You can't bring back those children who have already died. We can do our best to make sure as few die as possible though. This is a crime against humanity not a mission to cut waste. Nuremburg will repeat for America.

People who don't understand foreign aid also would never understand why it is good for your own house to help your neighborhood.

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social Don't you think the damage *is* the goal? Inflict trauma to do we don't stand up to them?

This is absolutely infuriating that they can do this to innocent helpless people.

Providing aid: In Matthew 25:35-40, Jesus says that when we help those who are hungry, thirsty, strangers, naked, sick, or imprisoned, we serve Him. “Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” MAGA needs to see Jesus serving them.

If Musk wanted to crack down on fraud he’d have had accountants not software geeks.

These are the moves that will make continue to make China the world’s greatest nation. Many people in China already refer to Trump as Chaun Jianguo “Trump the Nation Builder”. They call him this because he continues to make China stronger by undermining American interests.

THIS is the point and purpose of most of Trump's dangerous, unconstitutional EO's - to destroy America, all USA Trade & Military allies, NATO; to turn all developing nations against Trump/USA - now sadly synonymous; just as Putin planned for corrupt, extorted puppet traitor Trump from the beginning.

you don't know about the waivers for this stuff? and you post ignorance and lies anyway? no wonder you got fired. cry more.

But the right doesn’t care. Cruelty is their driving force.

Trump don’t care about others. That’s the problem. He only think of what fits his agenda AND make him more powerful.

Not to "own the libs," but to protect Elno Musk. USAID was investigating him before he tried to shutdown the organization. www.newsweek.com/usaid-elon-m...

Mr. Kinzinger do you think it will be stupid of Dems to vote to give FARMERS WELFARE CHECK because of Orange terd's actions? @democrats.org @padems.org

All of this seems like a strange act for someone who claims to be concerned about the decrease of the world's population. He sure is doing what he can to kill as many people as possible.

They don’t care.

#MyWorldisntSaferWhenOthersSuffer

You’re the one with low information. What do you do, read the New York Times? Facts don’t care about your feelings. How did you become so intolerant? And intolerable?

Does anyone you served with have an ethical bone in their body?

Your fellow Republicans have done several things that will take a generation or more to fix. I mean we're basically in 1968 all over again....

This is a second way farmers get hit

How is it that theoretical conservatives forgot that spending a few bucks on improving under developed nations prevents big bucks being spent on our borders. This used to be a no brainer. Probably has something to do with orange guy wanting to shoot folks in the leg at the border For shame 🤦‍♀️😢

Thank you. I've been wanting information about how important USAID is and some specifics to what it does.

Whoever? Putin and Musk

And they are cheering it now!!

God is watching and rump and suck will pay

For a miniscule amount of savings, a nod & a wink to China to just move into the vacuum, we leave behind. Incredibly stupid, but hey, we have known for a long time, trump & maga are as dumb as a bag of rocks.

Hope we can salvage the goods waiting to be shipped and let it rot. It’s time for the farmers to rise up and protest in a major way. They are hugely impacted by this !!!💙🦋💙🦋💙

Thank you. I did 2 tours in Helmand Province, and the things the local farmers appreciated most had nothing to do with guns.

Democrats are idiots and Jeffries is worthless! He thinks God will save us from this while God's ALLEDGED chosen can't kill more babies without my tax dollars not mentioned once in any religious text or their precious Bible!! YAWNING 👌 IDIOTS!

Trumusk and their handlers are stupid, but pretty effective in creating chaos.

Good article , Thanks !

Totally agree what he’s already done will take years to fix

II thought these people were christians. Isn't this what Jesus taught us to do? If they don't grasp that why don't they understand that helping people in need may result them thinking more kindly of us.

That's exactly what will happen.

I suspect that a lot of things they do are going to create long-term damage. I bet our enemies are ecstatic.

Combine this decapitation of efforts to build goodwill towards the U.S. around the world with DT's open plan to commit genocide by ethnically cleansing Palestinians from Gaza (and probably the West Bank too) and you've created DECADES of enemies/terrorists that are going to target the U.S.

The key to your statement, couldn't be reversed for a generation. What he is tearing down in days will take years to be rebuilt.

And yeah, USAID also invests in life-saving and critical economic empowerment projects, but any claim that USAID is full of Marxists is absolute shit conjured by illegitimate reactionaries who have no basis for dismantling a very positive American program.

Americans have learned the hard way too often with ultimate sacrifices that being big and successful on a world stage puts a target on you, and otherwise little problems can spiral into bigger problems that impact Americans. Extending soft power to win allies is cheap compared to defense spending.

Summing up. These people have no Christian values and no insight into how the world perceives the US.

Seeing a pattern... Any monies being spent on programs with the word "aid" or "care" or "security" are being threatened: Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security Ditto for any programs that protect like Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Department of Education, Department of Labor, etc.

