On February 13th, 2025 the US House Comittee on Foreign Affairs met to discuss USAID and the out of control spending present in that agency. USAID is an easy target, with many media outlets and commentators assuming that the agency is nothing but fraud, waste, and/or abuse, but the agency does do some really good things as well. Ebola prevention, AIDS treatment and prevention, and PEPFAR come to mind as positives in the programs. That said, there is plenty of corruption, waste, and fraud present in the MANY programs financed by USAID. Shawn has provided the best time stamps for us to find out the meat and potatoes of this hearing without the cauliflower and other vile vegetables. Let's Dig In!
