DOGE Advisor Ron Paul has announced that one of his recommendations will be to totally ELIMINATE foreign aid.
"It’s taking money from the poor and middle class in the US and giving it to the rich in poor countries - with a cut to the facilitators in between!"
It's about time we defunded the dictators all around the world. The billions we send overseas are responsible for the corrupt people remaining in office for so long.
Nothing our foreign policy establishment has done since World War II has benefitted us or the world at-large in any way.

I saw effective small NGOs not receiving aid, but large NGOs with high overhead getting millions. I had to work hard to keep my quality Afghan staff because USAID projects could pay them double, even though they were already done of the highest paid Afghans in Kabul.
You can search out the 2-tier pay scales of the UN and it’s many organizations. Local staff get a fifth of the international staff. This means the UN hires and trains some of the best workers in the country. After a while they see they can make much more as an international staff and leave the country to work elsewhere. So these international organizations rob the talent of a developing country and create a wealthy global class beholden to the UN. My very best and highest paid staff person took a job in Iraq. I was saddled with international staff from Bangladesh, Liberia, South Africa, and more.
USAID doesn’t do aid itself but contracts with these high-overhead established mega organizations. Their foreign offices oversee the projects, which is largely useless overhead.
I could go on…
Cool link. Nah, I’m not that piytar. Or maybe I am? 😂
Wait until they really look at UN payments. Cut them off and boot them out.
HOORAY Elon, Vivek and Ron. Go DOGE!
Great - after eliminating foreign aid, put limits on so called ‘speeches’ by Americans connected to the US Govermmnet - limit speech pay to $1,000 a MINUTE so the ‘speech’ isn’t in truth a bribe.
I definitely agree with that, especially when it comes to Israel. The other nations can look after themselves for once.

Trillions in debt and we’re sending money to other countries? Insane. No more foreign welfare. Let them pay for their own things. We’re broke.
Agree Al foreign aid stopped
Israel would love this policy. If Obama/Biden had not rescued and massively funded Iran (and therefore funded Hamas, etc.) Israel would not be at war now.
That is how China can buy a country for a few $ millions.
Gee, if we did that we wouldn’t need as many government workers and that would be a real tragedy wouldn’t it?
I agree but this is how our pols get rich so the opposition will be strong.
See how much Death to America you get after pulling THAT teet out of the addicts’ mouth!!!
I agree
If the present nation-state of Israel and its population truly represent God's "chosen," then why would they need the support and protection of the United States?
I mean, as has been said before in a somewhat different context, "What does God need with a starship?"
Fat, drunk, and dispensationalist is no way to go through life, son.
Interesting...so cut aid to UN?
Use the foreign aid money to rebuild Appalachia.
Stop all aid except for Israel.
Oh, please, Lord. Let them listen to this man!
