Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Jan. 24 new guidance that halts spending on most foreign aid grants for 90 days. This directive, which took State Department officials by surprise, appears to include funding for military assistance to Ukraine, Politico reports.
According to a document obtained by the news outlet, the guidance requires staff to issue “stop-work orders” on nearly all “existing foreign assistance awards” and is effective immediately. More
I bet all these Countries are already on our doorstep on their knees begging and crying for the U.S. to give them money. Looks like here is at least another Trillion saved. Between the Paris Climate Crap withdrawal and now this that 3 Trillion savings goal may be reached in less than 6 months at this rate.
israel, philippines, & s. korea…otherwise, fkoff
Weld that money spigot shut.
Any country wanting money from the U.S. govt should explain in detail how that expenditure will be a financial benefit to the American people. No benefit, no bux.
I’m generally opposed to foreign aid, but if you can convince me that I’ll get more out of it than I put in it, I’m willing to consider exceptions.
I wonder if this includes the CIA drug trade…
After the past 4 years of pure crap plus obama’s 8 years, it’s going to take a very long time before I get tired of winning.
STOP, I can’t take anymore winning. JK. I think it’s fair to say Trump’s a pretty good student because he learned a shit load off that first term.
Except for the Jew guys…
Goddamn… Someone needs to invent a Narcan like treatment for winning. I think I’m gonna OD.

Shits coming so fast a furious the news media can’t keep up. I’ll bet we’re missing a few.
Now stop all this crazy bird flu nonsense and restore us poultry and egg markets.
I need some foreign aid also.
I am a citizen of the USA and need help paying my taxes.
Taxation without representation, have I heard that before?
The State Dept. is the money laundry. This is huge if it stands.
@Bad_Brad:
I don’t use this word very often, but President Trump’s actions this week have been awesome.
I know what you mean about missing a few. The Daily Wire claims to have it all; I don’t know about that but it is a VERY long list!

Why are we trillions in debt, yet we give away money to countries that hate us?
I hope Seattle & Portland made the list.
^^^^^^^
He bitch slapped Newsom so hard yesterday. Imagine being the Governor of any state and not being invited to a press conference put on by a sitting President. Trump ain’t playing
@Brad…the video of Newsome sweating on tarmac for 10 minutes was Gold! And the awkward handshake, hysterical! Don’t fukking mess with Trump,if you’re a soyboi!
Well, personally I’m getting a really big kick out of how tired the reporters & MSM are looking. Seriously, Trump wears me out just watching snippets from the comfort of my chair. They must feel like they’re trying to keep up with an Olympian.

It’s the Trump blitzkrieg. These slow thinkers can’t keep up. LOL
Why pay foreign countries to hate us?
When they can hate us for free!
90 days? How about forever?
