Trump Administration Moves to Dismantle USAID
The Trump administration has taken steps to shut down the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), sparking outrage among Democrats and concerns about national security. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been appointed acting administrator of USAID, while Elon Musk, leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), claims to be in the process of “shutting down” the agency. USAID employees have been placed on administrative leave, and the agency’s headquarters was closed abruptly.
USAID’s potential closure described as an “extinction-level event for the global aid sector”
Democrats call the actions against USAID “illegal” and a “constitutional crisis”
Concerns raised about the impact on U.S. foreign policy and national security
USAID is crucial for counterterrorism, disease prevention, and humanitarian aid globally
Shutting down USAID would be a gift to U.S. adversaries like Russia, China, and Iran
The agency can only be disbanded by an act of Congress, not by executive action
USAID is seen as an unresponsive agency that doesn’t align with American foreign policy
The move is part of efforts to reduce government spending and increase efficiency
Dismantling USAID would fulfill Trump’s campaign promise to send education policy back to the states

Trump is expected to sign an executive order implementing the blanket duty, following a pause on tariffs against Mexico and Canada. The escalating trade tensions have led to market volatility and concerns about economic impacts.
