Thoughts on DOGE finding this out?
- Thread starter BrunoMars420
- Start date
Being that almost all of these have been disproven to this point I'll just sit on the sidelines until there is more information.
Then you don’t belong here. 😝
According to some on here it’s not the problem. The fact the graft is being found and reported is the problem.
Guys who hit 400 make the HOF, a shit ton of real fraud is also being found in the spaghetti.
Let's see some evidence instead of more nazi lies.
The soros fund might have some legs and get interesting.
Links on it being disproven? So much shit out in the world that it is hard to know what is real or not atm.
Lots of take me at my word by whichever side confirms your bias on the medias.
Keep going. You’re on the cusp
Also Wikileaks picking this up gives it more credibility imo then some random yahoo making a tiktok video.
It takes a special kind of stupid to give weight to jumping to conclusions like this
The New York/Politico claim ended up being false because what they actually pulled was money USAID gave to projects in the state of New York.
You should ask yourself, why do all of the things they release seem to fit their taking points. We are under a disinformation assault right now. I'll just assume everything is false until I read otherwise. I said in another thread that for every person that reads these claims there will be a handful that never get to see the correction.

Yeah I’m ignoring a lot of it but Wikileaks picking this one up makes me believe it a little more with their history.The New York Times claim ended up being false because what they actually pulled was money USAID gave to projects in the state of New York.

I get that. I will say that recently my trusted news sites and sources list is shrinking. It's pretty unfortunate and makes it a lot harder to find good information.
Nuff said. Doge is a disaster for dem corruption and control. Take it all to the ground amd start over.

Agree, An obvious agenda is being driven with info released. Is there waste, Obviously, You will find it all across government. The info released always seems to be the same, Huge anti left slant. All Americans should want waste eliminated but giving only one party that is obviously agenda driven the chainsaw is not in the best interest of the Country.
It makes my neck hurt to think about how far your head is up your ass.
This charity doesn't look that sinister to me.
If you are interested in their work you can look at their site.
Their tax forms are available to anyone online. Their donors and supporters are listed on line. They have documentation of the work they are doing.
I don't think there is evidence to support this as a "state run media network." A lot of their work appears to be promoted press and free speech in places where there is limited media and free speech protection.

The politico transaction is still a waste of taxpayer money and we discussed how we both wanted those funds to go to PBS. So not false but the narrative is the issue. IMO we shouldn’t be paying private news organizations with out tax dollars.The New York/Politico claim ended up being false because what they actually pulled was money USAID gave to projects in the state of New York.

The DEI portion in other countries is still all a waste of taxpayer money. Also, have there been follow ups on if it was actually used for said initiatives?
Then the Sesame Street in Iraq and such. Still a MASSIVE waste of money and politifact confirm it still paid for it.
Wikileaks gives nothing credibility. Putin's dick is so far down Julian's mouth that you could consider it part of his body at this point.
Did you read your article? Where is any of it being disproven? Oh, it came from the state dept instead of usaid. How does that make a difference? It's still coming out of our pockets. They're not funding polico they're just using our money to buy millions of dollars in subscriptions including some that are over $20,000 per year.The New York/Politico claim ended up being false because what they actually pulled was money USAID gave to projects in the state of New York.

Everything in this article describes the problem. You think it's disproving but it is not. No matter what words you use to describe it.
I think we can all agree that a lot of the money being confirmed being sent out of country for initiatives can be better spent within our borders for our public schools, infrastructure, etc… Also for you MAGA, this all happened for 4 years under Trump as well.
US aid can be good but let’s be smart about it.
SpaceX received over 3.5 billion dollars in government contracts last year alone.
Launching and developing satellites for the military might be a little more important than drag shows.SpaceX received over 3.5 billion dollars in government contracts last year alone.
Just sayin.
Literally everything we did in Iraq was a giant waste of money. It cost over a trillion to bomb them, rebuild them, occupy them, and cover VA for veterans.
Sesame street for Iraq may be the best investment we made over there. If I capped the estimate of money blown on Iraq and figured the percentage of how much the Sesame Street spending was of overall spending it is .00002%. That would be $20 dollars out of a million to break it down further to show scale.
Let me ask you this. When the cuts they want to make like OSHA, NLRB, CFPB, USAID etc are complete, and they increase tax cuts to the wealthy again, and create an additional 3 trillion dollars of deficit; what will be the end result?
Tesla is the national leader in OSHA violations by a large amount. The NLRB has been in lawsuit with Musk companies a few times. The CFPB was investing Musk. USAID was investigating Starlink.
Oligarchs are going to put it to us. As income inequality grows, and the government shrinks, and companies get more deregulated then you will find that America looks more not as great as it once did. Trump even said that his ideal America was 1890 to 1913 which if you were not wealthy was a terrible time for Americans.
The initial claim of the 8 million was incorrect, that query covered the entire state of New York. I was also going to include a Newsweek link that covered it in that post you are responding to that covered it better but I decided against the link. This guardian one also covers it.

This is a real organization that has been getting government money for years. $50m per year during the Trump years.
Whether the expense is warranted is a separate question, but these are all being “exposed” and misleadingly presented as Biden’s secret scams and grifts.
SpaceX received over 3.5 billion dollars in government contracts last year alone.
They provided launch services to the military at a fraction of the cost of alternatives. Dipshit.
One man’s legitimate “service” is another man’s “grift.”
You see the point?
This guy is now a full-blown MAGA.
Takes seriously all the propaganda/bullshit they spew out and trumpets it as loudly as they do.
Doesn't question at all any of it. Winston at the end of 1984 after he's been brainwashed.

If America escapes Elon's grip then they should claim his space program and roll it into NASA. Then he should be deleted.
USAID is not an investigative body.
Just make shit up why don’t you?
SpaceX was “investigated” for not hiring refugees. That “investigation” was frivolous and went nowhere because it was horseshit political in nature. Federal missile technology regulations prevent SpaceX from hiring unvetted refugee non-citizens. The dumb**** Biden stooge never bothered to check on that before launching the “investigation.”
Musk wouldn’t bend the knee to Dems so they went after him. Worst abuse of power I’ve seen in my lifetime.
I didn’t think so.
Why is an expenditure for health care in developing nations or training journalists in far-flung countries”waste”?
Because you say it is? Because Musk or Wikileaks says it is?
Conversely, why is it assumed SpaceX spend is not waste? I’m sure some would say it is.
