USAID only makes up .7% of our budget. This is chess move…

This isn’t the head of the snake, I think it achieves several goals.
They are generating American support with these audacious spending programs.
They are setting traps to weed out bad actors.
Now the dems will try to stop cabinet appointments, and Trump will he justified doing recess appointments.

It would seem the USAID is the mechanism for paying politicians and their cronies who determine our entire budget. So in essence it is the entire budget.

Do you think 100% of the waste and fraud is contained in .7% of the budget?
Of course not, this is merely an appetizer.

They have a particular attachment to USAID, though.
Idk if it’s because it was one of their favorite slush funds or they’re trying to take a stand before DOGE moves to more sensitive areas.

Obviously it's enough to corrupt the system and allow the scum in DC to create a dysfunctional government that seeks it's own direction and frick over the tax payers that fund the entire thing.
It's a huge deal. That's why the Marxist are screaming!!!!

Hit FEMA and DoE next and the numbers get better.

Yup, but I think it’s just the tip of the iceberg…
Posted on 2/4/25 at 8:09 am to MrXYZ
i think they are being thorough...if it's waste it should get cut.
Posted on 2/4/25 at 8:09 am to MrXYZ
It is bringing things to light for the avg citizen. 3 weeks in, so much to go.

Exactly; our elected idiots need to stop with the "it's only a few million or billion dollars."

I don't think it gets more sensitive to these grifters than shutting off the spigot to their NGOs, which they use to make themselves incredibly rich at OUR expense.

No. That $40 billion is where the Deep State gets paychecks. There's a ton more waste and fraud.

Great point. The progs threatening to shut the govt down will not go over well. Most people don't care. CNN, MSNBC and others have almost no pull

I don’t know enough about any of this stuff, but didn’t they basically have uncapped spending? So is it possible that they counted .7 on paper, bit racked a bunch more debt?
Posted on 2/4/25 at 8:14 am to MrXYZ
The reaction by the Dems regarding that .7% of the US budget makes me think we need to go after a few more .7% of the budget agencies.

This is an underrated comment.
Think for a minute back to what we learned with Kamala and Oprah and Beyonce.
Harris was so incompetent that she inadvertantly revealed that MONEY was what was behind these celebrity endorsements.
IOW, 100% manufactured.
Same with this. The money spigot turns off and where do all the so-called activists go?
They go home.
