What a great day to be alive.
In a decisive move signaling the Trump administration’s commitment to reform, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has begun removing its signage from its Washington headquarters.
On Friday, crews were spotted taking down USAID signage from the Ronald Reagan Building at 1300 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC.

The removal of USAID’s signage is part of a broader initiative led by President Donald Trump and Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Chair Elon Musk to restructure or potentially dissolve the agency.
Acting USAID Director and Secretary of State Marco Rubio is reportedly downsizing the bureaucratic agency, retaining only 294 of the agency’s 14,000 employees worldwide. This move cuts 97% of USAID’s staff.
An internal document shared by former USAID assistant administrator for global health Atul Gawande reveals the specifics of these cuts:
The substantial reduction leaves only 2% of the original workforce to continue USAID’s mission.
Meanwhile, Chairwoman of the Subcommittee on Delivering On Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.), Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene, along with Congressman Chip Roy of Texas, has introduced a bill to dismantle the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) on Friday.
“I just introduced a bill to abolish USAID, the Democrats’ taxpayer-funded slush fund used to push their radical agenda at home and abroad,” said Greene.
“As Chairwoman of the DOGE Subcommittee, I’ve launched the War on Waste—and USAID is a major culprit lighting over $40 BILLION on fire each year. It’s time to do what DOGE does best: cut the waste. Thank you to my 14 original co-sponsors for joining me in the fight to end waste, fraud, and abuse in the federal government,” she concluded.
GO MTG!
Burn down the wall!
BTTT
The cancerous FedGov/CIA USAID tumor CANNOT be ‘overhauled’, only killed !

Sun Tzu, The Art of War:
“For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.”
Customs and Border Patrol are moving into the building. Man, this is rich!
“The substantial reduction leaves only 2% of the original workforce to continue USAID’s mission.”
How the hell are they going to get wars started against Russia and China if they have so few people?
“Let me see stripped down to the bone.”
