Despite the news of huge wasteful spending by USAID discovered now, Dubey still wants others to believe that Biden was only trying to help humanity.
A polite (not to be taken for granted next time) response from me:

If you are coming in with your own bias or half-baked partisan affiliations and see a poster offering *objective* opinions, you should evaluate your own quality rather than assuming someone else is "being clever".

Everyone has a bias, but the goal is to be objective. The two are different things.

As an Indian living for a very long time in USA, I only see things from a dharmic Indian/bharatiya point of view. As far as USA issues are concerned I have no partisan affiliation or leaning. If GOP or Dem is doing something good from my standpoint/ethos, I will support it. And vice versa. As an Indian I affiliate with the BJP and particularly Modi, and have been an active supporter from early adult days.

I do not imagine DEI as applying to illegal immigrants. :lol: I wrote a very honest and clear post about the situation in the USA - in terms of demographic pressure related to education and jobs. I said that American citizenry demographics is changing rapidly and there are huge disparities. I wasn't talking about illegals. USAID is for increasing global influence in collaboration with the DOS, CIA and other agencies.

Bhaidanwa is no "uplifter of downtrodden" - these are your words, not mine. I said very clearly that he saw the writing on the wall in relation to US demographics and where things are heading. Clearly, your unwise bias (or lack of understanding/depth vis-a-vis my post) is at fault.

There are a few US citizen posters (BUTTs) that have a great grievance with my posts - it's tragic yet amusing. One guy was thoroughly bi*chslapped by me in a renewable energy thread 10 years ago - and then blocked by me - and he is still traumatized. There is another poster who met the same fate more recently. Both still suffer trauma from their BRF "oppressor". They compulsively copy my posts when logged out, then log in to paste them in and then reply provocatively hoping to get my attention again :lol:

https://www.quora.com/What-makes-people ... hem-poorly

If you got misled by these guys (I don't see their posts unless someone else quotes them), that's somewhat amusing to me - though unfortunate since the only way I could help them was to block them. I can't speak for these troubled/confused individuals, nor can I speak for the others you mentioned ("Jay" and "Amber") who also appear to be Americans.

All these folks have every right to affiliate with a US political party of their choice. However, as I have written in detail earlier, bringing these alien American biases/partisanship into BRF without objectivity, trying to disrupt objective Indian analysis, and on top of that trying to target actual Indian posters, is unacceptable.

With all that information out there in the public domain on USAIDs, the agency and its 100% owner/sponsor (USGOV itself) could be legally responsible and liable for all the damages it has caused directly/indirectly of property, people, relations etc. in foreign countries where it has interfered. Just shutting down USAIDs may not be enough. US could be lucky because it has Trump in power and with his threats of tariffs/sanction it is unclear how many countries will raise this issue to hold someone accountable. Countries may have a legal right to demand information on USAIDs (and other agencies) to investigate on how and who benefitted from generous distribution of $$. Going just by the headlines, I'm surprised that it hasn't happened yet. Right now everyone has accepted the consolation prize that this agency is shutting down :!:

Something to be mindful of is that a lot of private sector employment is tied to US government spending.

Both the US and world economy can walk into a slowdown caused by a pull back in US government spending.

I also expect the US communications sector will get increasingly walled off from the rest of the world due to revelations about USAID. EM will be happy at that perhaps if people move off the Chinese and American shein factories since it will free up more ad $s for X.

You are correct. The speed with which these things are moving forward, assuming the other side is not successful in raising a mountain of legal hurdles, it is not a question "IF", but "WHEN" this take a massive toll on shrinking government spending, unemployment. Whether we see 1929, 1980s, early 1990s, 2008, or post-COVID economic downturn remains to be seen. 2025 will not be easy. And, after Trump is done fixing at home, he will turn his attention to $36,000,000,000,000 of debt held by people and foreigners.... It will have far reaching impact on IT sector, immigration, debt, currencies etc. Many possibilities and scenarios, but

What will be interesting is the upcoming battle between Judiciary and executive as several of the Executive Orders and purges start being blocked by Federal judges.

A major (supposed) reason for the Republican purge of the beurocracy is that they feel Govt agencies have overreached and lot of their tasks should be left to Congress and courts (legislative & judicial branches essentially )

However when the executive branch tries to to go scotched earth and bypass those 2 what level of judicial control is correct and what is "overreach" would be the main question.

