General Michael Langley
That has to be made up. "Hi I'm General Mike CIA".
Knowing how much of an old-money spoils system those sorts of roles are, he’s probably the great-great-great-great fail son of the guy Langley’s named after. Nepo babies are, like, 99.9 percent of the one percent. Upwardly mobile monsters like Bezos are an anomaly.
I thought that might be the case, but nope it’s named after some hamlet in the middle of nowhere, England.
It's a fairly common British surname. There could be someone who posts here with that name.
Washington D. C. Johnson
I thought that was 
for a sec, which also makes sense
At one point the main representative of the US State Department to the press was one Ned Price.
Biden’s head of global anti-corruption is named Rich Nephew.
Rich Nephew
No fucking way
it's real
get fuuuuuucked.
I want to be hopeful about this, but Iraq tried doing something similar, and the US is still there.
the only way to make americans leave is by forcing them out
The americans will stay until casualties are too high to pretend they're training accidents. They will never leave just by asking.
Niger can do the same thing that Mali did to France. Siege the embassies and bases, cut them off from all food water and power and just play chicken to see if the US will invade over it or fuck off
This is a "watch this space" situation.
This is not going to end well for niger :(
Stop being so negative American power is crazy thin right now it’s basically now or never
Spot on, hopefully this leads to a global domino effect
