Will closing the Department of Ed, USAID, and other agencies actually lead to less government intrusion in our lives? Or will they be replaced by something more sinister?
Leo Hohmann – leohohmann.com Feb 5, 2025
If we listen to the conservative press, billionaire globalist technocrat Bill Gates is in “panic mode,” making the rounds in the corporate media to push back against Elon Musk’s latest cost-cutting move, folding USAID into the U.S. State Department. But is Gates, who seems to have President Trump’s ear, really all that worried?
It’s been widely reported that the shake-up would give Secretary of State Marco Rubio oversight of the agency, a scenario that could put an end to USAID’s lucrative funding pipeline for Gates’ pet projects.
Appearing on NBC’s Today Show, Gates insisted that USAID’s work is not at all politically motivated.
“Elon doesn’t understand the importance of USAID’s mission,” he said. “It’s about global development, not politics.”
Global development? Now that’s something that is music to President Trump’s ears.
While Gates may be concerned that he is going to lose some government funding, he can make it up elsewhere, no problem. And Gates’ Microsoft AI juggernaut is already listed as one of the beneficiaries of Trump’s Stargate project to blanket America with massive AI data-collection centers.
Gates, contrary to what many conservatives believe, is not on the outside looking in. As a billionaire technocrat, Gates is already part of the “in” crowd with this White House. He requested a meeting with the new president a few weeks ago and he got what he wanted, three and a half hours with Trump. His AI partner, Sam Altman of ChatGPT, then surfaced a few days later as one of Trump’s main partners in Stargate.
Trump, if we’ve learned anything from his first two weeks in office, is attracted to technocrats and billionaires. He likes to build things and he likes to be seen as on the cutting edge.
Trump, like his biggest billionaire technocrat backer, Peter Thiel, also prides himself in being a “disrupter.” While some amount of disruption may be needed in a country as wayward as the United States, too much disruption delivered too quickly will simply plunge the nation into chaos. And chaos can then be exploited by the very globalists Trump says he is against. If Trump ends up declaring martial law to rein in protests, the globalists get their way with him again. Just like they did in his first term with Covid lockdowns.
While I fully support the idea of reducing the government’s bloated footprint on our lives, we’d better be careful what we wish for. What if entire government agencies are shuttered, not to reduce the size and scope of government authority, but to replace that authority with a more efficient AI-driven surveillance system?
Who needs 2 million federal employees if AI is on the cusp of taking over their duties anyway? A government run by algorithm could be so terrifyingly efficient in its tyranny that we will one day wish we could bring back those old inefficient and incompetent bureaucrats.
Some of Trump’s policies also fly in the face of his campaign promises and appear more globalist than “America first.”
For example, Trump came out this week and said he will continue U.S. funding of the war in Ukraine as long as the U.S. can lay claim to Ukraine’s rare-earth minerals. So, the same bloody war he said on the campaign trail he would end within the first 24 hours of his presidency, he now wants to keep going, under the condition that the U.S. gets to take a spoil.
Also, Trump’s Feb. 4 announcement with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu regarding the U.S. “taking over” Gaza is loaded with unanswered questions and fraught with risks. “We’ll own it,” Trump said
—
The White House sent out a clarifying statement 24 hours later on Feb. 5 saying that Trump’s plan to relocate the Palestinians would not be permanent but would only be “temporary.”
This Gaza deal strikes me as a grave mistake. The art of the deal is sounding more like the art of destruction when you consider that any redevelopment project in Gaza must start with a military project. How else are you going to forcibly remove all the Palestinians, level the buildings and de-mine the land? This goes flatly against Trump’s long-stated policy of focusing on “America first.” Why spend years working to redevelop a war-torn strip of real estate overseas when we have places in America that look almost as downtrodden and desperate? Gaza was wrecked by kinetic war, bombs falling out of the sky. After decades of economic war waged by Americans against Americans, we have ghost towns throughout the American South and Midwest that have been hollowed out by disastrous NAFTA-type trade deals — deals that outsourced our jobs to Mexico, China, Vietnam, etc., leaving behind empty shells of industrial structures that dot the landscape like the decaying bones of a once-healthy person.
