The Trump administration joins forces with Musk to shut down USAID: Democrats strongly counterattack, threatening to sue!

The US Agency for International Development (USAID) has always been the core institution for US foreign aid, responsible for providing education funding, combating hunger, disease and poverty. However, the Trump administration, in partnership with billionaire Elon Musk, launched a surprise attack to shut down the agency, causing shockwaves in the political world and prompting Democratic lawmakers to vow to use legal means to stop this "illegal seizure of power."

Trump administration raids USAID, Democratic lawmakers turned away

Within just three weeks of starting his new presidential term, Donald Trump rapidly restructured the federal government, with USAID becoming one of the most controversial focal points. On Monday, some Democratic lawmakers attempted to enter the USAID headquarters but were stopped by federal security personnel, and they were even denied access to the lobby. Even more shocking is that Secretary of State Marco Rubio claimed to be the acting manager of the agency, despite USAID operating as an independent institution for sixty years.

Musk also proudly announced on social platform X, 'Over the weekend, I fed USAID into the wood chipper.'

The sudden shutdown action has caused most of the institution's operations to come to a standstill, with budget expenditures halted, a large number of employees laid off or suspended, and even the official website removed. Some members of Congress revealed that USAID's computer servers were even moved away in boxes, indicating that this was a well-planned comprehensive disintegration operation.
