Giving us another reason to eliminate it, a new report finds that 97 percent of all political donations made by USAID employees went to Democrats.
Now, why do you think it would be the case that nearly 100 percent of all political donations from USAID employees went to the left-wing, anti-American Democrats? Because there is a reason.
That reason is because they know what USAID is for. It is for delivering payoffs to extreme, left-wing people, places, things, and groups. The employees know this. And it is why they are also employees of USAID.
And this disparity is another example of why it should be eliminated.
Per the Daily Wire:
In the 2024 election cycle, USAID staff made a total of $406,790 in political contributions, according to data collected on OpenSecrets. More than half of that, $241,079, went to the former Vice President Kamala Harris. Only $999 — a quarter of a percent — went to President Donald Trump.
In all, just over $377,000, or 97%, went to Democrats, while just $12,704 went to Republicans. Open Secrets tracked all political donations of USAID employees to PACs and candidates over $200 via data from the Federal Election Commission.
These numbers highlight the political bias Trump and his team have said they need to root out from USAID. Trump on Monday said that the agency and its $50 billion annual budget were run by “radical left lunatics” who “went crazy during the Biden administration” and were giving money “to people that shouldn’t be getting” it. Elon Musk, who has been tasked with slashing federal waste through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), said the agency was “beyond repair.”
These people know that USAID is not a charitable organization. It is a slush fund for Democrats and their allies.
And it has no business being given our tax dollars.
