CTH readers are several years ahead of the current news cycle, and I doubt any of the recent revelations about USAID spending and objectives are surprising to most readers here. What we are now seeing are the receipts proving a conversation we have outlined exhaustively on these pages.
There are many ‘revelations’ certain to surface, including how the USAID priorities included the control of information on the internet through their partnerships in the private sector. The larger objective was always information control and manipulating political outcomes both domestically and abroad. That is the impetus for the USAID spending.
The ‘humanitarian’ angle was always a cover, a ruse, tradecraft to hide how taxpayer money was gained and being distributed. That’s why none of their humanitarian endeavors ever solved anything.
Food, clean water, medicine and global aid was the visible claim by the USAID administrators; however, as you see from the surfacing receipts, that was always just a cover for their activity in political influence operations.
Do not think the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee was blind to this operation, they were not. The Senate held oversight, and they knew exactly what was going on, who was doing the orchestration of the agenda, and what the priorities of the USAID operation was all about.
Senator Marco Rubio sat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Secretary of State Marco Rubio advanced with a confirmation vote of 99-0. Secretary Rubio now controls USAID.
To understand the issues as they are now surfacing it is very important to retain clear context.
USAID was a sub-silo, a child of the parent organization, the CIA. The CIA controlled the Big Picture, and USAID was the institution to carry out the objective.
When you see a controversial issue within the USAID operation reaching sunlight, always remember it is the CIA behind it. When USAID targeted a foreign government for removal, it was the CIA behind it. When USAID engaged with domestic and foreign media to control mis-dis-malinformation, it is the CIA behind it. The CIA is defining the information.
When USAID pressured various global news agencies and organized advertiser boycotts against information sources averse to the interests of USAID, it is the CIA behind it. When USAID funds the Clinton Foundation, or McCain Institute, or any of the cause celebre’ NGOs you now see in the headlines, it is factually the CIA behind them. When USAID funds media for influence control, it is the CIA behind it.
This is also the context for the envelopes at the George H.W. Bush funeral. An argument can be made that GHW Bush as CIA Director was the originator and architect of the CIA/USAID business model we are now discussing. Bush knew the politicians would have to benefit from the business, in order to advance the operation.
When Chuck Schumer says, “the Intelligence Community has “six ways from Sunday to get you,” he is referencing this matrix of Intelligence Community control, that also includes the use of USAID to fund the systems that target the opposition as defined by the CIA.
Yes, in many ways real and yet to be revealed, all roads lead to Langley.
When you see media outlets, or NGOs on the left and right side of the information system being given funds (directly or indirectly) though the USAID funding silo, keep in mind this it is essentially the CIA behind it.
The Central Intelligence Agency is the only silo within Washington DC, specifically empowered to operate in complete darkness. There is zero CIA oversight, and the mission mandate as authorized by congress permits the CIA to remain entirely closed from any oversight or scrutiny. The CIA is also authorized to lie about anything as part of their “national security” mission.
It is through that larger IC prism that all information about USAID operations should be evaluated.
This is also the context to remember and perhaps reevaluate the attack on the ‘secret’ U.S. embassy consulate in Benghazi Libya (9/11/12). This is the context that explains why it took the FBI 19 days to arrive in Benghazi and why the U.S. government allowed the CIA operatives in the Annex a few miles away to remain under attack without aid. If an event threatens to reveal the IC, CIA, State Dept activity, they throw a bag over it – sacrificing anyone in/around the event.
Many years ago, when we began our discussion on this matrix of domestic manipulations and political outcomes, we presented an image.
This was not an accidental meme.
Evaluate it closely.
“The Central Intelligence Agency is the only silo within Washington DC, specifically empowered to operate in complete darkness.”
Unfortunately this is not correct.
There are more than twenty different agencies in the “Intelligence Community” who have blackmailed Congress into looking the other way no matter what they do.
Matthew Pines calls them “an archipelago”.
Snowden exposed NSA—as just one example.
NSA remains totally out of control—protected by a wall of deception and propaganda.
The Swamp is very wide and deep—deeper than mere humans can even imagine.
It’s demonically fueled, too.
And it’s worse thana cancer, with it’s diabolical tentacles infiltrating almost everything.
Senator Marco Rubio sat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Secretary of State Marco Rubio advanced with a confirmation vote of 99-0. Secretary Rubio now controls USAID.
This part is disturbing. Hopefully, Trump has total control of Rubio.
Who decided that it was the American people’s job to feed those hungry bass turds in foreign countries anyway? We’ve got AMERICAN kids here that are going hungry. The commercials are all over TV.
Humanitarian Aid ?
Go to the UN or that...they have alll the money and resources
On THAT note, get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US.
Yup!
Yes. It’s the antichrist rising.
As bad as what we’ve seen is and has been the last four years, it’s going to be a walk in the park compared to the Tribulation period.
No doubt!
