Making a Sesame Street that appeals to children in war torn places that WE TORE UP so they maybe don’t grow up wanting to MURDER US is one of the best uses of $20 million dollars I can even imagine!

There were several more on the list that sounded more than reasonable as well. Male circumcision reduces hiv transmission, education in Asia, the dei programs at Dept of Ed, etc… these all seem like reasonable things-they just aren’t things Elon and Trump like.
There's also a lot of it free online so Americans like me can begin to learn Arabic with Grover and friends. Secondary purpose because the first (+ teaching refugee kids from those places, too) is ABSOLUTELY more than enough. FFS.
Also that $20 million is nothing to give poor children just a bit of hope. #FuckTrump
Has half of this country forgotten who we are to the rest of the world? This is just heartbreaking. So much hate!
No appreciation of soft power…. None. No respect for the law driven world order (which def has flaws) but provided the umbrella under which the US prospered for 80 years….
Sesame Street also taught things like proper handwashing techniques in countries in which such practices prevent diarrheal diseases in children - public health intervention too!

Like most of the countries in the Western Hemisphere from which people are fleeing to get here
