Elon Musk, has previously claimed that the USAID agency is "a criminal organization" and Trump had agreed to "shut it down".
USAID “employs around 10,000 people, two-thirds of whom work overseas, according to the Congressional Research Service. It has bases in more than 60 countries and works in dozens of others. However, most of the work on the ground is carried out by other organizations that are contracted and funded by USAID.”
How does the government keep track of where our US taxpayers monies are actually going to help people worldwide and how much is being pocketed by crooks. Under these circumstances it seems impossible to me to know where the money is going and how much is being skimmed off the top.
Under the Biden regime I’ll bet dollars to donuts no one was actually keeping track where the monies were going and how much actually reached those in need.

iirc, JFK started several "soft power" programs, because the Soviets were having considerable success winning "hearts and minds" in the third world, by helping people, instead of sending troops in to crack heads.
A lot of people never liked it. I remember my grandfather complaining about "foreign aid" in the 60s.
So, now the US has reverted to the default choice being sending in troops to crack heads...if there is a profit in it for his nibs.

Look at them - more or less openly cheering attacks on federal officers with their insincere winks and nods at violence. It's nothing new; they used to do that when antifa would punch little old ladies leaving Trump rallies. They'd sit there and demand "evidence" that of course they'll all reject.
It's their pattern. You show them a thing the little d's are doing and they'll pretend not to see it. I'd actually respect a few of them (not very much, mind you) if they'd come out and actually say they support political violence because at least they'd be taking a stand (an evil and despicable one, but still a stand nonetheless).
But no. Our board libs never do that. They NEVER take stands on issues. They hide behind al, never state clearly what policy they want, then whine "yur not understanding what lib say want" or some other digitally mumbled reply. Or the Triumph the Insult Dogs show up. But since they're fairly...limited...upstairs all they have are the most banal insults - nothing funny or clever.

14 million deaths. Somebody posted that with a straight face.Well, tough call. Who do we believe,
The Lancet — a weekly peer-reviewed general medical journal, founded in England in 1823, one of the world's highest-impact academic journals and also one of the oldest medical journals still in publication — or Dope1?
THE LANCET:
Higher levels of USAID funding — primarily directed toward LMICs, particularly African countries — were associated with a 15% reduction in age-standardised all-cause mortality (risk ratio [RR] 0·85, 95% CI 0·78–0·93) and a 32% reduction in under-five mortality (RR 0·68, 0·57–0·80). This finding indicates that 91 839 663 (95% CI 85 690 135–98 291 626) all-age deaths, including 30 391 980 (26 023 132–35 482 636) in children younger than 5 years, were prevented by USAID funding over the 21-year study period.
USAID funding was associated with a 65% reduction (RR 0·35, 0·29-0·42) in mortality from HIV/AIDS (representing 25·5 million deaths), 51% (RR 0·49, 0·39–0·61) from malaria (8·0 million deaths), and 50% (RR 0·50, 0·40–0·62) from neglected tropical diseases (8·9 million deaths). Significant decreases were also observed in mortality from tuberculosis, nutritional deficiencies, diarrhoeal diseases, lower respiratory infections, and maternal and perinatal conditions.
Forecasting models predicted that the current steep funding cuts could result in more than 14 051 750 (uncertainty interval 8 475 990–19 662 191) additional all-age deaths, including 4 537 157 (3 124 796–5 910 791) in children younger than age 5 years, by 2030.https://www.npr.org/sections/goats-and-soda/2025/0...https://ph.ucla.edu/news-events/news/research-find...You'll have to Google the Lancet study, quoted above.

How many bails of US currency went missing during Bush's wars in Iraq and Afghanistan?
From the Google net sifter:
Unaccounted-for money in Iraq
According to the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (SIGIR) and other reports, billions of dollars were lost or went missing, including funds from both the U.S. government and Iraqi sources.
Reconstruction funds: The Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (SIGIR) reported that about 10% ($6.06 billion) of the $60.6 billion spent on U.S.-funded reconstruction in Iraq could not be accounted for. In 2012, SIGIR estimated that at least an additional 15% ($8 billion) of that amount was wasted.
Development Fund for Iraq (DFI): A 2010 SIGIR report found that the Department of Defense (DoD) could not properly account for $8.7 billion out of $9.1 billion in Iraqi oil and gas revenues it was entrusted with. Of this missing amount, there was no paperwork at all for $2.6 billion.
Airlifted cash: In 2004, the Bush administration flew $20 billion in cash into Iraq, much of which was distributed in pallets and suitcases. At least $6 billion of this money disappeared, with Iraqi officials suggesting the true figure could be much higher.
Unaccounted-for money in Afghanistan
Similar problems with mismanagement and a lack of accountability plagued reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan, though estimates of lost funds are difficult to quantify precisely.
Waste, fraud, and abuse: In 2020, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) reported that at least $19 billion of the $63 billion it reviewed was "lost to waste, fraud, and abuse".
Weak oversight: Throughout the mission, SIGAR highlighted weak oversight and poor record-keeping by the Department of Defense. This included a report revealing that in 2014 alone, the Army lost track of equipment worth more than $586.8 million.
Missing equipment: A 2017 audit by the Project on Government Oversight (POGO) found that the Army lost track of 13,000 items worth $1 billion, including weapons and other sensitive equipment.
And how is $20B sent to Argentina, "America first"?

14 million deaths. Somebody posted that with a straight face.
That's a well done study from the Lancet, Dope. Nothing to be sneered at, or treated cavalierly. The Lancet is pro science and very high in factual reporting. We used to have a statistician here, Loren Cobb, and he could evaluate the stat techniques uses and see if they were appropriate or flawed, but neither you, or LM have a clue methinks. I go by the reputation of the magazine and I don't think slightly less that 3 million a year in deaths is plausible. The USA doesn't have the best stats on childbirth deaths so if you wanted to put that money into reducing childbirth deaths I'd have a difficult time objecting, but you want to cut money for childbirths and it'll get worse. I understand black kids in Africa have little meaning to you, and child birth deaths in the USA aren't abortion, so it's not a hot button. It looks like kids dying isn't a priority - especially non-whites.

USA 5.6

And in the past when they've adjusted for premature deaths, the USA was worse than a lot of countries.
