Musk Targets ‘Criminal Organization’ That Should ‘Die’

Elon Musk in a suit talking.

(DailyEmailNews.com) – Liberals across the nation are crying foul after tech titan Elon Musk and President Donald Trump joined forces to dismantle USAID, the United States’ primary foreign aid agency.

Specifically, Musk dropped a bombshell on his social media platform X, declaring, “USAID is a criminal organization. Time for it to die.”

This bold move has sent shockwaves through Washington and beyond, leaving many to wonder about the future of America’s global influence and the fate of millions who depend on U.S. assistance.

This scathing indictment was quickly followed by news that President Trump had agreed with Musk to shut down the agency.

USAID has been a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy since its creation by President John F. Kennedy in 1961.

The effects of this decision were felt immediately. USAID staffers were instructed to stay away from their Washington headquarters.

Additionally, 600 USAID employees found themselves locked out of the agency’s computer systems overnight.

Musk, who is leading a civilian review of the federal government with Trump’s blessing, did not mince words when describing the state of USAID.

“It became apparent that it’s not an apple with a worm in it. What we have is just a ball of worms,” Musk stated bluntly. “You’ve got to basically get rid of the whole thing. It’s beyond repair… We’re shutting it down.”

President Trump also chimed in to add that USAID has “been run by a bunch of radical lunatics. And we’re getting them out.”

The Trump administration is reportedly considering folding USAID into the State Department, a move that would significantly reduce its autonomy and scope.

This potential restructuring has set off alarm bells among Democrats and foreign policy experts who claim that such a drastic change could severely hamper America’s soft power and global influence.

In the meantime, USAID’s main social media account has been deleted, and its website is down.

This information blackout has left many partner organizations and aid recipients in the dark about ongoing projects and future assistance.

The controversy deepened when it was revealed that two top security chiefs at USAID were placed on leave for refusing to hand over classified material to Musk’s DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency).

Former USAID officials claim that reducing the agency’s role could harm U.S. national security interests and benefit rivals like China.

Additionally, the Trump administration’s freeze on U.S. foreign aid has already begun to affect global aid efforts.

As the largest donor of humanitarian aid globally, USAID’s potential dismantling could have far-reaching consequences.

Still, supporters of the move applaud the effort to root out corruption and inefficiency while using taxpayer money to benefit Americans in need.
