biden admin silent as lawmakers worry it seeks to normalize relations with Assad.”

This may be the FIRST THING that Biden does right in office.

But he has access to a huge bank account, and all he needs is your personal check for $1,000 dollars to cover fees and costs, and when it clears he’ll give you half of the billion dollars secreted away there.
