Zerohedge berichtet, dass die linke CIA-Geldschleuder USAID

(die ja neulich vor Gericht durchgesetzt hat, ihre Mitarbeiter zurück zu holen), ihre Mitarbeiter angewiesen hat, noch einmal in die Zentrale zurückzukommen und alle Unterlagen zu vernichten. Urquelle ist aber wohl Politico: USAID official tells staffers: Shred and burn your documents

A senior official at USAID instructed a number of the agency’s remaining staff to convene at the agency’s now-former headquarters in Washington on Tuesday for an “all day” group effort to destroy documents stored there, many of which contain sensitive information.

The materials earmarked for destruction include contents of the agency’s “classified safes and personnel documents” at the Ronald Reagan Building, said an email sent by USAID’s acting executive director, Erica Carr, and obtained by POLITICO.

“Shred as many documents first, and reserve the burn bags for when the shredder becomes unavailable or needs a break,” the email said. Carr instructed staff to label the burn bags with the words “SECRET” and “USAID/B/IO/” (agency shorthand for “bureau or independent office”) in dark Sharpie.

Große Beweisvernichtung der linken Raubzüge und Bestechung?

The document purge raised questions about whether any of the materials should be archived or otherwise retained for legal and historical reasons.

Anna Kelly, a spokesperson for the White House, downplayed such concerns in a social media post late Tuesday.

“This was sent to roughly three dozen employees,” Kelly wrote. “The documents involved were old, mostly courtesy content (content from other agencies), and the originals still exist on classified computer systems. More fake news hysteria!”

So harmlos ist das aber nicht:

A former USAID staffer confirmed the veracity of the email and described the destruction of agency documents as unprecedented.

“I’ve never seen something like this — en masse. Everyone with a safe is supposed to keep it up to date and destroy documents when they no longer need to be stored. Sometimes security will check your safe and tell you if you have to clean out old material,” said the former staffer, who was granted anonymity due to fear of possible reprisals by the Trump administration.

USAID has been at the epicenter of Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk’s visions of a smaller federal workforce. Most of USAID’s personnel have been laid off or placed on administrative leave. USAID staffers are battling the changes in courts, with mixed results.

Schade. Vermutlich werden wir nie so richtig erfahren, welche der „NGOs“ in Deutschland korrupte Demokratiesabotageeinheiten sind.
