@nickorme8112 I've been tracking foreign aid for decades. The problem is the people who the aid is intended for never/rarely receive it. The UN is usually involved in these matters, and they are filled with puppets for China and the Soviet Union back in the day, Russia today.
For example even in some cases where it was private aid, like hands across America, none of that food went to the starving Africans. There were soviet IL-76 transports parked at the airports ready and waiting for the US goods to be loaded onto them, then flown into the Soviet Union.
The titles of these aid packages are false & misleading. Most of the money ends up in the hands of money- laundering networks, intelligence agencies, weapons traffickers, organized crime rings, shadow-bankers, and the various criminal-govt entities who exploit these shake-downs.
It's a giant scam.

@ГеоргийИванов-й6ю9ш One of my contacts in the Russian Foreign Ministry was running his mouth about how they were going to take everything back. This was in the early 2000s, as we had the discussion with an intermediary in 2007 when I brought up the subject of the risks vs rewards of Finland joining NATO.
It was explained at the time that Russia would interpret a Finnish NATO membership as a hostile action, which would accelerate the invasion of Finland on a timeline, but Russia planned to take Finland either way, along with the Baltics, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Chechnya, Uzbekistan, and any former Czarist or Soviet satellites.
I put a pin in that conversation thinking it was notable, but also possibly an old Soviet blow-hard who was casting his own desires on the new Putin Presidency. He was reprimanded by his superiors though for running his mouth too much about the new Putin foreign policies, because Putin was pretending to be peaceful at that time.
In summer of 2008, I was in Estonia finishing up the Erna Raid competition as an observer-controller when Russia invaded Georgia. The rest is history, as they say.

@tawmas1593 Hegseth is cleaning house in DoD of waste, fraud, and abuse so we can have more capability, not less. If you've ever been in DoD, you would agree there is a lot of largesse in the wrong places with overweight management, huge ancillary civilian workforces with obsolete jobs using out-dated equipment in unnecessary buildings, and billions wasted on things other than weapons, ammunition, fuel, spare parts, active duty and guard salaries, etc.

@JJJohnsonlive I wonder what judges we can find to oversee the trials of Joe Biden for child molestation, abuse of his own children, raping female staffers, treason, selling out the United States to Russia and China, the Iranians, weaponizing the DoJ against political rivals, compromising National security with the border, money-laundering untold millions from hostile nations to the US, conspiracy with Obama in attacking political rivals with the IRS, smuggling thousands of guns to Mexico under F&F, etc.
Oh wait, too senile to prosecute. Here's an icy and a diaper.

@garyspence2128 Now I’ll have to go figure what form of bigotry it was I was using when I had a black wife, and why I keep voting for black Congressional candidates in my district since 2012, and why I preferred Herman Cain over Mitt Romney, and why the best Sniper Squad Leader I had was black, but the worst Battalion Commanders I had were also black. Maybe because I look within the person and don’t really give a rip about their skin color? What form of white supremacy is that?
I fell in love with that girl because she was brilliant, a talented musician, above Master’s degree collegiate-level writer, and very attractive.
I voted for the Congressional candidates that I have because of their experiences and inspiration to build a better America, not looking for other to blame like Obama.
I preferred Herman Cain over all the other Presidential Candidates in 2012 because he was the only one with actual leadership experience in business, knew the numbers, and was powerful and confident enough to call out Bill Clinton on his fabricated numbers in a town hall meeting.
You might be guilty of blind partisanship, where carpet-bagging political opportunists have told you lies for generations, "vote for me", then do nothing to help you once in office. Biden is a lifelong open racist. Obama looks down on everyone.
Content of character >>>>> color of skin (don’t care)
