The USAID Scandal: How Billions Disappeared
By Wayne C. Robinson
What if the very agency entrusted with delivering humanitarian aid, promoting democracy, and fighting global poverty was actually fueling corruption, funding wars, and enabling trafficking? This is not fiction-this is the shocking reality exposed in The USAID Scandal: How Billions Disappeared.
Wayne C. Robinson, an investigative journalist and bestselling author of the Enemies Within Us series, delivers a hard-hitting exposé that peels back the polished image of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to reveal a disturbing trail of financial misconduct, political manipulation, and moral collapse.
For decades, USAID has operated under the banner of American goodwill-pouring billions of dollars into developing nations to alleviate suffering and spread democracy. But behind the scenes, this powerful government agency has become a vehicle for laundering taxpayer money, financing illegal operations, and enriching a global network of elites.
Through meticulous research, leaked audits, government records, whistleblower accounts, and firsthand testimonies, Robinson exposes how USAID has:
The turning point came with the Trump administration's explosive audit of USAID-an investigation met with fierce resistance from establishment politicians, federal unions, and legacy media outlets. What was uncovered stunned even veteran auditors: misplaced billions, rigged contracts, phantom projects, and partnerships with organizations under federal scrutiny. High-profile cases from Haiti, Guatemala, Africa, Iraq, and Central Asia make it clear-this is not a one-off scandal, but a systemic failure.
Robinson does not shy away from the controversial. He connects the dots between USAID funding and geopolitical disasters, trafficking pipelines, and alleged coverups implicating top officials. From the mysterious disappearance of thousands of migrant children to funding pipelines exploited by terrorist organizations, The USAID Scandal challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable truth about how American foreign aid is weaponized-and who really benefits.
