The concern is how much effect Trumps policies and actions, aka 'Executive Orders', will end up having on the Federal Government and our way of Life as we presently know it before the Dem's have any possibility of interfering and or correcting the damage this man is surely set on doing.

Yikes ~!~

USAID – Top Donor of Terrorist Organizations

To this degree, America has become one of the leading financiers of terrorist organizations. USAID had a budget that surpassed the budgets of the CIA and State Department. The organization was clearly an operation to fund left-wing NGOs.

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has gone unchecked and unaudited for decades. There is a reason that the establishment does not want DOGE to audit any public agency because the corruption is absolutely rampant. It has now been confirmed that USAID provided millions in grants to terrorist extremist groups.

USAID spent millions on the Islamic Relief Agency, another NGO affiliated with Gaza whose members include Ghazi Hamad, an outspoken Hamas terrorist who promised to repeat the events of October 7 “time and again until Israel is annihilated.” Islamic Relief, better known at the Muslim Brotherhood, had known ties to Osama Bin Laden who attempted to take responsibility for the worst terrorist attack on US soil.

The list of anti-American, anti-West terrorist organizations funded by US taxpayers is astonishing. At every turn, there is another recipient of grants who passed funds along to various NGOs all intended to support jihad. There is government oversight and then there is blatant corruption spanning across decades.

The American Near East Refugee Agency (ANERA), founded in 1968 after the Six-Day War, was one of USAID’s main recipients. The organization received a $12.5 million grant from USAID in 2024 alone.

The US government was well aware of ANERA’s involvement in terrorism. The Israel Law Center published a report in 2017 that found ANERA used USAID funds to support Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) kindergartens that actively indoctrinate children in hatred and killing of Israeli civilians, as well as other PIJ and Hamas organizations, thus enabling them to finance terrorist activity, which is forbidden by U.S. law.” Ten years earlier, the Washington Times reported that “USAID continues to fund multimillion-dollar programs through American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA), which is building a high-tech facility” for the IUG.

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has gone unchecked and unaudited for decades. There is a reason that the establishment does not want DOGE to audit any public agency because the corruption is absolutely rampant. It has now been confirmed that USAID provided millions in grants to terrorist extremist groups.

Western Islamism, a publication of the Middle East Forum (MEF), published a study entitled “Terror Finance at the State Department and USAID.” US taxpayers spent $164 MILLION on grants through USAID to Islamist groups, including $122 million designated to known terrorist organizations. The data in ‘Terror Finance’ paint a clear picture: USAID is complicit in financing jihad,” said Sam Westrop, director of Islamist Watch who is calling for “a public vetting process of U.S. government grants to exclude any organization with even the most indirect link to an extremist movement.”

To this degree, America has become one of the leading financiers of terrorist organizations. USAID had a budget that surpassed the budgets of the CIA and State Department. The organization was clearly an operation to fund left-wing NGOs.

Bayader Association for Environment and Development is one such NGO that poses as a charity for the people of Gaza, but it is led by the son of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. “Founded in 2007, shortly after Hamas’s takeover of the Gaza Strip, Bayader operates in close cooperation with the Hamas regime. Its 2021 annual report notes ‘coordination’ and ‘meetings’ with Hamas’s Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Works, Ministry of Social Affairs and Ministry of Agriculture,” the report found. USAID happened to provide the group with $900,000 days before the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023.



USAID spent millions on the Islamic Relief Agency, another NGO affiliated with Gaza whose members include Ghazi Hamad, an outspoken Hamas terrorist who promised to repeat the events of October 7 “time and again until Israel is annihilated.” Islamic Relief, better known at the Muslim Brotherhood, had known ties to Osama Bin Laden who attempted to take responsibility for the worst terrorist attack on US soil. USAID gave the Unlimited Friends Associated an untold sum despite one of their goals being to “cleanse” the land of “impure Jews.” The Qassam Brigades received between $7 and $30 million from USAID through the Mercy-USA NGO.

The American Near East Refugee Agency (ANERA), founded in 1968 after the Six-Day War, was one of USAID’s main recipients. The organization received a $12.5 million grant from USAID in 2024 alone. ANERA has only partnered with the Bayader Association and Hamas. They funded the Islamic University of Gaza (IUG), which was created by Hamas leader Sheikh Yassin.

The US government was well aware of ANERA’s involvement in terrorism. The Israel Law Center published a report in 2017 that found ANERA used USAID funds to support Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) kindergartens that actively indoctrinate children in hatred and killing of Israeli civilians, as well as other PIJ and Hamas organizations, thus enabling them to finance terrorist activity, which is forbidden by U.S. law.” Ten years earlier, the Washington Times reported that “USAID continues to fund multimillion-dollar programs through American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA), which is building a high-tech facility” for the IUG.



In fact, ANERA set up a proxy organization to reward “families of martyrs” in Gaza. The Unlimited Friends Association (UFA) openly hosts charity events to provide cash support to martyrs and prisoners of war. The UFA established the Orphan Sponsorship Program to help support the children of “martyrs” who died resisting “the ongoing slaughter against the Palestinian people.”

The list of anti-American, anti-West terrorist organizations funded by US taxpayers is astonishing. At every turn, there is another recipient of grants who passed funds along to various NGOs all intended to support jihad. There is government oversight and then there is blatant corruption spanning across decades. People behind the curtain actively approved of these payments to fund terrorist organizations. Will anyone be held responsible for this blatant treason? armstrongeconomics.com