While republicans control both Supreme Court and Congress it's a time consuming process trying to get things done the "proper " way and neither Musk or Trump seem to prefer that. At the same time both branches will fight for their survival as well, I don't expect a conservative supreme court to simply stand aside and let the administration run an outright battle against Judicial checks

The first 2 weeks of the Trump Presidency - What was promised, what was delivered & why : Yogi Chugh

BTW Yogi Chugh is a hard-wired Democrat (part of Democrat think tank).

youtube.com/watch?v=q5qA_QDfkew

In the first two weeks of Donald Trump’s presidency, several key promises were made — some fulfilled, others met with controversy. From executive orders on immigration to trade policies and healthcare reforms, how did Trump's initial actions align with his campaign commitments? What were the political and global reactions? This YT breaks it down with political analyst Yogi Chugh, discussing what was delivered, what faced roadblocks, and what it meant for the U.S. and the world. Where have all those 100s billions USD gone ?

Also take a look at this: Netanyaho calls the US EDU system as 'deranged woke culture' to Mark Levin (Republican) who is DJT supporter. Woke is born of America's democrats party. Majority of Americans are tired of the Shenanigans of woke with their lunacy on LGBTQ nonsense, sharing women's bathroom, sex-change procedures, teaching young children about ambiguous stuff on woman vs man gender and of course USAID to various nations for this agenda. Those supporting Palestinians in Gaza happen to be the academics who arm-twist their students to do the same.

I think this is where the moves on annexing Canada and Greenland are coming from. $1.8 trillion deficit last year - at least some of that can be covered by selling natural resources to other countries. Other part gets covered by DOGE cuts. But the cuts then don't need to go as deep.

The next on the chopping block are US Education department and US Defence Department. Both of these are into wasteful expenditure. The Education department is filled with Dumbocrats croonies and a huge axe is going to fall upon them.The US Defence MICs are way too expensive. Yogi Chugh highlighted some, e.g. a $ 1-2 part is costing $700 for the DoD, pricing for most items that are in use by US Military are at gold plated prices. Billions are wasted. The cuts will be done swiftly and MICs are going to yell and scream. The Ukraine war stoppage could yield 100s B in savings. No one knows how exactly the aid to Ukraine was spent, many believe it was looted by all and sundry including the Deep State. The Nato expense will also be stopped to a large degree, by asking the Eurotards to pay. One side note on the US MICs: they may have to outsource their manufacturing to India to reduce costs.

On the deficits: I believe if Trump can show a 50% cut on deficit that will be a good signal to the stock market that the deficits are going down and hopefully if the trend continues the 36T can be wiped out over 10+ years. DJT's big bang on pretty much everything is making the entrenched bandicoots to go on their offensive. The Judiciary is putting roadblocks at every turn. But common aadmi in US is loving it. They want reigning in of the Wasteful expenditure in the US. If DJT can find a 100 B here and there in every dept he could well reach the goal of no deficits at all. At the same time, his tariff regime and balance of trade to be net zero for the US is going to help the deficits hugely. If the repubs show strength in deficit cutting, reducing wasteful expenditure, good law and order they will be assured of next few terms in US Govt.

For India the tariffs on trade is going to be a difficult path to negotiate. India is net exporter to the US. India has to be prepared to enlarge the import basket from the US, could be oil, high ticket items for India's military. Also the US MICs wanting to move to India may help negotiate a more favorable deal with DJT. Quad and China will be in the equation. DJT does not care for BDs or Pakis or Afghanis or SriLankans. India MEA should adopt a more aggressive posture on these neighbors and strangulate the budding jihadi tendency and shut out China at the same time. Let us see how Modiji handles DJT during his visit to the US in the coming days.

I have no sympathy whatsoever for the activities that USAID has long pursued globally as a tool of US influence. Despite having some impact on health/disease prevention in other countries, it is very well known as a front for intelligence covert operations.

The speaker (former DOS) gives a good look into USAID, but falters (uh-ah-er-oh) at 1:34 onwards when asked how the fall of USAID will impact the US global position.

Indeed, without covert infiltration/control/dominance of the Eurasian landmass and the natural resources of Africa, how can a faraway north american country dominate the world for this long ? He gets very uncomfortable and can't admit it.

The most interesting aspect here is that the very tools that give the US an "unfair advantage/pole position" are being dismantled.

Some other tools of this nature include high-skilled immigration, dollar-based financial system, NATO/US overseas military bases....

I wrote a post on this earlier (regarding "deep state"). A couple of posters responded, I haven't replied yet since I am thinking about this.

If Congress government comes it will find a huge payment from the Modi government to Serum Institute of Technology. Then you can join the dance about how corrupt the Modi Sarkar is. But just like India gifted a lot of COVID vaccines abroad, the US gifted around 1 billion Pfizer covid vaccinations.

