Another article in the same 'The Nation' edition, criticized USAID as 'Not Worth Blindly Defending'. "But as they rushed to USAID’s defense, the Democrats also inadvertently highlighted an uncomfortable truth about the agency: that, for decades, it has been an essential arm of American imperialism that often serves as a tool for regime change, election interference, and the destabilization of countries around the world." |

Maybe just subcontract election interference out to C-BS? War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 148 Posts: 25978 | Just saw a clip from 1993 with Bill Clinton and Al Gore talking about how they were going to make way more drastic cuts to the federal government than Trump is making. They were going to fire more workers and close more agencies than what Trump proposed and the Democrats were cheering their heads off. Now that Trump is doing it, it's the most evil thing they've ever heard of. Of course Bill Clinton never did it, it was early in 1993 he'd just been elected. Trump is doing it because Trump always does what he says he's going to do. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

So they instructed us to try to identify, to try to get the client, because once they arrive here, they're now called clients. —So they told us that we needed to talk to the client and ask them if they had any headaches, recurring headaches, or any lower back problems, anything that would qualify them for Social Security Long Term Disability Yes, it is insanity. But in order to get Social Security disability benefits, don't you need a Social Security number? Well, we were instructed in the meeting that one of the first things we were supposed to do was sign them up for Social Security. . . . https://x.com/wallstreetapes/status/1891895227067269464 ----------------- |

Streamline it, look for waste. Stop harassing people with the "wrong" politics. IOW, like the rest of what DOGE is doing. BTW: Tax avoidance is not a crime, it is what smart people do. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

Streamlining it would improve its ability to collect taxes. Do you think it's there to help you avoid taxes? "Trumpsplain (def.) explaining absolute nonsense said by TRUMP. |
