The US State Department has done nothing to warrant any benefit of the doubt when it comes to being an honest actor.
The worst offender of domestic disinformation is the US security state, so I'm not about to take their word for it, when they say they just have the very best of intentions internationally.
I'm an outsider and have no idea of the benefits/malfunctions of this agency. I'll take your word for it. Do you think elon has a hand in the demise of this American agency?
reply
I don't know about the Elon part. I doubt it. It looks like they were a convenient target for cuts amid a very tense budget environment.
reply
I think this is more than just budget cuts. Trump and his crew didn’t fare well at their hands for the four years he was out of the game. They got absolutely trampled by the security/lawfare state of the Biden administration. You think they will let them live at peace and collect more money?
reply
You're right. I just meant that it seemed their authorization ran out at a convenient time to be cut.
reply
Yep, you’re correct, they were a low hanging fruit, but I think they were also one of the prime targets for the quickest of cuts. Perhaps Elon had something to say about it, if I were him, I would have had a lot to say about it!! After all, his X is one of the main targets of that isht, isn’t it?
reply
I wonder if they were one of the agencies that he was tussling with over Starlink. Maybe Elon had more to do with this than I first thought.
reply
It could also be that the State Dept. censors were urging on the censorship of X via the services of other states, like Great Britain, Germany and Holland (or whatever they are calling it these days). I am sure the EU and good ol’ Therrie could have had something to do with it, at the behest of our State Dept.

I think this on is on Trump and his advisors, not just Musk. I think they are all anti-propaganda, after all they have been through at the hands of the security apparatus of the BLOB.
reply
The State Dept. appears to be on the leading edge of the security state. Just look at what that idiot Blinken keeps doing! Is he doing it for us or THEM?
