Yes I agree but there is too much and you cannot make this all up. I do believe the reports have to be honest coming out or they would be shut down for misinformation and they need to be squeaky clean. I wish this was not true because this is damning and embarrassing as aid will be stopped for good because of the abuses. How would you feel as a tax payer if this all turns out to be true?

I'm not too worried about it because I don't think that is very likely. The truth is always somewhere in the middle.
I'm pretty sure it's all true, but that there's a lot more that's true, too, that isn't coming out because it impugns the wrong reputations. I agree with Bozz that this is as politicized as it can be, but I disagree that any of these claims are likely to be false, because there is no need for false claims when you're dealing with corrupt scumbags like these. There's a GAO estimate that >$200B/year was spent that shouldn't have been by the US Treasury. It's an estimate because there's no audit, no good books, no proper accounting. These agencies are clearly bereft of ethical standards and hemorrhaging fraud so I believe all the claims are true.
There's just likely to be a lot more corruption that we won't get to see because it would weaken the team in power. This is a takeover, not total destruction of the USG. The players don't want to destroy their powerbase, they want to make it stronger. That's the real middle. Both sides take turns lying about themselves and proving the other side was lying about themselves in the last administration.
