Trump Messin' With PEPFAR: Is He Tryna Leave Folks Hangin'?
They talkin' 'bout cuttin' funds for AIDS relief, but will it really hit the streets?

Aight, so check it. They sayin' folks still rockin' with PEPFAR, that program that's supposed to help fight HIV/AIDS around the world. But Trump and them tryna switch things up, and you know how that goes.
They got this poll sayin' like 74% of voters is still feelin' PEPFAR. Word is, they more likely to vote for somebody who support it. But is it really reachin' the people who need it?
This lady Jennifer Kates from KFF sayin' everybody cool with it, cause it's a moral thing. 80% of folks think it's right to help folks livin' with HIV/AIDS. But real talk, do they really care about black and brown bodies?
Trump administration tryna shuffle the money, keepin' it with the State Department instead of sharin' it with the CDC. CDC only gettin' $150 million instead of the potential $2 billion. That's messed up. Where that money really goin'?
Asia Russell from Health GAP sayin' it's like what they did with USAID, tuckin' it up under the State Department. Sound like they tryna hide somethin'.
Then they talkin' 'bout cuttin' $1.6 billion from domestic HIV programs, mainly the ones for prevention. So what, they want more folks gettin' sick? Sounds about white.
Michael Vazquez from the Maiden Group talkin' 'bout a disconnect between the politicians and the people. He said folks still committed to PEPFAR. But are they committed to the community?
They tryin' to say it's about the economy and helpin' American businesses. But real talk, it's about lookin' good on the world stage. That's it.
See, politicians always playin' games with people's lives. They don't really care about what's happenin' on the streets. They just care about lookin' good and gettin' re-elected. So is PEPFAR really doin' what it's supposed to do, or is it just another way for them to flex? Stay woke.
