Trump underestimates how much our Iraqi and Afghan partners mean to Americans who served with them. Denying visas alienates his own troops.

@JonahSaltzman@PeterMoskos@ksieff just bc some one works as a "terp" doesn't give them the right to immigrate to the US. But if they have -
@AircraftSparky@PeterMoskos@ksieff we fucking promised them https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/immigrate/iraqis-work-for-us.html … and we completely abandoned them. Disgraceful. -
