My pediatrician office requires you get this vaccine. I’ve kicked it down the road 6 months so far and he’s agreed to let me keep waiting but they’re about to kick me out of office. My son has already had a seizure following vaccinations. I told the pediatrician that you can just treat the measles with vitamin A and any following complications with steroids or antibiotics. He got mad and nearly yelled and said no doctor would ever treat measles with vitamin A. And almost all cases are hospitalized. I then said yes, for quarantine not due to severity. He grew angry and asked if I knew how many cases were exploding. I said zero. Alabama has had one case since 2002. He then got really mad and pulled up some website where it showed 2,200 cases. He said yeah so Alabama was spared but what about South Carolina. Ugh 🙄 obviously this is something I’m actually looking into. Why try to scare me with stuff I already know. What I don’t understand is why he would say nobody would ever treat with vitamin A?
As stated previously, take it up with your leaders. They want nato more than us. We pay all of it, idek why you’re complaining. You pay chump change in comparison to us. In fact, trying to end nato is what sent the international world into a panic and turned up the heat in hate against Trump.
@RobboBhood@1892Ben It’s weird how the uk are the only ones being contrary. But yank is a weird one. Civil war southerners called northerners yankees for one or two generations. But it means nothing now and coming from the uk. Really odd lol
@SnifflyPanda@sshderm Kamala would’ve been up your butts more, so I’d still vote for him again and ironically if you really do hate us, you should be thankful he won and not her.
The only help I need is for the rest of the world to stop draining our resources so that we can keep more of our own money. Spitting on us in return just makes us hate you more, but even if you didn’t we don’t want friends anymore. If you people don’t want an ally, I understand. I don’t either. But you need to take it up with your own leadership. Us who voted Trump in on the basis of America first want out of everywhere. As soon as he starts actually pulling out, the same world that acts like they constantly hate us and don’t need us online stat pitching royal fits. Throwing tantrums on world leadership levels. Kier starmer among the worst of them. Him and Canada both. You people say you want us out. We start pulling resources, then you scream as us for it. Make up your minds. You pitch such fits you shut Trump down and turn him complete opposite of what he was supposed to do. We hate him too now. Because he still helps you all too much. However since you hesitated on military support for us the one time we ask for it, we people of America are done with you too now. You can beg mercy from the next one
You want some synonyms? You’re arrogant. Youre high on your own air supply. You think your crap doesn’t stink. You’re on a high horse. Your nose is so stuck up in the air I’m suprised you don’t trip over your own feet. You’re blatantly placing yourself as better than 350 million people. Of whom you’ve never interacted with on any real level. Of whom subsidizes your entire freaking union so that you may have your stupid socialist policies. So that you may yell back at us that we are peasants without free healthcare. So idiotic.
It was unclear based on your profile, flag, and language. I asked you were you from the UK or Albania and you haughtily ignored the question. If you think the US is just out there killing English citizens, you’re a whole nother level of absolute dumb. You think the UK government wants America to forget them and cut ally ties, you’re an imbecile. You may hate Trump but the second he’s gone you people will be begging to back in Americas good graces. It makes more sense that you’re angry now, because nearly everyone from the UK hates us. Out of jealousy. You’re all miserable people. You’ve done it to yourselves. until you people come here for tourism, realize your error, and kiss our butts. But your government needs us and you know it. You hate it. I hate it. I wish we were isolationists and didn’t even allow your haughty tourism, let alone pull all the aid. You people get more perks than anyone on this planet from us. Israel is the only one that may surpass you on special accommodations, but not money. I hope Israel is taken care of soon as well.
Your anger should be directed towards your own leaders. Your ministers even wrote letters asking for assistance.
1. USAID Development Agreement Renewal (2024)
- In April 2024, Albania’s **Minister of Finance Ervin Mete** signed the renewal of a development aid agreement with USAID (extending it until 2030, with financing up to **$97 million**). This built on a 2013 agreement that had already provided significant support for reforms in rule of law, governance, economic growth, human rights, and EU integration efforts.
- Mete publicly highlighted the US as “one of the biggest supporters” of Albania and emphasized the importance of continued American assistance for reforms and EU accession. The signing occurred at the US Embassy in Tirana with USAID Mission Director Mischere Kawas.
2. Earthquake Recovery Aid Appeal (2019)
- Following the devastating November 2019 earthquake, **Prime Minister Edi Rama** actively sought international assistance, including from the US. He reconfigured the state budget, contacted world leaders, and called for expert and monetary aid, stating Albania “lacks the capacity to do this (reconstruction) alone.” This led to a donors’ conference where the US pledged support (e.g., $3.9 million for managing donations and recovery efforts).
3. Flood Relief and Humanitarian Requests
- In late 2010 (or similar flood events), Albanian institutions **requested US military excess property** through formal channels for disaster relief. This included items to control flooding and support vulnerable areas, coordinated via the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency. Officials noted the request helped increase Albania’s disaster relief.
4. Military and Defense Cooperation Requests
- Albanian governments have repeatedly sought US military aid, training, and equipment to modernize forces and meet NATO standards. For example, US Foreign Military Financing (FMF) and programs like the European Recapitalization Incentive Program (e.g., UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters) were pursued because Albania lacked resources on its own.
- Defense Minister **Olta Xhacka** and other officials have engaged in high-level meetings (e.g., at the Pentagon) to reaffirm and expand this support, including cyber defense assistance after Iranian cyberattacks.
5. Broader and Ongoing Requests
- **Prime Minister Edi Rama** has publicly thanked the US for “invaluable support” on EU accession, UN Security Council efforts, Kosovo recognition, and judicial reforms in joint appearances (e.g., with Secretary Blinken in 2024).<grok:render card_id="2b1d05" card_type="citation_card" type="render_inline_citation"><argument name="citation_id">57</argument></grok:render>
- Historically, post-communist leaders like **Sali Berisha** sought and received strong US backing for democratization and elections in the early 1990s. Even under Enver Hoxha (communist era), requests for US military and fiscal representatives were made.
These examples show the Albanian government (across administrations) proactively engages the US for economic, humanitarian, military, and political support as part of its Euro-Atlantic strategy.
More like a grimace on my face you poor 3rd worlder. Once your IQ level raises a bit, you might realize that’s not why I called you haughty. You will be humbled soon. You’re not even aware of what delegates do on your own country’s behalf here. We pulled back support temporarily and you people cried about it. You live in a bubble and are ignorant to what’s actually happening. They make you mad and then come to beg to us. You’re in a hamster wheel.
@SnifflyPanda@sshderm So you got nothing and you’re stupid. P.s. even Paris Hilton doesn’t sound like Paris Hilton. Go watch an interview of her saying she does it because stupid people believe it and make her money. Once again you’re ignorant and mad for fake reasons.
There’s about 50 different ones so good luck with that. Apparently your vulture begging government is lying to you. In 2024 they lobbied and petitioned our leaders to sign an AID deal with you to provide money and support until 2030. At that time they’ll come back asking for more.
Nobody wants us out of there more than me. But hey maybe if you feel that way you should let the rest of your country and your leadership know. They need to stop coming here on our soil and begging for help. You think you speak for your country but you don’t. It’s not reality. The citizens of America would much rather spend the money on our own families.
