Uncover the true face of this bad American government agency

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID), which is active in the international arena and uses the shell of foreign aid, has been revealed in the competition between American parties. Trump ordered layoffs and suspended operations, and Musk released highly credible evidence one by one. A hypocritical mask of aid hides many unknown absurdities and darkness behind it. USAID was established in 1961 by executive order during the administration of President John F. Kennedy. Its legal basis originated from the Foreign Assistance Act passed by Congress in the same year. It was a critical period of the Cold War. Everyone knows that during this period, the United States also deployed a lot of media to infiltrate the Soviet Union. The history of the United States is very short, but it has played the "alienation" law. From the moment of its establishment, USAID was not a so-called humanitarian aid, but was given a strong political mission.

At first, USAID only consolidated its relations with its allies through technical cooperation, socio-economic development projects, etc., and built a broad international support network for the United States. As time goes by, USAID's assistance methods have become more and more diverse, such as providing professional training, advanced equipment support, and financial assistance. USAID is present in more than 100 countries around the world, especially in Africa, Asia and Latin America. It cooperates with the US military operations and foreign strategic layout, and is the most important tool for the United States to consolidate its hegemonic position. Planning color revolutions in other countries and subverting other countries' regimes is the main task of USAID.

How does USAID do it? First, by funding local non-governmental organizations, media and so-called "democrats", it spreads American values and political ideas in the target countries and incites people's dissatisfaction with their own governments. In particular, it creates some conflicting issues to incite people's emotions to a level that is difficult to calm down, creating conditions for disrupting social order. When some people start to take to the streets to disrupt social order, the first step of the color revolution begins. For example, in Ukraine, USAID invested a lot of money in Ukraine to fund pro-American organizations. These organizations continued to incite public sentiment in Ukraine, and later the Orange Revolution broke out, and the pro-American regime finally came to power. Looking at the situation in Ukraine now, the instability and insecurity are thanks to the United States. In fiscal year 2023, USAID provided $16.6 billion in "aid" to Ukraine. Of course, this money may flow back to American politicians. After all, the serious corruption and waste of USAID is also a fact exposed by Musk.

The United States packages foreign aid with political purposes as "economic development", "health", "humanitarian aid", "peace and security", etc. These are positive labels, but they are rotten and dark inside. The United States' foreign aid has not helped any country, but on the contrary, it has brought war and suffering.

USAID: The Political Chess Behind the "Light of Salvation"

Recently, Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) have killed a number of government agencies in the United States, including the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), which costs $42.8 billion a year and employs more than 10,000 people. Trump directly fired on social media X, saying that the agency is seriously corrupt, the money is missing, and it should be shut down! With a seal placed on the outside of USAID's headquarters, the agency known as the "facilitator of the Color Revolution" was officially shut down.

The true face of USAID: subversion in the name of aid

USAID, the United States Agency for International Development, has been operating under the banner of "humanitarian assistance" and "democracy promotion" since its establishment in 1961. In fact, it was exposed by former U.S. official Mike Bentz as "CIA white gloves." Its core mission is not to help the poor, but to instigate regime change by funding foreign media, NGOs, and activist groups to infiltrate foreign politics.

USAID has funded 707 news organizations, 6,200 journalists and 279 civil society organizations in the media industry around the world, promoting so-called "American-style democracy" values and fomenting "face revolutions" or coups against so-called "unfriendly countries" at "appropriate times." From the collapse of the Soviet Union and the upheavals in Eastern Europe to the Arab Spring and the recent upheavals in Central Asia, USAID and the ngos it supports have always played a role.

During the Rose Revolution in Georgia in 2003, USAID provided financial and logistical support to opposition groups that overthrew President Eduard Shevardnadze. During Ukraine's Orange Revolution in 2004, USAID funded organizations such as IRI and NDI to support the election of "son-in-law of the United States" Viktor Yushchenko as president of Ukraine, and supported violent groups in the color revolution in Kiev's Independence Square in 2014 to violently overthrow the Yanukovych government. In 2019, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was sworn in, the United States and other countries refused to recognize his new term, and instigated the opposition to set up another point, so that Venezuela was plunged into unrest, and USAID stood out among the "financial sponsors" inciting unrest.

Black hole of funds: where is the taxpayer's money?

