Sir, you have to be sincere with yourself, Trump never claim that 50 million was used but rather it was "intended to be used" which he blocked. Get your information right at all times. You've been parading false information for weeks now, it's disgusting!!!

IjeBos and fake News

You mean the condoms that never existed that Trump said Hamas used to make bombs?
You might want to tell Trump the money was never used.
When all you know is propaganda you will always make an ass out of yourself.

How is he supposed to know when no one knows? that is why Trump is draining the swamp. Trump 1.0 appointed the swamp and he is not making the same mistake this time which is why you are not seeing leaks left and right. I don't think anyone would be getting book deals this time.

you are a bootlicker so continue playing dumb

Blah Blah Blah
God you're a dumbass.
Look at the dumb questions you ask.
Maybe if you picked up US Government for Dummies book you'd know how Rubio would know.
Too stupid to even know how Stupid you sound.

That's why all this asinine juvenile propaganda works on you.
Tell me more about how the US sent 50 million to GAZA for condoms.

bemeruca:
at 52 years you still be mumu. He praised it before just like people were praising Sam Bankman Freid before they realized he is stealing people's money and gambling with it as he donated to democrats.

With the information surfacing i doubt he is going to praise USAID again.

You're too stupid to even understand what USAID does or the purpose of the programs as it relates to US foreign policy or US soft Power.
As if Marco Rubio who was a senior member of the Foreign Relations Committee didn't' know what kind of programs USAID ran.
Go sit in your corner, suck your thumb and continue to lie about living in the US or whatever state you are lying about living in now.

Who the fuk are you to even pretend you have some knowledge on this?
You should spend your time learning how to speak and write English before opening your mouth to me again.

Here is Marco Rubio talking about the importance of foreign aid and USAID. (starts at the 1:15 mark).
In fact in 2022 he sent a letter to Joe Biden saying he should increase the USAID budget.
Well until he became a Trump sycophant. (Kinda like Raumdeuter when he used to call Trump a racist.)

I wish I could say I'm shocked at the deviousness of his hypocrisy and lying. But I can't.

Isn't this what I was saying about the extremism of the Dems? They used this NGO to push an agenda, so far left that they couldn't even survive in an ordinary environment.

Now they've hibernated or shut down.

Did they even help any black community to overcome their pertinent challenges, I don't think so.

The Dems just need to do a soul search, review the issues that cost them and then align themselves to the more moderate then the mid-term will favour them. I want them to have the house or senate to check mate Trump. He shouldn't have too much power to continue on this path.

I am beginning to dislike the rate at which Trump drops EOs, so many look too personal and short sighted in my opinion.

You are so out of your depth and sound like it.

Panama's President calls Trump and Rubio liars.

Some of the alleged line items in the USAID spending package funded by US tax payers

- $2 million for Moroccan pottery classes
- $2 million promoting tourism to Lebanon
- $20 million for a Sesame Street show in Iraq
- Sending Ukranians to Paris Fashion Week
- $1.5 million for DEI in Serbia
- $70,000 for a DEI musical in Ireland
- $47,000 for a transgender opera in Colombia
- $32,000 for a transgender comic book in Peru
- $2 million for sex changes in Guatemala
- $6 million for tourism in Egypt
- $1 million to help disabled people in Tajikistan become climate leaders
- $15 million for 'contraceptives and condoms’ in Taliban-Controlled Afghanistan

From Elon's propaganda to your mouth.
You're a useful idiot indeed.

Undeterred, as the administration’s campaign against the U.S. Agency for International Development intensified, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters this week that USAID spent $70,000 on a production of a DEI musical in Ireland, $47,000 on a transgender opera in Colombia and $32,000 on a transgender comic book in Peru . She called the expenditures “crap.”
In reality, USAID hadn’t spent any money on any of these things.

But ey,
All part of that Fake Life of yours.

How do you spell clusterfuck? T-R-U-M-P

Trump and Musk told people to resign, but now won't let them until may because they deem their work "Essential".
Maybe just maybe someone could have taken time to figure out what Federal Employees are actually "Essential".
Either way Lawsuits incoming and it'll be US Taxpayer money that will be sued to settle all this illegality.

I know a bunch of people who work in this space.
Brilliant people who could have made a lot more money in corporate America but decided to sacrifice in order to make the world better and help others.
I feel bad for them and the sudden upheaval their lives will face.

