Re: This is Trump’s America
USAID Waste and Abuse Runs Deep
By David Arnett
Secretary of State Marco Rubio unveiled plans to restructure and potentially abolish the U.S. Agency for International Development on Monday.
In a release late in the day, the White House documented why. For decades the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has been unaccountable to taxpayers while it has funneled massive sums of money to often ridiculous – and in many cases, malicious – pet projects of entrenched bureaucrats with next-to-no oversight.
Here are a few examples of the waste and abuse:
$1.5 million to “advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities”
$70,000 for production of a “DEI musical” in Ireland
$2.5 million for electric vehicles for Vietnam
$47,000 for a “transgender opera” in Colombia
$32,000 for a “transgender comic book” in Peru
$2 million for sex changes and “LGBT activism” in Guatemala
$6 million to fund tourism in Egypt
Hundreds of thousands of dollars for a non-profit linked to designated terrorist organizations — even AFTER an inspector general launched an investigation
Millions to EcoHealth Alliance — which was involved in research at the Wuhan lab
“Hundreds of thousands of meals that went to al Qaeda-affiliated fighters in Syria”
Funding to print “personalized” contraceptives birth control devices in developing countries
Hundreds of millions of dollars to fund “irrigation canals, farming equipment, and even fertilizer used to support the unprecedented poppy cultivation and heroin production in Afghanistan,” benefiting the Taliban

Re: This is Trump’s America
Under half of the money sent to Ukraine has a paper trail.
I always joked that the Biden Crime family got their 10% and Zelinsky got his 10%, but it looks like they each got 30%….
Nah, we don’t need no stinking DOGE…. All the money is spent magnificently….
This shit, and no tariffs on China for the past 30 years is why we have a national debt….

Re: This is Trump’s America
Career fbi agents are being dismissed for working on the January 6 case against the trespassers on the capital. FBI leadership also has been asked to turn over a list of its agents who worked on cases involving the 1,500 Jan. 6 cases — putting at risk some 2,400 agents who worked on the largest prosecutorial undertaking in DOJ history. How petty and stupid can you be! FBI agents take 1 1/2 years of training to be ready. Can you imagine if a mayor was re-elected who was prosecuted by the city government. Then they fire every detective and police officer who worked on their case. This is the same of what Trump is doing.

If we can spend $35 billion dollars a year to fight an ill-considered war in Vietnam. Our nation can spend billions of dollars on Gods' Children to stand on their own two feet!

Re: This is Trump’s America
So just wanted to post this because sone posters questioned whether the offer to leave and not return back to office for federal employees was an actual severance involved and would those choosing to leave and not work actually get paid.
The White House sent out a second email with new information Monday morning, saying the offer will be fully valid for all employees who are scheduled to retire by the end of this year.
"If your retirement date is between Oct. 1, 2025, and Dec. 31, 2025, you are still eligible for deferred resignation," it says. "If your retirement date is within this window, your deferred resignation date will be extended to match your retirement date."
The email also says employees can have formal paperwork filled out by their agency outlining the terms of the agreement, again to reassure them that the offer is valid and will be fulfilled.
Another section explains that in the event of a federal government shutdown, pay for employees could be cut or paused regardless of whether they take the resignation offer, and anyone who resigns will receive back pay once the government is back open.
An FAQ section on the Office of Personnel Management website says employees will not have to work during the deferred resignation period, and they can even accept a new job and be paid for both through the end of September.

Re: This is Trump’s America
Shade.........is that you? You couldn't be anymore wrong. Has he fired some prosecutors? 100%........but hasn't fired any rank and file FBI members. Six senior high ranking FBI members were fired. Hyperbolic much? Other then the six agents not one other agent was fired.......just stop.

Re: This is Trump’s America
I had not read that until I saw this article just now. If this is true it could help explain why the tech market is crap (or so I've heard) right now.

Re: This is Trump’s America
He's right about one thing. They were trespassers, not insurrectionists. At most, they should have been charged with misdemeanor trespassing and property damage. One has to wonder how much of the actual violence, such as it was, was carried out by leftwing plants and undercover FBI agitators. How odd, also, that Pelosi refused military protection when it was offered. The whole thing reeks. That the Jan 6 committee destroyed all its evidence is all you need to know about what this thing was, a preplanned event used to try to sink Trump for good. We saw how that worked out.