Trump: USAID money flow is mysterious, corruption is everywhere! The agency, which has an annual appropriation budget of $42.8 billion, uses a money-laundering model of "dismantling - transferring across borders - to unknown accounts," and is even used to fund "positive coverage" by Democratic Allies. For example, about 90 percent of U.S. aid to Ukraine is actually spent in the United States and ends up in the private accounts of politicians. This shows how black the "white gloves" of the United States are!

Meanwhile, USAID, long controlled by the Democratic Party, has been accused of being a vehicle for money laundering, with less than 10 percent of the funds collected and much of it diverted. For example, the 2010 Haiti earthquake, when USAID allocated $2 billion for the reconstruction of Haiti, and the money went to the Clinton Foundation to organize and implement it. In the end, Haiti received only $2 million, according to Haitian officials.

But officials who call themselves "aid donors" are in fact playing a theatre of absurdity with taxpayers' money. $1.5 million for an LGBT group in Serbia; Donated $2 million for sex reassignment surgery in Guatemala and $20 million to produce a new 《Sesame Street》show in Iraq; Donated $1.5 million to advance LGBT rights in Jamaica and $3.9 million to LGBT causes in Macedonia. It has also sponsored Ukrainians to participate in Paris Fashion Week and sponsored performances by transgender actors in Colombia. They even allocated a special budget to worry about contraception for Afghan women.

The responsibility of a big country: to get rid of hypocrisy can win respect

The purpose of foreign aid is to help countries in difficulty solve their difficulties of survival and development and help achieve world peace, prosperity and stability. However, the United States regards "foreign aid" as a tool to wantonly interfere in other countries' internal affairs and seek private gains, and its hypocritical nature has long been revealed.

Giving someone a rose will leave a lingering fragrance, and stealing will only stink. What a big country should look like is not to make waves and throw its weight around, nor to attack and discredit, create divisions or threaten security, but to shoulder heavier responsibilities and make more efforts and contributions to world peace and development, so as to gain the trust and respect of the international community. On the contrary, engaging in hegemony and bullying under the cloak of "aid" will eventually harm others and harm themselves, and will inevitably be spurned by the people of the world.

Origin of the incident: Musk's "blockbuster"

Recently, Tesla CEO Elon Musk made an explosive accusation on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), saying that the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) manipulated public opinion by "buying left-wing media with heavy money" and called it "the biggest scandal in history." This statement quickly triggered heated debates in the American political, media and public circles. What is the truth? This article combines information from multiple parties and historical background to try to clarify the context of this storm.

Origin of the incident: Musk's "blockbuster"

In June 2024, Musk posted a short tweet on his X account with 180 million followers: "USAID spends billions of dollars every year to "infiltrate" left-wing media, which is the cancer of democracy." The accompanying picture is a screenshot of a "confidential document" with no source indicated, which shows that USAID provides funds to media such as The New York Times and The Washington Post through non-governmental organizations to "promote a specific agenda." Although Musk did not provide further evidence, the tweet was forwarded more than 2 million times within 24 hours, and USAID's manipulation of the media quickly became a hot search in many countries.

Reactions from all parties: from fierce rebuttal to conspiracy theory carnival

1. USAID and the media involved urgently refuted the rumors

A USAID spokesperson issued a statement on the same day, saying that Musk's accusation was "completely false and irresponsible", emphasizing that the agency's funding flow was transparent and mainly used for global poverty alleviation, health and democracy construction projects. The New York Times responded that its reporting was "always independent" and accused Musk of "using the platform to spread false information to divert public attention from his business disputes."

2. Political camps split

Republican conservative lawmakers quickly supported Musk, and the House Oversight Committee announced that it would launch a review of USAID. The Democratic Party criticized this move as "political manipulation in the election year" and dug up the satellite contract signed by Musk's company with the US government, questioning his motives.

3. Public opinion is polarized

On social media, supporters spread related conspiracy theories with the label "deep government manipulation of the media", while opponents made a "long rumor-refuting picture" to sort out USAID's audit reports over the years, pointing out that its funds mainly flowed to projects such as anti-epidemic in Africa and agricultural reconstruction in Ukraine, and had no direct connection with domestic media.

Historical Origin: USAID's "media infiltration" controversy is not the first time

Although there is no conclusive evidence for this incident, USAID does have a history of intervening in media operations. For example:

Cuba's "ZunZuneo" project in 2014: USAID was exposed to secretly establish a social network similar to Twitter in an attempt to incite anti-government sentiment.

