Judge gives go-ahead for the Trump administration to gut USAID's workforce

Sweet! Are we paying out the farmers affected by this, and is that calculated against the "savings"?
🤔
 
Yes and no 🤷‍♀️

But it sure is cute to watch MAGAs call things such as

children’s malaria deaths, ending pharmaceutical clinical trials and threatening HIV resurgence

“Winning”

Strange take but 🤷‍♀️ we already know the character of MAGA types.

Why were farmers getting money from the CIA front USAID?

You should research this and find out since it's been in the news. This is why it's daft to cheer about cuts when most don't understand what gets funded.

In my opinion, a key element of MAGA's excitement to gut something is because they don't understand what it funds.
 
Putin wanted this so that he will face less resistance in his fight against democracy.

Elon Musk wanted this to punish them for opening investigations into his criminal enterprises.

The weird part is why MAGA pretends to love it.

So you think Russia spends a lot of money making pro Russia content for other nations?

In all the years of propagandizing the world we're more disliked now than before.

Maybe it isn't a useful expenditure.

The lack of self--awareness here is mind boggling.

Ukrainians, for example, are literally dying to be more like us than like Russia.

I don't know how much Russia spends, but it sure looks like they've got you in the bag.

Russia operates anti-democratic influence all over the globe. They helped Trump in 2016 and again in 2024.

It’s always interesting to see conservatives tell on themselves. Of course, to promote MAGA would require propaganda, but this is not true for democracy.

My resistance to mainstream media brainwashing? Thanks for the complement. I find keeping emotions in check help with that

Yeah because everybody that doesn't gulp down the mainstream slop must be owned by the Russians. That's the excuse you use to justify your lack of independence.

They want to be independent, as our European allies are, not subservient to Russia.

They want to be like us, western, not eastern, like Russia.

One doesn't have to see it in MSM. One can see it just by looking at the facts.

I always find that phrase hilariously ignorant.

MAGA is embracing tyranny of the minority.

They need to oust their dictator. We have elections even when we're in war.

How would you know?
 
Notice how quickly MAGAs want to divert away from the malaria drugs, HIV medications, etc that will not be distributed or the clinical trials that will be stopped to talk about conspiracy theories and hypotheticals.

If we helped them drive out Russia, we can pressure them to reform. If we let Russia take over, they'll get a permanent dictatro, with elections (Sound familiar? Russia, Russia, Russia ;)).

Use your head.

Predictable. It turns out that executives are actually allowed to engage in "executive powers" granted by the Constitution. Imagine that!

The more leftists challenge basic elements of the Constitution like this, the more foolish they look. Talk about self-sabotage....it's like watching a trainwreck!
