The White House is warning that a proposed Ugandan bill that would outlaw identifying as LGBTQ+ could threaten US aid to the African country.
John Kirby, coordinator of strategic communications for the National Security Council, said Wednesday that if the law passes, the Biden Administration would consider potential "repercussions...perhaps in an economic way."
"This would be really unfortunate because so much of the economic assistance we provide Uganda is health assistance," Kirby said at a press briefing. "Hopefully it won't pass and we won't have to do anything."
The United States provides more than $950 million in aid to Uganda each year...

Oh well China and Russia will pick up the aid slack each of those countries already have bridgeheads in African nations.
And hasn't enough money been spent on foreign aid already.
People who play with human crap run the world.
Pull it. I don’t give a damn about the reason.
“White House threatens to pull aid to Uganda over anti-LGBTQ bill”
The ISOLATIONISTS in the White House continue down their path to cut the United States off from the rest of the world. It will NOT end well for us.
And flush all that kickback money down the toilet?
I don’t think so.
“Withholding aid will hurt everyone”
Lol. Fish in a barrel.
A. Why are we giving them aid in the first place?
B. What else would we expect from these filthy sex deviant democrats?
“I’m not gay, but 950 million bucks is 950 million bucks.”
This is not the way to build respect or friendship.
America is going to lose all influence in the Third World and I can’t blame countries for seeking help from Russia and China.
“People who play with human crap run the world.”
Perhaps they DID run the world, but with Russia and China in 3 days of meetings and agreements this week, and the upcoming liberation of Ukraine by Russia, they just lost the empire that Reagan handed to them on a silver platter.
“The United States provides more than $950 million in aid to Uganda each year.”
What do we get for that $950 million?
Are living conditions for Ugandans improved with that close to a billion dollars?
They’ll just turn to China for the aid.

Biden is as globalist as they come. Uganda (and the rest of the world for that matter) WILL BOW before the alter of LGBTQXYZ. Makes you proud to be a US citizen doesn’t it? /s
You should ask people in Ukraine. They got over $100 billion. $950 million is a pittance.
Biden is a thug on top of being a crook! Cannot wait until he gets true justice from God….
Uganda doesn’t need your frickin’ aid.
So does that mean we stop aid to the Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Pakistan? I hear they like to give gay Muslims the scenic route from the tops of their buildings.
“Biden is as globalist as they come.”
Kind of like the Last Emperor was still ‘officially’ the Emperor when Japan occupied China...even though everything outside of the Royal Palace (the White House) has moved on without him.
Biden and his consorts can continue with his attempts at Globalism, but this year France was kicked out of Africa, and country after country is joining BRICS. He’s too frail to realize what is happening, but it’s obvious to anyone with news sources other than CNN.
“Biden is as globalist as they come.”
...and China can EASILY match our dollars, and without the social agenda. Easy call for most leaders.
Justice Joseph Story had put it this way about foreign aid.
“If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).
Patriots, the bottom line is this imo. What is your threshold of “pain” for peacefully stopping unconstitutionally big state and federal governments controlled by bully, constitutionally undefined political parties, from oppressing the people under their boots?
The inevitable remedy for ongoing, post-17A ratification, corrupt political party treason (imo)...
All MAGA patriots need to wake up their RINO federal and state lawmakers by making the following clear to them.
If they don’t publicly support either a resolution, or a Constitutional Convention, to effectively "secede" ALL the states from the unconstitutionally big federal government by amending the Constitution to repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments (16&17A), doing so before the primary elections in 2024, that YOU will primary them.
If the proposed amendment was limited strictly to repealing 16&17A, relatively little or ideally no discussion would be needed before ratification of the amendment imo.
With 16&17A out of the way, my hope is that Trump 47 becomes the FIRST president of a truly constitutionally limited power federal government.
In the meanwhile, I'm not holding my breath for significant MAGA legislation to appear in the first 100 days of new term for what may still prove to be another RINO-controlled House.
In other words, primarying RINOs in 2022 was hopefully just for practice. Trump will hopefully do another round of primarying for 2024 elections.
The Saudis just made up with Iran re-established diplomatic relations with China mediating.
Both the Sunnis of Saudi and the Shia of Iran must be scratching their heads over a Western world hellbent on LGBTQ including genital mutilation of children.
They both figure in their guts there’s a bigger picture than their Islamic religious disputes and China and Russia are ready to hold their hands and empathize.
