All non profits should be audited starting with churches! .. Audit “Hope of the Valley” in Ca!!!
The US government needs to be financially responsible and stop spending money on frivolous projects.
But $800,000 plane flights that could be 100k is okay with you right?
That's all Obama was doing while he was running Biden's term in office. Biden never ran the WH, although he was complicit. Hell, the man slept most of the time and barely knew where he was when he finally woke up. Go Trump!!!
@@0-0-0-2you think pilots get paid minimum wage? 100k wouldnt cover it
Let the Reverends Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson pitch in their millions until programs are reviewed.
oh, I'm sure they'll show up.
Good because the non-profits are not non-profits these guys are getting big salaries from this
🎯🎯
@@michaelpettengill4789 don't worry. Sounds like you're in good standing today. But it's coming for you Bro. And when it does, I don't wanna hear your whining and complaining. Good luck 👋🏾
Like domestic violence, orphans, homeless, veteran and child s*xual victim organizations?
I work for a non profit and we publish all of our financials for anyone to review. Noone is making a big salary. We just want to do good work and help people. Our funding that has already been approved and appropriated by Congress is also frozen.
Hope you like hungry, angry, homeless people living outside your house, your place of business and everywhere you like to spend time cause it's coming SOON if this isn't fixed.
@@toshiamartin6909 implying they werent already hanging out there
How about checking how many people are making six figures at these NON PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS
Damn…our government spends so much money to make sure people don’t work…no wonder we have so much debt
One of those was HIV housing. My question is if the rent is only paid till February where the hell is the rest of the money??? Somebody is pocketing it. It's obviously not going to the HIV / AIDS housing.

Love it!!!! Accountability, scrutiny and auditing for all these sketchy programs. Lots of crooks with mismanaged "grants". Wish they would send DOGE to PR

A million dollars is a lot of $$. Two million is even more, Audit Audit Audit let these groups need to put three financial logs where their mouths are.
They stealing the money and not providing services
@VallHolla-h6s you are absolutely correct a lot of them don’t provide adequate services in these programs and that is the idea of the freeze on funds is to wing out the bad guys from the good guys I believe the freeze was just for three months to investigate misuse of government funds and inappropriate spending , so I don’t see what the fuss is it’s just three months until the elimination starts from there who gets it and who don’t 🤔do somebody have something to hide .
Yolanda fields makes 120k working for a “non profit” 2 employees take more than 10% of the of the $2mil in salary alone
Exactly! Thank you!
Unreal smh
Exactly
Yep. She’s a crook.
What’s more odd in 2023 their “net fundraising” was -$157,943 while their executive compensation was $293,548 (2.1%) salary and other wages was $6,341,490 (46.2%) something seams off 🤔
CBS forgets that over half of Illinois voters voted for Trump.
Good! Clean house and audit.
Listen to the White House press conference in full to get clear information.
Yeah, that was clear as mud.
I can’t she’s actually braindead
Exactly. The press secretary is young but she's on fire and very smart!!
Defund non profit who help illegal immigrants 😊
No more migrant plane funds?
That’s not non profit. That full profit for the US
They love to protect the non-profits. These people are rich anyway.
reckless democrat spending has brought us to this
You’re so funny.
But Republican tax cuts for people making 100s of times more than any of these non profit leaders while shipping our jobs overseas or the defense contracts that spend in excess of 7000x more than the real value of the equipment they acquire (which is why they haven't passed an audit in 7 years) are shining beacons of fiscal responsibility in the interest of our citizens. How's lowering egg prices going?
@@BrotherDelirioushow about the billions sent to Ukraine and Israel? How those wars going?
Spending on healthcare is reckless… but tax cuts to billionaires isn’t? Boot licker

My name is Kevin S Willis I was born in Chicago Illinois I blame Obama because of that for all this chaos is happening 🇺🇲📃📜🕛🌍
@@KevinWillis-k1wbut Obama wasn’t the one who took the funding away. TRUMP DID