I predicted that 2025 would be a year of chaos and confusion but even I am having my mind blown by the pace of the news cycle these last two weeks.
Will Trump deliver just the right amount of disruption to fix our sick and dying republic? Do we just need to “trust the plan?” Or, will he go overboard, overstep the constitutional boundaries set for his office and be used to drive an already divided nation into the realm of chaos, with civil and economic upheaval? I’d like to hear your thoughts in the comments below.

THIEL is the renown jewish homosexual who has a hideout in NZ…
CROOKED AS HELL OF COURSE.
He has some relationship with Jacinda Ardern the Kiwi crypto jewess….it has allowed him to xxxx with immigration laws….to suit him.
Needless to say he should never been allowed to corrupt our laws.Just as well Ardern spends most of the time outside NZ….including her special deal with Harvard Uni….founded by Christians now owned by Globa Jews Inc.
Although I’m no fan of Trump because I’ve heard his threats and what he promises, it could be useful for other countries if he does what he says like withdrawing the US from the World Health Organisation and NATO etc. It may be difficult for other western leaders to remain members of these clubs even if they try hard to because they’re so anti-Trump. These are more an instrument of the US than the US is a member nation, and without the US they’ll become something else, something lesser, and they may even crumble, which means we could get to leave as a result of it and take back a little more sovereignty by default.
Trump’s new book, “The Art of the Steal”. Wow, what a man of such principle……
We just truly won’t realize that NO one elected these days is going to make anything better, until the flood is already making our shoes soggy.
Government knows only 1 thing, to grow, and take away your freedom in the process.
Boomertards and conned-servatives are just too stupid, shallow, over emotional, or all of the above to do their nation or their species any real good.
Putting all you faith in a man on horseback without arming yourself, training, and “tribeing up” will just get you into another slave pen and your new home may not be as comfortable as your last one!
All the old time Libertarians are Knot-Zees now. Pay attention, please.
You are a fearmonger.
Was a great move, zionists checkmate .. and Gaza is a cgi psy op just like the crisisactor hostages in good mental health with the cloned alpha male captors in black straight from the matrix.
Hohmann says, “For example, Trump came out this week and said he will continue U.S. funding of the war in Ukraine as long as the U.S. can lay claim to Ukraine’s rare-earth minerals.”
The 2014 overthrown of the Ukrainian government was engineered by USAID. All of the warmongering anti-Russian policies also came directly from the US. Then, coincidentally, when the US ZOG Zelensky government was (s)elected in 2019 it ramped up hostilities in the Donbas deliberately inviting the Russians into the nation. The US started major funding for the war but never supplied the Ukrainians’ with anything really to defend their turf in the way of arms, ammo, know-how, air cover, surveillance, or logistics. They knew from the beginning it would be a slaughter. About one million Ukrainian soldiers according to US sources have been killed in the Russian meatgrinder, and about /4 of the Ukrainian population has been driven from their nation. As predicted and said in February 2022 Russia would end up occupying and keeping a huge hunk of the Ukraine.
Before any ceasefire or the end of the slaughter the Americans and other Western carpetbaggers are in their now gobbling up the rich farmlands and most other valuable assets in the central and western regions of the Ukraine, as if they were assured the Russians only wanted the eastern regions and they were making safe and secure “investments”. Meanwhile, when the Russians walked in, it was without any massive destruction of its buildings and infrastructures, knowing full well it was going to stay there permanently. As soon as the Ukrainians are pushed out by the Russians in those 4 eastern oblasts, miraculously, the Russians abandon Assad in Syria and that place is carved up by the sociopath monsters of the West.
