    So what you’re saying is that the Leahy Law is worthless as long as Blinkin or another dishonest Zionist is the Secretary of State?

    Talk about the fox guarding the fucking henhouse! 🤦

      It’s worthless for the goal you intend.

      But imagine the President actually wanted to pressure another country, like maybe Hungary. In that case, it could be very useful.

        Which is the goal the law was supposed to have as well.

        But imagine the President actually wanted to pressure another country, like maybe Hungary. In that case, it could be very useful.

        Except the US isn’t sending weapons to Hungary and is almost exclusively sending weapons to countries that are amongst the worst human rights violators in the world.

        To be worth anything, the law would have to constrain the administration rather than empower it to make unilateral decisions that run counter to international law.

          If so, it wouldn’t be the first time the spirit of a law was broken but not the letter.

          Of course they do, Hungary is a NATO power. In fact, those weapons were recently pressured by the Senate.
