Since Trump administration started its work, Department of Government Efficiency has discovered huge amounts of money wasted by the government. In 2022, USAID paid Time Magazine for million dollars for them to award Ukrainian President Zelenskyy the title of the person of the year. In 2024, Politico newspaper received over $8,000,000 from USAID. According to Wikileaks, USAID was funding over 6,200 journalists across seven zero seven media outlets and two seventy nine media NGOs. Trump claimed that billions of dollars were spent by the USAID and other government agencies on supporting Democrats and their agenda. Trump administration believes that such waste of money is detrimental to The US and that USAID needs to be reformed or shut down entirely.

Four people are pleading guilty in a half-billion-dollar bribery scandal involving USAID. According to the Justice Department, USAID official Roderick Watson sold his influence starting in 2013. Contractors Walter Barnes and Daryl Britt funneled payoffs through subcontractor Paul Young. Barnes' company kept receiving federal funds, including $5,000 for human resources consulting and a contract worth up to $800,000,000 after suing the government. The Justice Department's Matthew r Gagliotti stated that the scheme violated the public trust by corrupting the federal government's procurement process. Some suggest USAID funneled taxpayer dollars into ideological projects and that the agency needs to be redone. The Justice Department says this kind of fraud erodes public trust.

I've been investigating USAID spending through usaspending.gov and found that Chemonics International Inc. is the largest recipient of these funds, receiving $6 billion recently. They primarily transport pharmaceutical products, especially AIDS drugs, to developing nations. Chemonics earned $1.8 billion in the last year and has a troubling track record, with only 7% of health shipments arriving on time in 2017. Despite scandals, including issues in Haiti and Afghanistan, they continue to secure lucrative contracts. Their operations raise questions about effectiveness and accountability in USAID funding. If anyone has more information on Chemonics, please share.

As senior advisor at the United States Agency for Global Media, the speaker is working on behalf of the American people and President Trump's administration. The speaker claims to be horrified by what they are learning about the agency. The Biden administration allegedly signed a 15-year lease for a new building costing taxpayers nearly a quarter of a billion dollars, despite already having a paid-off building that could have been renovated. The new building has fancy conference rooms, bridges to nowhere, waterfalls, Italian marble, and leather furnishings. The speaker also alleges that contracts were changed just before the new administration arrived to make it less transparent to track where money is going. The speaker says they are working to cancel contracts, save money, downsize, and prevent misuse of taxpayer dollars.

USAID has allocated significant funds for various projects, including $1.5 million for DEI initiatives in Serbia, $70,000 for a DEI musical in Ireland, $47,000 for a transgender opera in Colombia, and $32,000 for a transgender comic book in Peru. Many American taxpayers are concerned about these expenditures, believing they do not reflect their priorities. President Trump has tasked Elon Musk with addressing issues of fraud, waste, and abuse within the federal government.

