- The media and political outcry that came when President Trump temporarily froze USAID and some domestic funding revealed how the political establishment uses the plight of the most vulnerable people to keep their rigged political system in place.

Foreign aid is the poorest of the wealthy countries giving money to the wealthiest of the poor countries.
Funny it’s Michael Parenti, the ardent Stalinist who coined that phrase
@@trippersweet7632 I don't care who coined the phrase, the phrase is correct.
@@minionsystems I didn’t say it wasn’t. I’m prodding at an alignment of duplicity’s recognition, guised in different ideological clothing, yet indicative of a shared observation. It’s important as an alignment of the peripheral views of the states effect.
@ I haven't seen such a twisted word salad since Kamala's speeches - did you help her write them? All you had to say is: sometimes bad people say true things.
No one is stopping charitable people from sending their own money to help others. The idea of PUBLICLY FUNDED charity needs to stop.
💯 x 💯 Institutionalized corruption is right!!!!
Like omnibus bills, USAID does one good thing for every 10 crimes and when you want to cut, they point to the little good things, ignoring their crimes. Same with omnibus bills, where you vote for some part that is good, while 90% is criminal spending.
I haven't heard one good thing about USAID yet.
Nailed it. 💯
It's not us-aid. I it is U. S. A. I. D. It's nothing to do with aid.
This is precisely why need is no grounds for right. It's quite easy to exploit.
Awesome video, man. Keep up the great work!

Very well said, done, & produced.. Thanks for posting !!!!!
And the government is the fortress of the banking class
I arrived at the Buenos Aires airport and was appalled to see children in shocking condition lined up along the walkways. I learned that there is a cottage industry of beggars borrowing disabled children for this purpose. The more miserable they were, the better the take. Your emotions are targets for exploitation, particularly by supposedly helpful people, like government.
It’s a good thing my heart is cold as liquid nitrogen
It's why they link food stamps with farm subsidies. THE CHILDREN!!!!!! (you monster)
UA-cam probably refused my ability to edit my previous comment. Maybe it has been deleted.
No one judge has the right to single-handedly stop the executive branch. If so, the president has the unilateral right to stop all courts. All fake "nationwide injunctions" should be ignored by the executive.
Look at it as a tool to prevent tyranny in the executive branch. You may not like it in this case, but it could be useful when the situation arises.
@ it's not valid in any case. I didn't say all levels of all courts, but no one judge should be able to do that. That's insane.
It doesn’t stop with 1 judge, though. It gets appealed up through the higher courts, right?
@ right, but one judge can and often does single-handedly stop the entire executive branch on major policies long before higher courts even see it. Lawfare commies also like to file in districts they know they're likely to automatically win the first couple rounds of appeals. The Supreme Court only decides usually under 100 cases a year and it likes things to work their way through the appellate process which is how things are designed to work under a fair and good faith system but we no longer have that. IF the left gets to do that nonsense, the right should injunction every thing from a demonrat admin. No one judge should EVER have the power to shut down the entire executive branch on an issue. The executive is the ONLY "unitary" branch where that kind of power is vested in one person.
Government literally means TO CONTROL THE MIND
You have to cut the _punitive apparatus, offensive military and/or police,_ to the same degree as overall spending is cut.
If you don’t, you aren’t libertarian in the slightest.
getting permission to ender this country and Citizenship is a racket as well. It is possible that there is no government agency that is not a racket.
Crumbs.
Well said
Wait, you are saying AID is not aid? ... oh yea money laundering, got it.
It's neocolonialism. There is a reason that countries like Burkina Faso kicked them out. They got out of debt and into economic recovery in 2 years.
Sounds good but it would be even better and really drive your points home if you could give examples of what you say is going on by giving real life examples and naming names of WHICH organizations are the biggest violators.
Also EVERY person exposing the horrors, which by now, everyone knows are going on, ought to give suggestions as to what a person can do. Since we obviously can't depend on politicians since they are part of the problem..
In Zambia USAid has completly closed down. So instead of just believing what the Trump admin tells you, why not asking people on the ground what's happening?!
wat does the bible say about rich people? that they didnt help the poor
