So, according to this must-read thread below: The Peace Institute, a sinister US government agency that was just raided by DOGE and the FBI, was in cahoots with radical activists who have instigated recent campus uprisings.
Anarchist protest toolkits “created and used” by “Beautiful Trouble” and cohorts including Lisa Fithian, “a lifelong advocate for violent protests, abolishing the police, dismantling the state [and who] guided Columbia University students to break into its building” were shared on USIP’s website as models for “change” and “peace.”
Just tried to go to the the Peace Institute website and was blocked.
Has anyone else tried?
It’s surprisingly simple:
Create an NGO with a cool sounding name, then apply for a government grant............
Following years of proposals for a national peace academy, USIP was established in 1984 by congressional legislation signed into law by President Ronald Reagan.
Dead......................
It’s dead, Jim.......................
USIP is not an NGO...................
USIP is not an NGO...................
The United States Institute of Peace (USIP) is an American independent, nonprofit, national institute funded by the U.S. Congress
It appears they THOUGHT they were and acted so.
” independent, nonprofit”
= hardcore leftists—every time.
Does that woman ever wash her hair?
” independent, nonprofit”
= hardcore leftists—every time.
It is supposedly ‘independent’ but as long as money flows to it from the government they will do that government’s bidding...........
To paraphrase Pogo Possum:
WE have seen the enemy and he is US!................

Has DOGE examined ANY government agency that is not waste deep in felony corruption? Who gets to pick?
Ive been waiting on Elon to screw up, but DOGE has been shooting center mass in the 10 ring since Day 1. Elon ready to launch on Day #1! I just love that sh!t. There will be a second “USAID” sized coverup uncovered by DOGE. Off shoots of Child Kidnapping, $ $ counter fitting and plain ‘ol theft for graft/profit.
“Has DOGE examined ANY government agency that is not waste deep in felony corruption?”
Such organizations no longer exist.
Leftists infested all of them—no matter how small or obscure.
They had months of planning: The Crew, the Sequence, the Timing, the Execution............................
Looks like the bass player for AC\DC.
The one lone accomplishment of a perpetually serving WV democrat senator named Jennings Randolph. He championed the idea of such a thing for years. His reasoning if you can call it that was as follows. If you have service academies that study war, why can’t you have a similar institution that studies peace. The leftist delusional anarcho-women and other estrogen-laden psychotics of the time swooned over the idea. In 1984 he got his dream!
Another taxpayer funded monument to Ratland delusion which hopefully can be defunded, knocked down and bulldozed into the Potomac!

I challenge everyone here who thinks another law will solve the problem. And that attitude is too common here.
It is the court of public opinion that Trump is excellent at.
