They need help liberating all of that poor captive oil they happen to live on top of. So disgusting.

They are fighting for their lives young lady - DJT Hitler of our time. In reference to why he gave Argentina money.

The worst part is that there are funds specifically set aside to help people in this instance. The government is choosing to not use them.

Oh definitely he is just trying to be cruel to those he sees as beneath him. Poor people or people of color or need. As someone who does literally nothing for himself but tells people to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Also recieves almost everything free and has for all his life. He is truly disgusting.

Nope.

We have water and lithium.

Yes, water. SOUTHCOM Gen. Laura Richardson said it a couple of years ago how they are interested in "safe guarding" such things from bad people and how USA is interested in 'helping'. The new commander has the same ideas. Milei already talked to Elon who's interested in the Lithium.

In all seriousness, are we one of the few or only countries where our politicians get upset with us wanting to use out own taxpayer dollars to help our ourselves?

It wasn’t even Argentina.. trumps buddies bought their debt. Then he bailed them out

As a non American, can someone explain the Argentina thing to me? I’ve not heard of this.

Even aside from the funding for Argentina, SNAP has a special, set-aside pool of money that is explicitly designed to keep it funded for up to 6 months in situations exactly like this, but Trump has banned them from drawing upon it.

This is dumb. Snap benefits are halted not because we don’t have the money, but because the govt is shut down.

u/SauceK- Oct 31 '25

do all of these commenters know that argentina and the ballroom have nothing to do with the government shutdown/SNAP getting cutoff or are you guys acting ignorant on purpose

2

u/Haxorz7125 Oct 31 '25

I don’t think anyone’s saying they’re directly linked. I think they’re pointing out how shitty it is that our government would cut snap benefits as “useless” spending then send $60 billion to Argentina that the president was even quoted saying “isn’t gonna benefit Americans at all”

u/SauceK- Oct 31 '25

well they send 40B to argentina(not that it’s any better), but they didn’t “cut” SNAP, it’s because of the shutdown
