The Trump administration’s efforts to dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development, which officials have said is intended to rein in wasteful spending, has left American workers in limbo and threatens billions of dollars the agency spends on American businesses and organizations, global development experts and industry representatives told The Washington Post.
USAID oversees projects such as food aid, disaster relief and health programs in over 100 countries with a staff of more than 10,000 and a budget of around $40 billion. Billions of those dollars flowed back into the American economy until President Donald Trump ordered a 90-day freeze on foreign-aid spending last month.
Now U.S. businesses that sold goods and services to USAID are in limbo. That includes American farms, which supply about 41 percent of the food aid that the agency, working with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, sends around the world each year, according to a 2021 report by the Congressional Research Service. In 2020, the U.S. government bought $2.1 billion in food aid from American farmers.
Purchases and shipments of U.S. food aid worth over $340 million — including rice, wheat and soybeans — have been paused during Trump’s foreign-aid freeze, according to officials and an email obtained by The Post. That has left hundreds of tons of American-grown wheat stranded in Houston alone, Rep. Angie Craig of Minnesota, the highest-ranking Democrat on the House Agriculture Committee, said Tuesday.
The article written by a site that lost its piece of the grift due to the freeze, is conjecture full of possibly and all the rest of the usual bullshit H posts
The family farmer isn't in on this particular grift. Big Agri Business is. And I don't care Margaret
The investigation has shown that about 2% of the billions actually ends up as aid. But Angie said!!!!!!
One of my favorite types of the many @HHusky self-owns is when he posts an article that completely refutes whatever thought bubble just popped out of his pea-brain head.

It was on Twitter. You are required to believe it.
It's X.
And do tell what the fuck Ben Stiller has done for this country that is worth $4 million of taxpayer funds without referencing one of his movies.
Scott Baio accidentally said it all: the claim is "unbelievable".
So you have no answer as to what the fuck Ben Stiller did to deserve $4 Million of taxpayer funds.
Dazzler now becoming Ostrich Man.
But it happened
Dodge and deflect is a shitty plan
Someone called the dazzler "intellectually uncurious". Seems to be true and proven on a daily basis.
Who are we to question TruthHammer4EVA?
It's on the internet. Must be true.
More credible than the NYT.
Pulitzer Prizes for publishing Democrat lies on Russian Collusion is the peak of journalistic integrity.
Ironic.
I wonder who benefits from bullshit stories like this. Hmmmm
Ironic.
I wonder who benefits from bullshit stories like this. Hmmmm
Why don’t use your words and tell me what’s ironic about it, you little bitch?
priceless

feckless

@HHusky yet again can’t use his big boy words to argue a point.
This is his best effort.
H doesn't understand that all of the work on USAID is available for all to see and all these examples are pulled from the actual site
Rather than provide any proof it isn't true, because there isn't any, he engages in what Bob called the jackass dance
You're embarrassing the smarter retards now. Even Mall Cop understood, maybe.
”I’m not retarded. It’s everybody else who’s retarded.”
You have spent all morning posting and have yet to make any sort of a substantive point. Fascinating
Meanwhile, I’m enjoying you reminding all what a whiny little bitch you are, on top of being of, at best, average intellect.
This is just some fancy pants way of saying "Tough darts, Farmer!"
I was right as usual

One that actually cared about aid reaching where it is needed welcomes this kind of accountability because 2% of aid reaching the target is criminal
Yes, tear down USAID. All of it. Then reboot or don't

The longer he waits to link the dumber the link is
