Exactly what does the USA get for 750 million? I think that’s a fair question being my wife wants to know what I spent 75 dollars on...

I agree DoD. We are 22T in the hole and we give Jordon 750, for what?

 

Hey DC why don’t you give your citizens that 750 M to help them pay their Medical Insurance Premiums.  The swamp is out of control imho
