Deep State Corruption and Opposition
- Thread starter GURPS
- Start date
The Great Battle for Control of USAID continued over the weekend. This morning, CNN ran the very encouraging headline, “USAID workers at Washington HQ told to stay home on Monday in unexpected, early-morning email.” Unexpected? It shouldn’t have surprised them, not if they followed Elon Musk’s twitter feed over the weekend. Speaking of Elon’s feed— it produced one of the most remarkable discussions I’ve ever seen online:
There was a dramatic bureaucratic showdown at USAID heaquarters (now closed) yesterday. One’s heart grieves for the two top USAID security officials who were forced to come in to work on Sunday. Worse, even after that sacrifice, the Administration fired them (placed on administrative leave). It seems they came in just to block DOGE staff from accessing the USAID computers.
Apparently, the DOGE people even threatened to call the cops on the USAIDers.
Ironically, the USAID people claimed the agency’s data was classified. Remember, the media wants everyone to think USAID just gives school lunches to starving Rwandan kindergartners. The truth is USAID is the deep state’s right tentacle, and diligent independent researchers were chopping that slimy limb off all weekend by outing the agency over and over again.
With enthusiastic support from one Elon Musk, who happily re-tweeted each new disclosure.
Most amusingly, RINO neocon and Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol, popped up yesterday to defend the Deep State and, as shown in the screen grab above, Bill —not at all reading the room— expressed his deep personal preference for the Swamp.
But, as a diligent independent researcher immediately noted, the Swamp pays Bill for his support, quite handsomely too, through a now-unsurprising series of deceptively named nonprofits.
In other words, the awful situation we find ourselves in is that USAID doesn’t just destabilize foreign governments. It’s also been buying off destabilizing influencers here at home, too. That includes journalists, like the aforementioned Bill Kristol, politicians like Representative AOC (D-NY), chaos agents like Alexander Vindman, mass murdering bioengineers like Ecohealth Alliance and the Wuhan Lab, Ukraine (of course), the Clinton Foundation, and most especially Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC):
That list only scratched the surface. Independent online sleuths quickly found these connections just using open-source information, linking the octopus-like agency to various public figures and organizations. We haven’t even seen yet what more DOGE will come up with.
The Trump people know all about USAID. Here’s a pre-election clip of RFK explaining to Tucker Carlson how USAID funded Ukraine’s 2014 overthrow:
CLIP: Robert Kennedy explains USAID’s connection to the Ukrainian coup (1:36).
Curiously, and highly suggestively, right around the same time Lindsay Graham’s links to USAID started appearing online, the Senator reversed course and unenthusiastically said on Fox he would, after all, vote for Tulsi, RFK, and Kash Patel, all three, for sure:
CLIP: Senator Graham’s dramatic turnaround on Trump nominees (0:58).
USAID’s collapse and Lindsay’s helpful vote were completely unconnected. Right?
USAID’s controlled demolition is rippling across the planet. One example included a ‘shocking’ and ‘unexpected’ development in the Proxy War. You will never guess what the green sweatshirt man said this time. Honor compels me to screen grab the original headline and the picture together. Eurasia Daily’s combination was simply too good, I’d like to shake the headline editor’s hand:
“When they say that Ukraine received 200 billion during the war to support the army and so on, this is not true,” Zelensky told a reporter from Strana. “I do not know where all this money is,” he pleaded earnestly. Don’t blame me.
You cannot make this stuff up. Was the timing of Zelensky’s sudden and unprovoked confession of a missing $100 billion a coincidence, or was it related to the rapid weekend collapse of USAID’s fortress of dirty tricks?
I note without comment that the money to Ukraine flowed, or would have flowed, through USAID.
Could this be it? Could this scorched-earth, headquarters-shuttering USAID purge be the long-awaited housecleaning moment, forecast from the movie Sum of All Fears, via a scene set to Trump’s favorite aria, Nessun Dorma? Last night, before boarding Air Force One, President Trump actually answered questions and told barking reporters that USAID was run by “a bunch of radical lunatics.” He promised, “we're getting them out, and then we'll make a decision.”
CLIP: President Trump calls USAID a bunch of radical lunatics (0:15).
What decision? We are waiting to find out with rapt attention.

Did Trump destroy the Deep State over the weekend? Because it sure looks like it. That, and all about Trump's Tariffs, and the breathtaking plan he might actually have in view. Plus more.

This move is massive.
I have a feeling this is going to lead to some serious DECLAS. Haiti, The Clintons and COVID come to mind…
