90% graft and 10% aid. Criminal thieves.
You're giving them far too much credit.
@@GarySmithey Let them be deleted./
I don’t remember voting for this…
@@Blindstoic What did you vote for?
That's grift!
Democrats piggybank just got broken.
Bowl full of worms
Unfortunately, it's just one of many piggybanks they've created over the years.
Imagine the audacity to think the USA owes illegal immigrants.
WOW....INSANITY
USAID resisted congressional overnight. It is time for accountability.
Correction: congressional oversight.
Makes one wonder what they are hiding? 🤔
@@brianfitzpatrick1183 EVERYTHING!
The oligarchs can support USAID, not the tax payers
Bloomberg has taken over the climate activism. Hence he can takeover USAID and can continue the AID on behalf of US.
lets ask newsom and nancy. oh, AOC too.
USAID is $50 BILLION WASTE ... its time to SHUT IT DOWN !
George sorros backs the dems.. let him do it..
In America waving a Mexican flag?????? Are they saying that they want to go back.
ISNT THAT TREASON? INSURRECTION? MUST BE SOMETHIN NOT GOOD
USAID is over. We are too far in debt to keep sending aid to other countries when aid is not even given to those in great need in America!
It was never getting to those in need of aid.
USAID is $50 BILLION WASTE ... its time to SHUT IT DOWN !
... give it to the U.S. Veterans, give it to the American Students, give it to AMERICANS , PERIOD !!!
It's not aid...it's a funding pool for the CIA to push their agenda around the world.
Why is the USAID so secretive?
Because it’s a criminal organization they destroy Haiti I believe they supported and sponsored anti government protests against any president which trying to change the country for the better.
because of the private bank accounts where 95% of the aid money actually ends up.
It's how the crooks in our government launders money
Surmise……
@@hapwyatt4550I'm not sure about that. Either Rubio or a current congressman (I can't remember at the moment) said just today that they've flat out refused to account for themselves TO CONGRESS.
I’m thrilled about USAID. Break it up. Shut it down. Figure out another way to donate. Privately. Taxpayers shouldn’t be funding pet projects or corruption.
USAID is $50 BILLION WASTE ... its time to SHUT IT DOWN !
Until we get our own countries finances under control and our own citizens are doing well, we have no business donating to other countries!
Why borrow money to give to other countries?
Good question. They put us the tax payers on debt to pay foreigners. Would you do that to help a stranger?
Because we get leverage on other government
so we’re printing money and we’re gonna receive printed money from other , the irony
I think it's safe to say we finally have a president who's sick of the fraud and waste and of being taken advantage of and I, for one, APPRECIATE IT.
He's sick of the fraud but he's been committing FRAUD AND LYING ABOUT THAT FRAUD FOR THE LAST 50 YRS and he's a convicted FELONY!!! HE AND HIS FAMILY ARE IN THIS FOR THE GRIFT!! 🔊WAKE UP IN STEP INTO REALITY!!👀
Really?
@@kristenpino4635trump 2028
We are on the same page, Goldie!!!
me too!!
Should send ICE to the protest.
Shut USA ID down the American people need the money more
Not an American flag in sight at that "protest."
Most of these protesters have never really made an effort to assimilate into American society. I use to work with many Mexican people who had grandmothers born in the U.S. that had never learned to speak English. They want the benefits of living in the U.S., but still want to live in a Mexican society/culture. Always see themselves as Mexican, before they see themselves as Americans.
Rights like protesting, are only extended to American CITIZENS in this country, Americans cant even protest in other countries or theyll lose their passport. And go to prison.
Imagine going to mexico or china or Afghanistan, and waving an American flag, refusing to leave and burning their countries flag.
@@leapinlizard9487therin lies the rub.
The gravy train is derailed!!!
USAID is $50 BILLION WASTE ... its time to SHUT IT DOWN !
... give it to the U.S. Veterans, give it to the American Students, give it to AMERICANS , PERIOD !!!
Amen😊
McDonald is hiring!
Show us where the money went
God bless Trump🇺🇸
This is cleaning out the swamp.
President Trump, please shutdown the NED also.
Best news I’ve heard in decades!
we need to STOP ALL FOREIGN AID.....TARRIF EVERY COUNTRY.....ABOLISH THE IRS.......THIS IS HOW OUR COUNTRY USED TO BE AND WE WERE 100% BETTER OFF........
