Russian aides are rejoicing over President Donald Trump and billionaire DOGE bro Elon Musk’s hostile takeover of the U.S. Company of Worldwide Affairs.  

“Smart move by [Musk], trying to plug USAID’s Deep Throat. Let’s hope notorious Deep State doesn’t swallow him whole…” deputy chairman of the Safety Council of Russia Dmitry Medvedev wrote on X.

In the meantime, Maria Zakharova, director of data and press for Russia’s Ministry of International Affairs, shared comparable ideas by way of Telegram. 

“USAID means the coordinated suppression—on the request of its sponsors—by its so-called ‘pocket’ media of inconvenient subjects, details, and opinions that don’t match the Washington-approved model of occasions,” she mentioned.


The U.S. Company for Worldwide Improvement, the place Democrats held a press convention on Feb. 3 to oppose Elon Musk’s unlawful takeover.

USAID is an impartial company that manages civilian international help and help for growing nations. Along with detecting world viruses, it performs a vital function in selling democracy worldwide. By supporting international locations in want, USAID bolsters a “soft power” technique that contributes to extra balanced worldwide relations amongst main nations.

As Vladimir Putin’s sycophants voice their admiration of Trump and Musk gutting the company, Democrats held a press convention outdoors of the USAID workplace Monday. They reminded People that infiltrating federal places of work, locking staff out, seizing categorised data, and shutting down the federal web site over the weekend was unlawful.

“USAID is a criminal organization. Time for it to die,” Musk wrote on X.

Democrats additionally mentioned that the dismantling of a authorities company have to be licensed by Congress. Thus, Trump doesn’t have the authority to close down USAID, which, they argue, would additional improve the facility of international adversaries at a time when the specter of U.S. destabilization has by no means been greater. 

“Make no mistake, this effort by Elon Musk and so-called DOGE to shut down USAID is an absolute gift to our adversaries,” Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland mentioned through the press convention. “

“To Russia, to China, to Iran and others because AID is an essential instrument of U.S. foreign policy and U.S. national security policy,” he added. “This has nothing to do with making the U.S. government more efficient and everything to do with aiding and abetting our adversaries around the world.”

This press convention was held after Trump tapped Secretary of State and lapdog Marco Rubio because the performing director of USAID. Hours earlier, Musk was assigned to close down the company, confirming the takeover of the autonomous company.

President Donald Trump tapped Secretary of State Marco Rubio because the performing director of USAID.

“It’s a completely unresponsive agency. It has to be aligned with American foreign policy. I said very clearly when, during my confirmation hearing, that every dollar we spend and every program we fund that program will be aligned with the interests of the United States. USAID has a history of sort of ignoring that, deciding that it’s a global charity separate from the national interest,” Rubio instructed reporters.

In the meantime, Musk’s in depth enterprise offers in China present a obvious battle of curiosity. 

“China is cheering at this action today,” Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut mentioned through the press convention.

In July, Sen. Tim Kaine, Democrat of Virginia, and Sen. Todd Younger, Republican of Indiana, launched the bipartisan Totally Funding Our Nationwide Safety Priorities Act to empower USAID and the State Division. 

It will have allowed USAID to submit an “underfunded” record of priorities to “effectively counter the People’s Republic of China, which is rapidly expanding its global diplomatic presence,” however the invoice died earlier than even leaving the committee.

“China is rapidly expanding its diplomatic footprint around the world. Now is not the time to cut resources at the State Department and USAID. We should be doing the exact opposite,” Kaine mentioned in a press launch. 

Now on the helm of Trump, cronies like Musk and Rubio have taken it upon themselves to shutter the complete company, be it authorized or not. 

In the meantime, Russia and China, it appears, are thrilled to have decreased U.S. oversight, giving them higher freedom to develop their corrupt world affect.
