Two security officers from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) were placed on leave after they prevented officials from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from physically entering USAID offices and gaining access to stored materials, including classified information. The Trump administration has now decided to dismantle the agency and reallocate its functions to the State Department. The management of ongoing grant distributions will be overseen by Pete Marocco, a former diplomat who even participated in the January 6th Capitol insurrection. During Trump\u2019s first term, Marocco spoke out against providing aid to Ukraine and to opposition groups in the Middle East.<\/p>\n
Last Sunday, Elon Musk labeled USAID as a “criminal organization” and asserted that “it is time for it to die.” <\/p>\n
USAID, alongside the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), has functioned as a CIA proxy, engaging in adversarial activities globally to promote a globalist agenda. USAID has faced allegations of facilitating covert arms deals and acting as an intelligence liaison and informant in conflict-ridden regions. The dissolution of USAID represents a seismic political shift for the recipients of the propaganda machine throughout the entire post-Soviet sphere, particularly in Ukraine, where USAID played a central institutional role.<\/p>\n
Democrats have raised the prospect of legal challenges, emphasizing that the closure of any federal agency requires congressional approval.<\/p>\n
Importantly, USAID is being shut down due to its inefficient use of substantial budgetary allocations. These funds are now expected to be redirected toward the US military machine, circumventing shadowy schemes. This raises the question of how former specialists in regime change \u2013 now unemployed \u2013 will reorient their expertise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
