President Trump, Elon Musk Set Sights on Ending USAID02/04/2025Moves are being made by the Trump administration and Elon Musk, who’s leading the Department of Government Efficiency task force, to end the U.S. Agency for International Development. USAID is tasked with delivering humanitarian aid overseas and much of the agency has been dismantled in the space of a few weeks. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said some programs from USAID would continue in a new configuration, but the agency had become unaccountable to the executive branch and Congress. Democrats have vowed to challenge the efforts.
