That is what First Lady Trump shouted about those running USAID when responding to reporters about President Musk shutting down USAID.
I bet you thought the subject line above was in reference to the Trump administration. Well, it surely applies.
Musk says he is working to shut down “beyond repair” USAIDhttps://www.reuters.com/world/us/musk-give-update-...Congress authorizes USAID program expenditures.
Do the Republican castratos in Congress not give a damn about their role as the 3rd 'coequal' branch of government?

Musk’s response was to post: “USAID is a criminal organization. Time for it to die.”
After Musk’s team breached the USAID computers, cybersecurity specialist Matthew Garrett posted: “Random computers being plugged into federal networks is obviously terrifying in terms of what data they're deliberately accessing, but it's also terrifying because it implies controls are being disabled—unmanaged systems should never have access to this data. Who else has access to those systems?”
USAID receives foreign policy guidance from the State Department. Intelligence agencies must now assume U.S. intelligence systems are insecure.
As I watch the destructive chaos occurring every day I can't help but think: who knew it would be so easy to dismantle our democracy.
FU Trump voters. And you supine gutless Republicans in Congress. And you cynical ass, Mitch McConnell, you could have impeached this idiot and this wouldn't be happening.

Musk’s response was to post: “USAID is a criminal organization. Time for it to die.” Also last night, according to Sam Stein of The Bulwark, “the majority of staff in the legislative and public affairs bureau lost access to their emails, implying they’ve been put on admin leave although this was never communicated to them.”
Congress established USAID in 1961 to bring together the many different programs that were administering foreign aid. Focusing on long-term socioeconomic development, USAID has a budget of more than $50 billion, less than 1% of the U.S. annual budget. It is one of the largest aid agencies in the world.

Some of the USAID folks are truly great ---literally, the hearts of servants.
Many of them are truly nutty and crazy. They can't work at Taco Bell for a week
