Big Balls to the rescue: DOGE saves a terabyte of data destroyed by USIP employees
American Thinker ^ | 1 Apr, 2025 | Monica Showalter

I've never heard anything good about the United States Institute for Peace.

It's been in bed with neocons, coupmeisters, and the Soros color revolution crowd for years. The quasi-government agency that runs like a private NGO is always sneaky and non-transparent.

So it didn't surprise me a bit to learn that USIP showed unusual resistence to anyone poking into their spending from DOGE.

Did you hear how the staff as USIP acted when DOGE showed up?

They literally BARRICADED themselves in their offices, cut the phone lines and power to elevators, sabotaged office equipment and the Head of USIP had to be arrested & removed.

SNIP

According to a hostile, biased report from Newsweek:

Elon Musk has accused the U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP) of deleting a terabyte of financial data to "cover their crimes."

Musk reposted a claim from the Conservative page 'amuse' on X (formerly Twitter) which stated that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had found USIP contracts going to Afghanistan's former chief of protocol, who had been a member of the Taliban, and to the Iraqi League for Youth.

Musk wrote on X: "They deleted a terabyte of financial data to cover their crimes, but they don't understand technology, so we recovered it."

Any government institution is most likely to be the opposite of its name

This is going to be good.

The US should pre-emptively confiscate the passports of everybody until they’ve been processed to determine their involvement in the fraud.

I’d prefer to read about thousands of government employees being arrested, tried and incarcerated for fraud,waste and abuse.

Reminds me of a scene from a great German film on WWII...Downfall ("Untergang"). The Russians are only a few miles from Berlin and the Nazis are getting out. You see them tossing boxes and boxes of files out of windows getting ready to set them on fire.

The same type of thing happened in East Germany as it was collapsing. They didn't use fire...they used shredders.

I had no idea that a “U.S. Institute for Peace” existed. That sounds about as 1984-ish as you can get!

A terabyte (TB) is a unit of digital data storage that is equal to approximately 1 trillion bytes.

In terms of other units, 1 terabyte is equivalent to 1,024 gigabytes (GB).

This amount of storage can hold a significant amount of data, such as 200,000 5-minute songs, 310,000 pictures, or 500 hours of movies.

That is a felony. Why aren’t those involved arrested and charged?
