The CIA has multiple ways to keep funding their treasonous bullshit. Remember Iran-Contra?
I'm willing to be that Opium is funding so much backstabbing shit that U.S. Citizens are not aware of.

$200 Million is chump change, guys.

What would make a difference in your life? Another car? Maybe a decent used truck? Nothing special, but you can haul stuff now. Call it...$5 grand worth of aid?
Sounding pretty good? Ok. Here's 200 bucks instead.
$200 Million is a whole four percent of an aircraft carrier.
"Wow these assholes must be extracting insane amounts of wealth from the American people!" Now you're getting onto something.

He should send this money to Assad to help rebuild the country that Niggerbama, Saudi carpet pilots, and kikes destroyed.