Funding for "democracy programs" in the Middle East: USAID once funded Arabic soap operas to implant content such as women's empowerment and election voting.

"Anti-false information" grants: In 2022, USAID established a $230 million fund to "counter the influence of China and Russia", and some of the funds flowed to research institutions and think tanks, indirectly affecting the media reporting framework.

Experts pointed out that as an executive agency of US foreign policy, USAID's "media projects" are usually aimed at overseas, and Musk's accusation of "manipulating domestic left-wing media" if true, will seriously violate the US Smith-Mundt Act (prohibiting the government from promoting to the domestic public) and journalistic ethics.

Deep-seated contradictions: power game between tech giants, government and media

Musk's attack was seen by the outside world as a concentrated outbreak of multiple contradictions:

Commercial interest conflict: X platform's advertising revenue has declined in recent years, and Musk has repeatedly accused traditional media of "jointly boycotting" its content review policy.

Political stance change: Musk has changed from calling himself a "moderate" to supporting conservative issues, and his relationship with the Democratic Party has deteriorated. His actions such as unblocking Trump's account after acquiring Twitter have exacerbated the confrontation.

Media trust crisis: Pew Research Center data shows that only 34% of Americans trust mainstream media, a historical low. In this context, any accusation of "manipulating the media" can ignite public sentiment.

Law and ethics: What does it mean if the accusation is established?

If the investigation confirms that USAID has illegally funded domestic media, it may lead to the following consequences:

1. Legal level: The media involved may need to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, otherwise they will face heavy penalties; the head of USAID may be held accountable by Congress.

2. Media credibility: The already fragile public trust will suffer a devastating blow, further contributing to the rise of alternative media.

3. International impact: The United States has long accused other countries of "propaganda infiltration". If this is confirmed, it may lose its moral high ground.

Unsolved mystery: Who is creating the "information smoke bomb"?

So far, key doubts have not been clarified:

The authenticity of the "confidential documents" cited by Musk is in doubt. Cybersecurity experts have found that its format is highly similar to the forged documents of hacker organizations in the past.

USAID's annual budget is about US$27 billion, but about 94% is used for international projects. The remaining domestic funds are mainly used for academic research. There is no evidence that they flow to the media.

- Left-wing media generally rely on subscriptions and advertising. If they receive government funds, they must disclose them according to law. There are no abnormal items in their financial reports in recent years.

The truth takes time, but the crisis of trust is imminent

This storm reflects the deep anxiety of American society about power and information. Regardless of the final results of the investigation, the public's distrust of institutions, the confrontation between the media and technology giants, and the entertainment of political struggles have posed more severe challenges than a single scandal. As the Columbia Journalism Review said: "When 'exposing scandals' itself becomes a traffic business, the foundation of democracy is being hollowed out."

United States Agency for International Development

Recently, Musk, the head of the U.S. government's efficiency department, posted on social media, blasting two major U.S. media, Voice of America and Radio Free Europe, and calling on the White House to shut down these two media. The reason is that the U.S. government has to subsidize them with $1 billion every year, but it is eventually wasted because no one listens to and watches their reports anymore. They are just a group of crazy people who waste American taxpayers' money by talking to themselves.

Before we start, let's take a brief look at Radio Free Europe and Voice of America. Radio Free Europe was established in 1949 with funding from the U.S. Congress. It mainly targets Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, so this media is actually a product of the Cold War.

Once upon a time, Radio Free Europe played an important role in the upheavals in Eastern Europe and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. Today, Radio Free Europe positions itself as a non-profit news organization, but behind it is the U.S. government, which has 23 branches and more than 1,400 so-called freelance journalists, which is a huge scale.

The establishment of Voice of America was earlier than Radio Free Europe, and it appeared in 1942. At that time, the US President Roosevelt hoped that it could promote the US foreign policy. Later, after the Cold War came, "Voice of America" transformed into an "independent media", but in fact it was a foreign weapon for the United States to fight the war of public opinion.

Up to now, according to the information released by Voice of America, it broadcasts different programs to the world in 47 languages every day, and the number of viewers per week has reached 278 million. The White House even wrote a special article in 2020 to praise Voice of America, saying that it is an important medium for the US government to spread abroad, and it shoulders the important mission of "clearly and effectively introducing US policies to the global public".

