Prioritizing America’s National Interests One Dollar at a Time

Excerpt:  “Americans are a hardworking and generous people, who have sacrificed their blood and treasure to help their fellow man across the globe.  But no foreign nation is entitled to those benefits, and no foreign aid program is above scrutiny.  The previously announced 90-day pause and review of U.S. foreign aid is already paying dividends to our country and our people.  We are rooting out waste.  We are blocking woke programs.  And we are exposing activities that run contrary to our national interests.  None of this would be possible if these programs remained on autopilot.  Every dollar we spend, every program we fund, and every policy we pursue must make America safer, stronger, and more prosperous.  And that is exactly what we are doing right now – prioritizing America’s core national interests one dollar at a time. … In just a few days, the Department received billions of dollars in waiver requests.  Many of those requests are still under a merit-based review as they are not considered emergency or life threatening; however, even at this early stage, over $1,000,000,000 in spending not aligned with an America First agenda has been prevented.”
