Detail on USAID Slush

By Robert W. Malone MD, MS

A previous version of this story published on Substack here.

Although there have been howls of outrage throughout both Corporate (State-sponsored) Media [including the Tulsa World] and across DC Deep Staters and their surrogates, President Donald J. Trump, DOGE and Elon Musk appear to have kicked a key hornets nest. The buzzing is deafening, and it is clearly high time to get out a big can of whoop ass Wasp Spray. Former President Kennedy must be rolling in his grave. Maybe Elon Musk and RFK jr. can find common ground for coordinating to apply the necessary extermination.

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is (was) an independent agency of the United States government. Current indications are that it may be the first agency defunded by the new Trump administration, in part consequent to investigations by the DOGE initiative (Department of Government Efficiency). The agency defines (or defined) its mission as “We partner to end extreme poverty and promote resilient, democratic societies while advancing our security and prosperity.”

Applauding Gov. Stitt’s Call for DOGE

By Mike Mazzei

Editorial: I applaud Governor Stitt’s call to start an Oklahoma Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in Oklahoma. It’s time to root out unnecessary and sloppy spending programs that have infected our state budget like a nasty virus. We must take the opportunity to eliminate support for wasteful green energy projects and reduce government appropriations to non-core services.  

The groundwork for DOGE has already been laid, and we have the tools we need to finish the job.

DOJ Agreement with OKC Schools

By David Arnett

The Justice Department announced in a release today that a federal judge in Oklahoma City has approved an agreement with Oklahoma City Public Schools (OKCPS) to resolve allegations that OKCPS violated Air Force Reserve Staff Sergeant Michael J. McCullough’s rights under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA). The department’s lawsuit alleged that OKCPS violated USERRA when it failed to renew Mr. McCullough’s employment contract because of his military deployment and then failed to reinstate him on his return.

“When service members answer their nation’s call — leaving home and work to serve and protect us — federal law protects them against employment discrimination and unjust termination,” said Deputy Assistant Attorney General Kathleen Wolfe of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. “Veterans must be able to serve their country free from worry about jeopardizing civilian career opportunities.”

County Considering Transparency Office

By David Arnett

Tulsa County Commissioners are exploring expanding citizen access to public information like the state Legislative Office of Fiscal Transparency (LOFT). The Tulsa County effort proposed by current Commission Chairman Lonnie Sims (R-Dist.2) is named Office of Government Efficiency and Transparency (OGET) and would be tasked with alerting County Government and the public of national, state, and local changes that could potentially impact County services and maintain regular reporting on programs and services provided by Tulsa County.

USAID Waste and Abuse Runs Deep

By David Arnett

Secretary of State Marco Rubio unveiled plans to restructure and potentially abolish the U.S. Agency for International Development on Monday.

In a release late in the day, the White House documented why. For decades the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has been unaccountable to taxpayers while it has funneled massive sums of money to often ridiculous – and in many cases, malicious – pet projects of entrenched bureaucrats with next-to-no oversight.
