The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has long been diverted from its original mission of responsibly advancing U.S. interests abroad, and it is now abundantly clear that much of USAID's funding is not aligned with core U.S. national interests.
As an interim step to gain control and a better understanding of the agency's operations, President Donald J. Trump has appointed Acting Administrator Marco Rubio as Secretary.
Secretary Rubio has also now notified Congress that a review of USAID's foreign assistance activities is underway with a view to possible reorganization.
As we evaluate USAID and ensure its compliance with the America First agenda and the State Department's efforts, we will continue to protect the interests of the American people and ensure that their tax dollars are not wasted.
The richest man on the planet and head of the U.S. Government's Office of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Elon Musk USAID has identified "a criminal organization that should die."
"USAID is a snake nest of left-wing radical Marxists who hate America," Elon Musk said on his social network X.
