How awesome would it be to use that money here. Lots of things it could be used for. Veterans care and support? As I recall, we signed a blank check to be used as needed to the U.S. government. Up to being maimed or killed.....just sayin’.

Rubio (with DOGE support) is exceeding expectations.

Now the rest of the cabinet needs to follow his excellent example.

The level of corruption is truly overwhelming. In the midst of this cesspool of criminals apparently not one government employee was with enough integrity to report this waste and corruption to the inspector general or to congress. That is an indictment of these government worker parasites. Firing all of them would not make up for what they have done through their perfidy. These people survive only because they are sociopaths who have neither conscience or integrity. Pox upon them.

FEMA has confirmed that 3,500 American households will lose Transitional Sheltering Assistance, just days before the worst winter storm rolls in. Videos show a car line “a mile-long” for portable heaters and propane. FEMA’s $750 loans are still available.

On Friday, October 20th, 2023, the Biden Administration sent a Supplemental Funding Request to the Congress that contains key priorities for the American Jewish community:

$14.3 Billion in Emergency assistance to Israel: This emergency assistance will bolster Israel’s ability to defend herself and replenish vital defense systems, including the Iron Dome and David’s Sling missile defense programs.

Biden increased Funding for FEMA’s Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP): Jewish communities are in a state of elevated readiness and have already been forced to increase their security measures.

FEMA’s Nonprofit “Security Grant Program” helps ensure the safety and security of Jewish institutions. The increased funding included in Biden’s Supplemental Budget Request will help bolster Jewish community’s capacity to protect itself at this challenging time.

It becomes ever more fascinating how MANY Unites States government agencies were funneling money outside the US for such a variety of political interests, not our own.

The article's phrase speaks: "genuine humanitarian relief." What has been identified by the State Department SO FAR seems quite the same gaming of the system which likely all government agencies have been working at under Democrats and RINOs.

Add in those "charitable" tax-exempt entities working around the clock on political goals outside the US as inside, and behind the scenes it is assured a great many "fat cats" atop all these schemes will be angry, finding their "patsy" no longer a patsy.

It would be wonderful if our government would revise the tax-exempt laws/definitions to strip away all political activities.

So many suckers at US teets we gotta shut it down. But, then again, the idea of the world elite is to take the US down from within. No one wants to go to war with us. But sending our dollars out of the county is how we get slowly bled out. When we are making, selling and buying our own goods and services the money stays in our economy. The exact OPPOSITE of the plan to take us down economically. That’s what Trump understand and why they hate him so much?

$60B, chop, chop, chop!! Reroute that money to the VA, or put it toward our national debt.

THIS is especially corrupt when you think how Joe and Harris came out with their lip service about US allegiance to Israel...

“… the majority of the State Department’s cuts center around USAID’s international programming. In addition to its climate and inclusivity spending, the aid group has funneled millions of dollars to anti-Israel advocacy groups and entities linked to terrorism, causing internal friction across multiple administrations…”

In 2024, Biden gave Israel another $12.5 billion dollars. Well, it was an election year and Harris needed votes.

---

Harris’ acceptance speech to the 2024 Democratic National Convention drew one of her most thunderous applause lines when she called for an end to the violence and suffering Israel is inflicting in Gaza and for the long-denied fulfillment of Palestinian rights to dignity, security, freedom and self-determination.

This enthusiastic reception by tens of thousands of die-hard Democrats at the convention, was a faithful reflection of where the base of the party stands on Israeli issues.

And now we hear that drjill Biden has been pressuring her husband on Israel’s war on Hamas, saying. “Stop it. Stop it now, Joe.” At a Ramadan event at the White House, Joe Biden reportedly told attendees about “Jill’s sophisticated geopolitical advice.”

Progressive agitator Michael Moore told Democrat Biden to stop “funding Israeli genocide.” Moore lacerated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “How many times can Netanyahu flaunt your rules, ignore your advice, and spit in your face? He came to Our House, the People’s House, and spewed hate and violence.”

Senator Bernie Sanders criticized Biden’s approval of sending more weapons to Israel. “The US cannot beg Netanyahu to stop bombing civilians one day and the next send him thousands more 2,000 lb. bombs that can level entire city blocks. This is obscene,” Sanders said on X, sharing the report of Washington Post. “We must end our complicity: No more bombs to Israel,” Sanders reiterated.

“CBS Mornings” TV anchor Tony Dokoupil got into trouble for pressing Ta-Nehisi Coates, about his virulent anti-Israel views on the Middle East conflict, and his questioning Israel’s right to defend itself.

CBS’s pending sale to a studio run by movie producer David Ellison of “Top Gun: Maverick” fame was jittery. David’s father is Larry Ellison, one of the world’s richest men, and one of the most pro-Israel executives in corporate America — he’s best buds with Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu.

Increasingly, it sounds like a great majority of those programs and NGOs were merely money-laundering schemes that funneled the money right back into the DNC, and various politicians’ pockets.

Thanks for your post.
Nice to get good news in the morning (8:00am here on the Left Coast).

Apparently this guy sold a lot of books:

Kind of amazing how Americans stoically endured deprivation to fund “pride” parades in Karachi.

following "decades of institutional drift"

Shouldn't that be "institutional grift"?

I am thrilled at winning every day!

This country is broke from overspending. How about we simply do not spend it?

[rktman]

Or spent on “new, made up” holidays.
