Summary
The Trump administration announced it is cutting over 90% of USAID foreign aid contracts and eliminating $60 billion in global assistance, slashing U.S. humanitarian and development aid.
On Jan. 20, Trump ordered a 90-day review of foreign aid programs and froze all assistance, halting thousands of projects overnight.
The administration, alongside Elon Musk’s DOGE, has also removed most USAID staff through forced leave and firings.
Legal challenges have emerged, with critics warning the cuts could destabilize global economies and weaken U.S. influence.
Which they don’t have the authority to do because Congress allocated those funds, but like like they’re doing it anyway.

Extortion, you mean?
Now cut the military budget in half.
A bunch of those funds turn around and buy our agricultural products. Should be a fun year in the heartland.