There is going to be a special place in Hell for Trump and his acolytes.

Wow! So the condom saga was a lie? Interesting

Doesn't make sense in the 1st place.

Yeah, seemed specious when I heard it a week ago.
So, did some digging and it was a lie.
It's been a week so surprised people are still spreading it.

From the 2023 Budget
-USAID didn't even spend that much on condoms in all it's programs. Only 7 million was spent in all of 2023.
-None of that money was used for condoms in GAZA or the Middle East
-And the insane part of people in this thread parroting that lie is that 89% of the money went to programs in Africa.

According to a comprehensive report issued in September by the US Agency for International Development (USAid), not a penny of the $60.8m in contraceptive and condom shipments funded by the US in the past year went to Gaza. In fact, the accounting shows, there were no condoms sent to any part of the Middle East, and just one small shipment, $45,680 in oral and injectable contraceptives, was sent to the region, all of it distributed to the government of Jordan.

For the financial year 2023, the most recent for which data is available, only about $7m worth of condoms were distributed globally by USAid, and the vast majority of family-planning funds, 89%, were spent on programs in Africa.

That seems to be the Trump administrations motto.

US immigration is gaming Google to create a mirage of mass deportations

Thousands of press releases about decade-old enforcement actions topped search results, all updated with a timestamp from after Trump’s inauguration

News of mass immigration arrests has swept across the US over the past couple of weeks. Reports from Massachusetts to Idaho have described agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) spreading through communities and rounding people up. Quick Google searches for Ice operations, raids and arrests return a deluge of government press releases. Headlines include “ICE arrests 85 during 4-day Colorado operation”, “New Orleans focuses targeted operations on 123 criminal noncitizens”, and in Wisconsin, “ICE arrests 83 criminal aliens”.

But a closer look at these Ice reports tells a different story.

That four-day operation in Colorado? It happened in November 2010. The 123 people targeted in New Orleans? That was February of last year. Wisconsin? September 2018. There are thousands of examples of this throughout all 50 states – Ice press releases that have reached the first page of Google search results, making it seem like enforcement actions just happened, when in actuality they occurred months or years ago. Some, such as the arrest of “44 absconders” in Nebraska, go back as far as 2008.

It's not a lie per se The fact that USAID is paying for politico propaganda should worry you.

Lies and the Liars who tell them.

Who else paid for Politico Pro?
None other than Lauren Boebert.
I guess she is part of the fraud and deep state as well.

We are living in the dumbest timeline.
Manufactured rage every day all the time.

We are living in the dumbest timeline.
The money to Politico was for Politico Pro which is a service that tracks legislation.

However, in reality, that money appears to come from Politico Pro subscriptions, which are targeted at business executives, lobbyists, and government workers, and cost more than $10,000 each. It also was the total amount of money from all government agencies, not just USAID. The service tracks legislation, votes, and lawsuits, and includes niche reporting and analysis about news from within the federal government.

Right-wing commentators then found what they claimed was evidence that USAID funneled money to the Associated Press, although much of that is due to syndication agreements between the AP and government media outlets such as Voice of America.

Livelystone01:
I'm against the deceptive nature of the US media with words to brainwash their people. Things like lobbying, terrorists or rebels are used however they like to further their interests. Example is the "lobbying and lobbyists", this is pure corruption coated in grammar to deceive people. It is the same thing done in other countries that they cal corruption.

It is also important to understand that the corruption is both from the GOP and DNC candidates. Both sides are united in voting for things that increase their pockets as seen in years.

This DOGE agency, however good intentions they may have, their leaking to the public things they do not truly understand will only inflame people and allies to be very careful with the US.

There are so many shades of wrongs in this saga.

That you think Elon Musk has good intentions in what he is doing is mystifying.
It's the same elon MUsk and DOGE that leaked the lie that Palestine got 40 million for condoms.

This is a feature of Trump and Elon, not a bug.
The goal is to inflame public sentiment with information they know to be suspect at best because they don't expect people to do their own research.

What's surprising is that you, Mr. Middle seemed unaware of it and are just noticing it now.
Better late than never I guess.

You seem to be stupid to do your own research and instead parrot whatever conspiratorial bullshit you see online.
How you even put your pants on in the morning is beyond me.

