The Untold Truth: 
How #Trump optimized the #NED perfectly for Deep State deception in 2017
Trump announced cuts to the NED budget - but Congress (Reps & Dems!) secretly increased it to $170 million.
Result: Media celebrated him as “NED killer” while the money continued to flow.
Secret efficiency revolution
Instead of closing NED, he modernized it:
Focus on “regime change 2.0” via social media (Ukraine 2019, Hong Kong)
Coordination with Big Tech (#Google/OTF #censorship programs)
Proof: NED head Carl Gershman praised Trump's “unprecedented support for democracy promotion” in 2020
The bloody record
Under Trump, NED's influence exploded:
+37% funding for Ukrainian neo-Nazi groups (Azov network)
$25 million for “color revolutions” in Belarus & Venezuela
His #CIA director Gina Haspel personally steered NED projects.
Why this is more important than ever
2025 NED becomes a digital war tool:
Funds AI-driven disinformation hunters (“anti-fake news” censorship)
Trains “dissidents” for regime change against unruly states (Hungary? Italy?)
The bitter realization
Trump was never against the system - he was its most efficient mechanic. While the masses rejoiced over “Drain the Swamp”, he built the globalist infrastructure more efficiently than ever.
