10:33Now PlayingSenator Tim Kaine just confronted the State Department with a devastating moral question: Why is the U.S. burning food meant for starving children?
In a jaw-dropping exchange, Kaine highlighted a Reuters investigation that revealed 3.5 million people’s worth of food aid sitting in warehouses after U.S. aid cuts. Among it — 500 tons of high-energy biscuits designed to keep malnourished children alive. Instead of being distributed, they expired. And now, they’re being incinerated.
Kaine’s outrage is about more than just wasted food. It’s about what this choice says about America’s priorities. At a time when tax breaks for billionaires pass easily, emergency rations for starving kids are allowed to rot and burn. As Kaine put it: Is this incompetence, or cruelty — or both?
This hearing forces us to confront the uncomfortable truth: budgets and policies are moral documents. What does it say about the “soul of our nation” when food purchased with U.S. taxpayer dollars is burned instead of feeding children in need?
