Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced that he has formally canceled 83 percent of the waste and abusive spending of USAID.
Rubio announced the cancellation off the waste on his official X account:
After a 6 week review we are officially cancelling 83% of the programs at USAID.
The 5200 contracts that are now cancelled spent tens of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve, (and in some cases even harmed), the core national interests of the United States.
In consultation with Congress, we intend for the remaining 18% of programs we are keeping (approximately 1000) to now be administered more effectively under the State Department.
Thank you to DOGE and our hardworking staff who worked very long hours to achieve this overdue and historic reform.

Musk replied to the X posting and said it was good working with the Secretary of State.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Tough, but necessary. Good working with you.
The important parts of USAID should always have been with Dept of State.

As Breitbart News noted:
In fiscal year 2023, USAID disbursed $72bn of aid worldwide courtesy of funds provided by U.S. taxpayers on everything from “gender-affirming health care in Guatemala, teaching people in Kazakhstan to fight back against Internet trolls, voluntary male circumcisions in Mozambique, and creating work opportunities for young LGBTQI+ people in Serbia” to name just a few.