USAID is $50 BILLION WASTE ... its time to SHUT IT DOWN !
... give it to the U.S. Veterans, give it to the American Students, give it to AMERICANS , PERIOD !!!
Tariffs make the common person pay more, you fool.
Woohoo no more $50 million a week to the Talliban
In a study not so long ago, was found that most donations for aid institutions, as UNICEF, were use to pay expenses with high ranked officials. Just a small percentage reached the target people. Just check the fleet of new Land Cruisers the Red Cross had in Gaza.
I'm old enough to remember "Trick or Treat for UNICEF". Do they even do that scam anymore?
They are still using the photos of those emaciated children taken in somalia, and Ethiopia, around 1990, those 1990 photos are still used as click bait to siphon out the money.
Unicef does not fund the Red Cross.......... oh boy
That is true like red cross paid their CEO 500,000 a year. And they are now saying only 10% of donations go out anyways. That's ridiculous. Funds and foundations should only use 10% and the rest needs to go toward the cause with receipts and proof
@@Starli7777 You seem to have no idea what the Red Cross is doing.
Shut it down!! 😮
Thank you Mr Rubio
Needs to be totally rebuilt, with checks and balances and 100% transparency to the US citizens.
That should save 300 million a year just in wages.
Shutting down usaid is some of the best news ive ever heard in my lifetime
It Has NOTHING to do with Aid. Look it up
Thank you!!! They just believe whatever the news put out!!!
Who's going to fund the coups now?
The problem is, that only ten percent of the money earmarked for aid, is actually reaching the purpose it was intended.
Been the case since the 60s with entire cargos full of food, clothing, medicines, via PeaceCorp and other nonprofits going to corrupt foreign officials family frkends supporters military....
Probably less than that.
YUP...IT MAKES AN IMMEDIATE UTURN AND ENDS UP IN THE HANDS OF DISHONEST FOLKS
Purposes like atheism in tibet, and trans comic books in Afghanistan......heavy pass on the rest too.
The only thing USAID "developed" were new ways to finance dark ops.
Bravo ..transparency where goes my money?
Pay attention to those that try to STOP oversight of tax payer $$ and how it is being spent. Open the books and let's see where the money is GOING.
Open the books to someone who isn't a federal government employee, someone who doesn't have a secret security clarence?? 🔊WAKE UP AND CHECK INTO REALITY!!👀🤔🚩
this is only the tip of the iceberg.. I hope DOGE looks into the pentagon too, but the last time they were investigated we got 9-11
Wow, well hopefully that won't happen this time around. We have a smarter president than we did back then. And as Americans we are wiser than we were 24 years ago.
Go Musk , Go Trump
US Agency International Development.
Not an "Aid" Agency.
Read: the CIA's covert influence tenticals
Every drop fills the bucket
I want to know where my money goes .
NEXT
America is healing ❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂 HEALING FROM WHAT YOU SOUND RIDICULOUS AND FOOLISH!!🤑🤑🤑 SEEK HELP!!🚑
@@lynn8796Elon and Vance 2028
you leave out the MOST important point, USAID would NOT let anyone look at he books! they say it non of our business!, Its Tax payer money we want to know how it is being spent!
Drain that swamp😁.
Keep that same attitude when you at at the REGISTER PAYING FOR YOUR GROCERIES!!👀🤔🚩
Absolutely crazy times we are living in.
Yes, because the Biden era was perfectly normal times.
I know! It's crazy that we have a president that is actually concerned about waisting tax payer money!
@ I voted for Trump. So if your assumption is that I think we’re headed in the wrong direction, you’d be wrong.
@@jackofalltrades123 It is crazy. All of it. The fact that half the country wants open borders and billions wasted on condoms in Gaza. You’d be correct.
You can be treated like humans in Mexico.
Let's hear all of it!
Finally they are shutting down those thieves.
BRAVO👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
"Foreign aid is taking money from poor people in rich countries, and giving it to rich people in poor countries" - Ron Paul
The whole agency might be corrupted n 🤔 evil 😈 if they are not doing their jobs well ... 🎉
Why do people think its their right to receive aid... stand on your own two feet.
Go musk!!!!
The fact that people want to defend this is mind boggling! Why is America expected to pick up the tabs around the globe? Stop ALL wasteful spending! Let the UN support this waste!
