South Africa is another fine example of the miracle of socialism. It's also a fine example of the utter stupidity and hate America that is our Ivy League led State Department and Janet Yellen. The last thing that the collapsing nation of South Africa needs is a billion dollars for climate change and electric vehicles that will just be stolen by the theftocrats that run the country.

After billions in US aid (including a recent $1 billion pledge), South Africa is conducting joint military exercises with Russia and China
By Thomas Lifson
South Africa, alas, is not our friend. Despite decades of financial and moral support from the United States, South Africa is drifting into alignment with our rivals for global supremacy. Daniel Greenfield reports for Front Page Magazine:
In November 2022, Climate Envoy John Kerry announced a giveaway of $1 billion in foreign aid to South Africa. The failed racist state which regularly suffers blackouts from its socialist power system was being offered billions to subsidize electric cars and green energy.
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen claimed that “President Ramaphosa and the South African Government have created a bold plan identifying a clear strategy for achieving South Africa’s most ambitious climate targets.”
In reward for that $1 billion and the billions in foreign aid dispensed over the years, South Africa is conducting joint military exercises with China and Russia.
The Biden administration had little to say except that it was “concerned”, but wasn’t about to tear up that $1 billion check to make sure that a crime-ridden country with $500 million in car thefts a year has all the electric cars its car thieves need to steal and resell.