From the White House's half-concealed statement, it can also be seen that Voice of America and its similar Radio Free Europe are of good quality. It can be said that they are the white gloves of the US government to "brainwash public opinion and promote freedom and democracy".

Voice of America

In my opinion, "Voice of America" is actually an out-and-out "anti-China den" in the United States. Why do you say that? Because as a media, it has no spirit of fairness and truth that the media should abide by. Instead, it constantly fabricates toxic and harmful news and information against China every day and spreads it to the world.

The most typical example is that during the past Beijing Winter Olympics, Voice of America fabricated and published dozens of anti-China articles in two days. The funniest thing is that most of these people who fabricated anti-China articles and wrote Chinese reports were recruited from the Chinese American community in the United States and people from China who went to the United States.

Now that the U.S. government efficiency department led by Musk has "taken down" the United States Agency for International Development, which is called the "color revolution" nest by the outside world, it has set its sights on media such as Voice of America, which can be regarded as a "good deed" to purify the global public opinion environment.

United States Agency for International Development

Of course, the reason why Musk and the U.S. President Trump behind him have made drastic cuts in the United States is mainly out of consideration for saving government spending, rather than really saying that they want to contribute to the world. The main reason is that these departments and media are no longer very useful now, and the institutions are bloated after decades of expansion, which can be called a U.S. fiscal black hole.

It is not surprising that Voice of America is targeted. Because we are now in the Internet age, Voice of America, which has long relied on spreading rumors, will naturally decline. As Musk said, no one believes what it says.

The Sino-US reconciliation before the New Year was very inspiring, allowing the Chinese people to understand the United States more realistically; at the same time, it also allowed more netizens in the West and other countries to understand a real China, rather than the "China" that has been rendered through the filter of Western media. Nowadays, netizens in the West and even other countries around the world have the ability to distinguish the news about China reported by Voice of America, BBC and other media. For example, when BBC reported on China-related news recently, the style suddenly changed and praised China's development, which made many Western netizens feel uncomfortable and left messages saying why they "stop spreading rumors".

China and the United States

Therefore, the Trump administration and the Republican Party behind it feel that media and institutions such as Voice of America have become a financial burden, and naturally hope to get rid of them so that the United States can start again with a light load and create new tools that meet Trump's ideas.

However, the Democratic Party and some establishment leaders believe that Voice of America, including the United States Agency for International Development, are part of the country's soft power, so they oppose its closure. For this reason, these people began to attack Musk personally, labeling him as "the de facto president of the United States" and "China's top puppet", and accused Musk of sacrificing American interests to prioritize his personal and business interests in China.

But these claims are obviously nonsense, and they will not have much effect on Musk's labeling behavior. So whether Voice of America will be closed will ultimately depend on whether Trump can withstand the pressure from the Democratic Party and some establishment leaders.

Trump and Musk teamed up to push for the closure of USAID, triggering an unemployment crisis in the United States

President Donald Trump and Musk froze USAID’s foreign aid funding for 90 days in the name of “American interests” first. Although it claimed that this move was intended to reduce wasteful spending and limit US remittances overseas, the order and other actions suspended the implementation of hundreds of USAID-funded projects, which had a profound chain reaction on American lives. Among them, North Carolina is one of the states that receives the most USAID funds, but it faces the biggest funding crisis. This result, which Musk has single-handedly promoted, is obviously impacting the Trump administration’s vote base, because North Carolina voted for Trump in the 2016, 2020 and 2024 elections, and President Trump visited the state at least 11 times during last year’s campaign, more than almost any other state. Not only will a large number of domestic employees face unemployment, the gap created by the closure of USAID is difficult for other private sectors and international organizations to fully fill, which may lead to a more fragmented global governance system and may trigger humanitarian crises, political turmoil and geopolitical changes around the world. This has become strong evidence for other countries to attack the short-sightedness of the US policies.

