And the plane. I think. He just wants to travel the world over, stay at lavish places, eat great food, and hand with the powerful, on our dime.
The AID in USAID doesn’t stand for aid, it’s agency for international development which is just CIA speak for “interfering in foreign countries elections”.
Are you arguing that that CIA interference in foreign countries is a critical government service?
In that case I don’t know what to tell you.
You have a childs-like view of how the world works if you are boiling "international development" down to "interfering in foreign countries elections"
You have a child like nativity if you think foreign aid doesn’t come with strings attached.
You do know the polio vaccine program in Pakistan where DNA analysis to find Bin Laden was done through USAID? The one that set vaccination back decades?
And now you’re defending it. Amazing.
If you don't think foreign aid is important for the continued safety of the US then you don't understand soft power and have no business in modern politics.
Sadly the people in charge fit into this category, except for the ones like Marco Rubio who actually do understand this but have no spine and are willing to overlook this stupidity for a seat at the table.
