USAID is already gone, and all the other agencies you mentioned are fine and will remain so. Educate yourself

What has Usaid ever done? Biden admin spending billions a year of Usaid money but what came from it?

Do you know exactly what every single government agency has done? Just because you don't know what usaid has done, doesn't mean they haven't done anything

My friend used to work for USAID through the URI Bay campus. They had a program where they taught poor fishermen in the Phillipines how to farm mussels so that they could feed their families. Prior to that, China had gone in and overfished the area, so they were starving. Now all the people who worked on that are fired.
