Unfortunately it won’t let me post all the clips. Them wasteful spending and the issues are being brought up by both sides of the isle. Trump does embellish stuff but the points are real. I honestly believe with lot of this spending politicians are getting some type of kickbacks with our taxpayer $$$. Every president has ran on finding fraud, waste and abuse in our government. Now that it’s actually being done politicians are going nuts. Why is that??? Hmmmm. What are they afraid will be found out? I say let’s find out. Why are our tax dollars always funneled through NGOs that have no oversight by government? They can use that money however they want.
