Trump Administration Blocks Biden’s Gaza Funding Plan

The Trump administration has halted a $50 million funding plan approved by the Biden administration for distributing condoms in Gaza. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that the funding plan was discovered during the first week of Trump’s presidency by the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).

DOGE and OMB’s Findings

According to Leavitt, “DOGE and OMB found that $37 million was about to be sent to the World Health Organization (WHO). Additionally, $50 million in taxpayer funds were earmarked for condoms in Gaza, a preposterous waste of taxpayer money.” However, she did not provide concrete evidence to support the claim.

Hamas Using Condoms as Improvised Weapons?

Reports indicate that Hamas militants in Gaza have allegedly used condoms filled with flammable gas as makeshift weapons, launching them toward southern Israel. Following this revelation, Elon Musk reacted with humor, saying, “Explains why all condom orders were ‘Magnum’!” referring to a brand of extra-large condoms.

Former Biden Official Refutes Claim

Andrew Miller, former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Israeli-Palestinian Affairs, dismissed the claim as “outlandish.” He stated, “It is possible that million was allocated for sexual health programs, including gynecology and other services, but definitely not solely for condoms.”

Temporary Halt on Federal Grants

The Trump administration is currently reviewing federal grants, loans, and aid to ensure alignment with Trump’s executive orders. The review of Gaza-related funding is part of this broader initiative.
