« Ron Paul: Audit USAID… then shut it down! | USAID scandal just took another wild turn—did you know they’re funding ‘fake news’? » |
The corrupt agency which was the ‘brainchild’ of Senator Elizabeth “Pocahontas” Warren (D-MA) could be on its last legs. Politico reported this morning that Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Russell Vought, who is also the acting head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), has choked off the flow of all new funding to the agency. Vought was chosen to take over from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent as interim head, who had temporarily led the agency after President Donald Trump fired its previous director, Rohit Chopra. Vought argued in a Saturday evening X post that CFPB has more than $700 million in the bank and went on to proclaim that the “spigot is being turned off.”
