Judge shoots down lawsuits blocking Trump’s dismantling of USAID

A federal judge in Washington, D.C., has dismissed multiple lawsuits aiming to stop President Donald Trump’s move to tear down USAID.

The Trump administration is tearing down USAID, or the U.S. Agency for International Development, as a result of decades of corruption and financial waste of taxpayer dollars.

Furthermore, the Trump administration is moving all of USAID’s more valuable functions under the control of the State Department, putting an end to the unaccountable pseudo-independence that USAID has enjoyed since its inception.

Judge Carl Nichols of the US District Court for the District of Columbia dismissed one lawsuit brought by the American Federation of Government Employees, American Foreign Service Association, Personal Services Contractor Association, and Oxfam America.

Those organizations all represented workers affected by the layoffs resulting from USAID’s destruction. They argued that the move by the Trump administration was unconstitutional, but this argument was quickly shot down.

USAID Goes Down

USAID has been a source of corruption for decades, wasting American taxpayer dollars on leftist pet projects and funneling money to organizations that are closely connected to powerful politicians.

The organization that is supposed to provide humanitarian aid and help develop third-world countries has likely served as a vehicle to funnel taxpayer dollars to the rich and powerful, which explains the outrage from many rich and powerful Democrats when Trump decided to kill USAID.

However, the fight is far from over, as Judge Nichols’s decision doesn’t necessarily rule on the merits of the lawsuit but rather invalidates the filing status of the organizations that brought the lawsuit.

Judge Nichols found that three organizations lacked standing to challenge the many discrete actions involved in dismantling USAID.

The Trump administration’s actions are complex, and this operation isn’t as simple as simply declaring that USAID is no longer, especially considering the State Department is working to absorb parts of USAID.

While another organization could bring a lawsuit on the same merits, this dismissal will likely kill any chance of further litigation stopping USAID’s dismantling.

Huge Win For Trump

Tearing down USAID is a massive win for the Trump administration, as it destroys a key piece of Washington, D.C.’s corruption as well as a vehicle for the export of the leftist agenda.

USAID has spent billions on insane and corrupt ideas. In one instance, USAID under the Biden administration spent $15 million providing condoms for the Taliban. They also provided $14 million in cash vouchers for migrants at the southern border.

There are countless examples of USAID spending taxpayer dollars promoting LGBTQ initiatives in foreign countries to the tune of millions.

It was long past time for this corrupt organization to be shut down and investigated ,as there is a strong chance that significant sums of cash were distributed to NGO’s which then directed funds to the politicians who allowed all of this to happen in the first place.
