The globalist prime minister of Australia, who has a history of anti-Trump bashing, is now reportedly devastated that Donald Trump cut U.S. funding to Australian universities.
Leaving aside the obvious fact that American taxpayers shouldn’t be funding any foreign universities, it is amusing to note how leftist foreign leaders with a track record of sneering at and criticizing Americans are suddenly panicked by the loss of American money, either via grant terminations or tariffs. Apparently we were supposed to be the world‘s wallet endlessly, no matter how much other nations abused and used us.

Are you kidding me? We are financing universities in Australia? W.T.H.! No wonder this country is drowning in debt. Years ago I read Uncle Sugar was sending money to 110 countries and I'd bet there are more now. It needs to be stopped. NOW.

Why would we be funding ANY universities in Australia? What have they done for us lately? What “research” could they be doing that would possibly be of any use to us? This needs to end permanently.
I think they still owe us - and the 1st Marine Division - for keeping the Japanese off of them in WWII.

Actually, I would bet there are plenty of countries who give money to our universities...China, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan. We should probably cut these funds also.

I’m still trying to understand why U.S. taxpayers are giving money to PRIVATE universities in the U.S. who have BILLIONS in their endowment funds. Especially when so much of what they teach is antithetical to our values. When/why did this start, and why should it continue?

Tell the American people once again why the Social Security system is going broke in the Year 2035? 2032? 20...... I don't know, pick a number! We are constantly bombarded with gloom and doom regarding SS, and how it is unsustainable - yet in the past 2 months we are learning there are hundreds of billions being stolen, squandered, hidden, lost, abused, etc. It will be interesting to know how many dead people are still collecting checks each month - and who is stealing that money? I'm not so sure I want Trump being sent 'one big beautiful bill' this summer by Congress, as they show no sign of belt tightening, or the least bit of concern about waste and fraud. I think we can all agree every penny of our money Congress spends has some type of a kickback going into their campaign coffers and/or hidden bank accounts. How else can so many congressional members be multi millionaires on a meager, low 6-figure salary?

Australia? So we’re probably funding every other “university” in the world as well? And they all collude to undermine western civilization with their critical theory nonsense. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!

Oh, drat! Now we'll never find out if kangaroos can be taught to skateboard and if left-handed albino koalas are homophobic.

Apparently Australians forgot the period in the 1970's when they thought the welfare state was the way to run a country and ended up with 50% of the population going to the beach every day instead of working. The country almost went under. (pun intended)

We should NOT be sending one red cent to a foreign university, especially since they are just about guaranteed to be teaching leftist crap and hate-America.

On the Daily Mail, the most anti American and hateful comments about our country at this time are coming from AU posters. They hate us. Also they are very snobby over there and they actually do have some seriousl problems with racism.

Albanese has used very disparaging language against Americans, and I take it personal. He is as bad as Mark Carney of Canada, who thinks he is suave, and a European. None of these people have ever been our friends, only our resentful dependents. We need to balance our budget, and we can do that by not sending money to Australia, Canada, EU, UK, Ukraine, and Democrat NGO's and nonprofits. I do not want a trinket from the UK to be in the Commonwealth, which is only a ruse to cost American taxpayers more money.

Oh FGS sake they’re not funding our universities they’re funding research at those universities there’s a huge difference. Australian scientist have made some groundbreaking medical discoveries in the past why don’t you want the USA to be part of them? Once you stop funding other countries like China will swoop in and you’ll be locked out.
