Original Note:
The X post's claim is false & conflates USAID's spending (around 2.3 billion from 2010 to 2020) with the Red Cross's 6 homes. USAID built more than over 900 homes and spent funds on more issues than just construction. The $4.4 billion is total US aid not USAID's alone https://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/world/americas/haiti/article5956041.html https://www.reuters.com/article/world/u-s-program-to-build-houses-in-haiti-falls-short-report-finds-idUSBRE95O1H3/ https://www.propublica.org/article/how-the-red-cross-raised-half-a-billion-dollars-for-haiti-and-built-6-homes