You don't wake people pretending to be asleep. We are talking about people more upset Elon Musk is exposing USAID theft than the actual fraud and crime itself

That's like someone angry at CCTV camera instead of the bank robber

She was truly a airhead DEI candidate through and through

You don't know what is being exposed.
All you know is what Elon Musk puts on his Instagram account.
There can be fraud, but no one knows that.
That's the problem with where we are today.
People take everything for verified fact, without any verification or facts.

Elon also said 40 million dollars went to Hamas for condoms. That was a lie.

Maybe because it's the same kind of thing you do, try to convince everyone you live in the US.

But what is up with you guys pretending to be things you are not to make your case?

ObaIgwe1:
I am surprise many are not seeing all these implications of Trump's actions. Some are even hailing him (smh).

If Trump messed up America's image, it will take a long while for the coming Presidents to rebuild it.

And we are just in his 1st month in office...

The distrust he's building is going to take a long time to repair.
And in this new multipolar world, we may not ever repair it.

People fall back on jingoisms and don't think through the policy implications.
People are aghast that the US is giving out HIV treatments to developing countries through things like USAID but don't think about the multiplier effect of that money in perceptions of the US in those places and thus on US policy, regional or business interests.

ObaIgwe1:
UK, Germany, China, Iran, Turkey & Saudi Arabia Reject Palestinians Displacement

What will Trump do now? Make another round of phone calls and explained how he was misunderstood, then spin the whole story and claim the rest of the world have agreed to is original intents and then his MAGAs score him a point again.

Trump is talking before thinking and by so doing ridiculing himself and the office he occupies.

Worse than that, Trump single handedly has cost the US the moral authority it has spent decades vocalizing/propagandizing.

Trump and the US's claim to authority now seems to be Might is right. Tearing up negotiated Trade deals, threatening countries over land, etc.etc.
It's the same authority Russia used to invade Ukraine, Israel uses in the Middle East and China will undoubtedly use in Taiwan.
Goodbye Rule Based International Order.
The world is going to get a lot more irrational and more dangerous for US citizens.

This is the reason US Presidents study voraciously, don't run their mouths in public and read off of prepared remarks with decisions that scores of people have been briefed on previously.

Livelystone01:
I'm laughing so hard at the conversation between you both on these issues. The reason is because I stood for those, said the Dems became too extreme in their policies and all that but it was called a centrist bs lol.

One thing I have learned to do is to give time to issues. It naturally plays out that when someone's right, time will redirect everything to his path.

During the last campaign, I told my wife something. I said, the Dems are doing the mistake Trump made in 2020.

In 2020, Trump focused on some issues that became scary for the neutral voters who thought he was pandering to only his base and it was costly. These neutrals had to tilt towards Biden and the Dems. In the run-up to the last election, the Dems became too extreme with the same extremism that became scary for the neutral voters in the past that they had to vote for Trump. It is important to note that the neutrals in every election are more than supporters of parties. They are the true deciders of elections. Over-pander to a direction and they are gone to the other side.

What did the Dems do after they lost? They began an online war against men, blacks and minorities who voted for Trump. Like they have been in the last 4 years, no convincing, only bullying to make sure you fall in line. Some said they won't have sex in the next 4 years, I wonder if they still hold on to that now.

It was so with the media. How they hounded lots of people who spoke against the system. Why fight opposing voices to the extent of cancelling them or using the social media to block their views if you aren't scared?
It was clearer when Zuckerberg said he would have done things differently now than before. Bezos was attacked for saying his media platform would stay out of picking a side few weeks to the election.

The COVID-19 mandate was so poor. You are a party of my body my choice but you hate the fact that someone was against a vaccine that has an agreement tied to it that whatever happens is not on the company. People were sacked for taking their stand against the vaccine. My question is, where did COVID-19 go at this point? Has it gone completely? Let's just forget the crap talk of herd immunity because most African countries didn't take the vaccine yet they got the same results of herd immunity.

Is it about the LGBTQXYZ issue? How will you allow a child to choose a gender but stop that same child from voting? If he's too young to have a better decision with voting why will that child be too old to choose something as delicate as gender change? Let's not forget the issue of trans in sports. Women were cancelled for speaking out. It even happened to Chimamanda whose event in Germany was cancelled because she spoke for women and they thought she was against Trans. The issue of school having more right than parents about the gender issue of their own children was also another extreme one.

