If you ever wondered why the Left is really panicking over President Trump shutting down USAID, here’s your answer—and it’s explosive. According to Mike Benz, a former State Department official and one of the few brave enough to expose the deep-state circus, Barack Obama’s administration wasn’t using USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development) to deliver “aid” overseas. Nope. They were allegedly laundering your tax dollars to fund international “Rent-a-Mobs” and push regime change ops. All while pretending it was about democracy and human rights. Classic Democrat move—wrap tyranny in a feel-good slogan and send the bill to the American taxpayer.
Benz dropped the bombshell during a recent appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience, and it’s enough to make your blood boil. He explained how, under Obama, USAID pumped $1.2 billion into fake civil society groups that were trained not in agriculture or disaster relief—but in social media manipulation, hashtag activism, and protest coordination. Yep. Your hard-earned dollars were used to teach professional agitators how to tweet, chant, and organize street chaos. This wasn’t aid. It was AstroTurf revolution-making.
The operation in Cuba was particularly grotesque. Obama’s USAID literally built a Twitter clone called “Zunzuneo” (Cuban slang for “hummingbird”)—an undercover propaganda platform disguised as a fun, harmless social network. They used it to slowly inject political content and stir dissent against the Cuban government. Think about that: an American taxpayer-funded social media op using fake bots and content to destabilize foreign countries. And to really keep things dirty, they laundered the money through Cayman Islands bank accounts, pretending it was “earmarked for Pakistani aid.” That’s straight-up international fraud, not diplomacy.
Why all the smoke and mirrors? Because if they admitted what USAID was really doing, the American people and Congress would’ve never allowed it. These were covert regime change operations masquerading as humanitarian work. And they weren’t limited to Cuba. Benz points out that similar tactics were used in Arab Spring countries—and surprise, surprise—those revolutions created more chaos than democracy.
This is why Democrats are losing their minds over Trump shutting down USAID. It wasn’t just a foreign aid agency—it was their global slush fund, their ideological export machine. President Trump didn’t just cut the waste—he pulled the plug on their influence racket. And now the whole dirty web is starting to unravel.
The truth is out. And it leads straight back to Obama.
