Very intriguing. Do you have a link? It's worth asking about this.

mapping tool for recent USAID data dumps: https://datarepublican.com/officers/?nonprofit_kw=human+rights+foundation
Not that its a surprise, been calling out NGO's for their astroturf attacks on Bitcoin for ages: #554369
edit: Disclosure, I once had a very nice dinner on the HRF's dime as part of a larger group in which nothing was asked of me in return, I just had to sit and listen while biting my tongue as they espoused geopolitical propaganda

The graph under the link you screenshot shows $0 taxpayer funds tho... So are you sure that they are actually received USAID funds?
Looks like they got funds from Schwab/Fidelity/Marin whom each have zero taxpayer funding too?

The flows are obfuscated
What this shows is clustering of these funds and the degrees of distance

Sounds even fuzzier than how chainalysis tells you that you have tainted sats and that you're a criminal now because you didnt take their 2.5BTC/y subscription to screen all your supposedly-fungible BTC inbound txs.
I'm not saying you're wrong, I just think that the fungibility warning precisely means that they don't know, and if USAID was funding something that was not authorized by congress then they can just fix that: hold those that authorized these payments responsible. Let em serve jailtime. Audit authorized recipients that the money was spent as contracted. If not, sue them for fraud.

I didn't see that mentioned. Lots of people are asking that question on nostr. I did search the issue, though. Apparently ratings agencies are threatening their bond ratings due to Trump policies.
