DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency), led by Elon Musk, is making waves as it goes through government accounts to cut outrageous spending that has long affected Washington, DC.
Today, we’ll look at just one of the agencies DOGE is auditing: USAID. (United States Agency for International Development)
This agency has had to provide no accountability for decades. Despite the benevolent name, it isn’t just out there helping poor children in third-world countries access clean water.
In fact, this agency has been downright malicious in its efforts to control world media and to spread its agenda globally. It’s absolute madness.
And please remember, this is an agency funded by our tax dollars.
Below, find just a few of the wild expenditures.
Let’s DEI the whole world
Many of the expenditures have gone to make the rest of the world more DEI and LBGTQ-friendly.
- $1.5 million to “advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities”
- $70,000 for production of a “DEI musical” in Ireland
- $47,000 for a “transgender opera” in Colombia
- $32,000 for a “transgender comic book” in Peru
- $2 million for sex changes and “LGBT activism” in Guatemala
- $16 million in funding for institutional contractors in gender development offices
Promoting the climate change agenda
- $4 million of funding for the Center for Climate-Positive Development
- $2.5 million for electric vehicles for Vietnam
Weird money to send to other countries
- $6 million to fund tourism in Egypt
- $12 million in support services to the Bureau for Resilience, Environment, and Food Security
- $6 million in non-emergency funding for redundant administrative supports for the Center of Excellence
- $3 million in non-emergency funding to provide evaluation services for planning and learning programs
- A 2006 archived USAID website proudly claims the agency “supported” revolutions in Ukraine, Georgia, Lebanon, and Kyrgyzstan.
- USAID gave $68,000,000 to the World Economic Forum…
Global health agendas
- Millions to EcoHealth Alliance — which was involved in research at the Wuhan lab
- $37 million to the World Health Organization
- $600,000 to fund technical assistance for family planning in Latin America
- Funding to print “personalized” contraceptives birth control devices in developing countries
Directly funding terrorist groups that are enemies of the US
- Hundreds of thousands of dollars for a non-profit linked to designated terrorist organizations — even AFTER an inspector general launched an investigation
- “Hundreds of thousands of meals that went to al Qaeda-affiliated fighters in Syria”
- Hundreds of millions of dollars to fund “irrigation canals, farming equipment, and even fertilizer used to support the unprecedented poppy cultivation and heroin production in Afghanistan,” benefiting the Taliban
- $50 million to fund condoms in Gaza
George Soros…yes, that George Soros
- $270 million to the East-West Management Institute, an organization partnered with George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, in the last 15 years, according to data from USASpending.gov
- Funding programs including judicial reform, legal aid, and rule of law initiatives in countries like Albania, Armenia, Cambodia, and Georgia
- The Anti-Corruption Action Centre, another Soros-backed entity, also lists USAID as its largest donor, providing 20.7% of its funding
Influencing national and worldwide media
Honestly, now it seems like everyone is Pravda.
USAID has been using these funds to provide training and support to “strengthen independent media,” including large media organizations and smaller or individual media sources operating under “repressive conditions.” (Hey, some of us independent media folks here at home are being repressed!)
- Reporters Without Borders (RSF) revealed that USAID funded 6,200 journalists, 707 non-state media outlets, and 279 media-focused NGOs in more than 30 countries in 2023.
- $8.2 million to Politico for “pro memberships”
- BBC
- The 2025 budget allocated $268.4 million to support “independent media and the free flow of information”
- The New York Times received tens of millions, primarily awarded via the US Dept of Health and Human Services and the National Science Foundation (Just in case you wondered why they pimped the Covid vax so enthusiastically)
- AP and Reuters also received millions in funds
- Multimillion dollar investments in Hungarian news to promote “a free press”
So all that time, folks like us were being accused of peddling conspiracy theories (that were later proven true), being defunded, and being discredited can be traced directly back to our own government. The “fact checks,” the “hit pieces,” and “expert opinions were bought and paid for by the government. And for the record, RFK Jr has been telling us this for several years.
This is state-sponsored propaganda, plain and simple. And you can expect the “mainstream media” to scramble and say that none of this is true or we don’t understand. Everything on the first four pages of Google is articles excusing the expenditures or trying to “debunk” these claims.
We came so close to losing our country forever.
I firmly believe that had our new administration not begun investigating all this, we’d have been lost as a free country with free speech and free media. We came centimeters away from losing it all, forever.
This list is by no means comprehensive and you can expect to see many more shocking revelations of where our tax dollars have been going. If you’re not outraged, you are suffering from such cognitive dissonance that can never be cured.
What do you think about all this? Did you realize how much was being spent on propaganda, DEI, climate change, and influencing other countries?
Let’s discuss it in the comments section.

This is absolutely disgraceful. The media has been bought and paid for which is why Trump labels them as enemies of the state. They have lied to us again and again.
I’ve heard of some of these here and there over the years. Lately I’ve heard of many of these you posted… however seeming this list in one place is eye opening! Thanks for sharing~
Wait until Elon gets to DOD. He will truly be stunned by what he uncovers.
Yes! The week after Biden was installed, the military reduced training & had to take classes on how to look at their brother/sister in arms as an individual (counterintuitive to what they are taught the second they get off the boot camp bus).
