Sen. Chris Coons says “it’s smart” to spend $20M to produce Sesame Street in Iraq.
"It's a show that helps teach values, helps teach public health, helps prevent kids from dying from dysentery and disease..”
He wouldn’t say that if it was his own $20 million.
Are the Dems trying to get their poll numbers even lower?
Or is TDS and Musk Derangement Syndrome making them oppose everything DOGE does?
At least Bert and Ernie are hygienic, if I remember the bath tub scenes correctly…
How does it help prevent disease? Surely kids in Iran know to wash their hands without us paying for it. Any why are the kids in Iran our responsibility? If this video is really needed, let the damn Iranians pay for it.
In a sense, he is saying that because it is [now] his own $20m.
USAID $'s find their way to pol pockets, that then consider this their personal spending money, and now have a motive to try to justify.
muslims don’t Sesame Street , they have no entertainment besides attacking nonmuslims
Smart politicians aren’t defending crap like this. They know better.
How does it help prevent disease?

It may be a wonderful idea. That’s why the Iraqis should produce the show. There’s no reason for my tax money to be caught between Iraq and a kid’s place.
No sale Mr. Coons. If Iraq thinks it is beneficial to indoctrinate their youth with Senator Coons’ values, then let Iraq tax it’s own citizens to pay for it. Shouldn’t be that hard. Even AOC might understand the concept.
Hey, it’s Coons..take whatever he says with a bucket of salt. Just another Democrat script reader.
SEN COONS HAS THE IQ of A RACCOON.
No parent should have allowed their kid to watch Sesame Street.
If any millions he may have in his possession could really be counted as his own, that is.
Hopefully, if there’s any tax money still going to support Sesame Street, it will stop. All of the little toys and stuffed animals that are sold with Sesame Street characters provide no money to refund to the taxpayers. It’s just another example of privatizing profit while collecting payment from taxpayers.
How stupid are Iraqis that need this?
