Summary
Trump’s 90-day freeze on USAID funding, intended to curb wasteful spending, has led to at least 12,700 American job losses, especially in North Carolina, a major recipient of USAID contracts.
Contractors, universities, and small businesses tied to USAID face layoffs, financial uncertainty, and lawsuits challenging the freeze.
Critics argue the move harms US workers more than foreign aid recipients.
And then the contractor sues and gets the 20m, interest, legal fees, and all that work stoped wasting the entire effort anyway. Oops.
Yeah. People who buy their bullshit are dumb.