The point is not to defend USAID, but to say, legitimate complaints are being mixed in with grossly wrong propaganda.

US State Dept. Official Reveals - How Hasina Was Ousted: NED, Yunus & Clinton Exposed! World Affairs





Watch the excerpt from this podcast. The video is about 20:25 minutes long but you see Mike Benz in the first 3-4 or so minutes itself


The deep state vermin are tumbling out willy nilly, exposing the USAID funded entities and deep state's dark cupboards with numerous regime change plans neatly stacked inside.


The US is not, and has never been a friend to India, acting more like plantation owners driving and at times throwing crumbs to their slaves to keep them quiet. When their interests align, they smile and when they don't they frown, sending the Indian govt of the day into tizzies. Their interests have always out weighed our own. Effing foolish Indians have been socially drugged by the BS of "people to people" contacts and they have wilfully ignored the geopolitical shenanigans of the amrikis, the euros and the britshits who fed us the crap the the "people" are different from the "government". This is the very same crock of crap that the pakis have fed us continuously from even before 1947 when some paki jihadis in undivided India pitched the narrative that "partition was good for India because we were actually two separate and mutually incompatible nations that would prosper only on separation"


The paki ISI is now so very deeply entrenched in this region and that would not have happened with out the direct approval of the amrikis, and where the presence of the ISI scum and the paki army regulars are in play, the paki jihadis will soon set the narrative on the border with India.


India is now between a rock and a hard place because of the what the amrikis, along with the britshits have so callously done for tens of decades.


We have been focussing on the wrong things because our attentions have been diverted by deep state funded traitors masquerading as concerned citizens, public intellectuals, and "strategic" experts affiliated to some footpath shoeshine stand based gora dominated "think tanks"


the republicans have one set of asks that they want from India, while the republicans have a different set of asks that they need from us.


This is how we got/get fooled, just like we got taken by the mountbattens in 1947, who were fronting openly for the "empire", they found excited little patsies with engorged schoolboy fantasies who were so very eager to do their bidding.


The britshits left but they made damn sure that they left their insidious and evil "britshit raj" behind and the long term objectives of their empire(s) were being safely taken care by a dedicated bunch of subservient brown sahibs who are treacherously active even today.


At the core of it all, be it republican or democrat, are the same deep state forces that have had the unchanged objectives and have been pulling strings in the subcontinent to keep their always centred and in constant sync with their geopolitical requirements

bala saar,

lets not get taken for a ride. Rep or Dem, the deep state is the common denominator and the USAID is a swiss army type of toolkit with multifarious uses. Both Rep and Dem have used them and have lined their pockets by using the USAID ecosystem

The amrikis simply cannot afford to close it down. It is embarrassing for them that they got caught with their pants around their ankles

USAID will simply but surely rise again, albeit in a different avatar, subservient to the US govt via the over sight of the state dept. The amriki state needs just such a devious and "at arms length" machinery that confers upon it the panacea of plausible deniability and allows it to operate from the shadows on a global scale. Sadly for them, many countries have now become very vary of USAID and like minded organizations and that will lead to much greater scrutiny of their "charitable" nature and the potential to cause great harm, up to and including regime changes

every single western state, especially those with a colonial legacy have a version of the USAID in their kitties, entities that have caused havoc (including regime changes) in africa, the gulf and the ME.

This is merely a PR disaster, a storm in the proverbial teacup and not a major catastrophe

It might even be a devious plan to dump entities like soreass's (and other related) ecosystems which had begun to cannibalize and devour the amriki empire and move it to the far left, the hard left. The abrahamics ++ are ecstatic with the machinations of soreass's manipulative and geopolitical biosphere that fed into their own global agendas, as indeed is the high priest and also the grand mullahs of other ancient empires

The abrahamic ecosystem in India is devastated as are the dynaasties. Is it surprising that the USAID and khujliwal went down at around the same time

Someone seems to have over played their hand, upsetting the conservative "mom and apple pie" amriki WASP apple cart, and causing the blowback that uprooted the left dominated environs.

This is addressed to Indian Americans - if you don't stand up for yourselves, no one else will.
Elon Musk said on Friday that he plans to rehire the Department of Government Efficiency employee who resigned after racist comments he made online were revealed by The Wall Street Journal. The staff member, 25-year-old Marko Elez, posted messages such as “Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool,” “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,” and “Normalize Indian hate,” according to the Journal.

This is stunning.

