'Deep State’ used USAID to OUST Bolsonaro from Brazil…'
<https://revolver.news/2025/02/turns-out-the-deep-state-used-usaid-to-oust-bolsonaro-from-brazil/>
'Right now, there’s a nationwide debate raging over a group you may have
never even heard of—USAID.
So, what exactly is USAID? Well, if you look on Wikipedia, you’ll see
this fairytale definition:
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is an
independent agency of the United States government that is primarily
responsible for administering civilian foreign aid and development
assistance. With a budget of over $50 billion,[4] USAID is one of the
largest official aid agencies in the world and accounts for more than
half of all U.S. foreign assistance – the highest in the world in
absolute dollar terms. USAID has missions in over 100 countries,
primarily in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and Eastern
Europe.
But as you’ve probably guessed by now, there’s a lot more to this story.
First off. plenty of politicians love USAID—especially crooked snakes
like Ilhan Omar, whose third-world hellhole of a homeland raked in $2.3
billion of our tax dollars.
In addition, USAID is operating with basically zero accountability and a
mind-blowing $50 billion budget—which is absolutely insane, as Secretary
of State Marco Rubio recently pointed out.
And it’s very clear where Elon Musk stands on this criminal
organization.
It’s time to shut down this bloated government slush fund, which is
clearly being used for nefarious reasons—and that’s exactly what the
Trump administration plans to do and Dems are in an uproar.
But as Senator John Kennedy likes to say— “Get over it.” There’s plenty
more pain on the way…
Let’s face it, right now, we’re nearly $37 TRILLION in debt, yet
somehow, we’re still throwing taxpayer dollars around like Monopoly
money, and meddling in other countries’ affairs. It’s absolute insanity.
This nonstop funneling of cash into foreign nations and CIA-backed spy
games has to end.
And speaking of CIA games—wait until you hear what your hard-earned tax
dollars were wasted on through USAID… killing populism and turning
Brazil back into a Marxist, progressive hellhole, courtesy of the US
government.
Catch Up:
Mike Benz on how USAID spent tens of millions of dollars of US taxpayer
funds to remove Jair Bolsonaro from power and end free speech in Brazil:
“When populist waves swept the world within the U. S. in 2016 with Trump
and with what happened all over Europe with Marine Le Pen and Matteo
Salvini and Nigel Farage, USAID declared censorship holy war against
every single populist group, including Bolsonaro. Steve, I’m telling you
right now, if USAID did not exist, Bolsonaro would still be the
president of Brazil and Brazil would still have a free and open
internet.
It was USAID that spent tens of millions of dollars of American taxpayer
money funding the push to get anti misinformation bills passed in the
parliament there. Funding the legal advocates who pushed the censorship
court there, the TSE, to crack down on Bolsonaro. tweets and WhatsApp
and Telegram messages.
They built a censorship octopus in Brazil and it was built entirely on
USAID because USAID declared Bolsonaro a populist, Trump of the tropics,
and then set up this operation to control the information ecosystem
there. One of the USAID grantees even said on a public call that the
purpose was to eliminate the, uh, the international exchange of ideas
between the Trump movement and the Bolsonaro movement.
That’s what USAID does. They kill domestic populism because it gets in
the way of their foreign policy goals.”
Think about it: USAID ousting Bolsonaro and ensuring a Lula victory gave
China the boost they needed in the region, and did absolutely nothing
for the United States – all it did was advance the toxic left-wing
agenda.
You can watch the entire bombshell interview below:
And Mike’s observations are backed up completely by this left-leaning
article from last year, which lays out the Biden regime’s all-out coup
d’état agenda to take down Bolsonaro.
Foreign Policy:
[…] the Biden administration mounted a sustained pressure campaign aimed
at Brazil’s military, which began as early as 2021. The effort, as first
reported in Folha de São Paulo and also covered by Foreign Policy,
involved explicit public warnings by U.S. senators about not respecting
election results as well as continuous back-channel conversations to
make clear that a democratic rupture would leave Brazil isolated on the
international stage—and lead to a downgrade of U.S.-Brazil security
cooperation, which is highly valued by Brazil’s military establishment.
The campaign involved the U.S. White House, State Department, CIA,
Senate, and—notably—the Pentagon. In retrospect, including that last
agency may have been the Biden administration’s most decisive move. U.S.
Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin was employed as Biden’s chief public
emissary to Brazil’s generals. It was a natural choice given the tense
relationship between Biden and Bolsonaro, the latter of whom followed
Trump’s lead in parroting falsehoods about supposed fraud during the
2020 U.S. presidential election. Austin was also a more credible
interlocutor since Brazil’s military was the intended target of the U.S.
campaign.
The sheer number of U.S. actors involved in the campaign meant that, for
much of 2022, many Brazilian government officials visiting Washington
received an unambiguous message from the U.S. government about the need
for Brazil’s military officers to respect the electoral process. Shortly
before Brazil’s election, the U.S. Senate passed a resolution calling on
Brazil to ensure the vote is “conducted in a free, fair, credible,
transparent, and peaceful manner.” In order to minimize the risk of a
coup, Biden, along with numerous Western allies, publicly congratulated
Lula for his victory in the hours after the official results were made
public.
Honestly, the Bolsonaro scheme alone is reason enough to shut down USAID
for good—but there are plenty more reasons on the table. The reality is
this: USAID looks like nothing more than a slush fund for the
intelligence community—a taxpayer-funded cookie jar used to spread
left-wing, globalist influence and propaganda around the world. It’s
time to kill this program and launch a full-blown investigation