Oh people living off my tax dollars can't get to it
Did anyone else notice she said SS and Medicare. Those were not listed in the items blocked.
Purple Ivy Social Security, Medicare,Headstart, Rental Assistance,and a few more won't be affected.
@ I just figured that out. But thank you so much for your comment. I’m doing a deep dive into what Project 2025 has in store for Medicare, SS and SSDI. At least a judge put a stop on this freeze till Monday.
@@purpleivy9174 Has nothing to do with that!
Confirmed, it's not going to effect, Medicare, social security or food stamps
Right, but it was being reported that SNAP, TANF, and WIC were being frozen. I think the blowback of freezing these programs 3 days before people were due to get these monthly benefits people use to feed themselves and their children was intense, and Trump decided to pretend like he never included them in the list.
I called my State Senator’s office. They’d just helped me get in touch with the Board of Social Services here, because for some reason my yearly renewal has to include a phone interview, and the document they sent with the date & time somehow had my phone number wrong. I couldn’t get anyone on the phone, but if I miss the call, I lose my benefits. The phone call benefit review is tomorrow, so I was calling to find out if that was still going to happen. The staffer said to assume it was and she also said she was going to figure out what was going on. Apparently, state governments, who administer programs like SNAP, even though they’re federally funded, weren’t informed of the freeze.
Thank God for the blocks
We all know they skim off the top.
I did outreach for Washington Heights Corner Project in Manhattan. Scrutiny is needed. Half of all of these things are money grabs or helping people spiciest should demand help themselves first.
Individual's benefits are 'safe' from the funding freeze, but how will the benefits be paid if the agencies that deliver the benefits have their funding frozen?
@@MaggieLawlor bingo! That's the loophole
They had listed individual benefits like SNAP, TANF, WIC, etc. in the initial announcement. I don't trust it. I’m on SSD, glad that’s safe (for now) but I’m certainly not prepared to not get my SNAP benefits on February 1st. But I have to assume that’s what’s happening, until told otherwise.
@@michele9890 pay attention and read what it really means!! Hello!
@@kellycurran4608 care to explain it to us??
@paradoxical_taco if you paid attention to the press secretary today, she clearly says , benefits will be paid., we get SS.. not worried
NO federal dollars to cities non-compliant with federal policies! PERIOD!
That’s not how democracy works

Why are we paying rent for HIV patients? Are we paying rent for people with cancer or diabetes? How are they different than any other person afflicted with any disease?

Who’s accounting for all the mismanagement from the current administration?
Trump is doing what we elected him to do. America is coming back.
lol. Actually America is about to fall off a cliff. Trump's base is not the most intelligent so they cannot see what's ahead with all this chaos. Keep going though.
Coming back to the Stone Age, sure boot licker
Trump just put the nation on the Dave Ramsey road to financial freedom. Rice and beans, beans and rice baby!
Well he didn’t put everyone on that. The Americans that have been on that will hopefully no longer have to within the year
Calling it nonprofit is kinda like a jumbo shrimp, right?

Only 40% of Americans pay taxes. We need tariffs. It should be 90% paying taxes.

So much advances have made for HIV; they way the media represents it its like living with a chronic disease; why aren't these individual working; I understand that some may be very sick but I am sure that many can go to work.
Good, lol. They can all pat themselves on the back😂
Let the states keep their money and use it as they see fit.
Did anyone else notice that with all the 20 billion dollars the HIV housing rent is only paid till February? With 20 million you would think it would be paying it for a year or more. Who's pocketing the money???
They do pay for more than year but they pay the landlord monthly and draw down the money monthly it's a best practice to ensure federal dollars are spent on what they are being given for
biden/admin spent trillions on craziness!
Not frivolous spending.... Housing people with HIV isn't frivolous? They can work just like anyone else. Why do they get anything for a sickness that is contracted through personal sexual endeavors. Less than 10% of people with HIV get it through parental transmission. So why do people who caused their own problems get help but I'm struggling because my pay is taxed for people like this and I get nothing

What country has the highest debt?
United States. The United States boasts both the world's biggest national debt in terms of dollar amount and its largest economy, which resolves to a debt-to GDP ratio of approximately 121.31%. The United States' government's spending exceeds its income most years, and the US has not had a budget surplus since 2001.
Have you considered whether our defense department that can't pass an audit while paying defense contractors 1000s of times more for equipment than it's real value has more to do with our debt than the non-profit/DEI boogeyman?