This is endangering our national security, as most of the countries affected will turn to China

What a disgrace

they dont WANT a world of good

They endanger THEIR families as well as ours. This is reprehensible and stupid typical Trump.

In Australia many call it boomerang aid...for good reason. Both sides benefit.

A continued USAID would only hurt China (forget Russia, Europe's biggest loser) and possibly the traitor Musk who obviously colludes with enemy nation China.

The majority of republicans know this and would have said so a month ago. Now they parrot talking Trump without taking their own brains.

Exactly!

👍🏼👏🏼💙💙💙

American farmers had better speak up before planting season!

It's truly sickening and stupid. A review that is meant to improve them might make sense but this is just cruel and crazy.

It will be a beautiful green piece of property for them.😊

Unfortunately it won't be that limited. Terrorists usually want to make a splash, but they also take the long view. Look at what happened to Salman Rushdie.

Feels like everything he does is about owning the libs. Well done America

I feel immense sadness for my grandkids. He has also created an entire generation of terrorists that will hate the US

I can't afford to subscribe on SS and Medicare. I am supporting Florida canadates and Lincoln Project.

Cruz is a tool. He knows they can’t release the Diddy files. The case hasn’t gone to trial. Stop putting this stuff into the ecosphere.

They released some of the Epstein files. The part where trump and Epstein were arguing over who would rape a tied down 13yr old girl (virgin) and tfg did it and slapped her and said she wasn’t any good after all. That’s the way I remember it anyway. This is what he’s doing to this country as well.

“own the libs” is all they got and unfortunately too many voters respond to that. Remember that was the Tea Party MO also. What did you all achieve? Aside from making ok to attack a president’s lineage with no basis in fact.

China will take full advantage of that. You know they will. The consequence: more nations will buy Chinese not American.

Russia. Ever since the 1970s Trump has been Putin's boy. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Links_b... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021... time.com/4433880/dona...

Yes!!!! They all took an oath to uphold the law and our Constitution, but they're just sitting there letting Trump and his cabinet destroy our country and shred the Constitution.

All GOPQ Senators voted for Kennedy .. a fruitcake who will end up making us all sick. No hope for your wish to come true. I'm sorry.

OMG. This is awesome

Elon Musk and his goons are RAPING this country for their own profit and pleasure.

USAID has a fully transparent policy Download it from the archive site The main site is stripped This also shows their REAL goals to counteract BS 2017-2020.usaid.gov/open

🎯

Not to state the obvious, but...empathy and compassion are not part of Trump's genetic code.

Inspiring to see you’re still fighting the good fight.

Why do they have engineers looking into everything? If they’re looking for fraud shouldn’t it be forensic accountants?

Good way to provoke terrorist attacks in the US though, amirite!

Each of these people have mortgages, kids, taxes, cars and insurance, all the things people need. Even local diner. Losing 2 contract in a small town will be devasting. Local impact will be huge Hundreds are affected by just one contract. These are the people we need to reach.

Or a brain.

None of this is good

Watch for the grift

Yeah. It’s like Drumpf’s the President of HIMSELF instead of the US. 🤔

corbettreport.com/usaid-is-a-d...

And somehow they would manage to blame Biden for that damage.

Incredibly short sighted

Wait till Ebola gets here in, what, fifteen minutes?

Adam, what is it that makes your constituents move away from you, and toward a Trump lackey? Give up? The media. They spew his garbage and show his disgusting face at every turn. Citizen's United is the other major problem in my estimation. Until that is handled in a meaningful way, we're fucked

Thanks for reminding us. This is one of the travesties of the Cretin Administration. My father used to work for USAID, the good they do throughout the world is incomparable. Another example of President Musk and his Orange Oompa-Loompa causing long-term damage in the world and giving China a leg up.

🤬

The way these (so called) "America First" Republicans are weakening the USA's standing on the world stage is quite bizarre to me. Surely they understand the ramifications of what they're doing... which leads me to believe that they don't give a shit.

The Republicans have become the party of CRUELTY , PAIN ,FEAR AND LIES

ELON MUSK OFFER NO HELP AND WE SEE NO BLACK FRIENDS. Apartheid is a system of racial segregation in South Africa that began in 1948 after the National Party won the elections. The system was enforced by the all-white government and TRAGICALLY remains in place today. (see most recent photos.

It’s the community. People don’t know the hungry child a world away, or a budget line item. But they know their neighbors.

True that a GoP never cares about something until they realize it's hurting themselves. Then all bets are off

I hate that we're on the defense. We don't need to defend USAID. Musk's actions are illegal and he should be prosecuted, period. If I burn down a bank, no one is going to write articles about what the bank did wrong or right. They're going to be talking about me and the crime I committed.
