On May 14, 2024, the USAID Office of Inspector General, Inspections and Evaluations Division, initiated an investigation of USAID’s oversight of USAID-provided Starlink satellite terminals given to the Government of Ukraine.
The objective was to determine how the government of Ukraine used them.
How about we just let the UK take over and spend its own $65 billion US on trans comics for Peru, condoms for Gaza, Sesame Street for Iraq, and convincing Vietnam to stop burning trash? Oh, and $60 million for the private internet magazine Politico. You guys do it!

Big tech ENABLES Trump. Those still on X/Twitter and Threads/Facebook, your voice is no longer being heard. Both platforms have bent the knee to Trump; close those accounts now. And for a real impact we MUST also BOYCOTT Amazon, Apple and Google because big tech is officially a global threat.

If your heavily subsidized satellite company was about to be called out for running a scheme to control communication and banking on earth, you might be pissed too!
USAid does great things. It wasn’t created with purely altruistic goals. This was a hearts and mind effort to ensure US political interest in these regions are seen as positive. Killing it is all about weakening US interest in these regions and endangers US expats and business interests. Scary stuff
