USAID: thank you for your tender hearts
This morning, I intended to write an article to debunk the conspiracy theories involving USAID and the misinformation alleging that President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s DOGE team (Department of Government Efficiency) uncovered billions of dollars in US taxpayers’ money funnelled through USAID to the “East-West Management Institute.” According to these claims, this money was then redirected to George Soros’ “Open Society Foundation,” purportedly resulting in a well-funded attack on Christian family values by supporting initiatives like abortion, pornography, LGBT rights, the WOKE movement, and more. But instead of getting involved in an argument of little value, I would like to use this opportunity to say THANK YOU to my friends and all the faithful, selfless workers at USAID who saved countless lives and relieved the pain of millions of people.
