USAID is stripped of its lease and staffers turned away from DC headquarters

Staffers will be paid for no work and the government will end up leasing more office space. That's Trump's America for you.

While the judge ordered the administration to restore agency email access for staffers, the order said nothing about reopening USAID headquarters. Some staffers and contractors reported having their agency email restored by Monday, while others said they did not.

Musk and Trump need to stop all of this. If they want to make changes, fine. They need to go through Congress.

Why did Musk investigate USAID first even though it is such a tiny budget item?

Maybe because Musk's company, Starlink, was under investigation by USAID shortly before he began calling for the shutdown.

Starlink's activity in Eastern Europe has been criticized, with many Russian operatives claiming to have access to Starlink despite Musk's assurances that only Ukraine was using the service.

In charge of $13+ billion in aid to rebuild Haiti, $1.1 billion of that was funneled by USAID and another $84 million to *Chelsea Clinton***, **

Haiti never saw that money, and now the country is ruled by murderous gangs. This is why the Democrats are so outraged about when they say “Elon Musk unelected billionaire”

But no Dem outraged? No mention? Next, the Department of Education

This will all go about as well as when Musk took over Twitter.

(For reference, Twitter lost 79% of its value since Musk bought it.)

@bass4funk

Canada does not have a federal department of education and outperforms the US by a significant margin in the PISA tests so I would suggest the US has no need for a Department of Education, leave education up to the states.

No, because it's complete fabrication.

Sorry, the documents don’t lie, but I see now why the Dems are trying to stall the inevitable, again, I can’t wait for people to be fired at the DOE.

This is what happens when you get your news from Twitter.

What?? Get a grip.

And the rise in its usage is up 240% by more conservatives since he bought it and re-allowed free speech on the platform.

Free-speech isn't allowed on X. If Musk doesn't like what you post, it gets removed and you get cancelled.

That's because it is fake news.

Then you think so, I don’t based on documents.

They have no authority to make funding changes there as well.

But it’s coming, get ready.

Sorry, the documents don’t lie,

Yes they do. I just posted a link debunking it. Here's a couple more:

“In 2010, then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton helped oversee $4.4 billion that Congress had earmarked for ‘recovery’ efforts in Haiti by the USAID in 2010.”

The USAID also funded media organizations to cover up that they were sex trafficking kids AKA Pizzagate and all with YOUR hard earned taxpayer money!

So do you believe in Pizzagate? You you think that Hilary Clinton was sex trafficking kids?

Take your pick.

USAID budget remains something like 0.6% of the federal budget but the rear hurt from MAGAs is apparently priceless.

Musk to be held for contempt of court

$84 million to Chelsea! In China that would result in the death penalty for corruption.

The US government is a gift that keeps giving. You all should be grateful for Trump and Musk. They are saving you money both working for free. Trump isn’t taking a salary is he?

Truly public servants.

USAID will remain, it will just get gutted to the core of unnecessary bloated pork

USAID is being cut because the cruelty is the point. So far most of Trump/Musk’s actions have been to make life more miserable for people who can’t fight back.

Most of USAID is not waste. Unless you think, which it seems MAGA does, that helping the poor, the starving, the sick, and the oppressed is a waste of money.

BTW, Chelsea Clinton didn’t receive $84 million, and Gaza didn’t receive $50 million worth of condoms.

—What's the source that Haiti never saw that money or of the 84 million?

Lame.

USAID is some of the cheapest "soft power" that the US has. This is not just a bad look for the US, it makes us look like China - stingy with aid where it is needed.

Just wait until they go through Education, Transportation, Environmental Protection Agency, the Pentagon and other agencies.

Then throw in tax cuts for the middle class, no tax on social security, no tax on tips and tax cuts for the top %. Things are looking good for Americans.

The conduct of this agency was openly slammed in the UN security council a few hours ago. Pretending it is a benevolent organization masks related controversial activities.

$84 million to Chelsea! In China that would result in the death penalty for corruption.

Except that it isn't true. There is that tiny detail.

No, there’s no reason to fund any foreign country for Transgender surgery, none.

Really now???

-$100 Million on Expanding Atheism in Nepal

-Transgendered Opera's in Colombia

-Drag shows in Ecuador

Unless you think, which it seems MAGA does, that helping the poor, the starving, the sick, and the oppressed is a waste of money. 

So why doesn’t that money go to the homeless in California? You know the 52k on the streets?

BTW, Chelsea Clinton didn’t receive $84 million, and Gaza didn’t receive $50 million worth of condoms.

