'Visibility Into Granularity" is USAID Director Samantha Power's new trademark

Thursday, May 18

Sometimes the Beltway lingo collapses under the weight of its own idiocy. Yesterday was such a day when Congressman Michael Waltz asked USAID Director Samantha Powers if U.S. money was going to terrorists in Afghanistan. The Director reframed his "yes or no" question into "Congressman, I think you are asking for more visibility into the granularity' of U.N. controls on American aid dollars." He wasn't, and he said so, but wow, what a phrase. Plus Senator Josh Hawley talks about his new book "Manhood."
