The FBI, under Trump's instruction, confiscated 5 million N95 masks from US hospitals. 1 million of those went to the IDF, free of charge.

Do you have a source for that? I remember the confiscations going on, and state governors being forced to hide PPE from the feds, but I didn't hear anything about sending it overseas.

That's pretty fucked if true.

Doesn't seem like a great source, but that's definitely fishy. I'm surprised there hasn't been more investigation into this.

The U.S. already gives them billions every year that could go toward national infrastructure, education, and other important things instead.
