  • “This is probably the worst self-inflicted wound I’ve seen the United States make since the Iraq war.”
    US AID has been subject to “outrageous claims” and “intense propaganda” that have then been repeated by Donald Trump, says former administrator of the US AID Brian Atwood.

    Gutting America’s young intelligence agency recruits, hammering our soft power, and leaving the country teetering on the brink of a full blown civil kerfuffle after only a few weeks? It’s like a coldwar villain’s wetdream…

    The US dollar will stay strong as far as maintaining the standard of living in the USA, much like the British pound remained strong after that empire crumbled. What's at stake however is the USA's determination to keep the dollar as global reserve and its ability to use SWIFT banking to hold the rest of the world's economies hostage through sanctions, tariffs and currency manipulation.

    The only propaganda here is coming from this former administrator.
    They have all the documents, it's not propaganda.
    The judge made the order within a timer frame that was so fast it's clear he couldn't possible have read it, yet alone consider the arguments. ie the Judge issued the order without reading the argument and not allowing the administration a right of reply yet alone be notified about the case.
    So clearly a poltical decision, possible corrupt.
    So no, don't believe the documents, don't believe the payments, just believe the people who appeared to benefit from it cry about how bad and evil it is.
    Its simple the people concerned about this are the people committing the fraud.
    The people of America voted for this, this is democracy in action. Rule by bureaucracy is not democracy. You might not like it, but this is how it's meant to work in a free an open society.
    The opposite is how it works in China.

    Let's talk about capitalism. I refuse to allow economists and the oligarchy to define "capitalism." Definitions become another weapon of oppression. Capitalism = the owners of capital own the profits. Socialism = workers share in the profits of those that own the capital. Nothing in these two definitions indicate the existence of Wall Street, shareholders, nor stock buybacks, the existence of which stems from cronyism. Capitalism has, as its feature, the working poor to enrich the owners of capital. The foundation of the U.S. was built on this exploitation of labor. It was called, "slavery." Today, CEOs and shareholders expect to profits off the backs of labor, indentured servitude, and slavery in developing countries, controlled by dictators and puppets of the American military industrial complex. In the U.S., child labor is once again becoming commonplace. Weeks before Biden left office, he announced a $3.3 billion taxpayer subsidy to Microsoft, a company worth $3 trillion. CNN and MSNBC gaslit the American people by pontificating how great Biden was and that this money would be used to, "create American jobs." Soon after, Microsoft announced they were firing 10,000 workers. Greed is ending any promise of a true democracy. It will only get worse.
