NOW is the time for the US to intervene in the Caribbean...

[albacore]

Overwhelming interventions....
of food, medical aid, help in rebuilding.....
in Jamaica and other places clobbered by the hurricane.
Wait...those are dark-skinned people.
Never mind.
That's not the US way...

1. US aid is actually otw per the State Department.

2. And the Secretary of State is...

... just like every other department head in this regime, totally loyal by royal decree, to His Malignant Highness, The South End of a Northbound Yak, The Defecator In Chief, none other than President-In-Name-Only, Donald J. Trump.
No one in the GOP pinches a deuce without permission from His Infinite Orangeness. Murdering fishermen to show what a tough guy he is only one of his multitude of talents. And he's just getting warmed up.
Offering financial aid to an island full of people who chose to be Black is not on his to-do list. No, he's not dead yet, but I wake up every morning hoping to read his obituary.

3. And your point is?

Because aid is on the way.

4. I'll believe it when I see it...

... Trump's minions are not kind or generous people.

5. Any of the places affected would probably love to have anyone willing to get a face-to-face...

Look by volunteering to help them! Good luck! Do you know when and where you're going? ❤️

6. Did the Dept of State say how much? I'm in favor of Massive.

8. Gee...."send cash donations" and "volunteer". I meant real aid. And I love the banner "Democrat shutdown" nt
