"How Elon Musk boosted false USAID conspiracy theories to shut down global aid"

"The impact of false conspiracy theories on USAID — whether they have directly shaped Musk’s actions at the agency or provided a convenient justification — is already being felt.
Critical medical supplies, essential medicines and food aid are being withheld from their intended international recipients, and aid workers are scrambling to
comply with the ordered shutdown of the agency on Friday."

"One of the accounts Musk has amplified is Mike Benz a former alt-right vlogger, a self-described white identitarian who posted videos under the alias Frame Game alleging a
mass censorship conspiracy against white people, with links to Jewish organizations, the U.S. government and social media companies."

A new name for racists: white identitarian.

Most Republicans are probably not racists but the party has become a home for racists and Trump has encouraged that.

Decent people should not participate.

Wrong agency. USAID had nothing to do with this. $25,000 came from the State Department. Just ask Marco RubeEO.

Accuracy doesn’t appear to be the Republican’s long suit.

And just for the record, the $25k is 0.0000037 of our spending in the latest fiscal year budget.

I bet DOGE cost us more than $25,000 just to find this tidbit.

Yeah, I had to look that up when I read it (in HCR's mailing I think):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identitarian_movemen...

The Identitarian movement or Identitarianism is a pan-European nationalist, ethno-nationalist,[3][4][5] far-right[6][7][5] political ideology asserting the right of the European ethnic groups and white peoples to Western culture and territories exclusively. Originating in France as Les Identitaires ("The Identitarians"), with its youth wing Generation Identity (GI), the movement expanded to other European countries during the early 21st century. Its ideology was formulated from the 1960s onward by essayists such as Alain de Benoist, Dominique Venner, Guillaume Faye and Renaud Camus, who are considered the main ideological sources of the movement.

Identitarians promote concepts such as pan-European nationalism, localism, ethnopluralism, remigration, or the Great Replacement, and they are generally opposed to globalisation, multiculturalism, the spread of Islam and extra-European immigration.[8][9][4] Influenced by New Right metapolitics, they do not seek direct electoral results, but rather to provoke long-term social transformations and eventually achieve cultural hegemony and popular adherence to their ideas.[
