Calling his insights “a peek into the machine,” Benz depicted a troubling scenario in which USAID allegedly collaborated with corporations, NGOs, and foreign governments to blacklist U.S.-based news outlets and silence dissenting voices.The implications are alarming: an agency purportedly dedicated to advancing democracy abroad has, in Benz’s view, been turned into an instrument for stifling free speech at home.
In a stunning three-hour interview on The Joe Rogan Experience, former State Department official Mike Benz unveiled what he described as a vast and unchecked propaganda apparatus within the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

This interview follows a recent discovery by Elon Musk’s team at DOGE, which uncovered evidence suggesting that USAID had been misusing its resources and influence.
Benz, who has long investigated what he terms the “deep state’s global propaganda complex,” described USAID as a “rogue blob” operating with minimal oversight.
“This is top-down U.S. government policy from the White House,” Benz stated emphatically. “It’s not just Internews going rogue. This is systematic.”
