Biden admin will only rescue American citizens in Israel if they agree to sign a promissory note

Joe Biden’s state department will only rescue American citizens in Israel if they agree to sign a promissory note to repay the money it costs to get them out.

Just for a moment, absent of politics and political affiliations, think to yourself just how many things the government funds that not only do you not agree with, but that are actively detrimental to the taxpayer.


Than try to rationalize this.

For what reason would the US be this penny pinching?

It’s absurd knowing how much money they shift and cater to non U.S. citizens around the world. And can basically pull “donations” and funds out of thin air.

Such as for Zelensky. While others in that corrupt country are telling U.S. citizens to shut up and lose a “grande Starbucks cup” as if everyone here gets their coffee from there.

I wouldn’t give them sh*t on that alone. While Zelensky’s wife is out splurge shopping in New York at Cartier recently. And Paris etc etc.

Anyway, not surprised especially coming from Brandon.

Who supposedly is now pushing building more on the U.S. border wall, while using Trump-era funds.

They shouldn't have been there to start with. They know the area is unstable. They took the risks, so now they pay the price for it. /S

There is no rationale or excuse for this reprobate administration.

Thanks to a law enacted under President Trump!

Information for U.S. Citizens about a U.S. Government-Assisted Evacuation
Procedures for Evacuation:

Generally, individuals evacuated on a U.S. government-coordinated transport, including charter and military flights or ships, even if those transports are provided by another country’s government, must sign an Evacuee Manifest and Promissory Note (Form DS-5528) note prior to departure. The Department of State uses the Form DS-5528 to document who got on which transport, and it lets us know how to contact evacuees for billing purposes.

U.S. law requires that departure assistance to private U.S. citizens or third country nationals be provided “on a reimbursable basis to the maximum extent practicable.” By taking a U.S. government coordinated transport, evacuees are obligated to repay the cost of their transportation. The amount billed to evacuees is based on the cost of a full fare economy flight, or comparable alternate transportation, to the designated destination(s) that would have been charged immediately prior to the events giving rise to the evacuation. Because different evacuation transports may go to different destinations, the cost of one transport may be different than another. We encourage people to leave on the first transport they are able and eligible to board.

Wow….just wow! He gives billions away to other countries and will only rescue his own people if they pay for it themselves?…You can’t make this sh*t up! a reply to: JinMI

a reply to: JinMI

Correct me if I am wrong but I seem to recall a story at some point that Biden and his goons made a family of a soldier killed overseas somewhere pay out of their own pocket to have his/her body brought back home?

This wouldn’t surprise me in the least that this America hating, dumpster fire administration would do this.

The statute dates far earlier than Trump and is under the purview of the secretary of state.


Put your TDS away please.

a reply to: JinMI

Put your BTS away. This is the same policy that Trump used.

The question is why you think Americans at risk in Israel should receive special treatment, above Americans who found themselves at risk in Venuzuela, Ukraine or Turkey?

a reply to: Sookiechacha

Thanks to a law enacted under President Trump!

1. A law that can be waived at any time in case of emergency, which Trump likely would have done in a case such as this.

2. Since when does Biden give a sh^t about laws, especially those his predecessors put in place?

3. Your TDS is showing.

Prove it! Show me when he did wave the law, that was last updated and enacted on his watch.

No.

But he(Biden) certainly could undo it..right? he has changed other things.

For the record, neither a Trump or Biden fan.

a reply to: Sookiechacha

Ok, honest question.....Can you ever admit the Left/Biden is wrong ? If that was your family over there, would you expect rescue only if you were whipping out a credit card ?

Doesn't matter who approved that law, it's just a cheap shot at Trump. Biden has overridden almost every law Trump enacted from day one. He could have easily said Nope, we ain't doin' that and got Americans out of there, but like a true water carrier, you blame Trump for Biden's failures.

You are correct, but I hope you're not surprised. Remember, Joe Biden said U.S. Soldiers are "stupid bastards".

Donald Trump was President. He signed the law, that you're complaining about in 2018.

Looks like you didn't know that this is a Trump era law, when you authored your thread. Also, I don't see anything in the statute that says a US president could wave the promissory not requirement if they wanted to.

Although, knowing Joe, he'd probably opt or loan forgiveness.

Can you admit that this is Trump's law that expects overseas citizens at risk to pull out their credit cards?

No. I don't think a president can choose to ignore laws that Congress wrote and passed and that were signed into law by the sitting President at the time.

a reply to: Sookiechacha

I just did. I also said it's a BS law, no matter who enacted it.

Can you admit Biden could have waived it and got them out ?

a reply to: JinMI

LUL

Can we send 50 trillion more to Israel and Ukraine and every other nation we pay off?

hahaha


oh god it wouldn't be so funny if it werent so obviously heinous.

I think he can find a way around it.
