Senator John Kennedy never minces words when he has something to say.
This was one of those occasions.
And John Kennedy dropped one bombshell that put Trump’s supporter’s jaws on the ground.
As Great American Digest reports:
Democrats finally drew their line in the sand to fight Donald Trump.
And it was over the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
Senator John Kennedy warned USAID was a hotbed of corruption.
“A lot of my Democratic colleagues and most of the members of the tofu crowd are very upset. They’re screaming like Musk stole their dog or something,” Kennedy said in an interview on Fox News. “But one thing they are not talking about is what Mr. Musk is finding. Just at the USAID, he found hundreds of millions, maybe billions of dollars’ worth of spending porn.”
After the DOGE audit, Donald Trump folded USAID into the State Department, recalled all foreign-based employees, and signed an order intending to put 97 percent of employees on administrative leave.
Democrats and the media claimed USAID was a noble agency that provided food and medicine to starving and sick people around the world to advance American interests.
The truth was far more sinister.
USAID’s $44 billion budget is actually a slush fund for Democrats to launder money to pet political groups.
One of those on the receiving end of taxpayer money funneled through USAID is Internews Network, which got its hands on $472 million of funding to ostensibly produce content and “train” journalists.
But the true mission of Internews Network is censoring conservative voices online.
“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,” WikiLeaks reported.
Internews is led by CEO Jeanne Bourgault.
And the makeup of the board of directors makes it clear this is a Democrat Party front group.
“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,” WikiLeaks also reported.
Speaking at the World Economic Forum – the globalist confab in Davos where left-wing elites gather and concoct schemes such as forcing people to eat bugs in the name of combating climate change – Bourgault said one of her agency’s missions was financially strangling “disinformation” – i.e. conservative – websites by championing advertiser boycotts to cut off their ability to make money.
“Disinformation makes money. We need to follow that money. We need to work with the global advertising industry because a lot of those dollars go to pretty bad content, and so you can work really hard on exclusion lists or inclusion lists and really try to challenge the global advertising industry to focus their ad dollars towards the good news,” Bourgault stated.
Donald Trump didn’t just shut down USAID.
Trump turned off the number-one source of taxpayer money finding the censorship industrial complex.
