Secretary of State Marco Rubio just schooled liberal politicians trying to defend America’s wasteful spending. During a fiery Senate hearing, Rubio unleashed a list of insane overseas programs your tax dollars funded—until President Trump’s administration slashed them.
Rubio exposed $12 million spent teaching foreign rappers in Afghanistan to make “pro-democracy” music videos. He shut down $500,000 in grants for a Pakistani theater group doing LGBTQ puppet shows. Remember your gas prices? Your money was financing solar-powered yurts for Mongolian goat herders.
While China builds military bases, Democrats wanted $28 billion for climate lectures in European colleges. Rubio canceled $47 million in “gender studies” workshops for Middle Eastern oil tycoons. The Trump team axed $900 million funding salsa dance classes in Cuba disguised as “cultural exchange.”
Elon Musk helped dismantle the bloated USAID bureaucracy wasting billions on “sensitivity training” for African dictators. Now that money funds border security and veteran healthcare. Rubio warned that every dollar sent overseas is a dollar stolen from American workers.
Liberal Senator Chris Van Hollen screamed about “abandoning global leadership.” But Rubio fired back: “Leadership means putting Americans first, not bankrolling drag queen story hours in Baghdad.” The administration closed 23 redundant embassies pushing woke programs instead of protecting U.S. interests.
China’s laughing as weak politicians defend funding yoga retreats for U.N. bureaucrats. Rubio proved real strength comes from cutting parasites—not writing blank checks to corrupt foreign regimes. The State Department stopped being a global ATM for every dictator’s pet project.
America’s finally getting smart: no more $6 million for Indonesian TikTok influencers to lecture about recycling. No more $3 billion for Ukrainian art museums while our cities crumble. Rubio’s list shows Trump’s team isn’t just saving money—they’re saving our national pride.
These cuts aren’t about numbers. They’re about stopping the globalist rot that treated hardworking Americans like suckers. While Democrats whine, patriots cheer leaders who put America’s wallet—and dignity—first.