Tucker Carlson - Biden Wanted to Kill Donald Trump

youtube.com/watch?v=tq8gPnRc5DU

Tucker Carlson explains why he believes the Biden administration wanted to kill Trump. The fact that both of the shooters of DJT had affiliations with Black Rock is quite concerning. The acting director of the Secret Service is a prime suspect. Rooftop surveillance was conveniently missing. No communication on that day from the Secret Service.The other part of the golf course incident, Trump changed his plans to play golf. The fact that this guy knew where he was going to be is very suspect! DOGE looking at treasury records would be easy to find out who authorized large payments to Thomas Crook’s foreign bank accounts. Obummer handlers are dangerous, murder intent folks.

What is needed is for Kash Patel to get nominated and assist in this Investigation from FBI.

Elon Musk said on Friday that he plans to rehire the Department of Government Efficiency employee who resigned after racist comments he made online were revealed by The Wall Street Journal. The staff member, 25-year-old Marko Elez, posted messages such as “Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool,” “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,” and “Normalize Indian hate,” according to the Journal.

Judiciary is approached only when enacted laws, regulations, and/or the constitution are alleged to be violated. The lawsuits filed all have to do with legal limits of power.

In USA, the congress (and not the president) has the ultimate power to finalize and approve the annual budget, and any decisions to pause/stop funding for the government - it's the law. Several judges have blocked Trump's action.

This type of illegal presidential action is not new. Nixon tried it in the 1970s, lost all the lawsuits, appealed to the supreme court and lost with a 0-9 verdict.

Then, to make things very clear, the congress passed a new "impoundment control" law that explicitly says if the president needs to stop/pause spending any part of federal funding, he must go back to congress to seek a vote.

Similarly, there are established laws and regulations on who gets access (and at what level) to sarkari assets such as the treasury payments system. Unless those first abrogated or altered by due process (which usually involves the congress), the access requirements must be strictly enforced.

Here in the interview, Putin clearly claims that 2020 US election was stolen from Trump. He further states that the Ukraine war in 2022 would never have happened if Trump were president of US. Putin was open to discussions with U.S. President Donald Trump on issues such as the Ukraine war and energy prices, and said it would be a good idea for the two of them to meet.

// i am sure that the Russkies have better intelligence on the US, otherwise how do explain 18 million voters for Bidenwa disappeared in the recent election. Somehow the world knows it was stolen but the US continued as if things were normal. Putin matter of fact said that it was stolen, which means he speaks with authority based on Russian intelligence of US. Many in the US had the sneaking feeling that the elections in 2020 were indeed stolen and Bidenwa and empty-headed Kamala did not win the election by legitimate means.

What do you suggest? We drop everything, march on the streets of DC, and also stop buying Teslas? Rally on Ivy League campuses a la the Palestinian supporters?

Just a stupid kid making shitposting. These kinds you will find all over the Gaming SM platforms like Discord etc. On X somebody made a comment that he might have posted those on X and then immediately went out to get a burrito with three of his Indian friends. These are Gen Z ers who are NEET or just say dumb things for the sake of saying them but do not believe in that stuff deep down in their hearts.

My feeling is that you want us all to vote for Democrats en block, i.e. another black community or CAIR/Mussalman or become elitist and say things like "most Americans, and every one of the white midwesterners and/or those in red states are racist dumbfu...".

Many of us have studied at public universities on a TA/RA/GRA which were funded by the property taxes these poor folks are paying. Had you been to a private university, then the funding agencies NIH/NSF/DARPA are funded by the American taxpayers.

Anyway you cut it, they made it possible for you to engage in your passion for free. All those so educated have to show the same gratitude they show to their IITs/NITs/Universities in India.

Tucker Carlson - Biden Wanted to Kill Donald Trump

youtube.com/watch?v=tq8gPnRc5DU

Tucker Carlson explains why he believes the Biden administration wanted to kill Trump. The fact that both of the shooters of DJT had affiliations with Black Rock is quite concerning. The acting director of the Secret Service is a prime suspect. Rooftop surveillance was conveniently missing. No communication on that day from the Secret Service.The other part of the golf course incident, Trump changed his plans to play golf. The fact that this guy knew where he was going to be is very suspect! DOGE looking at treasury records would be easy to find out who authorized large payments to Thomas Crook’s foreign bank accounts. Obummer handlers are dangerous, murder intent folks.

What is needed is for Kash Patel to get nominated and assist in this Investigation from FBI.

bala saar,

The same left-wing dark money foundations that supported the anti-Israel protests are funding a radical cabal, manipulating the administrative state on education, unions, transgender orthodoxy, elections, and the weaponization of law enforcement to silence their critics.

