Do you really think Trump cares about AMERICAN children. He's taking away their food aid and healthcare too. |
Writing in ALL CAPS doesn't make your words true. Sorry not sorry. |
Best of luck to Mozambique if they decide to launch a war against us for not providing polio vaccines. It is time for them to grow up and support their citizens. |
A foreign or domestic polio outbreak is not a war that I want to fight. But you think it would be piffle... |
Libs want OUR tax dollars to pay for their radical agenda. Trans surgeries do not feed anyone. And it’s the exact opposite of health care. |
Then I suggest you get vaccinated and avoid countries that cannot provide basic healthcare to their citizens. |
People from all over the world come here. Or at least, they used to, before Trump's insane and unlawful visa and immigration shenanigans. This is a major reason that we provide vaccines to people in other countries. People used to understand these basics. |
You all are so unbelievably naive. The US never provided aid out of the goodness of our hearts. It was, always has been, and always will be, because it benefits us in the long run. Unfortunately Trump and co are unable to understand any multi-step process. You are ruining this country and putting us all in so much danger. |
Trump is deliberately ignorant because he doesn't care. Others in the cabinet are plain dumb. But Marco Rubio understands. JD Vance understands. That sociopath Stephen Miller understands. They know that they are killing people and destroying our country. |

How has shutting down USAID and getting rid of all this government waste helped average American citizens?
Is the money saved being used to help our feed children at risk or veterans? What is being done to help our citizens? |
The only debate is whether to measure the dead due to the loss of USAID in the thousands, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/31/opinion/rubio-usaid-africa.html While testifying before Congress, Rubio claimed that the Trump administration’s dismantling of the United States Agency for International Development had not cost any lives. “No children are dying on my watch,” he asserted. At another point in the hearing, he broadened his statement to include adults as well: “No one has died because of U.S.A.I.D.” This is ludicrous: The only debate is whether to measure the dead in the thousands, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. So let me help Rubio with the truth. Meet Evan Anzoo, a 5-year-old boy who was born with H.I.V. in South Sudan: I mentioned Evan in a column in March from South Sudan. This was a child as precious as yours or mine. Evan’s life was in our hands, and for five years America kept him alive with antiretroviral medicines costing less than 12 cents a day, through the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, or PEPFAR. This was a program started by President George W. Bush that has saved more than 26 million lives so far, and it turned the tide of AIDS around the world and built enormous good will toward the United States. Then along came President Trump and his freeze on most humanitarian aid in January. How could a 5-year-old orphan possibly obtain medicine on his own? Evan weakened and soon died of an opportunistic infection. If Rubio needs further reminder of the human toll, this little girl is Achol Deng, 8, who likewise died when she lost access to antiretrovirals because of the U.S.A.I.D. freeze. I share these photos of Evan and Achol because it strikes me as doubly offensive not only to cause unnecessary deaths of such children but also to deny these deaths and call them lies. The denials erase these children and dodge all responsibility. It was Elon Musk who first insisted that “no one has died.” Now Rubio has doubled down. When I reached out to Rubio to ask about the “lies” comment and the suggestion that no one had died, he declined to be interviewed. |
If these dead are not American citizens it is not a problem. Let the taxpayers of these other countries take care of their own people. |
I hope you don't call yourself a Christian. |
