How much power would you have if you had a giant money machine that showered your political allies and political causes that you favor with tens of billions of dollars every year? The corruption that is being uncovered at USAID is truly historic. USAID has a budget that is larger than the CIA and the State Department combined, and much of that money was funding a vast network of liberal activists and liberal causes all over the globe. When Laura Ingraham of Fox News asked U.S. Senator Josh Hawley about this, Hawley explained that Democrats “are just losing their minds” because “liberal supply chains” are being cut off…

“They’re panicking big time, Laura, because their power base is being threatened,” Hawley replied. “That’s what’s really going on here. I mean, look at what they’re doing over USAID. This is because they’ve used that as their personal plaything, and that includes billions and billions of taxpayer dollars that have gone, yes, to fund outrageous stuff overseas, like trans-affirming projects in Zimbabwe or whatever. But also, let’s not forget to fund their preferred media outlets like Politico and who knows what other Left-wing rags have been getting money. Federal government money from this agency, and there’s been no accountability.”
“So yes — what’s happening is Trump is exposing all of this. He is cutting off the liberal supply chains, as it were, and the liberals are just losing their minds. They’re totally losing their minds. We need more of it. You mentioned the IRS. I love it. I love Trump’s idea to get rid of the Internal Revenue Service. Let’s make it the External Revenue Service. Let’s start making these agencies work for the American people.
Leftists have been in charge at USAID for a very long time, and they just kept hiring other leftists underneath them. Ultimately, it became one enormous tangled web of left-wing activists that were overtly advancing the interests of the Democratic Party.
One of the primary ways that USAID was doing this was by funding thousands of “non-governmental organizations”.
According to the State Department, there are approximately 1.5 million “non-governmental organizations” in the U.S. today…
Approximately 1.5 million NGOs operate in the United States. These NGOs undertake a wide array of activities, including political advocacy on issues such as foreign policy, elections, the environment, healthcare, women’s rights, economic development, and many other issues.
“Non-governmental organizations” are not supposed to make a profit. But those that run them, those that sit on their boards, and those that are employed by them often make exceedingly large salaries.
This is one of the ways that Democratic operatives and campaign donors are rewarded. They are often given cushy high-paid jobs with NGOs that are funded lavishly by our tax dollars. In turn, those operatives and donors keep giving big money to Democratic candidates because they want to keep the gravy train rolling.
It is being reported that the majority of all USAID programs were being implemented by NGOs…
Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) implement the majority (52%) of USAID programs, while public international organizations administer 34%, the U.S. government is responsible for about 10% and foreign governments implement about 4%, according to a CRS study of USAID non-military funding between fiscal years 2013-2022.
