Effective Friday All USAID Employees Officially Placed on Administrative Leave

This message is the only thing on the landing site of USAID.Gov

“On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST) all USAID direct hire personnel will be placed on administrative leave globally, with the exception of designated personnel responsible for mission-critical functions, core leadership and specially designated programs. Essential personnel expected to continue working will be informed by Agency leadership by Thursday, February 6, at 3:00pm (EST).

For USAID personnel currently posted outside the United States, the Agency, in coordination with missions and the Department of State, is currently preparing a plan, in accordance with all applicable requirements and laws, under which the Agency would arrange and pay for return travel to the United States within 30 days and provide for the termination of PSC and ISC contracts that are not determined to be essential. The Agency will consider case-by-case exceptions and return travel extensions based on personal or family hardship, mobility or safety concerns, or other reasons. For example, the Agency will consider exceptions based on the timing of dependents’ school term, personal or familial medical needs, pregnancy, and other reasons. Further guidance on how to request an exception will be forthcoming.

Thank you for your service.”

The American people have only just begun to discover what the USAID operation was all about.  Many people thought it was a charitable enterprise and are only just now realizing it was something else entirely.

Historically we discussed how USAID was actually the front group for CIA influence operations globally.  The intelligence community aspect is only just beginning to be discovered by the American people.  However, in keeping with the theme, multiple U.S. leftist media outlets were also funded by USAID as part of their information control mission.

Yes, USAID is a ball of worms.
