This week, an important hearing took place in the House Judiciary Committee, focusing on a significant concern that many hardworking Americans over the age of 60 can relate to: the misuse of taxpayer dollars by leftist nonprofit organizations, particularly through agencies like USAID. For decades, families like yours have entrusted the government with your hard-earned money, expecting it to be used to support genuine American values and interests. Unfortunately, as this hearing unveiled, this expectation has been violated time and again.
The story of USAID is not merely an administrative issue; it’s a tale of betrayal where taxpayer funds have been diverted to promote radical agendas instead of aiding those genuinely in need. A shocking example discussed during the hearing involved a scandal connected to child sex trafficking in India. Despite the critical work of courageous investigators, an organization funded by USAID pressured victims back into a life of horror—a tragedy that highlights the agency’s fundamental failure.
This pattern of abuse is not new. USAID has continually funded initiatives that many of us find morally unacceptable, such as a “transgender opera” and aid to the Taliban, all while ignoring pressing crises that threaten our national security. This agency, initially established to combat global threats and promote American ideals, has been hijacked by those more interested in social engineering than in helping the very people they claim to support.
Under President Trump, we witnessed a bold move to cut funding to this agency, reflecting a commitment to accountability and a rejection of the status quo that has neglected the needs of Americans. However, as the hearing pointed out, real change requires congressional action to dismantle this rogue agency altogether. Keeping USAID intact would only perpetuate a culture of waste, corruption, and hostility toward the values that many of us hold dear.
For too long, the voices of hardworking, blue-collar Americans—who form the backbone of this nation—have been drowned out by elites in Washington and their allies in mainstream media and academia. This issue with USAID is a rallying point, a prime opportunity for us to demand accountability and advocate for a government that works for the American people, not against them.
As staunch supporters of the principles championed by President Trump, it is crucial to call on Congress to take a stand. Let us urge our representatives to prioritize the American taxpayer and dismantle any institution that contradicts our values and interests. Our nation’s future depends on it, and we owe it to ourselves and future generations to fight for an honest and accountable government.
