Wow, that's a huge lesson he's learning, you need to do a little research.
Are the migrants wanting handouts he refers to the ones who are working low paying physical jobs that Americans refuse to do, sending most of that money back to their families still in their native countries? What a bunch of freeloaders. /s
More like the women who wouldn't have sex with him for free.
They also don't get any federal handouts. Anything they do get is from state programs in a handful of blue states.
Well that’s the problem! What is California doing helping immgrnts when they could be sending all that money to pay for the freeloading south?
Yeah the "handouts" usually require documentation.
Also, having a service record hasn't stopped ICE one little bit.
And even if they could, it wouldn't save them, as being "one of the good ones" does nothing to prevent deportation or worse.
As a vet, tRump doing this pissed me off almost as much as anything else he did in his first term. Some of the most ardent service(wo)men I served with were part of this program around 2006-ish. Many of them stayed in past their required terms (which I think had to be 8-years if I'm not mistaken), unlike myself and others looking to get through college debt-free.
If you're willing to put your life on the line for a country you aren't currently a citizen of, you deserve to be a citizen of that country on the other side of that service.
Ah, so he has learned the Russian language to a degree at least approaching fluency?
As has his wife?
And he has been teaching his kids Russian as well?
He does, after all, very seriously consider language as a fundamental element of a nation's culture:

[Regarding Huffman's stance on the Russo-Ukraine conflict, as of ~6 weeks ago]:
Hey... wait a minute...
[From another part of the article]:
No, of course he doesn't speaking any fucking Russian, he's a dumbass gun nut hyperconservative from Texas, he most likely can barely even speak English.
Ah you see, Americans who move abroad, no no, they aren't immigrants... they are ex-pats, which is a totally different thing guys, for real.
What a fucking idiot.
I feel bad for his soon to be orphaned kids.
And dog.
Not his at least equally stupid wife though.
He's MAGA, he doesn't know how to research.
