Wait, USAID Paid for a Radical Islamic Terrorist's College Tuition?

You cannot make this stuff up? USAID, which blessedly is no more, paid for a radical Islamic terrorist’s college tuition. Past receipts show that the former agency footed the bill for Anwar Awlaki’s higher education. Awlaki lied about the country of his birth to obtain funds for college through the State Department. Awlaki later became the point of the lance for al-Qaeda’s digital jihad arm. Investigative Catherine Herridge has more:

Looks like USAID supported college tuition for Anwar Aulaqi (Awlaki) who later became a high level al Qaeda terrorist. Aulaqi falsely claimed he was born in Yemen to secure the financial help via the State Dept. when he was actually a US citizen, born in Las Cruces New Mexico.

Aulaqi would later develop close ties with several 9/11 hijackers and attain leadership status in AQ's Yemen affiliate. Aulaqi was the godfather of the digital jihad that leveraged his writings and the web to radicalize Americans to AQ's cause. Aulaqi became the first American targeted for death by the CIA.

In 2011, he was killed in a US drone strike.

And yet, some media figures claim they cannot find any waste or abuse at USAID.

Yeah, again, the legacy media is a joke.

Yes, muzzy terrorists are much more effective blowing stuff up if Uncle Sam pays for their degrees in Chemical Engineering.

The Leftists have to be VERY CAREFUL as to what they’re defending as they don’t know what other ‘tidbits’ Trumps people have already discovered.

We will eventually learn that we funded Castro, Mao, Ho Chi Men, Pol Pot, Yassir Arafart, Sinwar (from Gaza) and a whole host of scum that fought against American interests. Who knows, we might find out that Obama and Kerry were funded by USAID in order to “fundamentally change” America.

This is all pathetic.

They did . They did all that and more. They probably bought the guns and ammo they used to murder people with. Along with the knives they used to cut people’s heads off and stab them.

Every member of the entire organization needs to be in prison as an accessory to murder. But they won’t be because they are a member of The Ruling Class.

Hmmmm...

Is it fair to ax who else's expenses at say, Harvard might have been covered by Uncle Sugar, and presumably an easy road paved in advance for same?

Hmmmm...

Gee, what if something like that were to come to light for say...

Well never mind. But that's what I'm thinking.

The only reason to watch the Super Bowl today is to see Musk’s ads revealing just some of the rank corruption we paid for.

Not just a question of waste and mismanagement.

The audit is uncovering a terrorist conspiracy by the Democrats.

No wonder the Democrats are running scared and issuing threats against the auditors' families.
Like the terrorists they are.

It’s all been a broad scale effort to inject communism into every aspect of American society and government, with the eventual goal of destabilizing everything enough for a NWO takeover.

He may be a terrorist, but he is the deep state’s terrorist.
