Project 2025 is behind all this and has been since the first day Trump took office! It’s been project 25’s plan and it’s been initiated from day one! JD is part of project 25 and many other people are involved. USAID was the projects biggest endeavor then immigration was on the list too!

Dear Wired, those of us in the #MacularDegenerationGeneration (AKA Baby Boomers) would really appreciate it it you'd include audio narration for all your articles. As I'm sure you know, there are AI tools to quickly generate spoken text. I am a subscriber.

WIRED first reported that Marko Elez had read/write access to two BFS systems. Documents now reveal that Elez also had “read” access to an accounting system where federal funds are stored in pre-authorized accounts as of February 1—appearing in line with plans to target USAID.

Doge is essentially a fiction created for the convenience of Elon Musk,for the purpose of obfuscation. Why use a term that masks reality? Call these actions what they are. Musk destruction. Don’t anoint him with a title whose actual definition includes the word elected. He was not.

What's the impact? Gutting USAID program like Fews Net, a long-running, broadly successful data analysis initiative that provides guidance to ensure that food aid is delivered in the least-wasteful way possible. “If you withdraw Fews Net, systems will collapse."

Last month, we also took a look at how USAID cuts have already led to devastating impacts around the world. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, teams that would normally be racing to identify a fatal sickness are gone.

Listen up to everybody Trump has mental stability issue. Musk knows this. Musk is in charge. He paid off Trump. And he is cutting everything. He does not care about any one of us. He cares about his contracts and his tax cuts. He must be stopped. He will destroy this country. That’s the truth.

Putin sent Elon and Trump to sabotage our government infrastructure and economy because he has financial leverage over them. A 2nd grader would run the government with less turmoil so you can't convince me it's not purposeful action to weaken America.

Trump was notorious for cheating his sub-contractors and not paying his bills…owes NY over $450M for cheating on his business taxes. So, no surprise Trump is making America in his own image-ugly, untrustworthy, delinquent loners.

Musk had his targets lined up. Any agency that had “crossed him.” USAID was investigating Starlink Ukraine contracts & his actions to limit service. FAA was looking into SpaceX rocket safety. CFPB handled Tesla complaints Treasury. GSA & IRS have the $$ keys to competitor contract data. Follow the $
