Talked to a friend who has connections within the Democratic Party and he said the level of panic over Trump and Elon shutting down USAID is unlike anything he’s ever seen.
By following the money DOGE has struck a killing blow to the heart of the Democrat deep state machine.
Direct quote: “This is worse than 9/11 for Democrats. USAID is the primary vessel they use to achieve their political agenda. USAID is and always has been the primary source of funding for their influence peddling schemes and for their indirect sources of income”
Another text “Based on the reactions from within the party it seems to me that dismantling USAID is Trump’s biggest political victory to date, it was his enemy’s golden goose”
Same source who told me during the campaign (well before it was made public) that Kamala’s internal polling had her behind Trump so his information is good.
Another important addition. He said initial plans by the Democrats is to have their people at USAID hide the partisan funding under “unimpeachable initiatives”. “They will push back really hard on certain line items that on their face look like reasonable USAID expenditures and Show more
More: “Another likely solution for Democrats which they already use to reward VIPs is to use NGOs as an intermediary to direct funds where they want them to go”
So basically USAID allocates funds for a certain initiative that looks reasonable. Democrat friendly NGO is contracted
“If Trump/Elon want this to stick they need to completely shut down USAID or fire the entire staff, the party has instructed their allies to not make waves and blend in. USAID is 99% Democrats they will not be able to save it without risking internal sabotage.”

Re “… the party has instructed their allies to not make waves and blend in…”
Hard to blend in when you don’t work there anymore.
It needs to be completely shut down.
Have I got this right?
1.USAID gave big money to NGOs.
2.The NGOs placed sitting politicians on their boards
3. The politicians had oversite of those NGOs
4. The politicians were paid huge sums like Hunter Biden
5. Other D.C. critters also got in on this scam.
they have a scif
Yeah, I wondered about that... what do they need with a SCIF?
And the director was very adamant about keeping DOGE out of it until they walked him out of the place.
It sounds like they found one of the septic tanks of the dumblecrats.
Salt the earth so nothing ever grows there again.
[Chucky’s panic]
We definitely know things are good when Chucky is freaking out
[Elon Musk nor Trump have the authority to decide to defund USAID. Period. No debate.]
It’s hilarious how Democrats lie to themselves and others.
They must love Rachel Madcow. She/He tells them lies all of the time.
yep
probably just a coincidence
300 babies? So now dims care about babies?
Much like 500 million of tax payers dollars going to NPR, so it can then be sent to dim politicians and supporters. What a perfect racket. Go Dogs er ah DOGE😂😎🇺🇸
Reminds me of “charities” here that list 92% administrative fee or anything that claims to be “non-profit”
I used to give to certain charities till I learned what the “administrators “ made.
I give locally and directly now
Imagine that money is gone, like the over billion camel toe spent to run a “flawless campaign “
Very likely the greatest money laundering scheme ever, I am sure Bernie amd fauxahontis will be all over this 😎
You want to Make America Great Again?
Destroy Welfare as we know it.
That will free (primarily black) Americans from the permanent yoke of bondage to the Government and Democrats!
It was created by an EO and Congress funds it...
As an official component of U.S. foreign policy, USAID operates subject to the guidance of the president, secretary of state, and the National Security Council so Trump and Rubio can do what they want.
Will be interesting to see coming midterms how dim finding is effected.
NPR and PP funding should be easy cuts
I want clawbacks from the NGOs and foundations.
You noticed that.
Me to.
There are a few posters who are making themselves look foolish.
They do this on every issue, none more so than “climate change.” Any solid argument to the contrary from a conservative organization (a real organization) is met with immediate rebuttal from several important-sounding “organizations” no one has ever heard of before. It’s a straight-up fraud, but that’s what leftists specialize in.
