Trumplandia endangers US personnel and foreign partners with more sloppy OPSEC

DOGE extorted USAID contractors to comply with their demands for PI information, then failed to keep the information secure.


Two Trump administration spreadsheets - which each include what numerous advocates and government officials say is highly sensitive information on programs funded by the U.S. State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) - were sent to Congress and also leaked online.


The leak, which sent a variety of international groups and nonprofits scrambling to assess the damage and protect workers operating under repressive regimes, came after the organizations had pressed the Trump administration to keep the sensitive information private and received some assurances it would remain secret.

Reached for comment, White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly says: "These documents were transmitted to Congress and not publicly released by the State Department." She urged Rolling Stone to contact "whoever leaked it and in turn, made it public."

The leaked documents, the sources say, include some of the very same information that multiple nonprofits and international partners had been promised would not be made public. Senior executives and other staff working at these groups were particularly alarmed, for instance, by the inclusion of certain details pertaining to programs and non-governmental organizations operating in China, Russia, Iran, Uganda, Cuba, and elsewhere.
