Friday's Freaky Absurdities: CNN Goes All Testicular on Elon Musk as He and Trump Spay and Neuter USAID

Thursday evening, the Trump administration said it plans to cut the bloated USAID staff from 10,000 to fewer than 300 employees.

To most Americans, this is a clear example of how Trump’s team is WINNING bigly for America. After all, the reason those 290 or so employees are being retained in the move to relocate this money laundering operation to the State Department is that they were the only ones working on actual foreign aid programs that might save some lives around the world. The other 9700 were all working on laundering money.

But over at CNN, they couldn’t care less about WINNING for America. Most likely, we will soon find out that CNN has been raking in millions from the USAID money laundering operations.

So, for Anderson Cooper, this news was a chance to invite the Queen of all the money laundering during the Biden administration, Samantha Power, for an interview. Power is the same the despicable Deep State minion who also served as UN ambassador for Barack Obama His Own Self, and who was deeply involved in efforts to rig the 2016 elections.

In the interview, Power falsely claimed that all USAID efforts under her watch were targeted at spreading US influence in third world countries. That is absolute bullshit, as we already know. Hell, we found out yesterday that one USAID program funded fully 8% of the budget for the damn BBC in 2024.

What in the world does that have to do with spreading US influence in developing nations? The answer, of course, is not a damn thing - it was simply a very transparent bribe to the BBC to promote the globalist/Democrat agenda, which are one and the same, no different than the bribes USAID was directing to Politico, the New York Times and many other propaganda outlets in the U.S.

Samantha Power is also the USAID chief who steadfastly stonewalled all efforts by congress to obtain the documents detailing the agency’s activities for the last four years. Those are the same documents we’ve been treated to this week, showing the massive $50 billion annual web of money laundering taking place under her watch.

This woman belongs in prison, not on CNN in prime time. Oh, wait: Given CNN’s complicity in all this, maybe that’s exactly where she belongs now.

But the best, most spectacular thing that made its way onto the air at CNN last night was this oh, so serious discussion about a DOGE employee who goes by the name of “Big Balls.”

I kid you not. I swear I am not making this up. Take a look:

Transcript for those who love reading stuff like this:

Speaker 1: So this is a 19 year old high school graduate who has used the unfortunate nickname Big Balls online. So that would be one way that we could refer to him. He is now working at Musk's behest inside Doge, and we looked into his background and so we found, you know, several notable things, Erin. One of which is that this individual has founded multiple companies, including one with another unfortunate name, Tesla.Sexy LLC, which he established in 2021. He would have been around 16 years old. Now, this LLC controls dozens of web domains.

Speaker 2: So, Kara, you know, you hear this and you have known Elon Musk for years. So now you look at these young men who are now in data and in the private information about maybe hundreds of millions of American citizens as young as 19. The big balls here that Katie is talking about, and most of them are in their early 20s. There's an exception I'm gonna get to in a minute. I'm curious, though, Kara, how well does even Musk know these young men, do you think?

Speaker 3: I have no idea. I think there is no vetting whatsoever, as you can see, that's taken place. It took Katie and the really great team. Wyatt has done an astonishing job here. You know, I could make a joke. That's probably why he was hired for all this ridiculous nonsense and other nefarious things. But, you know, there's an expression in technology that's not. It's a feature, not a bug.

The first woman seriously sounds like she’s about to cry as she lays this story out for the host. That is just glorious.

Really and truly, doesn’t the chyron in this shot have to qualify as the greatest chyron in cable news history?

Of course, this story leads everyone at CNN and MSNBC to conclude this:

Yeah, Trump and Elon and Mr. Big Balls are the weird ones, all right.

No doubt, the Democrats and their media, um, handlers will pick this talking point to parrot ceaselessly today:

No word yet if Elon also employs a 23 year-old named Jack Mehoff, but it almost seems like a metaphysical certainty at this point, doesn’t it?

