Good and even better - cutting foreign aid

| No Comments

Most of our foreign aid is just going into the Swiss bank accounts of the tyrrants who run the countries. President Trump is looking at ending this policy of sending money and looking the other way. And it gets even better. The liberals will be screaming - I love it!  From Politico:

Trump administration mulls $4.3B in foreign aid cuts
The Trump administration is looking to cut more than $4 billion in foreign aid spending, including severe cuts to the United Nations budget that advocates say will threaten national security and increase human suffering around the globe.

The White House budget office is eyeing $2.3 billion in cuts to USAID and a $2 billion cut to the State Department through a process called rescission, an administration official speaking on background confirmed to POLITICO. The official cautioned that the numbers are subject to change.

Of course this is going to "threaten national security and increase human suffering around the globe" - it is their rice bowl that is being emptied. In reality, no such thing. A tinpot dictator in some third-world shithole will not get another Mercedes Maybach this year. Nothing more. It will not affect the overall lives of the citizens.

That he is also cutting the United Nations' budget is pure gravy.
