Trump Administration Makes Unsupported Claim About $50 Million for Condoms to Gaza

[placeholder]

President Donald Trump said his administration blocked $50 million for condoms to be sent to Gaza through its pause on foreign aid. But it has provided no evidence that $50 million was ever directed toward condoms for Gaza. The contractor identified by the State Department said it has not used U.S. aid “to procure or distribute condoms.”

Basically, Karoline Leavitt, the press secretary, made this claim at a news conference. Trump echoed it the next day. But, to date, the administration has offered absolutely no evidence to support this claim.

Were Hamas not inflating these condoms, tying granades to them and then floating them over 'the wall' (a decent sized wall that the Israelis built and paid for, unlike Trump's garden fence)........So to be fair the aid for these had to be stopped.

Where did you get that fairy tale from?

How many condoms would be needed to float a 14oz grenade (weight of a US MK67 grenade) in the air?

How dumb are you? (Rhetorical....I know the answer)

Already been proved that $45 million was sent to Gaza for sexual health and reproduction assistance. 

 

I'm going to put this guy on ignore. Demented stuff.

The money was used for two field hospitals that did a lot more than give out condoms.

 

The IMC said in a press release that it has received $68,078,508 from USAID to support its operations in Gaza since October 7, 2023. They said the resources were used to operate two large field hospitals currently located in central Gaza—one in Deir Al Balah and one in Al Zawaida — offering a combined total capacity of more than 250 beds, including 20 in the emergency room and 170 in the surgical department. These facilities have provided around-the-clock medical care to about 33,000 civilians per month.

The IMC said that since January 2024 it has provided healthcare to more than 383,000 civilians who had no other access to services or treatment, including performing about 11,000 surgeries. According to statistics provided by the IMC, they also assisted in the delivery of some 5,000 babies, screened 111,000 people for malnutrition, treated 2,767 for acute malnutrition and distributed micronutrient supplements to 36,000 people.

Refugees International President Jeremy Konyndyk, who oversaw USAID’s COVID-19 assistance portfolio for the Biden administration, refuted Trump and Leavitt’s claims Wednesday on X.

“USAID procures condoms for around $0.05 apiece,” he wrote. “$50m would be ONE BILLION condoms. What’s going on here is NOT a billion condoms for Gaza. What’going on is that the bros at DOGE apparently can’t read govt spreadsheets.”

Nice try at deflection. And it's not even clear your 45 million claim is true. Got some evidence to offer to back it up? I couldn't find any.

 

Actually, what's going on here is that proved that a few of his claims were false so he's using this as an excuse to avoid further embarrassment. Nonetheless I will carry on exposing him when he makes false claims.

But it is just more of the lies that Trump likes to put out there. Like the "beautiful " water he released from N. Cal. for L.A.. There isn't even a physical connection from that source

   Yes, there's a population explosion and a genocide going on both at the same time . 

   Could be the only time in history where there's been a genocide and the population  increased .
