The debate over money in politics is defined by a core tension between the ideals of transparency, privacy, and mandated disclosure. Proponents of robust transparency and disclosure requirements (especially America Firsters) argue that voters have a fundamental right to know who is funding candidates, parties, and issue advocacy, as undisclosed “dark money” from wealthy individuals, corporations, unions, or foreign-linked entities can distort democratic outcomes, enable corruption or undue influence, and facilitate implementation of leftwing policies funded by US taxpayers without authorization or scrutiny. They push for lower reporting thresholds, real-time disclosures, and the closing of loopholes like super PACs and 501(c) organizations to let sunlight act as a disinfectant.

The State Department worked with charities such as Samaritan’s Purse, World Vision and Catholic Relief Services to avoid the confusion that occurred in the successful response to the January 12, 2010, earthquake in Haiti.

For decades, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has been America’s feel-good, do-good, taxpayer-funded piggy bank—or at least, that’s what they want you to believe.
