It was ALL a lie. The real reason USAID was in Africa Former African Union Ambassador to the United States, Arikana Chihombori-Quao: “They're using that open access, sounding humanitarian, to constantly destabilize governments”

“We need to understand the real reason why USAID is in Africa, and not just USAID, but other NGOs They are coming in claiming that they're introducing grassroots initiatives that are going to help the people, and so they use that as a way to go into the most remote parts of Africa. When you look at it on paper, it all looks really good, but they're actually wolf in sheep's clothing.”

“The American taxpayer needs to know the billions of dollars that are being given to USAID. A fraction is making it to the people”

“They're using that open access sounding humanitarian to constantly destabilize governments. I can tell you right now, the majority of African leaders, and not just African leaders, but leaders in the developing world are celebrating the exit of USAID.

If you think about it, their sole purpose, for example, filling in the gaps in healthcare and education, where is the change? Show me one country that USAID was in and education improved. Show me what country where USAID was in and healthcare improved?”

They laundered our money.

I have yet to see a leader of country that USAID was “helping” lament the loss of that “help”. I would assume most of those countries are remaining silent and not speaking as this diplomat is out fear that USAID “help” might someday return.

Who would want to destabilize governments in Africa? I don’t know, China maybe?

The more I learn about USAID the more I want to puke. Absolutely disgusting what they did with our money. You can bet that all of the crybabies had their hands in it. Just ask Judge Boasberg’s wife and daughter.

USAID was just one big honeypot for leftists. Funded by Congress.

USAID gives money to the most corrupt politicians in Crapholeistan countries to coerce and manipulate those countries. How else do you explain millions to “Transgender Ballroom Dancing” in Peru, etc. Patriots in those countries wouldn’t accept the money 💰

I was thinking no one would complain because they were themselves ranked in the grift that stretched the whole distance of the grift, beginning from the US all the way to the alleged ‘recipients’.

The actual intended recipients likely never saw much of the largess

The most that anybody can do for Africa is teach them the principles of good governance. Then let them govern themselves.

You really that blind to what has been going on?? You really fall for shtick put about by the grifters. Trillions of grift and you are asking why? How about the purpose of the grift was the grift and if you had to look for a deeper cause it was globalist imperialists who were mostly in it for the grift.

The wife of a congressman neighbor in DC was on the AIDs grift. She was part of an NGO that spent a lot of time travling to Cape Town on AIDS “fact-finding” missions. Mostly stayed in 6* hotels in Cape Town - and if you don’t know, the South African luxury hospitality industry including boutique hotels and luxury spas and high end restaurants and really out of sight quality wines are world leading.

Great if USAID went in and got rid of of a few pro-Putin or pro-CCP dictators, whose nations have large rare earth deposits or lithium mines. We want our USA friendly dictator installed. Not Xi or Putin’s monster

“teach them the principles of good governance”

Well—we better keep US teachers far away.

Most are hard core leftists who want to make the world safe for perverts.

Most Africans have been taught that lesson by now.

African excuse for the inability of Africans to cope with the realities of the modern world.

Tribal values clog up the urban system rendering it ineffectice

Glad this is all out on the table and the average American can see it all, but what we need to do now is get the fat a##es in congress to make this law before the midterms

We should equally address that besides a money laundering vehicle, USAID was a trojan horse for CIA/covert-StateDept operations to destabilize, infiltrate and alter all it impacted.