There were lots of things that happened that were extreme, but the media in cohort with the previous administration made them look ordinary. Why will something ordinary cause you to lose an election if it was truly ordinary?

Lastly, the Dems do not try to convince people, they bully. I have seen it here. Imagine you have 4 years to convince a MAGA but you constantly called him names for picking a side, now he voted for same person because he didn't see you different from him.
Make I just stop here.

The above being said, I still think there are some things Trump shouldn't be touching at this point. He's becoming too extreme in my point of view.

Like I said, I will condemn him when he pushes off and I will support his policy when I see it's right for everyone. It doesn't make me a MAGA, I stand as a centrist bs if that's the tag now.

Why do you try so hard to convince other people you are a centrist or neutral or whatever you call it?
If you didn't see the inherent danger of who Trump was you were MAGA all the way.
Just put the red cap on and be at peace with yourself.

No it pays my employer A proposal we had made in private hasn't gone through.
USAID is part of my employer's donors, not the largest though but significant . The west in reality plays a good role in charitable causes.
I have often said America is esp a force of good ,I would never want China to replace the west.I have serious beef with China.
When you see me writing so much about America and Europe ,it's because I don't want liberals destroying their nations under globalism .UK especially God bless FCDO.

They should study your brain.

Your company is aided by USAID.
You think the US plays a good role in Charitable causes.
USAID is a big arm of that.
USAID is championed by liberals and was just shut down by Trump.
But you support Trump because you want to prevent liberals from destroying the nation so the US can continue to be a global force for good through things like USAID instead of China.
But Trump just killed USAID and wants less money going to things outside the US like aid and charitable causes.
Because of that China will now fill that role.

My brain hurts just thinking through that.
Yours must hurt anytime you try to think with all the cognitive dissonance in it.

cococandy:
Literally everyone but pro-Trumpers saw this coming.

Because they have no pattern recognition abilities.
If you told them this was going to happen based on his past exhibitions of narcissism and lack of empathy, they’d have argued until they were blue in the face.

Right!

Surprising none of them have mentioned it.
I'm sure they are waiting to figure out how to spin it.

So in 2 weeks

Let's start a war in Gaza to own it
Let's start a war with Greenland to own it
War with Panama to own the Panama Canal
Economic War with Canada
Economic War with Mexico
Let's start an Economic War with the EU
all while closing down USAID and all the soft diplomacy it provided around the world.

I'm sure I'm missing some.

Trump just said he wants to send US troops to GAZA so he can remove the Palestinians, rebuild it and own it.
Holy Shit!!!

The US tried so hard to not project the image they we were fighting Afghanistan or Iraq to own it and here our Dumbass in Chief gives US enemies the propaganda they need.

And he was talking about ending endless wars.
Holy Shit.

Everyday something comes out that shocks me more.
Rubio is negotiating with Venezuela to take in US citizens who are imprisoned.

“We have offered the United States of America the opportunity to outsource part of its prison system,” Mr. Bukele wrote on X, saying his government was willing to take in convicted criminals, including U.S. citizens, for a fee. “The fee would be relatively low for the U.S. but significant for us, making our entire prison system sustainable.”

IMAliyu2:
The reason people have come to have issues with "wokeness" is because of the coordinated campaign by the rightwing to demonize it and attribute anything they don't like to it,
As well as the fact that liberals were almost entirely focused on social issues without addressing any of the material anxiety, or class disparities the majority of people were feeling, making the whole topic of diversity and representation feel disingenuous.
Like Disney race swapped a character (something no one was really asking for), that's cool and all, but what are we going to about the growing homelessness issues in liberal run Cities?

I don't think this is fair.
I think Republicans successfully elevated wedge issues to give the perception that Dems were solely focused on those social issues.
But at the end of the day as people will learn, those wedge issues the Republicans ran on won't really address any of the more complex disparity issues because Republicans have few policies to address it and the issues are complex on their own.

Dems spend a lot of time trying to legislate and not so much of it explaining or propagandizing what they have done/

As to the the homelessness it's a tough one.
The success of any place means prices rise esp. housing.
So how do you successfully house people who don't have housing where some of them are mentally ill without also creating a situation where you have people coming into your state just for that housing?
Do you arrest them? Is that fair esp. if someone is mentally ill. And does that not add to the costs?
Boston has been dealing with this issue for years and I think that goes to the fact that they are trying to deal with it a way that is fair.
