Tom Cotton just got exposed by Elon for how his NGO rakes in multiple millions from USAID for “refugee services.” (there are a few other names you might recognize like Joni Ernst and Lindsay Graham.)

@DataRepublicanI’ll clarify this for you,
@charliekirk11.
Senator Tom Cotton (
@SenTomCotton) serves as a Director at the International Republican Institute (IRI), one of eight core NGOs aligned with the political establishment. While IRI is closely tied to the Republican Party, its agenda and interests fundamentally conflicts with President Trump’s policies.
Funded primarily by taxpayers, IRI received $130,689,289 last year, much of it from USAID. Though Senator Cotton is unpaid for his board role, the organization directs substantial public funds toward expenditures like travel ($12,173,741) and pensions and fringe benefits ($14,232,108).
As I’ve noted before, IRI has funded refugee resettlement through grants to the UN-affiliated International Organization for Migration and has backed other progressive initiatives.
Anyone affiliated with IRI is advancing the interests of the global elite, not the priorities of U.S. citizens or Republican constituents—unless they choose to resign from the IRI.
