“As free citizens we believe in direct democracy, the separation of powers, the rule of law, social market economics, subsidiarity, federalism, family values, and German cultural heritage.” So reads the manifesto of the AFD, Alternative für Deutschland, which in global media speak translates to “far-right.”
Or worse. On Sunday, the AFD victory in the federal state election of Saxony-Anhalt spooked the BBC into warning its audience, “The AfD in the state is assessed by domestic intelligence as ‘right-wing extremist’.” Extreme compared to what? This “extremist” party got more than twice as many votes as its nearest rival and might have won a majority were it not for a late surge of mail-in ballots.
Sound familiar? It should. USAID spent billions over the decades in showing European countries how to sustain the kind of “democracy” that has kept the Democratic party viable in America and the EU viable in Europe. Although most of that money has been spent undermining “backsliding” democracies that reject mass immigration—Hungary and Poland most notably—the German political establishment benefitted from USAID’s Europe-wide initiatives and ideological support.
While the American media focused on USAID cuts to the Third World, Europeans worried about cuts to the First World, their world. After USAID’s closure, the influential German foundation Bertelsmann Stiftung (BST) published an assessment titled After USAID: Europe’s Moment to Lead that suggests just how dependent Europe’s globalist establishment had become on USAID.
Warned BST, “The withdrawal of US engagement removes a key pillar of democratic assistance at a moment when authoritarian and illiberal influence is rising.” By “illiberal” BST means any party that opposes what AFD co-chair Alice Weidel calls “authoritarian centralism.”
Given Germany’s history, the media play the Hitler card more subtly than here
The BST assessment gets very specific. “USAID uniquely provided institutional support to local civil society organizations,” what we would call NGOs. “USAID could pivot program funds within weeks, reallocating or modifying activities in response to crises,” crises, one suspects, like the AFD victory in Saxony-Anhalt.
Using a variety of cut-outs USAID could play coy about the money trail. “These intermediaries absorbed reporting burdens,” BST observes, “allowing smaller organizations to focus on substance.”
Perhaps most importantly, reports BST, “The US was often the lead donor on election administration, results management and political-party development—areas in which European donors were comparatively cautious.” Results management? Oh yes, we know something about that. Until President Trump began dismantling USAID, most elected officials had no idea how instrumental USAID was in sustaining the European war on its own citizens.
At her CPAC Hungary address in 2025, Weidel aligned AFD’s mission with that of Trump’s. “Let’s make Europe great again together,” she told the enthusiastic crowd. She also commended Vice-President J.D. Vance for his “magnificent speech” in Munich in 2025.
Vance said on the world stage what the AFD has been attempting to tell German citizens. “For years, we've been told that everything we fund and support is in the name of our shared democratic values,” said Vance. He then cited numerous instances across Europe in which the political establishment cracked down on speech inevitably with some spurious rationale about protecting democracy.
Although Vance did not cite USAID by name, he suggested that for at least the previous four years “the loudest voices for censorship have come not from within Europe but from within my own country.” Google AI unwittingly rats out these missionaries for democracy, boasting, “Yes, USAID actively worked to fight misinformation and disinformation globally through specific programs, media literacy initiatives, and policy guidance.”
In Europe, USAID openly aligned itself with the powerful, and that alignment did the cause of democracy little good. “It looks more and more,” said Vance, “like old, entrenched interests hiding behind ugly, Soviet-era words like ‘misinformation’ and ‘disinformation,’ who simply don't like the idea that somebody with an alternative viewpoint might express a different opinion, or, God forbid, vote a different way, or, even worse, win an election.”
On Sunday, “somebody with an alternative viewpoint” won an election. Vance foretold what could happen next. “A former European commissioner went on television recently and sounded delighted that the Romanian government had just annulled an entire election,” said Vance, adding, “He warned that if things don't go to plan, the very same thing could happen in Germany too.”
As Huey Long reportedly said, “When the United States gets fascism, it will call it anti-fascism.” Germany, it appears, has already caught the bug.
Is it any wonder Islamic countries refer to the US as the great Satan? They all knew this was happening long before we did.
It is becoming clearer everyday that Susan Power and USAID were funding, bankrolling and promoting every anti-Christ evil imaginable, to set the stage for Satan.
Not only using endless NGOs to bring down the USA using its own dollar resources ‘rope’, but also to destroy the EU and UK. Paying for CCP military aged males to flood in through the Darian Gap, supporting an unaccountable number of raping male Islamic hoards and even funding ugly grunting noises ‘Rap music’ to destroy art and beauty in the pure Marxist religion.