Speaker 0 describes a scandal during the Obama-era USAID operations in Cuba, stating that rogue activities were run and that the aim is to reveal to the American people where tax dollars are going and how programs are structured to fool Congress and the White House. Key points: - Zunzanillo was an online social networking microblogging service created by USAID and marketed to Cuban users. It was a Twitter-like platform with the same user interface and like/retweet features, referred to in Cuban slang as the “bird.” The operation spanned roughly 2009–2014. - USAID invested about $1,200,000,000 in promoting Arab Spring–style social media revolutions, funding activist groups and civil society organizations to learn to use Facebook, Twitter, hashtags, and to coordinate street protests to topple governments. - Because Cuba did not allow US social media, the operation recreated a Cuban-looking Twitter-like service. The project began in 2010, using funds concealed as humanitarian aid for Pakistan, even though Cuba is not near Pakistan. The main contractor was Creative Associates International (CAI), with CAI designing the network. - The funds were concealed in the budget as humanitarian aid for Pakistan, routed through front companies using Cayman Islands bank accounts, and recruiting business executives who were not told of ties to the US government, according to the AP. - The network reached about 60,000 Cuban subscribers. The initiative reportedly included a surveillance dimension, building a vast database of Cuban subscribers (gender, age, political tendencies) that could be used for political purposes. The data were to be used for micro-targeting anti- and pro-government users. - Initial content would be noncontroversial, focusing on sports, music, and hurricane updates. The internal plan was to lure users in with these topics, then, once a critical mass was reached, gradually introduce political messages via social bots to encourage dissent and organize “smart mobs” or rental riots. - The strategy mirrored tactics used in Egypt and Tunisia, aiming to trigger a Cuban spring and “renegotiate the balance of power between state and society.” The Guardian has a detailed piece on this, describing the internal files that outlined luring Cubans with music, sports, and hurricane updates before pushing political content. - To conceal involvement, the operation reportedly used Cayman Islands front companies and designated funds as humanitarian aid, raising questions about US fingerprints. The discussion suggests this approach raises diplomatic blowback concerns and implies a preference for formal intelligence agencies in such operations. The speaker emphasizes that the material shows how the programs were structured to influence Cuba, how funds were misrepresented, and how data collection and targeted messaging were planned for political outcomes, reminding listeners of the broader implications for US statecraft.

A judge who halted President Trump's spending freeze received over $100 million in government funding to his NGO, with money going to private jets and huge salaries. This is blatant corruption, as he failed to disclose this information, potentially facing decades in prison. House Republicans have announced impeachment articles against Democrat judges for obstructing Trump's duties and criminal conflicts. Judge McConnell received $128 million for his NGO, the Crossroads Rhode Island Foundation, allegedly for social programs, but almost none of the money went to that. The judge bought his position to protect these NGOs and funnel money. Senators Cotton and Graham are under fire for allegedly misusing funds from the Republican International Institute, an NGO that received hundreds of millions.

There's significant fraud in USAID, with radical groups receiving funds they don't deserve. A staggering amount, like a hundred million, is being misallocated. It's crucial to investigate the kickbacks associated with this spending. Who would invest such sums in questionable projects? It's likely that those who received the funds are not returning any to the government, indicating a high level of corruption. The key issue is understanding the extent of these kickbacks.

My team faced significant obstruction from USAID while trying to access records on taxpayer money. Partnering with Representative Mike McCall, we initiated a congressional investigation, but USAID only provided limited data. Our findings revealed excessive spending with minimal results. Notably, USAID funded the Wuhan Institute of Virology for dangerous coronaviruses, and also allocated money for pottery classes in Morocco and tourism in Lebanon, despite travel warnings from the State Department. There are numerous examples of questionable expenditures.

USAID is far worse than people realize. Remember the outrage over Elon Musk buying Twitter? We should have that same energy about the $200 billion supposedly sent to Ukraine—Zelensky says only half arrived. That's $100 billion unaccounted for! Meanwhile, crucial needs like fixing Flint's water crisis ($1.5 billion) are ignored, while Ethiopia receives more annually. The system is corrupt; politicians benefit through USAID, creating a loop of self-enrichment. The media, also funded by USAID, manipulates public opinion, making us think we're wrong to question it. This isn't normal; our outrage is manufactured. We need to investigate this waste and corruption. If you're a business owner struggling to reach your potential, let's fix your processes and boost your profits.

The speaker was asked if there is evidence that Maxine Waters, Adam Schiff, and Chuck Schumer have received money directly from USAID. The speaker responded that taxpayer money is sent to government organizations, then to NGOs, which are government-funded but not governed by U.S. laws. Money is sent overseas to NGOs and the speaker is confident that some of it returns to the U.S. and ends up with the aforementioned politicians. The speaker states that it's not a direct route, but that some members of Congress are strangely wealthy, accumulating millions while earning significantly less annually, which is unexplainable. The speaker says they are going to try to figure it out and stop it from happening.

