Summary

A watchdog report warns that nearly $500 million in food aid is at risk of spoiling due to Trump’s freeze on most foreign aid and USAID staff furloughs.

Despite exemptions for emergency food assistance, confusion and lack of oversight have delayed shipments worldwide. The report highlights USAID’s inability to monitor aid distribution, raising concerns about security risks.

Trump’s actions, part of a broader attack on foreign aid, have drawn bipartisan criticism.

A federal judge ordered USAID workers reinstated, but the administration has reportedly continued blocking access.
