🚨 BREAKING: The Trump admin is moving to shut down USAID.
And the deep state is furious. 😠
Why? Because USAID isn’t really a "humanitarian aid agency" — it’s a covert intelligence arm funding coups, protests & regime change.
Here’s a 🧵 on its worst operations: 1/

Here’s a 🧵 on its worst operations: 1/
2/ 🇨🇺 Cuba - ZunZuneo (2009-2012)
USAID built a fake Cuban Twitter called ZunZuneo, designed to lure in young users and slowly feed them anti-government content to spark protests.
It was funded in secret through shell companies. The plan collapsed when exposed in 2014.

3/ 🇻🇪 Venezuela - Funding Regime Change (2000s-Present)
USAID funneled millions to opposition groups trying to overthrow Hugo Chávez & Nicolás Maduro.
It trained activists, bankrolled anti-government media, and was linked to the failed 2002 coup against Chávez.

4/ 🇺🇦 Ukraine - USAID’s Role in the 2014 Coup
Before Euromaidan, USAID & the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) poured money into opposition groups & media.
Leaked calls showed U.S. officials handpicking Ukraine’s post-coup leaders — this wasn't about "democracy."

5/ 🇧🇴 Bolivia - Expelled for Meddling (2000s-2013)
In 2013, Evo Morales kicked USAID out after catching them funding separatist movements in Bolivia’s richest provinces.
USAID was fueling a breakaway movement to weaken Morales — classic divide-and-rule tactics.

6/ 🇭🇹 Haiti - Destabilization Through Aid (1980s-Present)
USAID helped overthrow Haiti’s elected leader Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 1991 by backing opposition groups & death squads.
His life was only saved by the intervention of U.S., French and Venezuelan diplomats.

7/🇦🇫 Afghanistan - The Aid-Surveillance Complex (2001-2021)
USAID wasn’t just "helping" Afghanistan — it was a front for counterinsurgency operations.
Aid workers mapped communities, collected intelligence, and helped identify Taliban sympathizers for U.S. drone strikes.

8/ 🇨🇱 Chile - Setting the Stage for Pinochet (1973)
Before Pinochet’s CIA-backed coup, USAID pumped millions into media campaigns & opposition groups against Salvador Allende.
They created economic chaos to justify the coup — then backed a brutal dictatorship.

9/ As clearly illustrated, USAID pretends to be about "democracy" and “helping” the world.
But in reality, it was always a covert tool of U.S. power — a front for CIA-backed regime change, election meddling, and civil destabilization disguised as “humanitarian aid.”

10/ 🇺🇸 America First Foreign Policy
Marco Rubio recently in WSJ: "U.S. foreign policy has long focused on other regions while overlooking our own... That ends now."
Maybe taxpayer dollars will finally go to fixing America instead of funding foreign coups. Time will tell.
