And they're so gracious with their time to come to my office and help me understand the issues of the day and how the administration is responding to them. And then, of course, I talk to the president daily as well. I'm with him a lot of time throughout the day. So I really have a good understanding of what he's thinking and how he's feeling. And he's the best boss. He gives it to you straight.
And he's a very direct communicator himself. And again, he is out there being the most accessible president in history, taking questions from the press almost daily. And so I think everybody understands where this president stands on the problems that our country is facing. And they understand what this administration is doing to solve them.

So it's a lot of information to absorb because there's a lot of news coming out of this White House every day. But it's all good news because the president is delivering on his priorities. So it's very exciting for me to go out there and share them and speak on behalf of the president of the United States.

Yes. Unfortunately, USAID has become a federal government agency funded by the taxpayers, but run by, as the president said, radical left lunatics who have been spending money on needless, insane priorities overseas that do nothing to advance America's interests abroad. And so this administration has streamlined USAID into the Department of State and And we have a freeze on foreign aid.

The president issued that with an executive order. And so now Secretary Rubio is overseeing USAID. And his team at the State Department is going line by line to – oversee and review some of the wasteful spending, the fraud and the abuse throughout the entire State Department.

But particularly at USAID, the State Department and our Doge team here at the White House have found just egregious violations of the American tax people's money. You had millions of dollars going out the door for LGBTQ programs in foreign countries. That does nothing, again, to advance our national security interests here at home, nothing to advance humanitarian causes abroad.

So this administration is going to run the federal business, the federal government, like a business. And business owners across the country have to go line by line, money in, money out, examining their priorities. And that's exactly what this administration is doing.

56% of Americans, according to a new Reuters poll, support the president's freeze on foreign aid. And so the Democrats who are hooting and hollering all over Washington, D.C. about this are just proving they learned nothing in the last election. They continue to be incredibly out of touch with where the American people are on these very important issues. And the president is not fazed by the.

outrage by the left, which is, again, incredibly misplaced. Where was the outrage by Democrats for North Carolinians and people in California who lost everything because of natural disasters and received nothing in return from the previous administration?
