Secretary of State Rubio says purge of USAID programs complete, with 83% of agency's programs gone
Secretary of State Marco Rubio is signaling that the Trump administration has finished its six-week dismantling of the six-decade-old U.S.
Summary
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the completion of the Trump administration's six-week purge of USAID programs, eliminating 83% of the agency's initiatives.
The remaining 18% will move under State Department control.
The administration claims eliminated programs "did not serve the core national interests" of the US. Critics argue the shutdown is illegal without congressional approval.
Aid groups report even life-saving programs received termination notices. The rapid dismantling has left thousands unemployed and billions in unpaid contracts, with many USAID staff still stranded overseas awaiting travel expenses.

These assholes are trading countless human lives to line already obscenely rich people. The children deserve justice.
