FYI

Seems this agency is so fraught with fraud that closing it and starting over is really the only alternative.

When billions in tax payer money has been wasted due to fraud, time to close it down.

This is really an insane take.

Not sure if you can see it - but if someone else had said this in 2024, you would have thought they were a nutter. That's not how our government works. We fix it, we don't close it.

The apathy of “this is how we have always done it”, got USAID in this mess. Change is scary but this is what progress looks like.

So far, there has been no hint of progress since January. Zero.

Tearing something down is easy. Building something new is hard. Apparently impossible.

Should have fixed it instead of destroying it. Anyone could have told them that.

Stopping the multi-billion dollar boondoggle that was USAID is progress.

yea, all that free money to farmers in red states.

I know Democrats are incapable of distinguishing citizens from foreign nationals. Still, farmers in the U.S. who feed us, are U.S. taxpayers and are more deserving of U.S. dollars than men in Mozambique who can't figure out basic sexual hygiene.

DP. As an independent, I'm amazed at Republican's wilful obtuseness when they disagree. Rather than making reasoned arguments, they attack and blather.

Exactly whom do you think all the food aid was purchased from?

Your maga brains have been rotted.

Those usaid funds basically fund farmers for usaid programs which send those farm products overseas. Those farmers arent feeding Americans.

Also those farmers are paying taxes on income from taxpayers.

Those farmers could go out of business and it would actually save taxpayers money from having to subsidize them, who again are in red states and more than likely vote R. How's that for fafo.

+1 MAGA ghouls would rather spend hundreds of billions in military aid to Egypt and Israel to support a neverending conflict in the Middle East rather than spend money on clearly documented food and medical aid to starving kids.

There was so much fraud and corruption there was no saving it.

When a place is so infested with vermin, it’s best to burn it down and start over.

Well put.

USAID was used to create protests and riots on demand to overthrow governments we didn't agree with, plain and simple.

Partly. (This is known as foreign policy, btw, and whether you agree or disagree, is not illegal or corrupt.) Then there's things like PEPFAR, etc. A decades-long success. Now gone.

Creating riots and color revolutions in other isn't corrupt or illegal? What about when you use the same template here at home?

It's only illegal if another country does it to the US obviously. Israel excluded though.

It's well known that democrats foment hate, discontent and riots between groups for power. It's called Cloward & Piven.

Oh, is that how you are explaining away the largest protest in US history? A peaceful protest?

All these alphabet soup organizations that operate in foreign countries are just extensions of US imperialism. USAID is no different.

Democrats don't have any credibility on the humanitarian issues.
