The group, Judicial Watch, obtained 32 pages of records from the Justice Department this week through a May 2017 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID.)

The new documents show USAID funds were sent through the agency’s Civil Society Project to back Soros’ left-wing "East West Management Institute" through USAID's "Justice for All" campaign. USAID provided $8.8 million in 2016 to that campaign.

The Justice for All Project was designed to strengthen the effectiveness and transparency of the courts in Albania. The project aimed to increase citizens’ trust in the judiciary and a more efficient judicial system, according to USAID.

If true, this is definitely criminal, and Obama and anyone involved from the State Department should be tried, convicted and imprisoned.

Click on that link in #4 and apply for that grant to be an investigative reporter in Albania. If they give you the $5000.00 Grant, you can go there and investigate them

If Albanians ethincally cleanse the remaining Sebs in Kosovo, will Trump bomb the Christian Serbs like Clinton did?

What if Russia stands behind the Serbs this time?

We can safely assume that they were lied to about every substantial aspect of it.

Tom Fitton is the man. Best thing about him is, he isn’t even a lawyer and he’s probably more knowledgeable about the law than the very, large majority of “legal experts” they have on tv, every night.

Unless it’s disease research to find a cure or military research to destroy our enemies or save a life, no money should be going to anyone, anything, or anywhere.

I’ve dealt with them, firsthand, in Iraq. Driving them around Baghdad, listening to them brag about giving away taxpayer dollars for the BS, liberal dreams to make Iraq a better place.

But, I find it hard to believe that it’s a front for intel collection. I know not every spy is James Bond or Jason Bourne, but what I saw from them, I’m not so sure. That is, unless they’re taught in spy school how to present themselves as the most radical, liberal, socialist, progressive, homosexual, hipster, drunk, pill popping, degenerate, who makes no secret about their loathing of the United States, hiding behind the veil of USAID and the US Dept of State. Which, seemed to me, to be nothing more than a place where former State Dept employees, future State Dept employees, and their Contractor friends, could live off the taxpayer dime, spend their days and nights getting drunk, working deals for their friends and getting some nice kickbacks, and pretty much doing nothing worthwhile.
