This More or Less podcast fact-checks a claim by the White House Press Secretary that $50 million in US taxpayer money was used to fund condoms in Gaza, which were then used to make bombs. The podcast investigates the claim, revealing the funds were actually allocated to the International Medical Corps for field hospitals in Gaza, not condoms. Experts debunk the claim, highlighting the logistical impossibility of the original statement and pointing out that the majority of US condom funding goes to African countries for HIV/AIDS prevention. The podcast concludes by discussing the removal of relevant USAID data from their website and the ongoing legal challenges to the administration's actions. The claim about Hamas using condoms for bombs, however, remains unsubstantiated.