Ok, sorry about that: This just all takes me back to high school days at the Bronco Drive-in.

Let’s move on before I get myself in some real trouble here…

Another money laundering scheme uncovered Thursday comes in the form of something called the “National Democratic Institute,” and take a look at who knocks down big bucks while “serving” on its board of directors:

Tom Daschle, Donna Brazile, Michael McFaul, and freaking Randi Weingarten, the commie who heads the country’s biggest teacher’s union.

Here’s the full text of the Breitbart X post:

Some insane stuff to be found on @DataRepublican’s site:

The "National Democratic Institute"—with Tom Daschle, Stacey Abrams, Donna Brazile, Michael McFaul, & Randi Weingarten on its board—received $887k from fundraisers in 2022-2023 and received $167 MILLION in govt grants.

-$81.7 million of that went to employee compensation

-15 officers received compensation between $178k and $344k for a total of $2.8 million

-$4.1 million on office expenses

-$13.7 million on travel

-$4.2 million on conferences, conventions, & meetings

Its mission statement? "To work in partnership around the world to strengthen and safeguard democratic institutions, processes, norms, and values to secure a better quality of life for all."

[End]

Now, understand this: If that Board was filled with a bunch of Republicans - even media-favored RINOs like Mitt Romney - CNN and MSNBC would be foaming at the mouth and fomenting an armed insurrection over it. But because it’s a Democrat-centric grift, nothing but crickets.

If you need proof of the media’s rank hypocrisy on this matter, Mark Thiessen, writing in today’s Washington Post, reminds us of the complete lack of media outrage in 1995 over Al Gore’s attempt to shutter USAID as part of his failed “reinventing government” project:

Here’s an exerpt:

Democrats are in an uproar over President Donald Trump’s plan to abolish the U.S. Agency for International Development and move its functions into the State Department. At a rally in front of the shuttered agency, Rep. Ilhan Omar (Minnesota) declared that “this is what the beginning of dictatorship looks like,” while Rep. Jamie Raskin (Maryland) said Trump “is threatening lives all over the world.”

Please. Shuttering USAID is not some evil MAGA plot. In fact, it was first proposed by a Democrat — Secretary of State Warren Christopher — who tried to close the foreign aid agency during the Clinton administration.

In 1995, Christopher proposed a plan to eliminate three independent foreign policy agencies — USAID, the U.S. Information Agency (USIA), the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency (ACDA) — and merge them into a “super State Department.” In a 15-page single-spaced memo, his State Department declared “the current organizational structures and activities of the department and other foreign affairs agencies … are increasingly redundant, bloated and unresponsive to policy makers.” It even produced an organizational chart showing the three abolished agencies absorbed into a new “Consolidated Department of International Relations.” This would have restored President John F. Kennedy’s original vision for USAID, which he established in 1961 by executive order as “an agency in the Department of State” — but has since grown into an massive, entrenched bureaucratic behemoth.

Then, as now, the consolidation plan encountered fierce opposition from the foreign aid bureaucracy — USAID Director J. Brian Atwood told Christopher he would resign if his proposal went through — which managed to persuade Vice President Al Gore and his “reinventing government” team to torpedo the plan.

But not before my then-boss, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Jesse Helms (R-North Carolina), got involved. In a Feb. 14, 1995, Post op-ed headlined “Christopher Is Right,” Helms declared he would not allow the Clinton administration to shelve “the most thoughtful reorganization of U.S. foreign affairs institutions since World War II.” USAID, Helms wrote, had become “an entrenched bureaucracy” that was “not functioning as part of a coherent, coordinated approach, maximizing the benefit of every dollar spent” and adding, “It is my intent to support Secretary Christopher against the bureaucrats who feel threatened by his long-overdue reorganization of Foggy Bottom.”

[End]

Oh.

Again, this is just the tiny tip of an iceberg of unimaginable magnitude. And Trump, Elon, and Mr. Big Balls are just getting started.

WINNING.

That is all.
