Donald Trump's order freezing foreign aid has sealed the spigot of U.S. taxpayer dollars flowing to DEI projects abroad, saving U.S. money from being 'lit on fire,' a top Republican says.
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast (R-Fla.) has revealed exclusively to DailyMail.com some suspicious federal expenditures that the State Department approved under Joe Biden.
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) programs, meant to expand diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) objectives abroad, are now effectively killed under Trump's foreign aid freeze.
One of the big ticket items that no longer will receive U.S. funding is a pro LGBTQ group in Serbia through a group called 'Grupa Izadji,' which in English translates to 'Group Come Out.'
This NGO received $1.5 million from Biden's administration to 'advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia's workplaces and business communities, by promoting economic empowerment of and opportunity for LGBTQI+ people in Serbia.'
According to the grant, the Serbian group 'will foster an environment that increases employment potential for LGBTQI+ persons, expands opportunities for LGBTQI+ entrepreneurs, and reduces workplace discrimination.'
However, Trump's foreign aid freeze has cut off money from flowing to 'Grupa Izadji,' which was expected to be funded through the end of FY 2025.
Projects like that and others that push DEI, like a $70,000 grant to a group in Ireland to produce a DEI musical in 2022, will now be crushed by Trump and his Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Mast says.

Good start
“Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said this week that the Biden administration almost sent $50 million taxpayer dollars worth of condoms to Gaza, which she called ‘a preposterous waste of taxpayer money!’”
With the LA fires and DC airplane crash....... This has been an awful month for the DEI fraud and fraudsters.
For any critical infrastructure, you need to ban DEI. Ban it from universities and the “work from home” Federale Government.
All of these programs have strings attached $$$$ to those issuing them namely politicians
The global Left is mostly funded through myriad government grants to thousands of NGOs.
This is what the Left fears: having to get a real job where they actually have to produce something of value.
The child grooming is over the top. I suppose the money involved goes to doctors to cut off parts, or to Pharma to make sterilization drugs.
It is sick, and I’m beginning to think that a hospital is too good for these diseased minds.
[One of the big ticket items that no longer will receive U.S. funding is a pro LGBTQ group in Serbia through a group called ‘Grupa Izadji,’ which in English translates to ‘Group Come Out.’]
But remember that “Globohomo” is a conspiracy theory against the innocent Democrats........
Keep in mind that the government is borrowing money to give to these groups. The American taxpayers will have to repay the loan.
Does this make anymore sense then someone using a credit card to give to a charity but not able to pay the balance off each month?
MORE! MORE!!
Ireland is further lost than England and they hate us more than the Mexicans. Boo hoo.
Take that globohomo’s and all of their neocon supporters.

Are some of these funded programs CIA covers? Just wondering…
So much winning. Hard to believe what was all going on with our government. So much waste.
Why the F is a country $36.5 trillion in debt funding this crap? It’s like sending your rich neighbor money when your credit cards are maxed out.
Seems DOGE could easily cut 2 trillion with the amount of waste.
In 2022, Serbia received $510.13 million in Biden foreign aid tax dollars.
The US is the largest donor of foreign aid to Serbia.
In 2020, the Biden US government provided $29.3 million in tax dollars to Serbia, including COVID-19 assistance.
Since 2001, USAID has handed over $937 million tax dollars for Serbia’s economic and democratic development.
