    What the heck is 'behavioural health'? Education in social skills?

    Trump issued a temporary freeze on federal grant payments today. This is a necessary move, as many of these of these grants are used to fund ridiculous left-wing projects – many not even in America!

    Let's take a look at some of them.

    Let's take a look at USAID, which to put it in perspective, only costs
    6 cents if the entire US budget was $1,000.

    Started by JFK no less whose grave Trump is always trying to rob and
    the suffering in third world countries has already begun as food and
    medicine rots.

    Get your Trump Apologizer Ray Gun ready right-wing jerk because you're
    going to be using it a lot the next few years.

    Seems a transgender community might well be prone to behavioral issues.

    More than $600,000 to UC Irvine to "influence" social media networks to try to
    get black and latinks people to accept Wuhan Flu vaccines.

    That is the only potentially good program: remember that the
    mass media machine constantly presently covid as a mere "white problem",
    and daily repeated the deadly lie that only whites were skeptical
    or opponents of covid vaccines. Hypothetically this $600,000 could
    have helped counter the media's assertion that covid was a mere
    proxy war between liberal and conservative whites.

    Of course, how it actually worked out are details not
    revealed: even though this says what the funds are for and
    ata university, it might have been simply been handed over to
    an activist group to do the opposite of what the grant is for,
    since the grants system has done this so often.

    Obviously, the grants system should be under continual
    audit, just like the Defense Department.
