“It will just that kids will die at home and we won’t know”
Today’s “children will die” story, right on schedule!
Government has to provide this, private charities can’t do it? The problem with government doing it is it’s massively more expensive for them to do plus the real world result is that on top of that many grift streams of money also go out to grifters under cover of that stream to malnourished kids.
I didn’t know about the individual cups, the tube is great for eating on the move without a spoon and the peanut butter is nutritionally enhanced, the article says.
Time for SLB’s to step the hell up and put their money where their mouths are. Why should American taxpayers foot the bill always?
SLB= Stingy Liberal Billonaries
Not Trumps Fault you ruined this agency the few charitable things it did fund are gonna because of the Greed.
Some details:
MANAThis is akin to the corn-to-ethanol schemes, this one involving peanuts. If the "charity" notes a single donor for most of the "donations," it suggests this is a government operation. Nice income for those running it, as if it were a fully commercial enterprise.Form 990, Part I, line 8 -- "Contributions" -- $ 37,015,944
Line 19 -- "Revenue less expenses" -- $ 35,180,672
for a total revenue of over $ 74 million.Schedule B, Part I -- First and single "contributor" -- $ 35,000,000
How do you plan on making the new “humanitarian” organization different so that it isnt trafficking the drugs and children that the locals wont do like the UNs present “humanitarian” efforts?
Really, when you get right down to it, if you arent going to traffic children or trick people into sterilization through jabicide and stuff like that then are you actually a “humantitarian” organization?
Have the military fly a plane load of PB to them. It will cost hundreds of millions less and it will probably be the first time they actually received it.
Peanut Butter can be deadly. It’s the greatest threat to the RATS’ Democrazy. Take the kids to McDonalds for some chicken nuggets.
Why is this our problem?

I really have no plan on how to do it. My larger point was that if it’s a legitimate humanitarian expenditure, the burden for funding it shouldn’t fall exclusively on the U.S. tax payer. The burden for such expenditures should be shared with other developed countries. I don’t know if there’s a perfect vehicle for accomplishing that. There will always be grifters who try to mis-use charitable funds.
Perhaps the best approach would be for private charities (not NGO’s) step up. There are a lot people who claim to care about helping the third world. Maybe they should start getting involved rather than expecting governments to do it. Having governments in charge of charities is the surest way of making them ineffective and wasteful.
Maybe Mark should start sending his peanut butter to malnourished children around the USA.
I think some details are missing from this sad sad tale…waiting to hear DOGE’s side…

Thought the majority of kids were allergic to peanuts!! Were they trying to kill kids?
Mr Moore can do the capitalist thing and invoice the countries that want his product.
Also, Isn't what we are doing technically going into debt to be charitable? This is being charitable with debt we pass on to our Children's and Grandchildren's Money, or, Other peoples children.
Everyone around the world will feel better about themselves and possibly develop some sort of work ethic if they stop being pathetic parasites on the US Taxpayer. Some won’t. Too bad. Tough luck.
