Trump Wants to Send US Allies from Afghan to the Congo

Trump may send Afghan allies who were promised new lives in the U.S. to Congo instead, advocacy group says

Advocates for the refugees, many of whom fought the Taliban alongside U.S. forces, say the plan is intended to pressure them to return to Afghanistan at great personal risk.

"The Democratic Republic of Congo, a Central African country where the Afghans have no ties, is experiencing one of the world's worst humanitarian crises, with more than 600,000 refugees there already after decades of armed conflict.

VanDiver accused the Trump administration of intentionally offering the Afghan refugees an alternative so bad that they would choose to return to Afghanistan even if it means risking their lives.

"This is insane," he told NBC News in an interview, noting in a separate statement that "you do not solve the world's number one refugee crisis by dumping it into the world's number two."

Making America Great Again around the world!

"Other countries love me... I mean, America. We are the greatest. We could whip Hulk Hogan, you know, when he was great! The Congo loves us, and the Afghan Families who we promised to bring here if they helped us... they love me, too! They'll love the Congo! It's like a Paradise there. Or Greenland, we could send them there! They'll be a US state, soon! Thank you for your attention to this message."
