>So to counter "we don’t have any evidence that U.S. assistance is being misused or misspent" with a "doesn't matter if there's no evidence, it's happening!"

I didn't mean to imply that I'm certain it's happening. If I had to bet, I'd say that some of it is being misused. How much, I couldn't tell you. But any time large amounts of money are involved will multiple levels of administration and bureaucracy, some of that money is misused. Whether some of the money is legit being stolen, or some of it is being wasted to meet a quota (like in the US military), there is always some sort of bullshit going on when there is enough people, and enough money involved.

I'm not certain it's happening, but I would bet that it is in some form. Also, no evidence doesn't mean it's debunked.

But thank you for explaining your views on it, truly.

Everything that questions the liberal narrative is a GOP talking point apparently.

All that you're doing is building walls between people, making it seem like there is truly only two camps of belief. It's ineffective and does more harm than good.

Consider debating the points made instead of using gotcha catchphrases.

Edit: I got a little fired up. It's just that I don't fall within either of the traditional party lines, and people irl have used "that's a republican talking point" to shut down some valid points/questions I've had. My comment stands but I wanted to explain why it seems I took it personally.

>dad was like im glad you didnt pull that fucking thing into the boat
