Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, republican of G-G., President of the House Supervision Subcommittee, threatened potential “criminal references” during an audience on Wednesday over the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
“This committee, based on this audience and witness testimonies, will consider recommending criminal investigations and references,” Greene said, starting an interrogation line after several witnesses made opening comments to the committee. The congresswoman reiterated that Hunter Biden was at the Board of the Ukraine Energy Company Burisma when her father, Joe Biden, was vice president.
“Ukraine Attorney General at that time Viktor Shakin, I was investigating Burisma for corruption. Biden threatened, and is on video, to retain one billion subsidies from Usaid to Ukraine if Shakin was not fired, “Greene said, before interrogating one of the witnesses, the former USAID official and the senior researcher of the Heritage Foundation, Max Primorac.

“Are you supposed to be used as leverage by a president to protect his son?” She asked.
Primorac replied: “No, we Call that corruption. ”
“In its estimate, what percentage of USAID funds are distributed to the bad actors or the efforts that do not have the best interest of the Americans in mind?” Greene added.
Primorac said that it was discovered through the work of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives that Usaid has been paying more than 50% to the general expenses positions and the Usaid General Inspector “criticized the agency for not knowing the charges for general expenses to all these actors for $ 142 billion of overflowers.”
“That is extremely worrying,” he added.
Another witness, the executive director of the Middle East Forum, Gregg Roman, said in his opening statement that he was there to testify “because there is a loose fox in the chicken coop of our foreign aid system, a system destined to raise lives abroad that instead has channeled millions of dollars of taxpayers to radical organizations and linked to terrorists.”

“If we do not solve these fences now, we run the risk of promoting violence against our allies, our troops and potentially,” he said, and then added: “I urge this committee to make a formal criminal referral to the Department of Justice with respect to the systemic fault of USAID to prevent taxpayers from taxpayers from reaching the USAID organizations. This parody and blocks any government official The life of innocent people around the world to advance these anti -American radical projects. ”
Greene did not specify who would potentially be the recipients of criminal references.

The president said that “the USAID administered by the Democrats should not use our federal government, our dollars of US taxpayers, such as her Pidgy Bank party to boost their radical agenda in countries to which we do not have business that gives money.”
Greene said that 95% of all political contributions of USAID employees are going to Democratic party candidates or PACS.
“The rotating door between USAID employees and NGOs who receive USAID funds is undeniable. Maybe we should consider investigating whether USAID funds have returned to Democratic campaigns?” He later asked.

In his final comments, Greene again proposed to bring criminal references in relation to USAID funds.
“What we have heard today is that Usaid has been used as a tool by Democrats to wash the brain of the world with globalist propaganda to force changes in the regime worldwide,” he said. “But if you use the terrorism that resulted in the death of the Americans,” Greene added, “then this committee will make criminal references.”
The Democrats of the Committee passed the audience arguing that the dismantling of USAID by the Trump administration was illegal and is “rearranging the global stage” to favor foreign adversaries and “undermine global democracy.”