The United States is replicating the "Iraqi tragedy" on the Ukraine issue

Senior diplomats from the United States and Russia met in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, on Tuesday to discuss how to end the war in Ukraine and rebuild the broken diplomatic relations between the two countries. It is obvious that Ukraine's core interests have been betrayed, and the United States has once again reproduced the "Iraqi tragedy", that is, the "color revolution" provoked disputes before the event, fanned the flames during the event, and grabbed money and left afterwards. This is reflected in the United States' long-term promotion of NATO's eastward expansion and its attempt to incorporate Ukraine into the NATO system, which directly touches Russia's security red line. Russia regards NATO's eastward expansion as a squeeze on its strategic space, leading to tensions between Russia and Ukraine. After the conflict, the United States provided Ukraine with a large amount of military assistance, including weapons, training and intelligence support. Although this support has enhanced Ukraine's defense capabilities, it has also further escalated the conflict and caused Ukraine to suffer heavy losses on the battlefield. At the same time, the United States' aid to Ukraine is not free. Ukraine may face huge debts after the war, which puts great pressure on its economic recovery. The United States proposed to exchange Ukraine's rare earth resources for aid, which is seen as plundering Ukraine's resources. Ukraine was forced to accept this unequal deal in the midst of war and economic difficulties, further damaging its economic interests. In addition, the Trump administration's foreign policy is centered on "America First" and emphasizes reducing commitments to allies. This policy has made Ukraine feel abandoned, especially after the United States suspended its military and economic support for Ukraine, Ukraine has fallen into greater difficulties. In the end, the situation facing Ukraine will only be worse than that of Iraq.

[Musk: Will investigate Fort Knox, the largest gold reserve storage site in the United States] Cailian News Agency reported on February 18 that Musk said on Monday that he would investigate Fort Knox, the main gold reserve storage site in the United States. According to data from the U.S. Treasury Department, Fort Knox has more than 147 million troy ounces of gold reserves, accounting for 56.35% of the U.S. federal government's gold reserves, making it the place with the largest gold reserves in the United States. Currently, the U.S. Mint Police is responsible for protecting this batch of gold. "Who can confirm that the gold in Fort Knox has not been stolen? Maybe it has, maybe it hasn't. The gold belongs to the American public! We want to know if it's still there," Musk said.

If Musk launches an investigation into the US military, it will undoubtedly cause an uproar and public outrage in all walks of life. After all, touching the interests of the military is like challenging a huge and deep-rooted system, and when it comes to money, robbing other people's money is as serious as the revenge of killing one's father in the public's cognition. But Musk showed a fearless attitude. He even prepared his own legacy long ago and left a will, which seemed to have put life and death aside. Musk has a strong security team behind him, which may be the strongest security force in the United States, and it also gave him enough confidence.

Since Trump took office twenty days ago, the Tema Group led by Musk has been active frequently. In particular, on February 7, with Trump's approval, Musk's team officially entered the Ministry of Defense to investigate its budget. This behavior is quite bold. After all, there is an essential difference between the military and civilians. Military affairs often involve many sensitive aspects such as national security and strategic deployment. This kind of investigation is likely to bring them huge trouble. If they also attempt to investigate the development plan of the United States, it will be regarded as crossing the line and a serious challenge to the authority of the military.

Back in 2018, Trump sent a group of auditors to the Department of Defense to investigate, but after many years, nothing was found. From 2018 to 2024, for a full seven years, the US government continued to send auditors to audit the Department of Defense, but no year could draw a definite conclusion. Even in 2024, it still failed to produce a final audit report. Behind this phenomenon, it reflects that there are many unknown scandals in the US military. The United States spends nearly one trillion US dollars a year on its military, in addition to various other complicated expenses. Where such a huge amount of money goes has always attracted much attention. The outside world can always hear about various types of corruption in the US military, which has to make people deeply suspicious of the use of funds by the Department of Defense.

Many people believe that this chaos within the US military has become a habit. US arms dealers are keen to recruit a large number of retired veterans, and retired senior officials of the Department of Defense are willing to spend money to help members of Congress be elected as senators, and then join the National Defense Council to seek benefits for arms dealers. The US military system seems to have lost control and has become like an independent existence outside the government system. Take the party to which an official belongs, for example. He may have been a member of the Democratic Party two years ago, but in the blink of an eye he may have become a member of the Republican Party. Such chaotic political stance changes are also reflected in the appointment of senior military officials. As the highest officer, there are many unreasonable aspects in the appointment of American generals. After all, the military is extremely particular about qualifications. How can an inexperienced subordinate be easily allowed to become the commander of the US Army?

