    Your list;
    • $70,000 for production of a "DEI musical" in Ireland.
    Contract Exist: No?
    Echopulse: 0
    Gwb-trading: 1


    USAID is part of the State Department so technically is does exist but I will give you this one.

    • $2.5 million for electric vehicles in Vietnam.
    • $47,000 for a "transgender opera" in Colombia.
    • $32,000 for a "transgender comic book" in Peru.
    • $6 million to fund tourism in Egypt.
    ADDED FROM THE FUCKING ARTICLE:
    • “$1.5 million to ‘advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities’”
    • “$2 million for sex changes and ‘LGBT activism’ in Guatemala”
    • “Hundreds of thousands of dollars for a nonprofit linked to designated terrorist organizations — even AFTER an inspector general launched an investigation”
    • “Millions to EcoHealth Alliance — which was involved in research at the Wuhan lab”
    • “Hundreds of thousands of meals that went to al-Qaeda-affiliated fighters in Syria”
    • “Funding to print ‘personalized’ contraceptives birth control devices in developing countries”
    • “Hundreds of millions of dollars to fund ‘irrigation canals, farming equipment, and even fertilizer used to support the unprecedented poppy cultivation and heroin production in Afghanistan,’ benefiting the Taliban”

    We are merely starting with five. Once you admit the first five do not exist and are not USAID contracts then we can go through the rest of the list.

    So -- do you admit that the following five are not USAID contacts:
    • $70,000 for production of a "DEI musical" in Ireland.
    • $2.5 million for electric vehicles in Vietnam.
    • $47,000 for a "transgender opera" in Colombia.
    • $32,000 for a "transgender comic book" in Peru.
    • $6 million to fund tourism in Egypt.

    Thanks for admitting that none of these five are USAID contracts. It's good to know that you recognize I am right.

    It's sad that you don't comprehend facts.

    Remember -- repeating the same fabricated crap over and over doesn't make you appear smart or to be correct. It merely make you look like a retarded parrot.

    • $70,000 for production of a "DEI musical" in Ireland. State Department contract
    • $2.5 million for electric vehicles in Vietnam. USAID contract exist

      Fact-Checker Verbatim Quote:
      This was for more than electric vehicles. USAID launched a $2.5 million fund that provided awards up to $100,000 to organizations with promising new products, business models, or financing models in Danang or Ho Chi Minh cities.

      Other evidence:
      https://www.dai.com/news/us-climate...-project-for-innovation-challenge-fund-launch The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has launched a $2.5 million Innovation Challenge Fund in Vietnam called “Tomorrow’s Energy Creators,” designed to catalyze solutions to urban energy challenges. U.S. Climate Envoy John Kerry, U.S. Ambassador Marc Knapper, and others attended the launch event where the first five awardees were announced.

    Let's quote the Washington Post article:

    “$2.5 million for electric vehicles for Vietnam”

    This is wrong. This was for more than electric vehicles. USAID launched a $2.5 million fund that provided awards up to $100,000 to organizations with promising new products, business models, or financing models in Danang or Ho Chi Minh cities. The fund was part of a larger effort to bring green energy to a country that is one of the world’s fastest-growing per capita greenhouse gas emitters. China has a head start on green energy, but the United States has sought to keep Vietnam out of China’s orbit, so the program was intended to boost the U.S. brand in green energy.
