U2’s Bono Gives Sad Farewell Speech to USAID, with Obama and Bush

Poor Bono.

The 65 year old front man for the band U2 seems to be heartbroken over the fact that the liberal’s main money laundering group USAID has been shut down.

But he’s not alone.

Former presidents Barack Obama and George Bush joined Bono to make a video for staffers of the “U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).

He even wrote a touching poem for them.

The AP said it was:

a closed-press event to allow political leaders and others privacy for sometimes angry and often teary remarks. Parts of the video were shared with The Associated Press.

The Hill reports:

Former Presidents Obama and George W. Bush, along with U2’s Bono, are reportedly sending off U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) staffers with a poignant video tribute.

The ex-commanders in chief and the “With or Without You” singer appeared via teleconference Monday to speak with employees on USAID’s final day as an independent agency, The Associated Press reported.

In March, the Trump administration moved to formally end USAID, terminating employees and merging all remaining functions into the State Department beginning Tuesday. President Trump has accused USAID — which was created in 1961 by former President Kennedy and codified by Congress in 1998 — of being “incompetent” and “really corrupt.”

In a recorded statement, Obama referred to the evisceration of the international agency by the Trump administration as a “colossal mistake” and told staffers, “Your work has mattered and will matter for generations to come.”

“Gutting USAID is a travesty, and it’s a tragedy,” Obama said, according to the AP.

Did Bono forget all the things that Joe Rogan told him before his emotional meeting?

Translation of post showing Bono and Joe Rogan:

Bono bitterly complains that the Trump administration took a chainsaw to USAID (a state agency that funded all sorts of progressive ventures and schemes around the world), and Joe Rogan responds:

Bono se queja agriamente, de que el gobierno de Trump haya pasado la motosierra por la USAID (organismo estatal que financiaba toda clase de kioscos y chiringuitos progres en medio mundo) y Joe Rogan le contesta: pic.twitter.com/eJ2I15IK4o

Did Bono think that Joe Rogan wouldn’t point out the facts about USAID?

Sadly, video of Bono reading that poem isn’t available.

But as an extra bonus for you, here is Nancy Pelosi reading a Bono poem as we hear in the background our overlords stuffing their faces:
