Also, as a side note, we don't spend $1billin a year on assistance to Sudan, It is a little over $100 Million (what we gave in 2014).
Between 2005-2010, the US donated $8 billion to Sudan. The 2010 base clip was $420 mil per year; and then stuff gets added.

And your link-less 2014 figure is BS. Do you have an agenda to be callously throwing out such incorrect numbers?
US to give extra 83m in aid to South Sudan - Al Jazeera English
My source is the US government:
ForeignAssistance.gov
We don't give the Sudan $1 billion every year.
Also worth noting is that South Sudan is a completely different country now.
Those are merely transactional costs and not the amounts of donations (aid), which are well documented.
No they aren't. They are disbursed funds. Read the site.
Dude, I've showed you multiple links showing that the number is way more than what you purport. And I could show you link after link.
This is from your website:
Spent data represents current transactions and may result in negative values in the data. The data shown in the obligated and spent tabs represent an agency’s financial data at a higher level of aggregation with more granular information available on the Transaction tab. Only USAID and USADF are currently reporting transaction data to the Dashboard.
How can aid turn into a negative value? Clearly, this number play; incomplete data and metrics that you clearly don't understand and shouldn't pretend to understand. And you have offered no adequate refutations to the data that is out there. You're just going off of a government website that is incomplete by its own admission as it says only two agencies of presumably many are reporting to it.
