“Deep State”

Workers at the U.S. African Development Foundation, a self-described independent agency, refused to let into its building the agency’s new acting director on Wednesday.

So much for the peaceful transition of power.

The agency has 55 employees and an annual budget of $45 million. USADF has been around longer than Fauci and it is just as useless and full of itself.

While Americans celebrate DOGE eliminating wasteful government spending, the benefits from eliminating this waste far exceed the dollar amounts found. As the National Debt Clock ticks off the savings from DOGE, it is important to keep in mind that even bigger losses are being eradicated. To focus only on direct dollar savings is to miss the much bigger picture.

Whatever USAID was or wasn’t meant to be when President John F. Kennedy created the program by executive order in 1961, it effectively is no more.

Wall Street Mav reported on Sunday that the White House intends to “eliminate roughly $60 billion in foreign aid spending and terminate 92% of grants issued by the US Agency for International Development (USAID).”

On his Fox News show “Life, Liberty, and Levin,” Mark Levin had a compelling discussion with Attorney General Pam Bondi about one of the most scandalous yet suspiciously opaque cases in modern history—the Jeffrey Epstein files. Last week, many anticipated bombshell revelations exposing high-profile figures linked to criminal activity on Epstein’s private island. Instead, what we got was a rehash of information already widely known.

So, why is this happening and when are we going to see the new stuff?

The ever-mounting hysteria over Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) seems to largely be coming from that large sector of Americans who work for, or in other ways feed from, Washington’s seemingly bottomless trough. As government employment and spending have cascaded in recent years, this has created not so much a ‘deep state’, as the right-wing paranoids suspect, but a huge and expanding protected class of people who are anxious to defend their livelihoods.

Who will possibly castrate people in India (and around the world) without USAID funds?

One of the co-creators of Wikipedia has publicly asked President Trump and DOGE head Elon Musk to investigate whether federal employees have been paid with taxpayer money to edit entries posted to the online encyclopedia.

An original co-creator of one of the internet’s most used websites, Larry Sanger, took to social media on Wednesday and directly went to DOGE overseer Mr. Musk to look into the matter as he continues to root out government waste at Washington.

The Trump Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) continues to uncover shameless misuse of our taxpayer dollars for insider payoffs and woke activism.

It really is stunning what our elected officials and unelected bureaucrats believe they have the right to spend our money on. Besides the Taliban condoms, European DEI musicals, and Iraqi muppets already exposed by DOGE, the new department led by Elon Musk has found yet more leftist nonsense and grift to cancel.

USAID provided significant funding that benefited the Hamas terrorist organization during the war that began with the October 7 massacres well as other Islamist terrorist organizations, it was claimed during a Congressional hearing yesterday (Wednesday).

The hearing, titled ‘America Last: How Foreign Aid Undermined U.S. Interests Around the World,’ was held by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform’s Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency, and dealt with the recent revelations of waste and corruption at the USAID organization that were made public by DOGE’s investigations.

It’s happening!

AG Bondi just ordered the FBI to deliver the “full and complete Epstein files”, which includes documents, audio, video, etc., to her desk by 8:00 AM tomorrow.

She also confirms that public disclosure will be happening, but that they will make sure to protect… pic.twitter.com/MSuo2630tM
