Petty and Evil

As you are no doubt aware, the Trump administration has cut off billions in foreign aid.

One of the particular cases is particularly egregious, they are going to pay taxpayer funds to destroy a warehouse full of contraception despite the fact that other countries and private organization offered to deliver this aid to the people need this.

They just hate women:

The Trump administration is set to destroy a large stockpile of U.S.-funded contraceptives stored at a warehouse in Belgium, which says it has “explored all possible options to prevent the destruction.”

The family-planning supplies, which include more than 50,000 intrauterine devices, nearly 2 million doses of injectable contraceptives, nearly 900,000 implantable contraceptive devices and more than 2 million packets of oral birth control, are worth about $9.7 million, according to an internal accounting in April, The Washington Post reported.

“The State Department confirms that a preliminary decision was made to destroy certain abortifacient birth control commodities from terminated Biden-era USAID contracts,” a spokesperson said in a statement.

“Only a limited number of commodities have been approved for disposal,” said the spokesperson, who spoke on the condition of anonymity under rules set by the department. “No HIV medications or condoms are being destroyed.”
