Perhaps the most concise and penetrating daily analysis of domestic and world affairs. USAID is one corrupt and unaccountable agency. Let’s see if it can be reformed at State under Rubio.
Little media Hogg is not a school shooting survivor as he wasn’t in school that day. If he is to be called a school shooting survivor then so are all of us not present that day.
Putting Hogg in the dnc shows how few ideas democrats have and even fewer tribunes of any note.
"Bill Kristol, Democratic operative"....your writers are. so sick. I guess anyone who, despite spending their lives as conservative Republicans, is not a sycophantic supporter of the truly ignorant Tangerine Tornado, is a "Democratic operative". That you don't recognize that Trump and his crew are wannabe authoritarians is truly remarkable (and inexcusable).
You go, Mister Marshall: "truly ignorant Tangerine Tornado"... way kewl, seminal, ground-breaking prose!!! No way, José, that Kristol is a democrat operative. Amirite?
The James Li straw man to the side, you didn’t do anything to debunk the idea that USAID is a CIA front. Your quote from Lee Smith seems even to prove the point, as he argues that USAID counters American adversaries abroad, including by supporting domestic opposition groups that aim to overthrow the government.
If that’s not a CIA front what is?
You’d do better to look at the commentary being pushed by Mike Benz. If you can point out the flaws in any of that it would be important work.
Bottom line: it seems that USAID is indeed an aspect of the American government’s efforts to ensure certain people come to power and certain others lose it in countries all over the world.
Eisenhower was a legitimate warrior who had good reasons for trying to figure out ways to avoid open war through fighting by other means. More than 60 years after his presidency ended and after we have seen the many ways the foreign policy blob both undermines peace and is used as a weapon against American citizens, it’s time for a vigorous debate about whether or not the United States government should be involved in any of these kinds of operations.
Claiming USAID is innocent without providing evidence to back that claim up pushes skeptics deeper into opposition. It’s also not in the spirit of open debate that Tablet has so admirably championed these last few incredibly important years.
In one day, the greatest complaint I have ever had about the US State Dept., that they were money laundering taxpayer cash for Progressive Globalist projects, has been handled. I do not even know how to feel right now. Immensely grateful. Praise the Lord. Now, maybe those "root causes" for mass immigration into the United States could be addressed by building some infrastructure in certain South American nations. Street lights, roads, properly equipped law enforcement, maybe some pharmaceutical industries down there so China doesn't do it all.
Judging by the reaction by almost the entirety of the Democrat Left over the virtual defunding of USAID, methinks they doth protest too much.
What nerve center, pray tell, hath been touched?
Talk about over the target! Wow! 🎯

"David Hogg, the 24-year-old liberal activist".... LMFAO. Keep it coming, Dems!
David Hogg 🤣🤣🤣👍
They have learned nothing.
Sooooooo happy to hear of Netanyahu’s appointment of Caroline Glick! She was born for it!
👏👏♥️♥️

Trump will be seeing this before he meets with Netanyahu
Great news re AID which was clearly a faucet for funds for woke policies
“Let’s Scroll!” Or “The Whole Megillah”
Both solid slogans/taglines.

"the Trump administration has stepped up its war on the U.S. Agency for International Aid and Development (USAID)"
According to their website the name for the organization is: U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). The word "Aid" does not appear.

Kristol used to be a democrat then a neocon then a “principled conservative “ then a TDS and now a democrat operative. Full circle of the grift

Samantha Power is the Angel of Death for international politics. Every country, the Obama appointed USAID leader enters murder and chaos follow.
