If you didn't use force in the United States of America you wouldn't get a soul into the jail use of force to oust peoples within the government is a constitutional right use the force if you want it to work son you've gotta put your hands on it
Attempted.. they did lol
The problem in Africa is the same problem they have here in America; so called democratic process where money is the really determining factor creating leaders who are behold to their sponsors than to the people; the difference is that here in America we have this huge security apparatus that work in concert with an implacable information manipulation machine that politicians have errected to protect themselves, and harshly punish anyone who dare to protest like the poor jan 6 protesters. But there in Africa, the sponsors are western foreign powers who want control of the ressources, and they use their expeditionary forces as security apparatus but from time to time when the popular push back is determined, they fail like in Mali, and central Africa. Therfore, that democracy crap is just for the naives and gullibles.
Why don’t they monitor housing crisis in the US??
USA can give some free visa to them 😂
Release MY President Trump!
They r probably in charge.
But US didn’t condemn the coup in Egypt and Turkey.
Why does this administration want to do more to harm the USA then to protect us. I guess the biden crime family and his sidekicks want to completely destroy America and watch us struggle while they get wealthy. Wake up America before it's too late
They are watching for a reason. They are scared.
Who are we to be involved in Africa business has nothing to do with us. I think Americans need to mind it's own business.
Pleeeeeeease do not monitor send aid none of that unless the people ask of it. The people of Haiti are already terrorized by Canada and US and they want the US out because they’re making things hard for the people, the Middle East is a mess because of war on terrorism despite our own government terrorizing and allowing criminals to terrorize the people, do not weasel your way over into African countries with your fake humanitarianism. Y’all tried to bully Uganda, again do not help unless the people (not the government) ask for it. They have enough to deal with China we know if it wasn’t for the natural resources and a moment of opportunity for world domination, the US wouldn’t care.
' ! 👃 ! America ' Stay Home ' & Keep OUT of Africa ' ! ' ! ❤️ ! " Responsibility Matters for ALL Lives " ! 🇺🇸 ! '
Impeach biden
Monitoring closely, what for? How about monitoring the Biden's bank accounts and fake businesses closely??
Lies she tells. It's 2023 everyone knows the US has never cared about an African country😂😂. All they want is access to resources. Those people are fighting for their independence against European countries.
Attempted? He already took over, didn't he? I saw the press photo op video.. Revolutionize guys!
Why is this americas issue?
Meanwhile we have thousands of illegals coming in through the south boarder every week. . . 🙄 Democrat lead cities are running rampant with crime.
Democrats trying to get the USA into another war that isn't our business .
American govt loves to meddle in other countries affairs but get mad when Russia/china does it to them
Why are they watching so closely? Are we fomenting this? Are we sending weapons? Or just pallets of cash?
Why is America always trying to be the world police??😅 Alwqys wanting a piece of the pie
They should focus on their own people and their lives..
Just look at China.
History has shown us that if OUR govt is "closely monitoring" they bought & paid for this coup to (continue to or get access to) control resources and/or start in-fighting to steal power that way. This colonized nation is >99% Muslim and its natural resources include uranium, coal, iron ore, tin, phosphates, gold, molybdenum, gypsum, salt, petroleum. Gee, I wonder why the US, with little to no imporr/export relationship would give af about a French-colonized state 🤔 a mystery
The imperialists trying to defend the resources. They think they can still do what they were doing hundred years. Stealing , looting Africa and the rest of the world. Who is evil is this game ? Not Russia or China.
At least the Comments are genuine
Let’s monitor our own White House corruption.
Our government wants something out of this
Colonization is over, the US needs to mind its own business.
biden, '' were closely monitoring the situation in Afghanistan, to get our valliant democrat soldier back from north korea dmz .''
How does america continue to tell others what to do our country is one of the worst, our government is horrible
America Military Industrial Complex can’t resist starting another terrorist group.
Yooo we better not get another mfin inflation smh ….
The white house is worried because they also have fraudulent elections and they are afraid
