Came across this one digging for something else this am. (From 2021) "State department sees 'nostalgia for Soviet times in parts of the population fed by Russian disinformation.'"


The whole thread is fairly comical. If I had access to the laughing emoji still I'd have used that one for this.

Yep.

USAID was funding BOTH the WUHAN Lab gain-of-function research & SMARTMATIC Election Systems.

Do you think it was a coincidence that "covid" came out right around the 2020 election?

Coincidentally, the same left-wing billionaires, NGOs, and USAID also funded the 'NO KINGS' protest, aka, the color revolutions across America.

This means that USAID was simultaneously funding BOTH the election-rigging technology that would steal the 2020 election WHILE manufacturing and releasing a WEAPONIZED VIRUS that would distract the world from the theft of said election while depopulating the planet at the same time. It's all connected.

Everything is out in the open and face-up on the table... I don't even know what to say anymore. You can't be this naive anymore. We can't live under this fraud and tyranny anymore.

Americans are suffering, and everyone else is robbing you blind getting filthy rich.

Fact check, all true. From the replies:

USAID-alumnus Morgan Ortegus I think has been fired but just another Pompeo-special still schlepping around DC/NY who should have no role working for the American people.

Brussels is panickingand for once, the reason has nothing to do with Russian tanks or climate deadlines. The real crisis is informational. It is an open secret how Europe's so-called "civil society" has long depended on American money, much of it routed through USAID-linked programs, foundations, and transatlantic NGO networks. That money built careers, offices, media platforms, and a permanent activist bureaucracy whose main function was to police politics and impose Berkeley-style liberalism across the continent. It all changed after President Trump and Secretary Rubio all but abolished USAID, closing down an estimated 83 per cent of its projectsmany of them ideological, and indeed subversive, in nature. With Washington pulling back, the EU is scrambling to replace the cash for Europe's USAID widows.

"African Development Foundation" shockingly was engaged in embezzlement/theft.

And yes, oh by the way, the Somali scams were also often tied to USAID funding, despite 'community notes.'

From a 12/17 DR post:
Quote:

The USAID money going to sub-Saharan Africa was about 13 billion dollars annually.

What people miss was that much of that money was contracted out to the great foundations. That is well within the capability of these same great foundations who partner with USAID to carry out these exact same operations alleged to save lives (CHAI, Gates Foundation, etc). Their endowments are enormous, they have all the agreements in place, they have the employees and means to scale up and take over PEPFAR in Africa.

PEPFAR, fwiw, is an initiative by W, to stop AIDS/HIV transmission in Africa, into which we have dumped over $120 billion (probably closer to $150 Billion).

Of the money Power Forward Communities received from the Biden EPA by the end of last year, "more than half went to Abrams's Rewiring America. Power Forward Communities reported that the grant funding was its sole source of revenue last year, indicating that it acted as a pass-through established to distribute taxpayer funds primarily to Rewiring America but under a different name. It disbursed the funding to Rewiring America as Abrams served as its senior counsel and senior adviser, a role she held between March 2023 and early 2025."

I proudly cancelled this grant in March, citing the rampant self-dealing, conflicts of interest, unqualified recipients, and reduced government oversight. The Trump EPA refuses to light taxpayer dollars on fire, which is exactly what the Biden Administration enthusiastically did. The days of these absurd green slush funds are OVER!

Federal grants are not my bailiwick but unless Abrams was giving kickbacks to obtain those grants what else can she be charged with here? Lying on the grant application? Are those under oath or something?

I guess maybe the old Mueller Two Step of defrauding the U.S.?

Any requests for payment under those grants will come with a legal attestation. That may allow her to pin it on whoever signed those payment applications.

On the federally funded programs we work for all include pretty extensive clawback provisions. For our work, the gubmit could visit one of our projects and decide we didnt use the right nail on the roof. We would then owe the program back what we were paid for the roof and what it cost the program to get another contractor to reroof.

And this actually happened to one of our competitors.

Tl;dr the folks from these programs better have had good lawyers write up their LLCs that were part of the scamming; and we should freeze their bank accounts until they can prove their innocence.

Thank you for that clarification. Wasn't sure about how grants work.

Democrat-Communist fake-moderates are suddenly low on cash this cycle.

USAID-related, for sure. The laundering machine, as it were:

What's the wildest USAID grift/money laundering/war mongering/election rigging/animal killing story one is aware of? Perhaps this is in my top 5.
