Kennedy is pulling funding for Gavi (world vaccination program)

And?
Is there a reason why the American people are supposed to pay for
this stuff?
Just because you think something is a good idea -- this vaccination
program -- doesn't entitle you to impose the cost on the United
States.
Quite frankly, the United States isn't paying it's bills. The United
States can't afford to do what it's doing and it has to borrow
money. So the solution is to STOP spending money we don't have on
people who aren't Americans.
You almost get this, right?  You can see how a parent's FIRST and
FOREMOST responsibility is to their own children, and only after
they are fed, clothed & housed can they start worrying about every
else's kids.
You "Get" this, right?
Well the United States isn't doing that.
California spend billions -- literally BILLIONS OF DOLLARS --
educating illegal aliens in their school system, yet didn't have
the money to fully fund basic public services, like the L.A.
fire department.
Google it. Pretend you have the least bit of curiosity & that you
care about reality, and Google it. Google the cost per student in
their school system. Google the number of children of illegal aliens
in their school.
Do. The. Math.
It's literally unsustainable! Not figuratively, LITERALLY! Spending
countless billions upon billions upon billion on into hundreds of
billions EVERY YEAR on the citizens and governments of other countries,
while failing to meet obligations here at home, to our own citizens.
So, yes, health programs are good but what you mouth breathing cunts
are "Arguing" here is that they're not good enough to pay for, so
the American people have to do it.
  that has

vaccinated more than a billion children and likely saved over 14 million lives.  This isn't stupid military aid this is peaceful good the US was contributing to around the world.

 latest study on efficacy of covid vaccination in 2023.  Unvaccinated still have around twice the likelihood of critical illness, and nearly all of the unvaccinated have likely been infected at least once by now. When vaccination started the unvaccinated were dying at 10 times the rate as the vaccinated that got infected.  You could still get covid after  vaccination, but you were a lot less likely to die if you were infected.