All it takes for anyone who calls themselves “American” to walk over other people’s faces and take what they want is some pretext like “we need it”. The pulled off 9/11 with the Israelis because they “needed” a really big threat of terrorism for their newly-formed Department of Homeland Security, and as a pretext to continue their wars of conquest in the Middle East. They say today that the war and bombing in Iraq was justified with the killing of over 500,000 women and children, because they “needed” the oil. They began the war against Syria in 2011, killing and maiming millions, and herded millions more of the displaced people out of their nation into camps in foreign nations and as unwelcome refugees into the West, because Israel allegedly “needed” the land up to the Euphrates for its Greater Israel Project, and wants to get rid of all of the alleged “inferior” people whose ancestors have been “squatting” there as they say, although the squatting has been for the past three or four thousand years. Now Trump is saying that the US presence in the Ukraine is justified because they “need” the rare earths. Next they will say they “need” Greenland to protect the Artic, or Canada for its water.
Those kind of pretexts are all that the nationalistic Americans require to justify their land and resource grabs around the world, and it has been going on non-stop ever since WWII, with the toppling of over 100 democratic nations around the world in order to debt-rig them and to own and control their resources. As with the USSR, the Russia of today, is actually a comrade in arms with the US in running the largest global protection racket the world has ever seen.
We who are of nations who do not buy into the aggressive nationalism of any of the major powers, or into the fake UN which is controlled by those powers, and all of their fakery and pretexts to enslave us in their Agendas and their technocratic totalitarian plans, still do want the rule of law and real consequences against those powers to end the crimes.
What is needed is a alternate union of the majority nations of the world and all to say FU USA, FU UK, FU Russia, FU China, and FU UN, and to condemn and boycott entire works of them.
In a place like Canada, for instance, for the people to go along with the US in its land and resource grabs, including its crimes in the Ukraine, those in Gaza and Syria, and their never-ending psyops such as the Covid one, makes the nation equally culpable and monstrous. Also, there are so many Americans who are waking up who are either truther humans, and/or truther God-loving, who also believe there must be some alternative to the ideas that might makes right and the ends justify the means, from which the truth and real justice have no real weight or currency in anything anymore.

I think you failed to name the elephant in the room as you always do. It’s the one with the really big hooked nose.
Trump has already gone overboard with Gaza, Ukraine, AI and Stargate. He seems unconcerned about the social/humanitarian value of what he’s demolishing or building, only that he’s making money destroying what we already have and building something else on that spot, whether it’s resorts or mines or replacement populations (e.g., Jews instead of Palestinians). Biden was the same. (e.g., illegals instead of whites).
Trump has no feeling for or concern about Nature, the outdoors or the wilderness. To him, it’s all materials he can use or can’t use. Either way, he is eager to dig it up or mow it down to make way for man-made structures. He must looking forward to the 15-minute city, where trees, flowers and grass are only decorations and where a plastic dome substitutes for the sky.

Trump will have the opportunity to declare martial law when freemasons destroy the Vatican but then blame Iran.
*decoli”
Are you referring to Katie (former member of the BRITISH intelligence service in the army.
Take a look at Katie’s massive curved conk.Katie is easily recognizable as jewish……although pretends to be Catholic….a Marrano in other words.
She has visited Israel of cours like Tommy Robinson.
Some excellent commentary above from several.
Gatestein, unquestionably a criminally insane psychopathic monster, vomited out, “Elon doesn’t understand the importance of USAID’s mission.” You can bet your teeth, your organs, and every cent you still may have that anything that Gates advocates for is utterly disastrous for 99.9% of people out there.
Gatestein, like George Soreass and every Rotshitz, is a reeking putrid shit-stain on the fabric of humanity who has proven without question that he fully deserves to be thrown into the street, stripped naked, mocked mercilessly, have his tongue ripped out and his teeth bashed down his throat, his kneecaps and elbows shattered, violently sodomized six ways from Sunday by a mob of hobos fueled with Viagra and $2 gin, vigorously flogged, rolled in pig shit and salt, then nailed to a tree and left to rot but given just enough water to keep him alive for a couple of weeks while people come by to piss on him and pelt him with rocks. With a whipped shit pie smashed in his rat face every day, of course.
