Y'all look at this orange mfer do work.
DWI Libs and cucks.

The U.S. will deny just over $95 million in foreign aid to Egypt over that country's failure to make progress on issues related to human rights and democratic norms. The administration will also delay about $195 million more for the same reason.
Part of the frustration on the part of U.S. officials has to do with a new law that regulates non-governmental organizations that some see as part of a wider crackdown on dissent, according to a report by Reuters.

In the broadest terms, President Trump campaigned on ideas of rethinking the value of U.S. spending on foreign aid.

That place is far better off than it has been in a very long time. We should stop expecting it to look like some western democratic utopia.

Good, then they won't miss it and we should hear no complaints from their side.

He should have said we are withholding that money because it's our damn money.

Our company is very active in Egypt and can tell you, they are hurting already.
Low oil prices, low gas prices, unemployment @ roughly 50%, no new mfging jobs, ISIS still f'ing around and killing cops and a very uneasy populace who still believe Assisi was given the election.
Not good times there.

They held an election, elected the Muslim Brotherhood, we didn't like it and there was a military coup. We paid the the Mubarak regime for decades so they would recognize the state of Israel and had no problem with their human rights abuses. Stop all foreign aid now. We're $20 trillion in debt for Christ sake.