The Third Precinct has been compromised. USAID used taxpayer money for BLM ($27 million), Soros (at least $260 million), and the WEF ($68 million). Taxpayers allegedly paid for these entities to burn down cities, destroy America, launder money to Democrats, and subsidize the WEF. USAID also funded Middle East Sesame Street ($20 million) and Ukraine ($1 billion). It is claimed that the prosecutor got fired because the money was not received. These actions are described as despicable, appalling, dangerous, and Democrat propaganda via fake news. It is considered an extremely dangerous use of taxpayer funds and a threat to democracy. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

USAID is how the CIA gets things done, attempting regime change with secret accounts and shell companies. They receive $50 billion annually, even funding Al-Shabaab groups and commanding the Taliban to keep opium flowing. USAID, the State Department, and the CIA rigged the Guatemalan election to install CIA-controlled politicians and run a child trafficking network. DHS and HHS created public-private partnerships with Mexican cartels and NGOs like Save the Children to fund international child trafficking. There's a crisis of human smuggling and trafficking where the federal government cannot be turned to for help. We are failing in our American heritage, we have hope in President Trump.

Taxpayer money is sent to government organizations, then to NGOs. If it's a government-funded NGO, it's effectively just the government. A fraud loophole exists because the government can send money to an NGO that is no longer governed by U.S. laws. The money is sent overseas to one NGO, then through others. The speaker is highly confident that some of that money returns to the U.S. and enriches certain people. There are strangely wealthy members of Congress, and it's unclear how they accumulated millions while earning comparatively little. The speaker aims to investigate this and prevent it from continuing.

USAID is a fraud and a slush fund for left-wing projects globally, with very little being put to good use. This occurs while denying funds to those who clearly need them, with only cents on the dollar reaching those in need. USAID was initially created for humanitarian purposes, but it has been captured by the military-industrial complex, becoming a sinister propagator of totalitarianism and war. The US government, through USAID, has funded things like DEI initiatives in Serbia, gender surgeries worldwide, sex change surgeries in Guatemala, and social media influencers in Ukraine. USAID is using taxpayer dollars to fund opposition and subvert democracy in other countries. USAID and the CIA don't promote democracy; they are run by radical lunatics that we are working to remove. As an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars going towards this.

Speaker 1 claims that most past presidents for the last 20 years have been aware of corruption within USAID but chose not to act, alleging that many were complicit. Joe Biden, as head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, oversaw USAID, which allegedly funded Burisma. Barack Obama's mother worked for USAID, and the Bush family also has connections. Speaker 1 suggests the Trump revolution challenged this system, which is why there was such a strong reaction against him. Speaker 1 further alleges that USAID funded the OCCRP, providing $20 million to journalists who then found damaging information on Rudy Giuliani. This information was purportedly used as the basis for the impeachment of President Donald Trump in 2019.

Elon highlighted significant issues of fraud, waste, and abuse in the budget, estimating that around 10% could be fraudulent, amounting to approximately $600 billion to $1 trillion in waste. Initially, there was hope for a democracy, but now there's concern that it may devolve into a kleptocracy, reminiscent of Latin American regimes. The data from USAID reveals troubling political contributions that suggest corruption. This situation is alarming, and it's crucial to prevent further decline. Fortunately, there are over 80 dedicated individuals working tirelessly to address these issues, and their efforts are commendable.

I'm calling for an investigation to uncover who in the government has been receiving kickbacks from USAID. Doge's congressional audits reveal that three Democrat senators have each inexplicably gained over $20,000,000 in net worth. When questioned, they claimed the wealth simply appeared. These files have now been handed over to Pam Bondi at the Justice Department. If they're found guilty of using taxpayer money to enrich themselves, what consequences do you think they should face? Share your thoughts in the comments on what actions should be taken against those who steal from American citizens.

