I havenโ€™t heard anything in the news about a USAID RIF or cut. In comparison other agencies have been specifically stated as targets.

This is a small example of why half of the fed gov needs to be terminated.

This waste of money is happening in most agencies.

People will squeal as they are removed from the cash trough.

Well, you've got groups with leadership that is 100% non-White. It seems to track with other agencies.


Pretty much every HR team at the bureau level at State is AA - sometimes like 90% of the employee body too.


There is a lot of reverse racism going on and all the HR hires other AA instead of the best candidate for the job and that's why the quality is going down.

I have also seen that AA are more into non-professional jobs where you don't need a lot of skill or higher degree.


I was once on a call at State and they were telling hiring managers that as long as the candidate met the basic qualifications, their next priority in filling the position should be hiring diversity. So a well qualified POC wins over well qualified white dude, OK. But the point they were really making is a basically qualified POC wins over a well qualified white dude too.


At a lot of places and it could be true at my work - you get preference or hired first if you are AA. White folks could only get professional positions because there are not a lot of AAs with advanced degree in a field that is in high demand.

Do we really need USAID at such a big level? I need a significant amount of aid has to be permanently cut and the staff needs to be adjusted accordingly.
