USAID was founded by JFK to fight the Kremlin -- by helping countries all over the world, rather than having them fall under Soviet dominance. The Kremlin has wanted to kill USAID ever since. Don't fall for anti-USAID propaganda -- it all comes from PUTIN.

Jaw dropping concept-but totally predictable That FBI agents must sue to protect themselves from the president and his allies It’s exactly what you’d expect after he pardoned all the criminals who battered 140 police on January 6 But it doesn’t make it any less disgusting
