You better believe every "aid package" we give another country is rife with leakage that finds its way back into the pockets of politicians.

They blocked entry to Americans, which is their right to do as a sovereign country, but don’t expect a handout from us.

They lifted the ban in the last 24 hours because they realize they’re gonna going to need our money but I still say no thanks to that.

Too many wealthy expats in the Bahamas. They will get US aid.

More states should have done the same. You realize NY and NJ folks have been spreading this shite because they refuse to stay home when sick.

I don't see any reason to let one of America's most popular vacationing spots to turn into a hell hole. We practically own it.

Are you equating American states to a sovereign country like the Bahamas? States don’t have the right to exclude, Americans are free to travel to any state unhindered in the Constitution.

Use the aid to airdrop all the liberal fricks in there to help them with all their brilliant ideas and such.

The federal government needs to get out of the foreign aid business altogether unless they want to allow me to “self-direct” my tax dollars. I’m all for helping causes that I BELIEVE are worth my dollars. That’s what charitable organizations are for.
