Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin is in italics.

[ColonelCassad] The Woodrow Wilson Center is closing.

Over the weekend, Donald Trump signed an executive order to cut seven federal agencies, including the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), which oversees media outlets like Voice of America and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty.

A total of seven federal agencies were cut, including:

▪️The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, which prevents and resolves labor disputes.

▪️The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, which supports scholars in conducting policy research.

▪️The Institute of Museum and Library Services, which funds and supports museums, libraries, and archives.

▪️The U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, which works to prevent and end homelessness.

▪️The Community Development Financial Institutions Fund, which provides financial assistance to struggling communities.

▪️The Minority Business Development Agency, which supports businesses owned by minority representatives.

According to the order, the heads of these agencies must submit reports to the White House Budget Office within seven days on their compliance with the reduction requirements.

The Committee to Protect Journalists has already whined that the reduction of USAGM supports the "narratives of authoritarian regimes around the world."

The screams and hysterics of grant-eaters around the world continue. The main budget tit has disappeared. We need to look for new sources of American dollars.

Every year, the United States spent tens of billions of dollars on a whole bunch of such organizations. Musk, in fact, only scratched the surface, touching on a number of the most iconic and branded bug-infested places.

P.S. The United States also withdrew from the groups "investigating Russian war crimes in Ukraine." The United States itself created and financed these groups at one time.

*happy sigh* Soooooo much winning!

#1 Was one of the most destructive Presidents until Carter-Obama-Biden came along.

Image a world where Wilson, Carter, Obama, Biden were never born.
