Many at USIP have told me from the start that the reason the Trump administration has gone after them so aggressively is because of their really beautiful building.

To state this plainly: DOGE forced out the directors and staff of a nonexecutive agency, installed one of its own GSA staffers as president, and that person is now attempting to hand the institute’s $500 million headquarters over to the agency he came from, at zero cost.
