government's budget for the entire health sector was less than $900000000.00 us dollars. so the help age or that'd be suspension of funding to help set that all through the united states. it gives you a for international development, would definitely impact on government programs and activities, especially in the l suggests and other areas that they've been carrying out in nigeria. now for example, on monday then i just in government through its president executive cause we met and deliberated on what to do next in case they, the funding stops coming from the united states. and because of that, they budgeted $1000000000.00 us dollars to bridge the gap that will come as a result of the stop each of us funds to the health sector. but again, people are questioning whether or not this would be sustainable. because if the united states government uses, pardon me, it's funding of age to the house i to imagine. and the rest of africa, that means the african countries will have to find a way of reaching the gap. so as to find those the health sector and continue to work in that particular area. now a lot of people are concerned that in the long term, governments not only imagin

have unelected and unequal billionaire and individuals seeking to really infiltrate the united states government and to do things that are harmful to all of us, regardless of what your political persuasion is. i'll just say that efficiency in government is incredibly important. we need our government to do better. but what we know and what data shows is that the quickest way the fast track to a less efficient government, a more corrupt government, one that does not run on time or work for the people, is a government like what you're seeing now where where loyalty is the calling card of the day, where civil servants are being attacked are those that, you know, people who served and engage in public service for this country under democratic administrations, under republican administrations, they're being attacked and where there is an effort to install loyalists within our federal government as opposed to those that work for the people. and so this is really a smokescreen for what is appears to be a very corrosive and harmful private agenda. and it's not any way that we are going to accomplish a g

there might be one more problem with trump's plan to have the united states government take over gaza's firing everyone in the united states government. last week, an email was sent to many federal workers offering them a buyout if they resign. the message was titled, "fork in the road." better than the original subject line, "you are completely forked." the email originally excluded people who work in intelligence because they're critical to national security. but yesterday the cia sent a buyout offer to their entire workforce. so, i guess that's a wrap on the cia. let us now bid a fond farewell to some of their finest work. ♪ ♪ [applause] and it's not just the cia being purged. because the fbi just turned over details of 5,000 employees who worked on january 6 cases, leading to fears that they could be terminated by the trump administration. at this rate, the only federal agents left are gonna be on cbs's "fbi," "fbi: most wanted," "fbi: international," and "fbi true: real agents, untold stories." and cbs has repeatedly begged the agents to tell those stories. honestly, it would be

it was the official policy of the united states government -- we made it the official policy of the unitedvernment that there are only two genders, male and female. geez, that was a tough one. some of these people say like, seven genders. i say go and name them. they've got weird stuff going on. no, there's two genders. i renamed the gulf of mexico the gulf of america, and we are restoring the name of a great president, william mckinley, to mount mckinley in alaska, in honor of the incredible people of the state of ohio, who loved their governor and the man who became president. he was the big tariff sheriff, they used to call him. maybe a lot of money. our country became very rich, and when he was assassinated, tell you roosevelt became president and spent all that money from tariffs. they built the thing called the panama canal. it has become a hot subject because china essentially has taken it over, and we are not going to let that happen.

united states what had made it very clear was upset about. he said that that will not continue any longer. i mean, invited united states government to, to try to push for more us investment in this country in exchange for allowing less a chinese investment in panama, which is something that united states has been complaining about not only in this country, but in most of latin america. let's see, and human algebra, panama city, or the mexican president has one that have some post by the trump administration. will have a grave impact on both us and mexican economies. meanwhile, kind of this brian, this adjustment crudo has responded to a 25 percent tariff imposed on $86.00 votes to the us levies of it. so kristen's lead me reports now from detroit near the canadian border denying accusations canada was not protecting its border. prime minister justin trudeau responded to the united states and position of 25 percent tariffs. with a list of counter measures. tonight, i am announcing canada will be responding to the us trade action with 25 percent terrace, against a $155000000000.00 worth of american goods and an appeal to the americ

united states. he is the person who runs the executive functions of the federal government.s tasked or delegated this to elon musk. so there are some democratic accountability, is reporting the chief of staff. and they're doing this under his egis to go and implement the president's agenda throughout the vast federal government. so there's democratic accountability here. what do you say to that? >> well, you cannot operate as an executive in a fundamentally illegal and unconstitutional way. for instance, the founding fathers were very, very confident that the spending power of the united states should not be lodged solely in the executive branch because they knew that that was fundamentally corrupt. they put congress in charge of deciding how to spend money and any conditions placed upon how that money is spent, because they knew that if somebody did what donald trump and elon musk are doing right now, that they could use that money to punish political enemies and to reward political friends, it is not lost on anybody that donald trump has only criticized projects in democra

locked away forever. >> the world's richest person is trying to take more control over the united states governmentut following the rules that govern just about every federal official, including cabinet members, because elon musk is trying to have it both ways to control government spending, cutting it, he says, unless it's going to one of his companies personnel looking at the very buildings and of course, national policy. now, elon musk has not been elected. the president can make appointments and does count musk as an advisor in an unofficial capacity. but he has not gone through any of the compliance, ethics anti-corruption efforts that cabinet members have to go through, let alone divesting like other federal officials. and now there are reports that he's pushing out one of the longest serving career officials at the treasury department, which is interesting. this doesn't go to lowering your grocery bills, but the treasury, like other parts of the government that affect donald trump and elon musk's business, including their crypto holdings, seems to be more of a priority than egg prices. the r

united states shall not provide aid or assistance to south africa. and the united states shall promote the re settlement of afrikaner, refugees escaping government sponsored race based discrimination including racially discriminatory property confiscation. it is of great concern that the foundational premise of this order lacks factual accuracy and fails to recognize south africa's profound and painful history of colonialism under pop tide. we are concerned by what seems to be a campaign of misinformation and propaganda aimed at misrepresenting a great nation. so africa argues that it's recently passed the line, the expropriation law would only be used to, to replace the property when it's in the public interest. that will court decision will be required and will be compensated. but it is not just that controversial measure the has ruffled washington. the white house statements, specifically side set off a guess, quote, aggressive position towards easel. you'll remember bad, but back in 2023. victoria i filed a genocide case against l. a. v. at the international court of justice. now a sub, i think, in a political party, the economic freedom fight as beli