Don't worry 77 million people with 37 trillion reasons will be wanting names and companies NGO not much sunshine and follow the money transparency prosecution if needed.
You don't pay someone else mortgage when you can't pay your own. 30 trillion dollars in debt......
$36 Trillion and climbing
I'm sad for the people losing their jobs but I'm sick of paying for a bloated government that hates it's working class ...when I can't afford the essentials they so willingly and easily give away everyday out of my hard earned money.
Don't you worry one bit. These employees have PLENTY of our money hidden away for two life times!
Don’t be sad for people who work in a company that steals and then wastes your money……..
Get ready to pay more. Tariffs aren’t going to make your life cheaper.
USAID has done a lot of harm in India. Good they are under scrutiny.
Defending usaid is not going to age well.
If you want to be treated like humans, act like humans.
The FBI did the same thing to a DOJ worker, told him to f off. Well, when Patell gets in this idiot is gone and forgotten.
I don’t want my taxpayer dollars going to the garbage that is budgeted through USAID. Will the Hill mention all the DEI foo foo projects in foreign countries?
AMEN
shut it down
Now Rubio is starting to talk like a president. These are our tax dollars. Help Americans. Veterans, infrastructure, hurricane victims, roads and bridges, power grid, telecom grid and so much more here in the US needs to be addressed first. We are 36 trillion dollars in debt. Americans are fed up with run away gov't spending.
It is about time. Not one more penny overseas when we cannot even take care of our own…FEMA.
We have no business borrowing money to give to other countries. We shouldn't give away a dime to foregners, until we get our country's credit card paid off!
It's only 30 billion a year... that is about $200 per taxpayer. 2 Trillion is $13,000 per taxpayer.
Nah, shut it down. Charity starts at home.
It was said before that many agencies will get consolidated to streamline function and funding
There was talk from Trump 2.0 team before Jan 20th that they were going to push until they go a little too far, and then bring anything back that's needed. This seems to follow that logic. Rubio's post as acting director seems reasonable as the chief diplomat waiting for emergencies to spring up in response the stopped aid.
Removing employees involved in institutional thievery of tax dollars 😮
Why are they waving the Mexico 🇲🇽 flag if they claim to love and desire to live in America 🇺🇸 Mindbottling 🤥
So happy to see government is finally being rained in. Thank you
They're freaking out that their treasonous activities will be exposed and terminated.
Trump is doing what other presidents have failed to do
it's because he does not take money from it. sad to say just about every president before him has partaken of the trough that is usaid. The deep state grift and corruption has taken a huge hit today
Failed to do? More like won't do.
@cyprezz exactly
Yes spend the money at home
Fun n games are coming to an end
Love it Elon! End the waste and mismanagement of the swap
Get off the roads!
$30 billion is a drop in the bucket?? 😅
I am a taxpayer and I don't benefit from USAID.
Finally thank goodness for Trump
Totally agree with Marco Rubio! We don''t need to be giving soooo much money for programs that don't align with the United States.
Speed bumps! Nobody told them not to play in the streets. Most likely, they were told to go play in the street. I don't think their mothers love them.
When did organizations as such turned for profit with a non-profit status? It is shameful to see people taking money from less fortunate.
Don't give California any money
AMEN....THEY ARE RICH AND THEY CAN DO THEIR OWN THING...NO PROBLEMA
US A.I.D. budget is closer to $50 Billion per year. No Julia, Its not a drop in the bucket
Drain the swamp
Great..they did not give them time to destroy evidence. Thanks Elon
I cant even imagine what they are going to uncover while digging into thier files. Im glad they swooped in before they could destroy as much records as they could.
Only 30 billion, what a clown this reporter is, if Elon keeps up at this pace he will easily save a trillion the first year.
I am Hispanic, why my hard earned tax dollars hd to go as aid, while here at home there is no help for Americans? Well done Elon. MAGA.
SHUT IT DOWN
If you're a government employee and appointed by a political appointee you should expect that your job is subject to change when a new political entity comes into power.
It's about time we stop being enablers and let other countries take care of their citizens.
Good.
All USAID programs should be life saving programs. Other than that we need the money here!
Charge the liars for deception, outrageous to do this for decades!!!
my faucet go's drip drip drip and over 24 hours the bucket is full IT ADDS UP
Afuera!!!
JD Vance didn't forget about East Palestine. He's a real one. I wish he was the President to be totally honest.
US Agency International Development = USAID..
