..where she will provide details of nearly $100 million in funding from the Millennium Challenge Corporation, a foreign-aid agency, to create a new model for secondary education, her aides said.

Wow, apparently American education is without needs.

Moochie loves spending other people's money.

Those in government couldn’t care less what benefits Middle America. Trump cannot get elected fast enough.

You tax dollars at work.

No need for foreign governments, since obama and his retards will fork over YOUR hard-earned cash and run everything from Washington.

Except the US, of course. THAT’S running along without any government at all.

As soon as the media turns their head away from the show Morocco will make of setting up these “girls’ schools”, all that money will immediately be diverted into the mosques and madrassahs. No girls will ever be educated with that money. Indeed, it will likely go towards adding to the financing of the modern day Barbary pirates who continue to enslave blacks and sell them.

$100 million to educate $62 million girls. That is $1.61 per student. How much teaching can you do for $1.61?

Since WHEN did she hold an elected office? And, since WHEN does she decide where our money will be spent? I believe that is congress’ job. Right?

The schools and education system in her home town is in shambles. Most of those passed on can’t qualify to go to college.

If the education is anything like that received by children in her hometown, it is absolutely meaningless, as is everything else she does.

Is this out of her own pocket?

And actually, American education is without financial needs. If the currently-provided money were wisely used, it would be far more than sufficient.

Some info on this organization:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Challenge_Corporation

As American taxpayers, we should never, ever allow a check to be written to any foreign country. If we want to pay Americans to go somewhere to lend a hand (”Peace Corps”), that is one thing. But to hand over our cold, hard cash to another government leads to several bad things (drum roll) - corruption, misappropriation of funds, and a total lack of accountability. If our “elected representatives” cannot be held to a standard of accountability, what can we expect from a foreign government???

OMGosh, I live in Kentucky, and wow, do we need some help right here. What a shame. It will probably all go into some dictator’s Swiss bank account, never to be seen again except in the Caribbean islands.....