Enlistment is now at an all time high. Our Airman daughter just told us that the VA is behind 300,000 claims due to Biden’s regime. Absolutely disgusting & laughable.
trillions have vanished there.
they left and right will try to keep him out of the dod
Until just recently I had no idea what USAID was funding; it’s appalling. I pray the entire operation is shut down immediately and all staff laid off. I’ve read that most countries receiving this “aid” didn’t want what was being provided in the first place. And re condoms in Gaza, evidently many got used for arson balloons to set fires in Israeli fields and woods. And evidently the IDF has found all sorts of stuff in Lebanon provided by USAID that went to Hezbollah. So yeah, we’re funding terrorists.
You are so absolutely right. We did almost lose our free country. The questions now are: can we eliminate these expenditures and can we keep this from happening again before this administration is done? The extreme left got such a strangle hold on so many things in this country. I know so many people who were “misinformed” and “misled”. Lord, I thank you for opening our eyes and protecting us from ourselves, continue to lead us to keep this country free and established on Your principles.
Excellent article. Let’s spread the news. 🙂
Now we know who was paying for all the protestors everywhere we turned.
It has been fun to watch all the tantrums & pretend outrage.
Daisy, you are so right. We almost lost our government. George Washington told us, “The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury.” Sounds like the Biden crime family and the rest of the government. Expose them all, regardless of party affiliation.
And I love it that it’s all coming to light.
Daily, I watch congresspeople and senators gather in the streets absolutely rabid, screaming and making threats against our existing administration to whatever news media will give them a microphone. The deep state has been found out and the days of lining their pockets with easy money is quickly coming to an end.
But I want some accountability. Follow that money back and find out just whose pockets it landed in.
I would love to see some indictments in the not too distant future.
Ho hum. Every day – Another embezzling department outed, another 100 billion grabbed from the circling drain of multilevel money laundering corruption. Another list of commie NGO’s and fake news orgs going out of business.
Are we tired of winning yet?
Now if only I can talk my wife and her family off the window ledge… it’s gonna be OK.
Here’s 68 million for a WEF ski club in Davos:

There MUST be consequences! This is theft!
These days, the headlines bring one delight after another. But I wont be satisfied until I see a perp walk with the one crook who did NOT get a retroactive pardon from Biden — The Big Guy himself, Chief Crook Joe Biden.
Oh, by pardoning hunter he actually pardond himself.
He was involved in everything his drug-addict kid did.
Under bomma I read a while back the USA paid about 4 billion for the *revolution* that
removed the legit president of ukraine and installed.. a comedian, seriously
That midget is a bad comedian/singer/actor.
He grew up not poor but close, now his parents have a small mansion in israel that we likely paid for.
Like you say, all of our “Conspiracy Theories” are coming true. When Orban in Hungary says that it’s the U.S. that is sponsoring the protests, and attempted “colour” revolution in his country – he’s right. When Georgia says that the attempted overthrow of their government is being funded by the U.S. they aren’t kidding. When Russia says that the 2014 coup in Ukraine that has led to our present situation was engineered U.S. sponsored agencies we should probably pay attention.
Condoms in Garza is a big enough waste of our money, but when you look at the money that has been spent influencing or even overthrowing sovereign, legitimate governments it’s no wonder the world is in the situation that we find ourselves in. I just don’t think that Trump has a big enough broom, or enough time to be able to clean up the mess that the “deep state” has created over the last few decades.
We sent vast sums of taxpayer money to the WEF and George Soros…so they could all get together in swanky meetings and plan our control and demise? Whoever is behind those decisions needs to be exposed and do jail time.
I am Catholic, have NEVER donated to Catholic Charites and stopped donating to an actual Catholic Parish in over a decade, because I had this feeling that they were involved in some shady stuff. Not all of them but most, and have seen up close in person what these “charities” do with the money. I also know there was some program in Houston, where I moved from over 8 years ago, called Acorn, and they were going around giving gift cards at the homeless shelters and bus stops , to sign up people to vote for obummer. This Acorn program was also funded by USAID, if I am not mistaken. I figured that these “programs ” were bilking the American People out of their hard earned money and funding some weirdo stuff. I actually took some economic courses and saw the US Debt Clock and was shocked. They were literally giving money to “Hookers for Jesus” which is sacrilege. Also money for planned parenthood, or should I say Planned killings. I get pissed off every time I think of this waste and our tax money going to these programs. Go Elon and DOGE. It’s gonna get worse before it gets better, but this economy has to get straightened out and I believe we’re going to go through a really rough 6 months to a year. And the globalist elite scum of the earth and their puppets are going to stop at nothing to not be exposed.
Watching the panic of those in the government as DOGE exposes the fraud, waste and abuse has been a delight. This is the kind of action we have been wanting to see for years. Not just talk but real action. I want to see investigations of who knew what, when, why and who signed off on this fraud. And I want to see people held accountable.
Yes, this was in fact the most important election of our times. And it is proving results for the better for the people.
Truly disgraceful and pork barrel special interest at its worse. Especially giving money to George Soros affiliate organizations. Add the money we spend to fund United Nations this money could solve so many problems like homelessness, and care for veterans to name a couple.
Is the Pentagon budget next!?
And now we see the first articles of impeachment being drawn up for this administration. They are running scared. Impeachment no longer means anything, and they’ll do anything they can to stop Trump’s eye-opening revelation of where our money is truly going.