All done to bankrupt and upend the West. To then ‘build back better’ in the digital surveillance state image of their new ‘gods’ the Davos WEF elite.
Flooding in evil:
A - USAID “flooding” in Islamic invading hoards into the Western ‘Christian’ nations, more subtle economic invasion warfare.
B - “Al-Aqsa Flood” October 7, 2023 = Rider on the Red Horse bringing visible war.
“So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.” - Isaiah 59:19
“And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood” - Revelation 12:15–16
common knowledge about WWII causes wasn’t that Hitler was a maniac but instead nationalism was the cause. That means any nationalistic tendencies are not only wrong but dangerous.
Hitler wanted a unified Europe, just as the EU wants.
They did ok. It was not a landslide. By any stretch of the human imagination.
A Vision for the Social Sciences
Beardsley Ruml, a visionary young psychologist, engineered LSRM’s transformation after he became director in 1922 at the age of twenty-seven. Ruml and a staff of young Ph.D.s started their tenure at LSRM by surveying the state of social science research and training. A series of reports and memoranda produced between 1922 and 1924 outlined LSRM’s strategy...
...LSRM’s appropriations totaled about $40 million, over half of which supported social science research. Much of that funding was channeled to a handful of institutions: the University of Chicago ($3.4 million); the Brookings Institution ($2.8 million); the Social Science Research Council ($2.7 million); Columbia University ($1.4 million); the London School of Economics ($1.25 million); and Harvard University ($1.2 million)...

They've come a long way, baby, and they're still hammering away.
Never hear “too far left” maybe because those who would complain are dead and those who may of raised their voice got scared off…..
It can’t be repeated often enough, so I will quote you:
“the German National Socialist Worker’s Party (NAZI) were leftist socialists.”
I knew a really bad guy from my hometown who ended up in USAID. He was probably CIA!
At the end of his career, he was working against the Bosnian Serbs! Not good!
I don't think RF called their spending programs 'Initiatives' just to sound rational or businesslike. Or maybe they did; I do believe they liked to model they're dreams and then turn them into taxpayer funded realities while they maintain control. It's a JDR original strategy.
For example, from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockefeller_Foundation
Since its inception, the foundation has donated billions of dollars to various causes, becoming the largest philanthropic enterprise in the world by the 1920s.[7][8][9] The foundation has maintained an international reach since the 1930s and major influence on global non-governmental organizations. The World Health Organization is modeled on the International Health Division of the foundation, which sent doctors abroad to study and treat human subjects. The National Science Foundation and National Institute of Health are also modeled on the work funded by Rockefeller.[10] It has also been a supporter of and influence on the United Nations...
Despite its lack of overt success, the Rural Reconstruction program and the lessons learned from it are largely credited with providing a model for the subsequent community development initiatives of the RF and other international aid organizations, as well as a prototype of Point IV, the US technical assistance program that eventually became the Agency for International Development (USAID).
As I've said before, I do appreciate President Trump's action against USAID. He convinced me when he shut USAID down he truly has our Nation's safety and well being in mind. May God continue to bless and protect him.
Moving in the right direction.
The problem begins with being so smart we deny God (verses 18-23).
The next step is sexual perversion (verse 24-25). If that's not a wake-up call, if we revel in it
The next phase is homosexual perversion (verses 26-27). If that's still not enough to get the point across, if we revel in even that (today it's even called "gay pride")
The last part of cultural decline is all the vile sins imaginable, mostly towards each other (verses 28-32).
We've seen this before, and the solution. Paul was talking about the Roman culture, and the solution was the early church being unashamed of the gospel and living it when no one else would.
We saw it again after the Age of Enlightenment began in the 17th century and promoted atheism and deism. English historians describe the first sexual revolution beginning in 17th century (we saw it here too), along with gay stuff. And interestingly enough, that's when a lot of slavery by Europeans shifted from serfdom to "it's not a person, it's property" style chattel slavery. Again, the solution was for Christians to be unashamed of the gospel and live it like they meant it (first and second great awakenings).
Here we are again. Beginning in the last 19th century we started a mini age of enlightenment, particularly culminating a century ago last year (1925) with the Scopes Trial (monkey trial) and framing Christianity as anti-science. Yep, you guessed it, here came another sexual revolution, followed by a gay sexual revolution and 66 MILLION BABIES ABORTED in the past half a century under the banner "it's not a baby it's just a clump of cells".
The solution, now just like in the past, is another great awakening. Which I believe we're in the early stages of.
