See, it never pays to reward extortionists.
Edit: On the other hand, ABC is now owned by a Trump-aligned billionaire, so it might be a good thing to take away its broadcast license.

Fucking sick of our presidents sucking up to these fuckers. Every president gotten on their knees for these terrorists. Hell there a picture out there of Bush holding hands.
I am sick of anything that sucks up to them. Sports are sucking up to them. Networks are sucking up to them.
You know, people who have hated muslims since 9/11, aren't being given anymore reasons to let off on that gas pedal. It is just making it worse.
Capitalist nations uphold those with capital. Who would have thought?
Remember how they caved and gave him all that money? Yet they're being threatned yet again. It just shows how dictators can never be satisfied.
They weren't caved. Their owner's a Trump crony, and the "settlement" was a bribe.
Someone had their feelings hurt by facts
This photo, Trump saying yes I blew this guy too. Other guy all proud and shit.
ABC should just say:
Give it your best shot (, a**hole is implied)
He would so lose in court and if he doesn’t what did you actually lose?
Taco Tuesday 🌮
What a limp dick loser.
Fuck Saudi Arabia. I wish them and Israel would bomb each other into oblivion.
Please don't include the citizens with their oppressors actions. Fuck the oppressors. None of them should exist. But i hope the people get to just fucking live in peace regardless of where they were born.
I wish them and Israel would bomb each other into oblivion.
They're allies. Both hate Arab democracy more than anything.
What would you say to those that wish the same on America since Trump defended the Saudi government's actions? Or is that a "special case" where civilians should be seen as distinct from their government?
I'm tired of hearing about them. We can get bombed too for all I care, but they're closer to each other.
