You are absotively correct My Good Sir, ‘WE’ (The USA) are a Benevolent Super Power. When times are good (and Foreign Insurgents and Traitors aren’t actively trying to destroy us like TODAY!) We share the load in AID and DONATIONS. The Radical Left have taken thievery in most areas of ‘AID’ to new heights. You can’t donate if they are stealing all the cash.
We are LOVED by our Friends and Allies and HATED by our own misguided twisted Lefty’s (they basically give the USA a bad name).
Lot’s of fixing within our own borders before we open the ‘Taps’ again.
Ahh, The Borgen Project. Closely intertwined with USAID, the organization that has been found to be rife with money laundering fraud.
From your article,
“The United States has always prided itself on being a leader in the push for global development, yet, the United States still ranks close to the bottom in aid donations with only point two percent of the federal budget allocated to foreign aid.”
The U.S. federal budget in 2025 was 7.1 TRILLION dollars. Let’s see how much money we send to foreign countries if we are only taking 0.2% of the budget.
7,100,000,000,000 x 0.2% = $142,000,000,000 (One hundred and forty two thousand MILLIONS)
That’s like EVERY YEAR, and then they have the audacity to count on one hand the number of times notable big donations came to us from other countries in our 250 year history. Not bad.
And I’m not pro or con…just an article I found. I don’t think that there’s any questions that we’re the big fish when it comes to giving. What we need is to be more careful with how much we give and where/what it is for. Just like Vance is doing now.
Just like the ease of manipulating charts/graphs, % vs. count is another tool. I’m sure that the $s data is out there too, but I’m lazy. I suspect that U.S. gives $ are a lot higher than everyone else combined gives $.
AMERICA (and it’s Citizenry) KNOW HOW TO MAKE MONEY. As a general rule we also (usually) know how to keep it! Unless the Demoncratic Communist Party decides it’s going to leave us Broke, Homeless and bleeding in the gutter (if they get their way about all this).
All this talk about Charities and Donations is very cool but think on this---- WHAT CHARITY IS CLEAN TODAY?
I’m serious, No joking around—The Red Cross?, The World Wildlife Foundation?, US AID? All seem to either have been absolutely CORRUPTED or run by Grifters and Thieves. After 9/11 EVERY DIME DONATED WOULD GO TO THE VICTIMS! Error BUZZER! it didn’t it went to MANY Charities and .gov entities OPERATING EXPENSES. I know this happens all the time you need to defer all operating costs—I GET THAT then please don’t promise all monies go to the Victims then and there would be no controversy. During North Carolina and California’s Fire DISASTERS FEMA barged in and made matters WORSE because instead of HELPING folk’s they hurt them even more by roadblocking RELIEF FUNDS—Tell me something : You lost yer Home, Job, Family, Complete devastation of your Town or City (No Banks operating and they give you a PAPER CHECK? WTF is wrong with them *they are CABAL that’s what) Damaging a VICTIM worse than the devastation they lived through is CRIMINAL! (and the Pelosi’s, Clinton’s Gates, LAUGH at us!)
WE THE PEEP’S are Fed the phuck up!
My prediction (and my Tin Foil Hat is still warming in the Oven is we will only take so much more of their NOISE. Trump indeed PROMISED NO CIVIL WAR… ok whatever. But if this garbage continues, the Fraud, the Lying, the VIOLENCE there won’t be a country left to rule.
No matter what Trump say’s none of these flaming pustules seem to have been held accountable (yet)
They keep Crimming and Spewing their Socialist/Anti-America rhetoric hoping for all this to get worse.
The politicians still remain, but their lifeblood (Money laundering through NGO’s) is being systematically shut down. Billions in fraud, pillaged from government programs are being shut down.
It’s not everything we’ve been shooting for, but given that there have been almost 1000 lawsuits brought to block everything the president does, along with the rogue judicial system and feckless congress, the border is still shut down, record numbers of Ice apprehensions, stock market is on fire, low jobless claims, record spending in the business sector, Iran virtually declawed, Cuba next, violent crime down to lowest levels and a host of other things, we’re making headway. All branches of military have exceeded recruitment quotas. Trump accounts for newborns, largest tax cuts, Drug prices down to most favored nation status. The Capital is restored… And it goes on and on. Don’t let the media or social media drag you down.
Or kick the Phucker to the curb like I did! My ‘New’ Doctor wanted to give me a ‘Tetanus’ shot (for no reason), Not cut, no rusty nails sticking threw my foot, 'You haven’t had one in a while he said (w/ a straight face too) The Nerve! Buh Bye Buddy!