You go and believe that, I believe differently BTW

USAID has never pretended to be a benevolent organization. It has always been a means of the US projecting soft power.

Unfortunately, these are the consequences of corruption and it’s clean up. This is normal in China, the innocent suffer.

To rule 1.4 billion people well, that's what you have to do. The U.S. is only 330 million but you do what you have to do.

A couple of rotten apples? The whole bushel has got to go. Green moldy mikans? Toss the whole box out. Throw the baby out with the bath water,

Not all the chickens burned by Biden were bad were they?

By funneling money and keeping a slush fund, those who betrayed the trust are making life more miserable fir those who can’t fight back.

There is no corruption.

Musk and Trump are dismantling America department by department.

New tax filings show that the Musk Foundation fell $421 million short of the amount it was required to give away in 2023.

I agree, which is why I think the whole republican party should have been eradicated after the insurrection of January 6th.

Yes, fantastic!

Which they are free to look at since he’s always been transparent, if the left is looking trying to bullseye him, good luck.

...and accuse its work around the world of being out of line with Trump's agenda.

A short thought process leads from that to "Trump's agenda does not involve helping people". Which is 90 per cent of the way there but is missing the end: "...unless they're extremely rich and likely don't need help anyway, conservative enough to fall off the right side of the scale, and ideally white".

Which they are free to look at since he’s always been transparent,

So transparent that the SEC is pursuing several cases against him. Which is why he got into politics in the first place. To escape the jail time he knows he's bound for once the ponzis start falling apart.

Musk and Trump are dismantling America department by department.

Yes, fantastic!

I assume your ideal scenario is that described in a short joke:

Ayn Rand, Rand Paul, and Paul Ryan Walk Into a Bar

They have a few drinks and then die from methanol poisoning due to a lack of government regulation.

What are you going to say when Musk starts gutting a department which you actually approve of? Or do you assume that the very concept of government is outdated and we just need a nice cuddly dictator who will tell us all what to do?

He just announced a freeze on funding the USDA, which is a nice middle finger to the farmers (most of whom voted for him). I assume you think farmers deserve it?

He's cutting vast amounts of funding from cutting edge medical research. I assume you'll be fine knowing that people with serious problems may die as a result of this?

What happens when he finally does something you disapprove of? Will that be "fantastic"? Or are you so far gone that he literally can't do anything wrong in your book?

Relax, it’s not going away, just because you have a cavity, doesn’t mean that you have to extract every single tooth in your mouth, it just means taking out the bad one.

He's cutting vast amounts of funding from cutting edge medical research. I assume you'll be fine knowing that people with serious problems may die as a result of this?

Good, I’m happy, the cuts were necessary, they have more than enough, but if they need more, they can always go to Congress and ask, and now we will know exactly what they need, for what and why, because we will be monitoring it, so I think it’s a great thing.

 Or are you so far gone that he literally can't do anything wrong in your book?

I do think there is a minority of MAGA fans who will still actively support everything Trump does -and find somebody else to blame- even if it hurts them in a direct and unequivocal way. Being in a cult is no joke.

Finally an administration taking seriously the obligations of fiscal responsibility.

Those trillions of dollars in tax cuts have to come from somewhere, even if that means taking food away from starving children.

Such nice people.

Promoting dance performances by transgenders in Haiti wasn't feeding any children.

In his first term, Trump gave a $2 trillion tax cut to the rich and increased national Debt by $7 trillion.

Fascinating. That includes the Department of Justice, of Commerce, of Defense, of Labor... You're advocating for cutting all of them and... then what?

Does that include the DOD, Pentagon, and $800 billion in military spending?

Promoting dance performances by transgenders in Haiti wasn't feeding any children.

About 500,000 metric tons of food worth $340 million is in limbo, in transit or storage, as humanitarian organizations wait for U.S. State Department approval to distribute it, said Marcia Wong, a former senior USAID official who has been briefed on the situation.

The Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET), the U.S. entity that produced regular food security alerts meant to prevent famine, also has been shut down. Its loss leaves aid organizations without a key source of guidance on where and how to deploy humanitarian relief.

And the U.S. government issued stop-work orders to two major manufacturers of nutritional supplements, diminishing the supply of life-saving food for severely malnourished children around the world.

Kids are literally dying but hey, as long as you can stick it to those annoying transgenders, right?

--BTW, Chelsea Clinton didn’t receive $84 million, and Gaza didn’t receive $50 million worth of condoms.
