Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Michael Shellenberger: USAID and the CIA Funded Trump's First ImpeachmentThe House of Representatives impeached President Donald Trump on December 18, 2019, after a White House whistleblower went public with evidence that Trump abused his powers by withholding military aid to Ukraine in order to dig up dirt on his rival, Joe Biden. In the complaint, the whistleblower claimed to have heard from White House staff that Trump had, on a phone call, directed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to work with his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, to investigate Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. The whistleblower who triggered the impeachment was a CIA analyst who was first brought into the White House by the Obama administration. Reporting by Drop Site News last year revealed that the CIA analyst relied on reporting by a supposedly independent investigative news organization called the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP), which appears to have effectively operated as an arm of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), which President Trump has just shut down. The CIA whistleblower complaint cited a long report by OCCRP four times. The OCCRP report alleged that two Soviet-born Florida businessmen were "key hidden actors behind a plan" by Trump to investigate the Bidens. According to the story, those two businessmen connected Giuliani to two former Ukrainian prosecutors. The OCCRP story was crucial to the House Democrats' impeachment claim, which is that Trump dispatched Giuliani as part of a coordinated effort to pressure a foreign country to interfere in the 2020 presidential election, which is why the whistleblower cited it four times. In a 2024 documentary that German television broadcaster NDR made about OCCRP's dependence on the US government, a USAID official confirmed that USAID approves OCCRP's "annual work plan" and approves new hires of "key personnel." NDR initiated and carried out the investigation with French investigative news organization Mediapart, Italian new group Il Fatto Quotidiano, Reporters United in Greece, and Drop Site News in the United States. However, according to a Mediapart story published the same day as the Drop Site News article, NDR censored the broadcast "after US journalist Drew Sullivan, the co-founder and head of the OCCRP, placed pressure on the NDR management and made false accusations against the broadcaster's journalists involved in the project." On December 16, Drop Site's Ryan Grim posted a link on X to the 26-minute-long documentary. "NDR, Germany's public broadcaster, is facing a censorship scandal and has defended itself by saying it never killed a news report about OCCRP and its State Department funding -- b/c no report was ever produced to kill," said Grim. "That was absurd -- and dozens, maybe hundreds, of journalists knew it to be false, and now of course, someone has leaked it." The journalistic collaboration revealed that OCCRP's original funding came from the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs of the State Department, and quotes a USAID official who says, "Drew's just nervous about being linked with law enforcement," referring to Sullivan. "If people who are going to give you information think you're just a cop, maybe it's a problem." OCCRP does not operate like a normal investigative journalism organization in that its goals appear to include interfering in foreign political matters, including elections, aimed at regime change. Sullivan told NDR that his organization had "probably been responsible for five or six countries changing over from one government to another government... and getting prime ministers indicted or thrown out." As such, it appears that CIA, USAID, and OCCRP were all involved in the impeachment of President Trump in ways similar to the regime change operations that all three organizations engage in abroad. The difference is that it is highly illegal and even treasonous for CIA, USAID, and its contractors and intermediaries, known as "cut-outs," to interfere in US politics this way.But OCCRP's agreement with USAID says that USAID has the power to approve or veto OCCRP's hiring decsions. Shellenberger's "Public" substack is very much worth the $5 per month.

"A cooperative agreement has more strings attached," said Henning, "than a grant... Some of the strings that are attached in a cooperative agreement are approval of key personnel, approval of an annual work plan, approval of sub grants of a certain amount above a certain amount."
This is true to some extent. A grant has much less oversight than a program of record, which has copious reporting requirements. If I understand this correctly, USAID is arguing that they sent the money out with no accountability as to the final product. This may not be the flex they think it is.

That woman in the video is a total fraud. My own work for a USAID-supported outfit - carried out at a far more frugal $50 million - proved that carrier pigeons in Madagascar don't like Doritos, or generic equivalents, at all.

Note to Google: Forcing a separate screen that I have to click through in order to ask me if I want to "Simplify My Sign-In" by using a Passkey is not, as a point of fact, simplifying my sign-in. How about you Simplyify My Sign-In by allowing me to stop you from asking me if I want to Simplify My Sign-In? Is it too much to ask that you just STFU about Passkeys?

Everything that is coming to light, long suspected, about the Federal government leads to one conclusion: the Federal government has become the equivalent of enemy state the exists to enrich its insiders and grind its serfs into silent submission and to replace the newly defined untouchable portions. Just as this Marxist insurgency was on the cusp of achieving Obama's goal of "fundamentally transforming the United States of America" by winning the 2024 election President Trump derailed it all. It is imperative that the crucial EOs become law and that these corrupt Marxist aligned parts of the executive branch get fundamentally transformed or eliminated. Doing these will make it much more difficult for the Left to gather and weaponize the scattered pieces when they inevitably have political success no matter how transitory.

It might end up being the death of the modern Republican Party as well.
In the 90s there was a judicial investigation in Italy that led to the extinction of several parties, in particular the Christian Democrats and the Socialists. We may see the same thing here.

350 I think Ukraine is more complicated than just money laundering although that was certainly part of it
Posted by: JackStraw at February 06, 2025 03:15 PM (LkLld) _________________________________________ I have a bit of a theory on that. It is THE money laundering center for a vast network of entities world wide. From the US perspective, it's a way to influence leader decisions across the globe by allowing them participation. But, it also, ties into US politicians. It doesn't get publicized, but there are massive amount of commercial properties in the Mid-west US that were purchased by Ukrainian oligarchs. They're a place they put their black market funds so they can't be touched. These commercial offices just sit there. Towns in the midwest go bankrupt condemning and removing them. They do the same in NYC by purchasing Luxury residences and leaving them vacant. It's estimated that over 80% of own luxury apts in NYC are unoccupied. The conflict in Ukraine is an invitation for black market weapon sales. And a vast majority of US aid was weapons, yet, Zelenskyy keeps begging for more. Well, because they have been sold, and the funds have to be cleaned. Posted by: Orson at February 06, 2025 03:33 PM (dIske) 421

For the last few months I have been thinking the best move Trump can make is a Tax Holiday. Let everyone keep (up to) the first Million they made last year. No need to play around with the Fed. Just let people have their Taxes back while you rework the system to their benefit. Posted by: garrett at February 06, 2025 03:33 PM (9Q8fk) 424
Cut off USAID and you deprive them of funding.

The impeachment was a coup attempt.
