Good day all. With the shut down of one of the major Democrat money machines, USAID, the NGO\u2019s that have been living large on the taxpayer\u2019s dimes are running out of money. Now these Non-Governmental Organizations are trying to find other sources of money.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

You would think that for a Non-Governmental Organization, they would be getting most of their operating fund through donations. This doesn\u2019t seem to be an accurate assumption. These NGO\u2019s were getting most, if not all their funding from the American taxpayers. Now it looks like the NGO\u2019s have started hitting up all the rich liberals who have been attending all their functions in the past. The problem? It looks like the wallets are closed. Here are the details from Newsmax<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n

Charitable organizations that relied on U.S. foreign assistance are looking to different private and public donors now that the Trump administration suspended nearly all foreign aid contracts. <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Let me get this out of the way. If a Non-Governmental Organization gets most or all of it\u2019s funding from the Government, it\u2019s not a Non-Governmental Organization, it\u2019s a government organization. Considering which NGO\u2019s have been getting the money, pretty much exclusively left-wing Progressive groups, the NGO\u2019s have been pretty much an arm of the Democrat Party for decades. Now, back to the Newsmax story<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Past giving patterns suggest such a lifeline is unlikely. The United States was the world\u2019s largest single funder of foreign aid, and neither other governments nor private foundations are in a position to fill the gap, according to program executives, aid researchers and nonprofit workers. <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Experts in international development say that along with lost funding, the administration\u2019s dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development deprives the field of political leadership and expertise that will be difficult to replace. <\/b><\/p>\n

Considering that the \u201cPolitical leadership\u201d was pretty much owned by the likes of the World Economic Forum and George Soros, I consider this a good thing.<\/p>\n

Experts say the international humanitarian assistance system has essentially operated on the back of U.S. benevolence. What seems like the sudden end of that era has shut down life-saving programs around the world and triggered an existential crisis for the international development sector. <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

One of the things that DOGE has been doing is following the money. They, along with other groups, have discovered that most of that money never actually reached the people it was allegedly aimed at. Instead, it ended up funding the life styles of the NGO\u2019s management as well as hundreds of consultants who generated millions of pages of reports that were never actually read.<\/p>\n

The U.S. accounted for $64 billion, or 28% of the $223 billion in official development assistance that governments provided in 2023, according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. Also known as overseas aid, those funds could go directly to other countries, to humanitarian aid, to fund the work of the United Nations or to help refugees. <\/b><\/p>\n

Actually, it went into the personal bank accounts of assorted Third World government officials and was also used to help known terrorist groups such as HAMAS.<\/p>\n

Private organizations and individuals would essentially need to double their gifts to make up for USAID cuts: private donations that crossed borders totaled $70 billion in 2020, the most recent year of available data in the Global Philanthropy Tracker from Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy. <\/b><\/p>\n

Even if all private donors gave twice as much, coordinating their activities would be a major task, and it’s unclear what organization would take that on. <\/b><\/p>\n

There is also another issue with these private foundations. They actually expect results and will audit the NGO\u2019s to make sure they aren\u2019t wasting money on things the foundations don\u2019t approve of, like a fleet of private jets taking NGO management to junkets in Paris.<\/p>\n

Rob Nabors, the North America director for the Gates Foundation, described the scale of the challenges facing nonprofit groups that focus on global health. <\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no foundation \u2014 or group of foundations \u2014 that can provide the funding, workforce capacity, expertise, or leadership that the United States has historically provided to combat and control deadly diseases and address hunger and poverty around the world,\u201d Nabors said in a statement.<\/b><\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t the United States. It was the American Taxpayers who were forced on pain of prison, ruination and potentially death if they did provide the money.<\/p>\n

The world’s richest countries agreed at the United Nations in 1970 to spend 0.7% of their gross national product on development aid. Few countries ever reached the target, and many now are pulling back from it. <\/b><\/p>\n

There is a reason for this. Several actually. First, this was meant to fight the Soviet Union. Second, the other countries were and are spending all their money internally. Third, it didn\u2019t do any good. Most of the money was flat out stolen.<\/p>\n

The U.S. cuts have brought new attention to efforts to reform how foreign aid works.<\/b><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a reform most Americans support. End it.<\/p>\n

Few critics of the foreign aid sector have welcomed the consequences of the Trump administration’s cuts. <\/b><\/p>\n

For example, the nonprofit Unlock Aid has argued that too much U.S. foreign aid spending goes through large contractors in Washington and that USAID was not doing enough to hold them accountable for achieving results. <\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Keep going. You\u2019re very close to what the problem is. Come on, you can do it! No? Ok. The entire system was set up to allow certain groups and individuals to basically loot the American treasury. It was never really meant to help boost other countries. In those cases where people actually intended to do just that, it was done by stereotypical \u201cUgly Americans.\u201d Almost all of them, at least these days, tended to be Progressive Liberal whites. These days they have a new name. Karens.<\/p>\n

Unlock Aid has proposed more cooperation with beneficiary countries to allow them to help set priorities and stricter transparency requirements for grantees. <\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cI think that those who care about foreign aid investments need to put together an inspiring vision for what a new future can look like that Americans can get behind,\u201d said Walter Kerr, the co-executive director of Unlock Aid. <\/b><\/p>\n

You\u2019re missing the point. The money taps have gone dry. There is no more money. People have been seeing that money that should have been going to help Americans recover from natural disasters was being sent out of the country. (And into Swiss, Maltese and Cayman bank accounts)<\/p>\n

Billions of dollars that should be going to help people hit by Hurricane Helene and the fires in Kalifornistan, as well as other areas were instead directed to transgender studies in Pakistan. When people saw where the money was going, along with the Biden Maladministration actively denying Trump supporters any assistance needed to recover they blew a gasket. The result?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The United States is almost broke. President Trump was reelected to destroy the Deep State\u2019s money laundering system and that is just what he is doing, using the tools provided by Elon Musk and DOGE.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You keep saying people are going to be hurt. No one believes you any more, or cares. We\u2019re going to take care of ourselves now. The United States is starting to return to its semi-isolationist status. We will stand by our friends, (Israel, Taiwan, Japan for instance). As for the rest? Good luck and have a nice day.<\/p>\n
