In 2018, Mark Moyar, a senior political appointee at the US Agency for International Development (USAID) revealed to agency executives that he had found evidence of wrongdoing involving five career bureaucrats. A sophisticated retaliatory conspiracy, masterminded by senior bureaucrats, started when a Special Operations general falsely accused Moyar of disclosing sensitive material and resulted in Moyar’s removal.

Moyar, the author of the new book Masters of Corruption: How the Federal Bureaucracy Sabotaged the Trump Presidency, joins Conversations That Matter with Alex Newman for The New American magazine to break down his story, plus share solutions for how President Trump can avoid the infiltration of his cabinet in a second term.
