Money which COULD have been spent on unemployed Americans, our Military, our Roads and Bridges, our children's STEM education...
If he could have done this spending LEGALLY, LEGITIMITLY, and CONSTITUTIONALLY, he would have done it months ago!
This is money sent to a known Terrorist Group which has killed many American Citizens!
Hmmmmm, Can Obama now be indited, arrested, and prosecuted for TREASON?!
