A lot of people are missing the point with USAID. Yes it’s great we are exposing that our money has been funneled to corrupt institutions, but USAID is not the boogeyman, it is just a tool.
There is a reason Mike Benz ✡️ (Jewish) is running point on this, and it’s to mislead you from the Jewish influence that has actually been running these NGO’s, the Media, and the like.
President Donald Trump has decided to remove security clearances for several Democrats, including former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, and New York Attorney General Letitia James, both of whom are vocal Trump critics.
Former National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, Biden’s Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, and attorneys Andrew Weissmann, Mark Zaid and Norm Eisen.
The move comes a day after Trump stripped his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, of his security clearance and his access to presidential daily briefs.
In a stunning and sweeping emergency injunction that has even stunned the people who demanded it, a Manhattan-based District Judge has just removed Secretary of State Scott Bessent from his authority over the Treasury Department; blocked any political appointee from accessing records within the Treasury Department; blocked any “special appointee” of President Trump from records within Treasury; and demanded that all information previously extracted be destroyed.
The emergency injunction was signed by District Judge Paul Engelmayer in Manhattan, {Ruling pdf Here} determined without any input from the Trump administration and applies until Friday, February 14, 2025, when U.S. District Judge Jeannette A. Vargas will hear the full arguments of the lawsuit.
The emergency ruling comes as a result of 15 (Soros installed) attorneys general from New Jersey, New York, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Nevada, Rhode Island, and Vermont, all filed suit in New York seeking to block Elon Musk and DOGE from access to information that would reveal how activist groups in their states have been funded by the U.S. government.

UPDATE: A comment from the link above. Many good comments but this one is thorough:
This is awesome! I’m dead serious. Under no conceivable reading of the Constitution is this jack wagon judge permitted to do this. This is going to backfire in ways that Lawfare is going to regret far more than their election loss last Fall. This is going to get straight to SCOTUS and SCOTUS very quickly going to strike this down in a way that essentially blocks all other Federal judges from future interference in DOGE and the criminal prosecutions that are going to follow.
Essentially, what they’re arguing is that the President is not actually the President. And a Senate-confirmed Treasury Secretary is not a Senate-confirmed Treasury Secretary unless some Podunk judge says it is okay.
We’re at the point I’ve been stating for many days now: IT IS TIME TO ANNOUNCE THE CRIMINAL PROBE. DOGE has not just uncovered “government inefficiency”. DOGE has uncovered obvious evidence of Federal crimes being committed by USAID employees, Treasury Dept. employees, CPFB employees, etc. Among these are money laundering, racketeering, influence peddling, embezzlement, etc.
Trump should simply issue an EO that as the nation’s Chief Law Enforcement Officer he has direct evidence of federal crimes having been committed. Direct the AG to launch an immediate criminal investigation. And then target not just USAID or CPFB, but the Federal Judges who are participating in obstruction of justice.
In parallel, fast track it to SCOTUS and the central theme of your brief isn’t just that this is absurdly unconstitutional, but also that it is directly interfering in a criminal investigation as well as a national security matter.
The Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf[2] (Arabic: مجلس التعاون لدول الخلیج), also known as the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC; Arabic: مجلس التعاون الخليجي), is a regional, intergovernmental, political, and economic union comprising Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.[3][4] The council’s main headquarters is located in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia.[5] The Charter of the GCC was signed on 25 May 1981, formally establishing the institution.[6]
During the Arab Spring in 2012, Saudi Arabia proposed to transform the GCC into a “Gulf Union” with tighter economic, political and military coordination, a move considered to be intended to counterbalance Iranian influence in the region,[11] however objections were raised by other countries.[12][13] In 2014, Bahraini prime minister Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa said that current events in the region highlighted the importance of the proposal.[14] The Peninsula Shield Force is the military arm of the GCC, formed in 1984.[15]
Important to have some familiarity with the GCC because they are going to figure into Trump’s plans for Gaza. It is the GCC that will invest most of the money. ABN
USAID has pushed nearly half a billion dollars ($472.6m) through a secretive US government financed NGO, “Internews Network” (IN), which has “worked with” 4,291 media outlets, producing in one year 4,799 hours of broadcasts reaching up to 778 million people and “training” over 9000 journalists (2023 figures). IN has also supported social media censorship initiatives.
The operation claims “offices” in over 30 countries, including main offices in US, London, Paris and regional HQs in Kiev, Bangkok and Nairobi. It is headed up by Jeanne Bourgault, who pays herself $451k a year. Bourgault worked out of the US embassy in Moscow during the early 1990s, where she was in charge of a $250m budget, and in other revolts or conflicts at critical times, before formally rotating out of six years at USAID to IN.
Bourgault’s IN bio and those of its other key people and board members have been recently scrubbed from its website but remain accessible atarchive.org. Records show the board being co-chaired by Democrat securocrat Richard J. Kessler and Simone Otus Coxe, wife of NVIDIA billionaire Trench Coxe, both major Democratic donors. In 2023, supported by Hillary Clinton, Bourgault launched a $10m IN fund at the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI). The IN page showing a picture of Bourgault at the CGI has also been deleted.
IN has at least six captive subsidiaries under unrelated names including one based out of the Cayman Islands. Since 2008, when electronic records begin, more than 95% of IN’s budget has been supplied by the US government (thread follows)
In the face of a new executive order issued by President Donald Trump on Wednesday imposing significant penalties on schools that allow males to compete in girls’ sports, the Maine Department of Education (DOE) maintained its commitment to radical gender ideology.
“The Executive Order ‘Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government’ applies to the Federal government/Federal government agencies only and does not inhibit the force of Maine law or locally-adopted school board policies,” said the DOE in a priority notice on January 21, even before the latest White House executive order was issued.
While the state’s education department is currently holding firm in its commitment to the gender ideology that says a boy can identify as the opposite gender and compete against girls, and share their locker rooms and bathrooms, it may soon be forced to capitulate in the face of federal penalties.
President Trump’s latest order would remove all federal funding from educational programs that allow males to compete in girls’ sports.
It also directs the U.S. Department of Justice to prioritize enforcement of Title IX laws banning sexual discrimination against schools that fail to provide girls with an equal opportunity by allowing men to compete against them.
“This is demeaning, unfair, and dangerous to women and girls, and denies women and girls the equal opportunity to participate and excel in competitive sports,” said Trump in his order.
Maine is being ruined by this greedy, obstinate administration. The usual explanation, which is probably about right, is Maine politics are driven by wealthy transient residents who own expensive shorefront properties but live in Maine only during warm months and have zero understanding of the state or of the people who have lived here for generations. It’s a classic form of elite takeover based on smarmy ideological considerations which are entirely disconnected from the real lives of real people. ABN
