Bush, Obama, Bono Bid Farewell to USAID: ‘Colossal Mistake’
- Monday marked the final day that USAID operated as an independent six-decade-old humanitarian and development agency ordered to merge with the State Department on Tuesday.
- This restructuring followed government-wide cuts targeting USAID, initiated by President Trump and supported by Elon Musk, who labeled it a fraud-ridden criminal organization.
- Former Presidents Obama and Bush and humanitarian advocate Bono voiced strong criticism at an unofficial Monday gathering, highlighting USAID's lifesaving work and economic impact amid funding cuts.
- Bush cited the AIDS and HIV program his administration created that saved 25 million lives, Obama called the dismantling a 'colossal mistake,' and Bono recited a poem mourning the agency's gutting.
- The absorption of USAID signals a shift in U.S. foreign aid, but officials vowed proper oversight and predicted bipartisan recognition of USAID’s importance will eventually return.
