USAID, Weaponized Bureaucracy & The War on the American Voter 🧵
1/ @MikeBenzCyber exposes the truth: USAID—the agency supposedly dedicated to foreign aid & development—has pivoted to countering “extremism.”

@elonmusk responds: 💯

But who are they really targeting? Let’s break it down. 👇
@elonmusk @MikeBenzCyber 2/ When Did USAID Become a Political Weapon? 🎭

✅ Originally created to provide humanitarian aid.
✅ Now involved in “democracy building” (i.e., regime change).
✅ Expanding its mission to “counter extremism”—but who defines it?
🚨 Turns out, it’s YOU—the American voter.
3/ The New Definition of ‘Extremism’ ⚠️

🔹 Disagreeing with the official narrative = “Misinformation.”
🔹 Questioning government policy = “Threat to democracy.”
🔹 Supporting the wrong political movement = “Domestic extremist.”
🚀 They aren’t targeting criminals—they’re targeting independent thinkers.
4/ USAID, The Deep State & Regime Control 🏛️

📌 USAID has been caught funding foreign elections.
📌 It works alongside intelligence agencies for “strategic influence.”
📌 Now, its tactics are being turned inward—against the American public.
🔥 What was once used to destabilize foreign governments is now being used against you.
5/ How Do We Fix This? Decentralization & Transparency 🔗

Instead of letting unelected bureaucrats decide who is “extreme,” we need:

✔ Blockchain-based governance—preventing hidden influence.
✔ AI-powered transparency—tracking how funds are really spent.
✔ Decentralized media—breaking the government-controlled narrative.
✔ DAOs replacing bureaucratic agencies—public oversight of public policy.
🚀 No more weaponized institutions. No more secret agendas.
@elonmusk @MikeBenzCyber 6/ The Battle for Truth & Free Thought 🧠🔥

🚀 Dissent is not extremism.
🚀 Asking questions is not a crime.
🚀 Government agencies should serve the people—not control them.
The American voter is NOT the enemy—but they want you to believe you are.
7/ Final Thought: Will People Wake Up Before It’s Too Late?🚀 Government agencies have turned their playbook inward.
🚀 They are trying to redefine “democracy” to mean “total control.”
🚀 The solution is decentralization—before the window closes.🔥 Are we witnessing the death of free speech—or the birth of a new resistance? Drop your take below. 👇 #FreeSpeech #Transparency #Decentralization

💰 $33B Budget. $66B in Purchases. 12,000 Employees.
The question isn’t just where the money goes—it’s who controls the flow of systemic power.
This agency is more than numbers. It’s an unseen force shaping policy, procurement, and influence.

Let’s dissect the real impact. 🧵👇
2/ The Hidden Influence of Federal Procurement
🔹 $66B in purchasing isn’t just spending—it’s strategic allocation.
🔹 Who gets these contracts? Big Tech, defense firms, AI research labs.
🔹 Policy isn’t always made in Congress—it’s built through who gets funded.
Systemic power isn’t just elected. It’s embedded.
3/ The Budget-to-Control Pipeline
💡 Agencies with massive budgets don’t just execute—they redirect power.
📌 Big Tech Ties – Who benefits from these contracts?
📌 Foreign Influence – Where does this money actually flow?
📌 Opaque Oversight – How much scrutiny does this spending get?
Federal $$ = Influence. But who’s auditing the auditors?

@elonmusk 1/ 🚨 $33B vanished into the bureaucratic void?
A government agency with a $33 billion budget and $66 billion in procurement oversight just had key data deleted.
Let’s unpack the power, the money, and the implications of this quiet purge. 🧵👇
@elonmusk 2/ What We Know
🔹 12,000 federal workers manage $66B in spending
🔹 Budget size: Larger than NASA’s entire annual funding
🔹 Scope: Overseeing contracts that influence critical industries, including AI, defense, and cyberinfrastructure
Yet transparency is optional? 🚨
3/ Who Holds the Strings?
This agency operates in the shadows, yet controls:
✅ AI-related contracts (Gov AI governance is shaped here)
✅ Cyber & surveillance procurement (FISA, gov censorship?)
✅ Defense logistics (Private contractors influence policy)
Why would anyone want this erased?

Amazon + NVIDIA + DeepSeek-R1: The AI Game Just Changed

NVIDIA just rolled out DeepSeek-R1 (671B params) as a NIM microservice. This isn’t just a release—it’s a power move.

🔹 Amazon Bedrock + SageMaker
🔹 NVIDIA NIM (AI Microservices)
🔹 DeepSeek-R1: China’s 671B Open AI Titan

This alignment reshapes AI deployment entirely. What’s really happening? 🧵👇
1️⃣ NVIDIA’s Strategic Leap: AI as Infrastructure

NVIDIA isn’t just selling GPUs anymore—they’re orchestrating AI deployment.

NIM (NVIDIA Inference Microservices) lets companies deploy AI like APIs, without managing hardware.

DeepSeek-R1’s reasoning power now runs on NVIDIA’s optimized stack—direct integration into enterprise workflows.

⏩ No more waiting for OpenAI’s API. Deploy directly on NVIDIA-powered microservices.
2️⃣ Amazon’s AI Ecosystem Expands

Amazon integrating DeepSeek-R1 into Bedrock + SageMaker signaled a shift.

Now NVIDIA is reinforcing that move with scalable AI inference at the infrastructure level.

AWS + NVIDIA are forming an AI backbone that undercuts OpenAI/Microsoft’s exclusivity.

💡 AI isn’t locked to a single provider anymore—it’s an open battlefield.

@paoloardoino @nayibbukele @paoloardoino just dropped a bombshell:
"Today, a meeting that will change the course of history happened."

Let’s unpack what this could mean for Bitcoin, AI, and decentralized finance. 🧵👇
@paoloardoino @nayibbukele 2/ Why El Salvador? 🇸🇻

The first nation to embrace Bitcoin as legal tender—a proving ground for monetary sovereignty.
Now, it’s becoming a global hub for financial and technological independence.

What happens in San Salvador today could echo worldwide tomorrow. 🌍⚡
@paoloardoino @nayibbukele 3/ Who’s at the table? 🤝

@nayibbukele — The Bitcoin President

@paoloardoino — CEO of Tether & CTO of Bitfinex

Potential AI, crypto, and decentralized finance pioneers

The convergence of AI, Bitcoin, and DeFi is no longer a theory—it’s happening in real-time.
