Last night Rachel Maddow explained why Trump does not want us to talk about what happened in Niger. Apparently the Trump Administration’s actions with Chad put our troops in harms way in Niger. Rachel explains the details in this video.

1. Bottom line: Four Green Berets died because Exxon was angry at Chad.

They wanted revenge for being made to pay back taxes, and Rex probably used the idiot in the WH to stick it to an important ally without considering blowback. That’s my take on Rachel’s dot connections, and I’m sticking to it.

Shows the incompetence and inexperience too. The idea that outsiders can drain the swamp is really starting to look stupid.

Rachel Maddow has explained the story behind the soldiers being killed in Niger this way:

- Trump decides to ban immigrants from Chad.
- Chad pulls its very effective troops out of Niger.
- Without the protection of African troops, Americans are killed by ISIS the following week.
- Oh yeah, and Chad was banned for making an issue about taxes not paid by EXXON Mobil.
