Elon Musk attacked the US Agency for International Development, calling it a “criminal organization” on Sunday.
: Elon Musk attacked the US Agency for International Development, calling it a “criminal organization” on Sunday, as Donald Trump said the agency was “run by radical lunatics” and said he was considering its future.
“USAID is a criminal organization,“ Musk, the billionaire owner of Tesla and SpaceX who has become the president’s most powerful backer, wrote on his X platform, replying to a video alleging USAID involvement in “rogue CIA work” and “internet censorship.” Trump initially froze all aid spending for three months, and though he subsequently issued waivers for food and other humanitarian aid to continue, aid workers say uncertainty reigns with the future of the organization as an independent agency far from assured.
There have been reports Trump wants to roll USAID into the State Department. His team did not respond to AFP calls for comment.Musk has indicated he will give an update on the work of his Department of Government Efficiency in a talk broadcast on his X platform at midnight Washington time . DOGE was founded as part of the so-called “executive office of the president,“ as a temporary 18-month organization under the repurposed United States Digital Service.
