TX Rep. Beth Van Duyne comments on the situation surrounding USAID, which Trump has essentially shutdown.
More on USAID. Guess what...there's no "aid" in USAID!! It's not an aid organization. It's an activist organization spending our money all around the world, and now President Trump has essentially shut it down. "Foundation For Freedom Online" founder Mike Benz describes USAID this way: "There is no aid in USAID. Your brain is being tricked when you see the phrase "USAID." It's not an aid organization. USAID stands for US Agency for International Development. What it's developing internationally is all of the institutions that the State Department needs to use. When they are capacity-building activist groups in a foreign country, it is because the State Department wants those activists there."
