Department of Government Efficiency @DOGE - Just a single example of some of the egregious USAID spend we audited. And, to add insult to injury, @nayibbukele doesn’t even want it!

Contracts Update!
Over the last 5 days, agencies terminated 163 wasteful contracts with a ceiling value of $1.9B and savings of $647M, including, a $35M USAID contract to “acquire contractor support to establish and manage a flexible, quick response mechanism supporting activities that will support democracy and stability in El Salvador”, a $280k DOI contract for “horse mounted patrol groom services”, a $102k DOT contract for an “assessment specialist academics provost office”, a $179k State Dept. contract for “customized English language training to the US embassy in Yerevan, Armenia”, and a $25k DOI contract to “provide facilitation, collaborative problem solving services”.

Department of Government Efficiency @DOGE - Good question.

More riddles for @RoKhanna. The President of El Salvador came to the same conclusion as DOGE and celebrated the shutdown of USAID. Are you accusing the President who reduced his country’s murder rate by 95% of supporting the murder of children?

Department of Government Efficiency @DOGE - @RoKhanna is always about partisan politics masquerading as analysis. Fortunately, facts prevail.

Except that they didn’t and you know it. Those fake Soros-funded studies assumed USAID’s life-saving programs were totally defunded. That was a total and disgusting lie. As @SecRubio said, the foreign assistance review preserved life-saving work while cutting waste and realigning development and governance programs to America First interests.
Since then, the @StateDept has totally rebuilt our lifesaving aid portfolio, investing billions into more efficient and accountable aid that saves lives without the terrorist diversion and NGO theft Biden allowed:
- Launched the America First Global Health Strategy, bypassing the NGO industrial complex to sign 32 bilateral health compacts with largely African countries, representing more than $20 billion in U.S. and partner co-investment (largest ever mobilization of African domestic resources for health)
- Our work with UNOCHA has, by the UN’s own figures (not an org that loved us), supported lifesaving aid for nearly 40 million de-duplicated real people this year alone ($3.8 billion) and made humanitarian aid more than twice as efficient at saving lives per dollar
- We provided 3 million people with the two-dose regimen for U.S. company Gilead Sciences’ twice yearly HIV prevention drug Lenacapavir
- We provided 60 million people with protection from malaria via SC Johnson’s innovative Guardian spatial repellant product
- We recently provided $1 billion to support the World Food Programme and UNICEF’s lifesaving work, with new accountability reforms
- Provided $370 million and counting to combatting Ebola in the Congo (largest county by far, see recent G7 statement)
- Mounted a widely lauded response to category 5 Hurricane Melissa in the Caribbean last year
- Pledged $4.6 billion to the global fund to fight HIV, partnering with them to lower PEPFAR’s supply chain overhead by 3x and drive country self reliance
… and so much more all publicly available …
Why post old fake studies and not have a real conversation? Because it doesn’t serve your redistributive aims?

Elon, how about just paying the 5% instead of hurling random insults?
And here are the facts, man. Your USAID cuts did this:
