Secretary of State Marco Rubio said USAID has officially ceased operations and is no longer giving money to foreign countries.
“Beyond creating a globe-spanning NGO industrial complex at taxpayer expense, USAID has little to show since the end of the Cold War. Development objectives have rarely been met, instability has often worsened, and anti-American sentiment has only grown,” Rubio wrote in a blog post, according to Fox News.
“This era of government-sanctioned inefficiency has officially come to an end. Under the Trump Administration, we will finally have a foreign funding mission in America that prioritizes our national interests. As of July 1st, USAID will officially cease to implement foreign assistance. Foreign assistance programs that align with administration policies—and which advance American interests—will be administered by the State Department, where they will be delivered with more accountability, strategy, and efficiency,” Rubio said.
A court battle erupted after DOGE dismantled USAID earlier this year. A rogue Biden judge ordered the Trump Administration to pay billions of dollars in foreign aid contracts.
Rubio took over the agency and quietly worked to shut down the corruption and fraud.
As expected, fake news CNN is hyperventilating and claiming USAID’s closure could contribute to 14 million deaths in the next five years.
