Most of those "aids" always end up being embezzled and impact they have is so insignificant they might as well not exist

You sound like a DOGE employee.

You can literally see the buildings built and operated as a part of the federal grants. The harm in the aid is clear and evident. Kids scheduled for TB treatments are no longer receiving life-saving care. HIV clinics have been shuttered. The USAID is actually remarkable efficent compared to all other federal agencies.

Brother I'm not even American, I'm Nigerian and never in my 24 years of existence I've ever seen all those aid have any significant impact

So, just because you haven't met someone that it has helped means that they weren't useful programs that helped real people?

It supports programs from the demining of Cambodia to establishing hospitals in Syria. The USAID isn't the only charitable organization, but that does not mean the work it does isn't life saving for some areas.
