The History of USAID & Family Planning NGO's w/ Aidan Grogan || EP 1542

Aidan Grogan joins Josh to discuss how the recently dismantled USAID has been funding family planning NGOs, like the International Planned Parenthood Federation and the Population Council, for decades.  They discuss their history, and how they used funding from USAID to help drive global population control efforts in developing countries. Those efforts led to disastrous policies like the one child policy in China, involuntary sterilizations, and abortions in populations across the world. They also discuss how these efforts have helped to create the low birth rate problem that many countries are now facing and its impact on the future.    Aidan's article in The Daily Economy:   Global NGOs Use Your Tax Dollars to Manipulate Poor Nations' Birth Rates | The Daily Economy   Follow Aidan on X and at the American Institute For Economic Research:   https://x.com/aidangrogan?s=21&t=S8JoQpY3m4n6bFrTo8tLrg Aidan Grogan | AIER   Links:   https://gml.bio.link/   YOUTUBE:   https://bit.ly/3UwsRiv   RUMBLE:   https://rumble.com/c/GML   Check out Martens Minute!   https://martensminute.podbean.com/   Follow Josh Martens on X:   https://twitter.com/joshmartens13   Join the private discord & chat during the show!   joingml.com   Bank on Yourself bankonyourself.com/gml   Get FACTOR Today!
