Acting US Attorney Ed Martin Claws Back $1 Million From Consulting Firm That Overbilled USAID |

Ed Martin shifts crooked Biden prosecutors to misdemeanor court.

Acting US Attorney Recovers $1 Million from Overbilling Scandal

In a noteworthy maneuver, Acting US Attorney Ed Martin has successfully reclaimed $1 million from Stax Inc., a Boston-based consulting firm accused of inflating salary costs in a USAID project. This case not only highlights fiscal responsibility but also serves as a flashpoint in the ongoing political battle surrounding Martin’s confirmation.

Political Resistance to Confirmation

Martin’s actions have not gone unnoticed, as evidenced by the resistance from both Democrats and certain Republicans, commonly referred to as RINOs (Republicans In Name Only). Such obstructionism seems to stem from his aggressive enforcement of accountability, which threatens to ruffle political feathers.

According to the US Attorney’s Office of DC, the firm Stax agreed to the settlement to resolve allegations of overbilling USAID by more than $850,000 for salary reimbursement related to the Sri Lanka@100 project. An administrative audit revealed that Stax included hidden profits in employee salary proposals, a breach of the cooperative agreement with USAID, which explicitly prohibited such practices.

Following the investigation, Stax was acquired by another company that took prompt corrective actions, including the termination of the implicated official and the overhaul of compliance protocols. This cooperative stance allowed for a settlement reflecting 1.2 times the damages, culminating in a total payment of $1 million.

The Race Against Time for Confirmation

Currently serving as the Acting US Attorney for D.C., Ed Martin has been nominated by former President Trump for a permanent role as one of the nation’s chief law enforcement officials. However, if he is not confirmed by May 20, the federal court in D.C. will appoint an interim US Attorney until the confirmation process is completed. As it stands, no vote is scheduled for Martin’s confirmation.

In a recent turn of events, Democratic Senator Adam Schiff of California has placed a hold on the confirmation vote, signaling a coordinated effort among Senate Judiciary Democrats to thwart Martin’s appointment.

A Call to Action

Supporters of Ed Martin are encouraged to take action. A template letter has been provided for constituents to express their support to Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. This letter emphasizes Martin’s qualifications and character, urging the committee to confirm him as U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia.

The Honorable Chuck Grassley
Chairman, Judiciary Committee
United States Senate
Washington, DC 20510

Dear Chairman Grassley and Ranking Member Durbin,

I write today in strong support of Edward R. Martin, Jr. and his confirmation as the United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. Having known Ed for nearly two decades, I can attest to his qualifications, unwavering character, and commitment to public service.

Ed’s approach to leadership is grounded in results rather than headlines. From his time as Chief of Staff to then-Governor Matt Blunt in Missouri to his current role, he has exemplified integrity and dedication. His involvement in community patrols and regular attendance at local meetings has fostered trust and understanding between law enforcement and residents.

Moreover, Ed’s selection for the “Weaponization Working Group” by Attorney General Pam Bondi underscores his commitment to restoring public trust in federal institutions. His early work with the Catholic Archdiocese of St. Louis demonstrates a lifelong dedication to justice and community-building.

Ed is not just a legal expert; he is a man of faith and compassion. I urge the Committee to confirm Edward R. Martin, Jr. as U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. His experience, integrity, and commitment to justice make him the exemplary candidate our nation needs.

Respectfully,
[Your Full Name]
