        Exactly, you made the whole thing up.

        USAID is not primarily a front for CIA operations. It is a organization responsible for foreign aid and development. Sure the CIA has used some USAID programs for their own purposes, but that doesn’t mean USAID itself is primarily a CIA operation.

          My mistake! Sorry, Captain America! I will never be cynical about US foreign policy ever again!

            Not defending the US foreign policy, but this is just right-wing propaganda to cut funding to essential programs. So I’m shutting it down.
