Dante Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 This girl would be a much better option. She crushes it. I don't think I have ever met a Vietnamese person I didn't like. Hard working, pleasant demeanor. I worked with a Vietnamese guy for 10 years and had some horror stories from their dealing with the communists. Arbitrarily forcing way into his home looking for money and so on. https://www.citizenfreepress.com/breaking/this-is-awesome/ 1

TPS Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 Context is everything.... "The Israeli government used my love and desire to see my grandmother to silence me and made my ability to do so contingent upon my signing a letter — reflecting just how undemocratic and afraid they are of the truth my trip would reveal about what is happening in the State of Israel and to Palestinians living under occupation with United States support," she said in the statement.

That "desire to see her grandmother" excuse would seem more sincere if Ihlan Omar wasn't initially accompanying her.

Or, you know, that she actually wanted to see her Grandmother without having to meet with groups who are trying to destroy Israel, or have her trip funded by the Muslim Brotherhood. She even managed to piss off some CNN liberals (Dan Abrams, specifically) by being disingenuous about wanting to see Granny Belichick. 1

Or you know, she could have clicked on Google directions to see if there's another way into West Bank? Quote Alternatively you can fly into Jordan and then travel to the King Hussein (better known as the Allenby Bridge) crossing. The Allenby Bridge crossing is accessible by bus or taxi from Amman city in Jordan and takes around an hour to travel. Context is everything.
B-Man Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 Palestinian Authority bans LGBT activities in West Bank. The ban came after LGBT group Al-Qaws was planing to hold a gathering for its members in Nablus.

Ha ha ha just kidding, they're not going to say a word. 1
yall Posted August 20, 2019 Posted August 20, 2019 Out of curiosity, does anyone know if she would have needed to pay out of pocket for the trip to see her grandmother if there was no political purpose? I.E. did she also change her tune because it would potentially go from a taxpayer funded trip to one where she'd need to float the bill?

If the taxpayers did not foot the bill, she would have had plenty of sponsors for her protests trip to see her grandmother.

I assumed that might be the case but I'm unfamiliar with what elected officials are/aren't allowed to accept when it comes to various junkets sponsored by donors.

Since when has regulations stopped them from accepting things? Laws are for the little people. ?

In practice...Congresscritters frequently claim personal travel as "business." Go to Paris, meet with the junior executive to the Deputy Minister Counselor for Public Affairs to discuss State Department letterhead, then "study European implementation of high-speed rail as a member of the House Transportation Committee" on a two-week jaunt to the French Riviera. 4 minutes ago, yall said: I assumed that might be the case but I'm unfamiliar with what elected officials are/aren't allowed to accept when it comes to various junkets sponsored by donors. From a donor, that would be a campaign contribution, and illegal unless laundered through a "charitable" foundation.