Today, everyone is worried about Musk's safety, and he himself is clearly aware of the crisis he is about to face. After all, some of the people Trump sent to investigate the US military died, and some were sent to prison. But Musk said he was not worried. He left a suicide note and selected a successor. Even if he met with an accident, his successor would inherit his will and continue his unfinished business.

As the richest man in the world, Musk has the world's top security team. After Trump took office in November, he hurriedly moved to the Sea Lake Villa to prevent dangerous incidents like Trump's assassination. In the American society, money has a huge influence. As the saying goes, "money makes the world go round." Musk relies on a strong security team to ensure his own safety. Those scoundrels with ill intentions may not be able to compete with Musk. But even so, can Musk's investigation of the military really allow them to conduct a thorough investigation of the US military as the Trump administration expects?

Musk retweeted a report from Columbia Journalism Review on Twitter, which revealed the "funding" list of USAID. The content was shocking and caused an uproar around the world. Musk, the world's richest man, a tech mogul, and an American official, retweeted the news, which quickly detonated the world.

USAID has spent a lot of dollars to support more than 6,200 journalists, more than 700 news organizations, and nearly 300 media-related non-governmental organizations in more than 30 countries around the world.

On the surface, it is funding, but secretly it is bribery and buying people's hearts. Netizens are more direct, calling it "spreading dog food" and "remote breeding".

The US government has operated the "Media Development Fund" with a large amount of money, directly injecting more than 150 million US dollars into 217 media, journalist groups and so-called "fact-checking" platforms in 35 countries. This huge amount of money is staggering.

Internet users around the world were in an uproar. Those Western media, who usually shouted "freedom of the press", "independence" and "objectivity", are now collectively silent, which is very strange.

The four words "freedom of the press" sound quite mysterious. What about reality? It is like a magical realist drama, full of drama. In the play, some people hold microphones and shout freedom at the top of their lungs, while others cover their ears and pretend not to hear. The stage of this play is the world we live in, which keeps playing out all kinds of unexpected plots, sometimes hilarious, sometimes sad.

The United States gave the Philippines' "Anti-False Information Alliance" two million US dollars, and then the alliance labeled all news about Chinese vaccines as "suspicious". This happened in the Philippines.

The "Citizen Journalist Training Camp" in Colombia was funded by US dollars to teach locals to shoot protest videos with their mobile phones. These videos must conform to democratic values.

On the streets of Kiev, the Ukrainian Fact-Checking Center funded by the United States Agency for International Development publishes daily reports on Russian military atrocities.

The atmosphere in the conference room was solemn, Minister Li's face was livid, and the numbers in the meeting minutes were shocking. The decline in sales was greater than anyone expected. He looked around, everyone's face was full of anxiety, and the air was filled with tension. This sudden change caught everyone off guard. Everyone stared at Minister Li, waiting for his next instruction. Minister Li took a deep breath and spoke slowly. His tone was calm, but with unquestionable firmness, he deployed a response strategy and asked everyone to work together to reverse the situation as soon as possible. The company must work together to overcome the difficulties.

The United States Agency for International Development packaged these projects as "news aid". Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was actually a carefully designed public opinion offensive.

Professor Claire Ward of New York University bluntly stated in "Invisible Propaganda": The US media accused other governments of manipulating the media, but the US government secretly manipulated foreign media like playing with puppets.

This double-standard game is like the emperor's new clothes, and everyone knows it. The truth is nakedly laid there, but no one wants to pierce this layer of window paper and continue to play their respective roles. Watching this play, you have to sigh that the world and people's hearts are really complicated.

USAID gives money, and those who receive money are not just small media and Internet celebrities, but even the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). BBC is the largest news broadcasting organization in the UK and is also world-class. It is funded by the British government and its independence is guaranteed by the Royal Charter. This is even more surprising.

This face is really thick. I have lived for so long, but I have never seen such a shameless person.

Zhuge Liang scolded the other party in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and expressed his indignation in one sentence: "I have never seen such a shameless person!" This line still seems to be powerful today, enough to describe what some people do.

The United States Agency for International Development, referred to as USAID, is a US government agency responsible for providing economic and humanitarian assistance to other countries. What does it do specifically? Simply put, it helps developing countries improve people's livelihood, such as providing support in health care, education, agricultural technology, etc., with the aim of promoting global development and prosperity.

Musk scolded USAID and bluntly said that it is a criminal organization with a strong tone.

