I'm sure there are...we're just getting different results lately...why is that?
isn't it nice to see some transparency for a change on where the funds are heading? or it shouldn't be highlighted?
Elon Musk dismantles USAID

Because Musk is picking and choosing what to talk about and misrepresent on Twitter.
After all, he isn't publishing a report or showing any evidence.
He's just posting on twitter and spinning a narrative.
There isn't any transparency about what Musk is doing.
That's one of the major objections about it.
He's in there fucking around and posting what he likes without any supervision or checks on what he is lying about or misrepresenting in furtherance of his agenda.
Prove he's lying... they have created the list...including funds going to news outlets... which one is he "picking" as I see some programs not waste and some are useless...
be honest...you're against this because you hate Donald Trump...it's understandable...
Prove he's lying?
The condom one is a lie, as you already know.
He boosted the lie about USAID funding celebrities trips to Ukraine.
I'm sure if I look at more of his almost 200 tweets on the subject, there would be more falsehoods and misrepresentation.
He ran this play with "The Twitter Files", remember?
How was it a lie, they identified there ws suppose to be a budget for it and killed it...it all boils down to this...you're upset Trump is doing what he promised americans...
this could piss you off even more...
I've been hearing about it for a few decades. Some commentators and politicians have been speaking out about the lack of transparency and accountability.
Perhaps you just haven't heard about it.
This argument you make here doesn't change the need for reform.
You aren't even the least bit concerned that Musk has all the USAID info, Medicare info and access to IRS and all other government docs?
That he and trump are planning to set up a sovereign trust fund to funnel government money into their own control?
You think any money from tariffs will ever end up being used for americans?
No, fuck all the people who have been backing genocide. AIPAC and all the dems who supported the genocide against the wishes of their own party. Fuck them.
Now you've created a situation where after massive student protests against genocide were shut down by the dems using aggressive police, students are now less willing to protest trump. With trump now declaring he'll jail or deport anyone who protests now people are going to be way more wary about working against this regime.
This is what Netanyahu wanted.
Those crackdowns will aid the rise of fascism in the states.
It was a lie because those things aren't in the USAID budget.
They were... what's the word... untrue.
Breaking the law and laying the groundwork for a corrupt autocracy?
Yes, he did promise that and I am upset about it.
So why do you trust and support him when you know that he doesn't make decisions based on what is good for Americans?
It is irrational. But it is yet another example of tDSers saying I don't like this about him and I don't like that but I never criticize anything he does. I always defend his decisions. Your words are merely platitudes to ward off criticisms of non-trumpers but they do not represent who you are. You are fooling no-one but yourselves.
This is a clear case of actions talk louder than words. Your actions of totally supporting everything he does totally neutralizes your empty words of pointing out his flaws. It makes your words bullshit and meaningless and verifies that you are tDS cultists. It is undeniable.
Start thinking for yourselves instead of marching in lockstep to the perfect leader's edicts and begin to match up your supposed criticisms with actions because you are not doing that now. It is hypocritical to point out his flaws and then defend everything he does and says.
Then you should refrain from saying that they're doing their jobs. I know as much or as little about them as you do.
In post 158 you asked...
I followed up by asking if you were asserting that instead, the President/Executive should have a line-item veto, since the implication here was that going back and asking Congress to do that would be ridiculous since this power belonged to the Executive Branch.
Are you asserting that or not?
If it's a process, it may be the first time he's actually followed a process, but the question still remains, how long until he sends in the troops. It's a rhetorical question, so I'm expecting an actual answer with a time frame. It's more of a statement that if push comes to shove that is what he'll do. He won't hesitate.
Disagree. Like they do in Russia and China, loud criticism of the gov't will be muted by intimidation. There was no disruption of businesses in Tienanmen (sp) Square. There was no disruption of property when Russian police arrested thousands protesting the war in Ukraine. Mass, loud criticism of trump alone is all it will take will not be tolerated and forces of some sort will come in.
Thank you for your perfect tDS response. Always, always, always give him benefit of the doubt. And if you are proven wrong you will come up with some excuse to attempt to get him off the hook. "The police didn't properly follow his orders. They over reacted. Blame them." You are following cult protocol to a "T". Sorry rich, but it's the truth. That's what dictators throughout history eventually do.
