DOGE Staffer Jeremy Lewin Appointed to Senior USAID Role as Restructuring Efforts Continue

Jeremy Lewin has been appointed as Deputy Administrator for Policy and Programs at the U.S. Agency for International Development, as announced by Secretary of State Marco Rubio in an email to State Department staff.
A federal judge ruled that Musk and DOGE lack constitutional authority for their efforts to cut State and USAID funding, which halted many actions taken to dismantle the agency.
The ruling affects the authority of Musk and DOGE in managing agency funding and staffing, as stated by U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang.
The ruling came in response to a lawsuit by USAID employees and contractors, asserting that Musk and DOGE are overstepping their authority by ending humanitarian and development contracts.
