Staffers of the US Agency for International Development were instructed to stay out of the agency's Washington headquarters on Monday, according to a notice distributed to them.
This great news! $40 billion dollars saved in one swoop. Keep the money here. We gotta take care of our own stuff before we start throwing money to other countries.
Besides, how many countries send us financial aid when something bad happens to here?!
I have had a fucking great time since November. How are things with you? I mean, I’m just a clown, so things must be going super well with you over there, right?
I’m not certain USAID sends financial aid or rather if they provide services paid by their budget. And yes, the US does receive foreign aid in emergency cases. You have probably forgotten already, but there were some pretty bad fires lately that Canada helped fight with their CL-415s. Because, you know, money doesn’t usually solve any issue but debt. It won’t take out a fire or end a pandemic.
No country does foreign aid out of goodness. It puts your own companies into these countries.
I’m not saying the US has any obligation to provide foreign aid. But don’t portray them as a country that gets explored by other nations. The only ones exploring the US are the rich. The US is wealthy enough, possibly even the wealthiest large nation on earth. It wouldn’t be if they just gave all money or whatever away. It’s just a lie to keep you distracted.

LOL you think ANY of that money is staying with the USA? It’s going right into Trump’s pocket you delusional fool
And I’m still happy about it.
You call me a delusional fool, but Trump won, so I guess it’s time for the delusional fools to shine, right?
Maybe the Democrats shouldn’t have tried to scam the public. Seems like there were some fools in charge of them too. :)
Your one of those. 🤮
I didn’t vote for Trump.
But I AM one of those laughing about how much Lemmy and the Democrats fucked up when it came to the election. :)
I didn’t vote for him, but I don’t care that he won. I think the shit he’s doing is hilarious and you all acting like it’s the end of the world. lmao
holy shit babe, you’re actually a clown
Awww, thank you. I appreciate it.

Good to see the Reddit and X refugees fitting in fine.
So you think Lemmy should only have anti-Trump people and hardcore Democrats on it?
Oops, that’s not gonna happen. Deal with it, friend.
Why do you keep making up things and pretending I said them?
I wasn’t pretending you said it. I was asking you a question. Feel free to answer. Or not.

Fair points. But I think we provide way to much foreign aid. And I wanna know here the $40 billions dollars that this department oversaw went.
If it’s good and they have been doing good work, then they should make it public record.
