The US should have zero Afghan refugees. They had 20 years to fix their dump. They are trash, they deserve trash. Same for Somalians and Haitians.

My ranking is, Somalians are the absolute bottom of the barrel "migrants". Then Haitians, they have no brains. Then come Afgans.

No disagreement there.

"The move comes amid increasing pressure on President Biden, who vowed in a 2021 executive order to increase opportunities for Americans to resettle refugees and restore the U.S. as the world’s safe haven. The Trump administration decimated the refugee program, which traditionally tasks nine resettlement agencies with placing refugees in communities."

ya just know they had to tack that last bit on - Trump didn't anticipate that Biden would abandon Afghanistan in the middle of the night nor did/does he envison the US as a permanent dumping ground for all the world's disgruntled. Resettling these folks and those like them in local, i.e., middle east countries, would have been a more sane approach. Same for south americans.

I think we need to see photos of how it was left. FOIA?

About four billion people don’t use toilet paper. About 70% - 75 % of the world’s population does not use toilet paper.

I’ve spent many years climbing rock, ice, and mountains with some extended adventures.

Very few waste energy carrying toilet paper.
And after a week, no one wants to be downwind of them, and with good reason. THEY STINK!

Do you clean your dishes by wiping them with a paper towel?
I would hope not.

Most people bathe regularly so the stink does not build up.
Many use a bidet or washlet.

The answer is snowballs.
Keeps you clean and invigorated.

“ The Air Force described materials as ‘completely depleted, such that no materials remain available for other real world missions,’” it adds.

Some of the damage to the buildings left them unusable for the military until the plumbing and walls are repaired.

Here’s the Inspector General’s report on the costs/damages.

President Trump would have been impeached 6 times over this alone.

"..ruined by spray paint, human biological matter and holes' ..."

Sounds like some of the greyhound terminal restrooms in south carolina and georgia.

That’s what you get for using woke military bases as a zoo to flood our country with foreigners

And the Sextion 8 housing they’re getting won’t fare any better.

Did the IG report talk of all the violence at these places or is that being kept secret?

And the clowns in our ‘government’ admit that only about 3% of those that came over are electively under the Special Visa program.

So, about 3000 or so, eligible. What about the other 97,000-100k? What happens with them?

I know one thing. They’re smart enough to know that the woman has to pop out a US citizen and she stays, the kid stays and the family can reunified, so even more can come.

The first time I transported ANA troops in Afghanistan they left the aircraft a filthy mess. After that, I always had the translator make an announcement that they were to take all their trash with them.
