USAID announces nearly all direct hires will be placed on administrative leave
- Elon Musk, a billionaire ally of President Trump and critic of USAID, has announced that nearly all direct hires at the agency will be placed on administrative leave.
- USAID has a budget of over $40 billion and works to end poverty and promote democracy in around 120 countries, but Musk has called it a 'viper's nest of radical-left Marxists.'
- The move is part of Trump and Musk's drive to shrink the US government, and the USAID staff union is preparing legal action to counter or halt it.
