DD, better late than not at all.

Posted on Twitter prior to shooting? Calls to ban/remove Twitter? Calls to ban/remove 8ch for same reason? Congressional hearing? Why was there a coordinated effort to ban/remove 8ch? What was the reason? What was the REAL reason? Logical thinking. Q

Saudi is the mother of all terrorism they shouldn’t be around airbases that’s something even Somalia or Yemen wouldn’t do don’t matter if he’s dad is rich and bribes the system why train their pilots anyways they can’t do shitt with all the jets the US sold to them

Ya think perhaps that should've been done after 9/11?

The instructions came directly from MBS, so the dotard is going to retaliate by attacking New Guinea or Peru or Canada, Melanias beau ..cute couple..after dotard has another schedule visit to Walter Reed, Melania has already another head of state line up ,Trudea Is delicious

As we should also do for anyone applying for a tourism or student visa from pre-determined high risk countries, and for everyone who wants to live/work here. Screening works. It ain't perfect, but it helps.

The lefties are already saying it is “xenophobic” and rayyyyyy-cisct.

How about no more training Muslims? Not worth the risk. What is the benefit to the US?

No, Kick them all out! Let them train in Saudi Arabia! Remember this is where 15 9/11 hijackers came from. WTF are they thinking here? Who agreed to this? How long has this training been going on?

Liberals crying ' RACISM ' IN 321...

Good...Keep them out. We shouldn't be training our enemies.

Now that's racist 🤣🤣🤣🤣