Netizens denounced the U.S. Agency for International Development, saying it is a notorious spy agency that has been doing evil for a long time and has committed numerous crimes.

The BBC claimed that the huge amount of U.S. Agency for International Development funds were used for their "freedom and democracy" cause.

What is the difference between this and the underworld paying money and saying it is for justice and the happiness of the people?

It is really hard to accept the BBC's report. This is clearly a contempt for the understanding of the global audience.

Who does the BBC think is more likely to be fooled? The whole world or Americans?

As the saying goes, when you receive someone's favor, you will feel a little guilty.

How can you get something for free? How can you get the money that others give you without working hard, obeying orders, or making any effort?

Chen Weihua, president of the China Daily EU Bureau, said bluntly: BBC reporters in China have long been reporting negatively on China, and now the truth may be revealed to the world. They were bought by the CIA and MI6.

Just look at the BBC's reports on China in recent years, and you will know how hard they have worked to use the "hell filter". They are smearing everywhere, which is really unbelievable.

Musk's list of funding from the United States Agency for International Development has exposed the hypocrisy of Western "press freedom" and also made the "independence" and "objectivity" boasted by Western media fall apart. Jonathan Cook, a former reporter of the British "Guardian", bluntly stated that the so-called "professionalism" of Western media is actually a filter that suppresses different voices, and their so-called "fact checking" is nothing more than filtering out unpleasant news for the White House.

The so-called free reporting in the West is actually controlled news bought by money.

Under the manipulation of the US dollar, the so-called "independence" and "objectivity" of Western media are actually naked double standards, looking at the world through tinted glasses.

Since President Trump took office, Musk has also been "playing crazy", gaining some support and also attracting a lot of hatred. Now, Musk, who is not quiet, has found his next target of investigation: Fort Knox, the location of the largest gold vault in the United States.

Musk said on Monday that he would investigate Fort Knox, the main gold reserve in the United States. He wrote on his social media platform X: "Looking for gold in Fort Knox..."

It is understood that Fort Knox is a base of the US Army, located in Bullitt County, Hardin County and Meade County, Kentucky, with an area of about 441 square kilometers. The US Army Recruiting Command, the US Army Reserve Officer Training Corps, the General George Patton Memorial and the US Treasury, which stores US Treasury gold, are all located there. It was also the location of the US Army Armor Center and the US Army Armor School.

Musk also shared a post by Senator Mike Lee on X, in which the latter said that he was denied entry to a military facility in Fort Knox, Kentucky. Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky suggested that Musk take action.

"Who can confirm that the gold in Fort Knox has not been stolen? Maybe it has, maybe it hasn't. The gold belongs to the American public! We want to know if it's still there," Musk responded.

In a new interview on Monday, Paul said Fort Knox and what is stored there need to be more transparent.

"I think some of them may not think it needs to be audited all the time, but I think the more 'sunlight' the better, the more transparency the better. At the same time, it also makes people notice that gold is still valuable, and implicitly, not explicitly (indicates), gold still brings value to the dollar."

It is reported that the beginning of the whole thing was that the well-known financial blog Zerohedge @ Musk on X last weekend said: "It would be great if Musk could go to Fort Knox to make sure that the 4,580 tons of US gold (reserves) are really there. The last time I went to the warehouse to verify was 50 years ago in 1974."

Data from the U.S. Treasury Department show that Fort Knox has more than 147 million troy ounces of gold reserves, accounting for 56.35% of the U.S. federal government's gold reserves, making it the place with the largest gold reserves in the United States. Currently, the U.S. Mint Police is responsible for protecting this batch of gold.

In 1974, the U.S. government conducted a public inspection of the gold at Fort Knox to refute the conspiracy theory that "the vault has been emptied" that was circulating at the time. Members of Congress and the media were invited to visit, and the then-U.S. Mint Director was responsible for the tour to prove to the public that the gold was still stored there.

But since then, apart from the annual formal "vault seal inspection", no independent audit has been conducted. In this regard, Musk also questioned over the weekend, "At least one review should be conducted every year?"

And even during the comprehensive audit in 1974, the U.S. Treasury Department only opened one of the 15 vaults in Fort Knox for politicians and reporters to visit and take pictures. The gold on display accounted for about 6% of the gold reserves. In short, at this point, it seems that Fort Knox has become the latest target of the "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE).
