This Foreign Aid Agency Locked Its Doors To Keep DOGE Out. Now We Know Why

Congress appropriated the spending. If Trump’s mafia thugs try to come in and break the law, locking the doors is the right thing to do.
NOt if they were kicking back money to themselves. The democrats are scum and don't mind taking our tax dollares to enrich themselves and friends. HOw anyone can defend this is beyond belief.
 
???

Civil disobedience?

Stealing taxpayer money?

And YOU approve of it?

I'm not surprised.

The allegations of previous fraud need to be documented and I doubt that's the case.

If they rerouted Money to starving children then they are defying the law on principals of humanitarian and moral grounds.

If the story is correct, then I could condem it. I don't see any reason to believe the story at face value. My believe at the moment is that they did this in response to DOGe and the reality of starving people would be worth it.

So prove it to be true or that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
 
No one should be above the law.
What more should be said or one would be hypocritical by criticizing one and not the other?

Because Trump isn’t the topic of the thread. Your just upset it validates the very reason DOGE exists.

You say “democrats” but you’re clearly referring to republicans.
 
Money intended for Africans was secretly re-routed to D.C. bureaucrats and their friends by racist, abusive bosses, employees say

When the Department of Government Efficiency showed up at a small USAID-linked federal agency called the African Development Foundation in March, its management locked the doors and refused to let auditors in. Its board sued to stop DOGE, and was lauded by the Left for objecting to granting “access to USADF systems including financial records, payment and human resources systems.”

But the objection, several former employees told The Daily Wire, might not have been on principled grounds, but rather because those records amounted to a crime scene.

The African Development Foundation’s employees have been sounding the alarm for years about self-dealing, cruelty, and anti-white discrimination. Money sent to Africa was then wired to the personal bank accounts of bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. An official promoted his for-profit, multi-level marketing scheme to poor Africans. Law enforcement identified possible criminal kickbacks. And those who now lament DOGE’s shuttering of the agency did nothing to fix it when they had a chance.


It's crazy how much fraud & corruption happen constantly in our government. We need more DOGE and the Republicans in Congress need to enact the DOGE cuts, but they don't seem to care. Maybe the Moody's credit downgrade will push them to, but I doubt it.

4 part series.. rampant money laundering/fraud

the agency was led by CEO Travis Adkins, who arrived in 2021 after a short stint as a Biden appointee at USAID. An assistant to Adkins said after she asked why her paycheck was lower than agreed upon, Adkins informed her that the remainder would be coming from an overseas account.

He “sent me an email connecting me with this guy in Africa who asked for my banking information. Within a few days this guy wired me $17,000,” she told The Daily Wire on condition of anonymity. The Daily Wire reviewed bank paperwork showing the transfer from an account in Kenya.

Another longtime employee, she said, was eventually “put on the payroll of an African partner and was informed she was being paid through an entity in Mauritania. No payroll, state or federal taxes were withheld from her paychecks.”

“The contracts don’t make sense and they know [DOGE] will find lots of wrongdoing and illegal activity,” she said. “I’m not a fan of DOGE, but some of the things they’re doing need to be done. They have been operating like this for years and no one did anything about it.”
 
So you think your opinion is more important than the law. I don’t.
From what you are saying here, I don't think you give a **** about the law.

I'm sure it WOULD be documented if DOGE could take a look at the records.

How? You make it sound like it will be true because DOGE looks. Or maybe If DOGE looks, it will certainly be a crime. DOGE won't tell the truth, it's a Trump thing. You trust them? Not me. I need more than a newspaper article.

You don't make a lick of sense.

Ah...yes...this 👆 explains why you don't make sense.

Bye.

Daily wire 😂
 
Do you think Congress approves of the criminal activity and corruption? I don't know, maybe they do. Maybe Congress will be implicated.
What criminality and corruption? DOGE hasn’t found any.

How do you feel about having a convicted felon in the whitehouse?
 
???

Civil disobedience?

Stealing taxpayer money?

And YOU approve of it?

I'm not surprised.
What tax payer money was stolen?
 
1. MAGA don’t actually care about fraud, waste and abuse or they’d be losing their minds about this Administration

2. If there is a crime, bring charges and prove the case.
 
NOt if they were kicking back money to themselves. The democrats are scum and don't mind taking our tax dollares to enrich themselves and friends. HOw anyone can defend this is beyond belief.
😂😂😂😂😂


Let’s talk about Trump being gifted a ****ing multi hundred million dollar jet, shall we?

MAGAs are fine with that kickback 😂
 
OP is not to be taken seriously.

No credibility in the OP, the Article they posted, DOGE and all the Nazi Twitter spam OP wants to post after.
The OP is a conspiracy theorist - one cannot look at their post history and arrive at any other conclusion.

So, the Politico article below pretty much substantiates a similar struggle that has been going on throughout the govt of late-- these small 'independent' agencies are arguing they they are not subject to supervision by the elected political government.



 
Most likely being used as a front for Cia operations

Wouldn't they need a warrant? Or is DOGE above the law?
 
Because Trump isn’t the topic of the thread. Your just upset it validates the very reason DOGE exists.
How do you know it does? You have no way of knowing if any of it is true. You can't even access the information with a FOI request. Trump made it so the DOGE can operate in secrecy.

They're under the Presidential Records Act. Everything they do is in secret. No American has access to their records.
