Senator John Kennedy delivered a brilliant speech that should be mandatory watching for politicians across the globe.
Update: Link fixed – thanks, Joe!

Aye. Turdo must have stopped it at the border. 😉
Robert,
Is this the speech?

Don’t know what happened there! Thank you!!
MSM seem more upset that the corruption and incompetence is being expose, it’s clear that the media no longer pursue the News but are op-ed mouth pieces for the demorat machine.
I’ve watched the whole thing a few days ago and got a good chuckle, very entertaining. And he’s right. The Dem are defending the indefensible. Trans coloring books, sex change operations in Guatemala, money to terrorist organizations and poppy farmers. They are losing their minds over process and ignoring the real concerns.

I’m beginning to think the US Congress is the biggest money laundering organization in the world. USAID is just the tip of the iceberg.
I suspect the Laurentian elite are pikers compared to Congress.
for example:
Biden’s $7.5 billion investment in EV charging has only produced 7 stations in two years
Why Has Joe Biden’s $42 Billion Broadband Program Not Connected One Single Household?
Supposedly Trump has stopped these, but the US bureaucracy may still be spending on them.
Rand Paul weighs in:
And our mountain of debt will continue to pile even higher. The Congressional Budget Office predicts we
will add an average of $2.1 trillion in debt annually for the next decade. According to a July House Budget
Committee Report, the U.S. government will add over $6.4 billion of debt every single day for the next ten
years,
https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/FESTIVUS-REPORT-2024.pdf
Thus, if nothing is done to curb spending, the US debt of $36 trillion will reach $56 trillion by 2035
The Rand Paul document (link above) identifies $1 trillion in US government waste. Eliminate that and you still have to find another trillion dollars to balance the budget.
I saw a posting on Instagram yesterday and cannot verify if it is true or not, but it DOES have the ring of authenticity based on Senator Kennedy’s speech. The reel highlighted more wasteful spending to fund as follows:
1. To study if bubble wrap popping reduces stress (yes it does!) $ 1.4 million
2. Study for mailbox feng shui $ 900,000
3. Balloon animal Training (teaching prospective clowns how to make animals) $ 2.3 million
4. Natural Pretzel Untwisting $ 600,000
5. Funding for the quasi government department of sock pairing (AKA why do socks disappear in the wash?)
$ 1.8 million
6. Federal High Five Correction (are you “high fiving” correctly) $ 1.2 million
7. Study on ice cream cone structural integrity (or why do they leak from the bottom) $ 700,000
8. Study on puddle depth measuring $ 3 million
9. Bureau of Alarm clock testing $ 1.5 million
10. Federal Glitter Clean-up Task Force $ 2 million Total Expenditure of $ 15.4 million
Upon re-reading this list, perhaps this is a parody of the wasteful spending, but again I would not be surprised if these studies actually exist. If so, some people are very well connected to receive such large sums of money.
Sounds like parody, or a psyop from the Dems so they can claim fake news and thus call every story about USAID is a conspiracy theory. Thats the leftards go to response to everything..CONSPIRACY!!!
DOGE Takes Aim At Dr. Fauci, Cancels Funding For ‘Fauci Museum’

It wasn’t an actual Museum, just a $168,000 exhibit at the NIH.
I’m guessing there’s a lot of happy beagles.
The hysteria around such revelations is the strongest evidence, indeed imho it stands as proof, how integrated the swamp is, essentially a payola scheme shared amongst collectivists with taxpayers’ money, not just their political power, but their personal wealth tied into it all, now facing the prospect of having to get real jobs or properly petition the people for more of this lunatic largesse, never upset about the waste, just their own deprivation.
So, they launch lawfare with jingoistic judges making ridiculous threats against anyone carrying out the voters’ wishes, using obfuscation and obstruction to maintain the status quo, to freeze Trump until their return to their totalitarian thrones, along with ludicrous claims of “unelected” Musk, hypocrites using the unelected administrative state to wield power, unconstitutionally or otherwise illegal, now trying to radically rule from the political grave.
