The US Institute Of Peace: A Rogue Agency Defying Presidential Authority
|
[American Liberty] The United States Institute of Peace (USIP) is yet another example of an unaccountable, so-called independent agency created by Congress, a legislative Frankenstein that has evolved beyond its intended function. The very idea that there exist taxpayer-funded institutions dictating foreign policy outside the control of the elected president is nothing short of absurd. This latest confrontation between the Trump administration and the USIP reveals the deep structural flaws of the modern administrative state. If the president of the United States does not control an agency engaged in global regime-building, then who does? The answer to that question is as unsettling as it is opaque.
For decades, the USIP has operated under the veneer of bipartisan consensus, quietly steering foreign policy initiatives with little public scrutiny. It claims a mandate for peace, but in reality, it plays a pivotal role in deciding which foreign governments are deemed acceptable and which must be destabilized. Who sets these policies? Who ensures accountability? Congress may have formed this entity, but few legislators even know how it operates, let alone exercise any real oversight. This is an affront to the Constitution’s separation of powers. The idea that the legislative branch should have its own de facto foreign policy operation, separate from and untouchable by the executive, is beyond reason. Worse, this organization has a well-documented history of producing and distributing manuals designed to teach activists how to subvert and overthrow governments. Some of these same materials surfaced during the Occupy Wall Street movement, the BLM/Antifa riots and the recent pro-Palestinian campus takeovers. The American taxpayer is footing the bill for an organization that actively undermines both U.S. interests abroad and domestic stability at home.
Democrats, predictably, will argue that USIP was designed to function outside presidential control—that it was meant to be an independent entity promoting global peace.
But let’s be clear: no part of the federal government should be operating as a rogue state-within-a-state.
There is no justification for a government-funded body engaging in foreign influence campaigns and tactical subversion without direct oversight from the duly elected head of the executive branch. This ongoing conflict between the Trump administration and the USIP presents a critical test case for the Supreme Court in addressing the unchecked proliferation of independent agencies. The Court must decide whether Congress has the authority to create organizations that function independently of presidential authority in matters of international relations.