Donald Trump has involved Elon Musk in an initiative to eliminate wasteful spending within government agencies like USAID. There is resistance within these agencies to outside influence, reflecting a belief that they operate independently of elected officials. USAID's projects often serve dual purposes, advancing U.S. foreign policy while presenting a humanitarian facade. Historical scandals, including the CIA's misuse of public health initiatives for intelligence, raise concerns about USAID's operations. The potential for classified information at USAID to jeopardize national security is alarming, especially given its ties to the CIA. If foreign nations discover the extent of USAID's actions, it could damage U.S. diplomatic relations and trust, pushing countries toward adversaries like Russia and China, ultimately harming U.S. economic interests and global standing.

The speaker was asked if there is evidence that Maxine Waters, Adam Schiff, and Chuck Schumer have received money directly from USAID. The speaker responded that taxpayer money is sent to government organizations, then to NGOs, which are government-funded but not governed by U.S. laws. Money is sent overseas to NGOs and the speaker is confident that some of it returns to the U.S. and ends up with the aforementioned politicians. The speaker states that it's not a direct route, but that some members of Congress are strangely wealthy, accumulating millions while earning salaries of only around $200,000 per year. The speaker says they are going to try to figure it out and stop it from happening.

USAID has been accused of acting as a covert operations division for U.S. foreign policy, often engaging in activities that resemble those previously conducted by the CIA. This includes funding opposition groups in countries like Bangladesh, where they supported specific demographics to destabilize governments. Both Democrats and internationalist Republicans benefit from USAID, complicating efforts to shut it down. Past presidents, including Biden and Obama, have been implicated in this corruption, with connections to organizations funded by USAID. The Trump administration's foreign policy challenged this system, leading to significant pushback, including legal actions against Trump. USAID's influence extends across various sectors, including media and academia, raising concerns about accountability and transparency in U.S. foreign aid.

USAID is seen as a tool for regime change, funded with $50 billion annually, potentially surpassing the CIA's budget. It operates under the guise of humanitarian aid while allegedly engaging in activities like meddling in elections and supporting oppressive regimes. The Biden administration is accused of covering up voter fraud in Guatemala to install CIA-friendly politicians, facilitating child trafficking networks. There are claims that DHS and HHS are involved in partnerships with cartels and NGOs, using taxpayer money to fund trafficking operations. Secretary Mayorkas faces criticism for policies leading to the smuggling of children, while investigations into trafficking continue.

This administration's talk about fighting waste, fraud, and abuse is a smokescreen. Their actions reveal a focus on promoting corruption. One of the first things they did was remove 17 inspector generals from federal departments and agencies. These are the people who fight corruption, with staffs dedicated to uncovering waste, self-dealing, bribery, and abuse. Last year alone, they saved us $93 billion. Meanwhile, people are being fired from important civil service positions, and this is not about eliminating waste, fraud, or abuse. It's a continuation of wiping out the anti-corruption infrastructure of the government.

I'm uncovering fraud by showing how money isn't reaching its intended destination but is instead being diverted, which goes against what Congress intended. Uncovering fraud should be viewed positively, and it's puzzling why anyone would defend it. We're working to address waste, inefficiency, fraud, and the weaponization of agencies. A prime example is USAID, which misuses taxpayer money to promote unwanted ideologies and destabilize foreign policies. It is common sense to stop funding these things. We aim to address this issue across all agencies, ensuring taxpayer dollars are used responsibly and effectively.

The speaker reported a subordinate for criminal conflict of interest but was discouraged from doing so, learning that reporting corruption leads to trouble. Subsequently, the speaker was accused of publishing classified information from two years prior and fired, while those engaged in corruption kept their jobs. This created a culture where criticizing corruption leads to retaliation using tools meant for criminals. The speaker has been in court for three years trying to get the facts released, similar to cases with Senator Ernst, where information is withheld from courts and Congress. Regarding uncovering fraud inside USAID, the speaker believes forensic accountants are needed due to bureaucrats' crafty methods of hiding money. Even in 2019, programs unknown to political appointees were still being discovered. The speaker suggests that during the Trump term, some appointees were not vigilant enough, but now there is a stronger, more concerted effort to obtain all the information.
