Summary
Elon Musk announced the closure of USAID during a DOGE update on X, calling it “a ball of worms” and “beyond repair.”
The decision follows reports of internal conflicts over DOGE’s involvement in restricted areas. Trump backed the move, criticizing USAID leadership.
An internal email instructed non-essential staff to stay home. The Trump administration pressures USAID to align with its America First agenda.
Critics see Musk’s remarks as informal and conspiracy-driven.
I laughed at the ball of worms. He’s talking as if he did a deep technical analysis over the past *cough* 1 day to come to this logical unbiased conclusion. The man was on a mission without regard to anything to burn it down since who knows when.
