A reminder that while Elon Musk, DOGE, and Donald Trump screech about "corruption and fraud" in USAID, Judge Carl Nichols (appointed by Trump) said that the government didn't provide any evidence for their claim.

And, this.
Employees at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau received an email on Sunday saying the bureau’s headquarters would be closed for the coming week
Just like they didn’t provide any evidence that the 2020 election was stolen, or to use Trump’s spelling, STOLLEN. Trump doesn’t believe in actual proof, just tell the lie as often as it takes to be perceived as truth.
I wonder this all the time. They tell us there is corruption and fraud but we don't see the evidence. Plus Musk has coders in there so who knows what they are fabricating or doing with absolutely NO oversight and transparency. It is utterly ridiculous.
Why do they have to LIE about everything? Wouldn't it have been easier for them just to say "our supporters don't like us spending money for foreign aid" as justification for what they are doing? The lies are why it has become a mess for them.

Saturday, he told them to halt nearly all their work, including regulatory supervision of banks, etc.
