The White House, through Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, criticized the Biden administration for its reckless foreign aid spending, linking it to rising inflation in the U.S. Leavitt pointed to specific expenditures, including $37 million to the WHO and $50 million for Gaza Condom programs, calling them wasteful.

00:00When President Trump swiftly directed his team to issue harsh

00:03and effective sanctions and tariffs on the Colombian government,

00:14untangle our economy from Biden's regulatory constraints

00:18and end the reckless war on American energy.

00:33Past four years, we've seen the Biden administration spend money like drunken sailors.

00:37It's a big reason we've had an inflation crisis in this country,

00:40and it's incumbent upon this administration to make sure,

00:43again, that every penny is being accounted for honestly.

00:48You know, just during this pause, DOGE and OMB have actually found that there was $37 million

01:07that was about to go out the door to the World Health Organization, which is an organization,

01:13as you all know, that President Trump, with the swipe of his pen in that executive order,

01:17is no longer wants the United States to be a part of. So that wouldn't be in line with the

01:20president's agenda. DOGE and OMB also found that there was about to be $50 million taxpayer dollars

01:26that went out the door to fund condoms in Gaza. That is a preposterous waste of taxpayer money.

01:32So that's what this pause is focused on, being good stewards of tax dollars.

01:47We will continue to provide that list as it comes to fruition, but OMB right now is focused on

02:04analyzing the federal government's spending, which is exactly what the American people

02:08elected President Trump to do. Last night, President Trump plunged the country into chaos

02:14without a shred of warning. The Trump administration announced a halt to virtually

02:20all federal funds across the country. Funds for things like disaster assistance,

02:27local law enforcement, rural hospitals, aid to the elderly, food for people in need.

02:33All are on the chopping block in this new administration.

02:51In an instant, Donald Trump has shut off billions, perhaps trillions of dollars

02:59that directly support states, cities, towns, schools, hospitals, small businesses,

03:07and most of all, American families. This is a dagger at the heart of the average American

03:13family in red states, in blue states, in cities, in suburbs, in rural areas. It is just outrageous.

03:30So

03:40don't miss out. Log on to OneIndia.com for more updates.