These cabals have already crossed the Lakshman Rekha many times before and in many lands too. The ltte terrorism in SL was clearly the work of such forces. The scandinavian scum who were abrahamic bigots and race supremacists were deeply complicit, as they were entrenched inside the fortress, allegedly involved in the so called "peacekeeping" and "mediation" efforts while what they were doing was spying and helping kill the Indian and lankan forces by passing information to the ltte and their offshore funders. We could see it even then but it was in a piecemeal and amorphous form, but the contours of the monster emerged when its final destruction was already well under way. The clowns in TN seek "eelam" even today and govern themselves as if already separated from the motherland.

These very same scandinavian scum have on numerous occasions tried their utmost to enter the scene in the NE, using the same game plan, the the so called "peacekeeping" and "mediation" narrative. The abrahamics with their padres, have also pushed for their inclusion but the GoI has held firm

Recall how many Hindu beedis in kangladesh have died since the regime change took place and how Hindus, their lives, families and livelihoods are specifically being targeted, as are their beliefs, culture, religious values and tenets

these jihadi hordes, very often funded by entities like the USAID, fraud foundation, rook that feller foundation, soreass and other well heeled but shady FFNGOs the world over, always target the women as a means of heaping humiliation, spreading fear and seeking revenge for imagined historical reasons.

why do these scum target the very people, countries and cities that welcomed them, and provided safety, shelter, food and financial sustenance, nurtured them in an environment of lawful order and without religious or racial bias or discrimination

or does transplantation to a different civilization and culture, under the guise of migration, morbidly result in the dawning awareness that they are a medieval culture, devoid of even the most basic of civilizational accomplishments, and completely lacking in matured social organization, customs and traditions, language, arts and literature, government, religion, and economic systems that reflect the present day times that they live in and the feelings of inferiority that such understanding may manifest in violence in cities where they migrate to and the wanton destruction of wide spread infrastructure that they could never have built for themselves in their own countries, the rage and anger that fails to assuage their hopeless feelings of inferiority

India, since ancient times, has often seen such mindless violence visited upon its peoples, the deranged destruction and the assault on its civilizational structures and cultural accomplishments. This was when the invading jihadi hordes killed, pillaged and raped their way through Hindu lands, leaving death and carnage in their wake and they took slaves back with them to be sold in the slave markets of khiva and bukhara and many other such cities

My favorite person Tulsi Gabbard (she swears on the Bhagavad Gita) was cleared by the senate today 52-46. All Republicans present voting in favor of Gabbard. Sens. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., and John Fetterman, D-Pa., did not vote. I hope she quickly stems the rot of the Intelligence Bureau and the targeting of individuals inimical to the Deep State dictates.

Awaiting confirmation are Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Trump's pick for health and human services secretary and Kash Patel head of FBI.

Added later: a good interview by Bret Baier of DJT on a wide ranging topics. Quite good worth a listen.

Somebody was saying right here in this thread that Tulsi would not be confirmed because Susan Collins would not vote to confirm her. I am glad that Sen. Collins changed her mind after the confirmation hearings.

Interesting that Fetterman abstained. He seems to be coming around the fact that Democrat leadership were tone deaf being elitist and ouit of touch with the average American. Democrats are the INC of India.

country by country ... first they destabilize judiciary

Buy them or Pressure them or Blackmail them

Then they take over media

Once judiciary is taken over, they push radical reforms of destroying family, marriage, and society. Then push LGBTQ, child ***** and Islamist rape culture. Then install LGBTQ or some weird guy with trans partner. That country is GONE to dogs for ever

It’s happening. President Trump is preparing to issue a FULL and UNCONDITIONAL pardon for Edward Snowden.

Thinking out a plan for debt reduction by the US:

Currently US has 36 T in debt. The first thing the Govt should do is bring down borrowings to zero, i.e live within their means, expense equals revenue. This will immediately cause a different perception about the US debt. No further debt increase.

For the actual debt, consider this: there are 22 million millionaires and around 756 billionnaires in the US. Roughly each of them needs to fork out 1.5 million to swat out the debt of 36 T. Give it 10 yrs times and it becomes 150,000 per year each, billionaires fork out 1.5 million per year each. Now what these people get in return could be a tax holiday for the amounts they gave after 10 yrs. In other words they pay forward tax now for a rebate later on. When the debt is swatted out, payments on interests for the debt is gone, so this could be a good deal for all concerned. Just a thought. Of course the govt can open a hundi to swat out the debt so anyone besides millionaires/billionaires can contribute.

Same can be applied for India's debt by the millionaires/billionaires of India. Being govt debt free is a good thing for the world.
