In what is simultaneously a humiliating setback for the Deep State and a welcome victory for noninterventionist American taxpayers, the White House on Friday announced that US military forces will be withdrawn from Niger over the coming months. The move comes after Niger’s mid-March declaration that was ending its military cooperation with the United States.

Following Niger’s announcement, US military officials scrambled in vain to salvage the relationship.
