USAID Security Directors Placed on Leave for Refusing DOGE Govt Inspection
Those who do not pretend already know the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is the cover agency for CIA influence operations worldwide. However, technically USAID is supposed to be the charitable side of U.S. government, supporting foreign countries.
If USAID is simply magnanimous and altruistic aid to foreign countries using taxpayer funds, then what exactly is the “classified material” they would need to withhold from DOGE review?
Sometimes all we need are simple questions to destroy the matrix of lies.
WASHINGTON DC – WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they refused to turn over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s government-inspection teams, a current and a former U.S. official told The Associated Press on Sunday...
Dissolving USAID into State, removes the cover. The CIA activities become more obvious. Foreign meddling, specifically messing in elections and installing foreign leaders, becomes more difficult.

Blistering moment Karoline Leavitt rips absurd USAID spending to shreds in front of stunned reporters, Daily Mail, 4 February 2024:
$1.5 million to advance DEI in Serbia's workplaces, $70,000 for a production of a DEI musical in Ireland, $47,000 for a transgender opera in Colombia, $32,000 for a transgender comic book in Peru...
'I don't know about you, but as an American taxpayer I don't want my dollars going toward this crap.
'And I know the American people don't either, and that's exactly what Elon Musk has been tasked by President Trump to do - to get the fraud, waste and abuse out of the federal government.'

... there has been no oversight of USAID. It has been free, for example, to give money to George Soros organizations that do things like back candidates for state prosecutor in the United States. That seems like an odd use of foreign aid, but it really is the tip of the iceberg, which is why Trump is closing it down. That lack of oversight plus decades of existence created an organization that was operating like a government outside the government that financed it.
Of course, much of its activity was aimed at foreign governments. USAID backed the failed color revolution in Georgia last year... The 2005 Orange revolution in Ukraine and the 2014 Maiden coup in 2014 were both underwritten by USAID...
As you would expect, the neocons are dug in like ticks in the network supported by USAID...
There is another aspect of the USAID scandal. One of the organizations it funds is called National Endowment for Democracy, which like USAID is an independent not-for-profit that was created by the National Security Decision Directive 77, signed by Ronald Reagan in 1981. The alleged purpose is to spread democracy, but in reality, it is just another wealthy node in the informal network of formal and informal nodes that make up the shadow government.
Half of the budget of NED is allocated to the American Center for International Labor Solidarity (AFL–CIO), the Center for International Private Enterprise (Chamber of Commerce), the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs (Democratic Party), and the International Republican Institute (Republican Party). If you are curious as to why Joni Ernst tried to block Pete Hegseth’s nomination, check out the board of the International Republican Institute...
