It’s hard to defend sending billions of dollars in unaccountable fashion to Afghanistan, Yemen, Gaza and Somalia.

While USAID is unable to function in Iran, between Yemen, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq, over $8 billion was sent to Iranian puppet regimes even without counting the money spent on Gaza.

In total, USAID had spent some $18.5 billion on Islamic terror states over those 5 years.

USAID has sent $9.3 billion to Islamic terror states collectively responsible for killing over 3,000 American soldiers

What’s the counterargument to that?

FARMERS RUINED

“USAID oversees projects such as food aid, disaster relief and health programs in over 100 countries with a staff of more than 10,000 and a budget of around $40 billion. Billions of those dollars flowed back into the American economy.

Takeaway: Call your MAGA rep to demand they stop billionaires from destroying farmers to give themselves more tax cuts.

Now U.S. businesses that sold goods and services to USAID are in limbo. That includes American farms, which supply about 41 percent of the food aid that the agency, working with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, sends around the world each year, according to a 2021 report by the Congressional Research Service. In 2020, the U.S. government bought $2.1 billion in food aid from American farmers.

What will farmers do unless taxpayers pay for USAID to buy their wheat to send it to Somalia?

Maybe they’ll buy the wheat themselves. Or have people in other countries buy it. Wheat, rice and other crops actually are in demand. And if the government has to buy it, then it can use that to lower the price of bread here.

Worse still that 41% statistic admits that most of the USAID’s food isn’t even bought from America. It suggests we’re paying other countries to buy food to send to other countries.
