Joe Biden announced this week that he’s sending $1 billion in foreign aid to countries in Africa and another $725 million to Ukraine. Meanwhile, American victims of Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina are still sleeping on the ground in tents as winter sets in.
This nonsense ends on January 20, 2025. President Donald Trump’s overall economic plan—dubbed MAGAnomics by some—is going to restore prosperity to the American people once again.
Some of this is going to happen very quickly. Some will happen over time. But he is the only person with a plan to do this.
Real, fundamental change in the way the United States functions in the world is coming. Most people don’t even understand how this will happen. Most Members of Congress are in a panic right now, because they feel it at a gut level.
“But we’ve always done it this way!” is the excuse that we’ll be hearing a lot in the coming months. The genius of MAGAnomics is that just because we’ve been doing something a certain way since the end of World War II, does not mean it’s a good idea to continue doing it today.
When Joe Biden or any other politician takes money out of your wallet and sends it overseas, what you’re seeing is the Marshall Plan still in action. The Marshall Plan was implemented in 1948. The US economy was booming after World War II. The central idea of the Marshall Plan was that we would take our own economic success and use it to help rebuild the economies in Western Europe that had been smashed by the war.
It was hailed as a massive success. The American taxpayers sent $16 billion to help 15 countries in Europe rebuild. That would be the equivalent of what we’ve paid for the Ukraine war in the past two years in today’s dollars ($196 billion) if you want to get really hot under the collar.
The Marshall Plan technically came to an end in 1952. The European economies were standing on their own two feet. Success!
Except the Marshall Plan didn’t end. The US government simply continued it under the guise of “foreign aid.” When Joe Biden announces that he’s sending $1 billion to Africa—most of which will end up in the pockets of corrupt politicians—that’s the Marshall Plan in action. That is what President Trump plans to finally end, for the betterment of all Americans.
NATO is another example of the Marshall Plan continuing to this day. NATO’s 2024 budget provided by its 32 member nations totaled $1.47 trillion. The American taxpayers provided two-thirds of that, approximately $967 billion. That’s not even including the ridiculous sums we’ve sent to Ukraine because Ukraine is not (and now never will be) a NATO country.
People are scoffing at the idea that Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) will be able to cut $2 trillion from the federal budget. If you just eliminate NATO funding and the Department of Education, that’s $1.6 trillion right there.
The purpose of NATO was to protect Western European countries from the communist expansion of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The Soviet Union fell apart 33 years ago!
The federal government sent 3.4% of our entire economy to NATO this year. Why are we propping up the economies of European countries to protect them against a threat that no longer exists? Why can’t Iceland and France pay for their own defense budgets? How is this still our problem 80 years after World War II ended and 33 years after the Soviet Union stopped being a thing?
Not included in NATO spending is all the rest of the foreign aid that the Biden regime has doled out. They’ve doled out $70 billion to foreign countries in 2024. That includes $12 billion for Ukraine (not including any war funding), $3.3 billion for Israel, $2 billion for Ethiopia, and $1.4 billion for the freakin’ Taliban in Afghanistan!
Mexico is now a wealthy country because of all its oil revenues. Can anyone explain why we sent them $235 million in foreign aid this year? Meanwhile, hurricane victims in America got $750.
This is insane. This needs to end and it will end. Much of it will end immediately on January 20, 2025. It will suck for terrorist countries like Afghanistan and France, but America will be much better off when Donald Trump finally ends the Marshall Plan.
