Official Who Oversaw Dismantling of USAID Leaves State Department

Pete Marocco (R), the Trump (R) Administration Official who played a Major Role in Dismantling the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), has left the State Department. Trump's Administration has moved to Fire nearly All USAID Staff, as Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has slashed Funding and Dismissed Contractors across the Federal Bureaucracy, in what it calls an Attack on Wasteful Spending.

"Pete was brought to State with a big mission — to conduct an exhaustive review of every dollar spent on foreign assistance. He conducted that historic task and exposed egregious abuses of taxpayer dollars," a Senior Administration Official said. "We all expect big things are in store for Pete on his next mission," the Official added. As recently as April 10th, Hhe held a "listening session" at the State Department with nearly Two Dozen Experts to Discuss the Future of Foreign Assistance and seek Input, according to a Source familiar with the Event.

When Marocco Returned to the State Department less than a month ago, He said in an Internal email, "I am going to return to my post as the director of foreign assistance to bring value back to the American people."

Senator Brian Schatz (D-HI) said, "Marocco's tenure brought chaos to USAID, reckless and unlawful policy to the State Department, and dismantled long-standing U.S. foreign policy. His actions deprived millions of people around the world of life-saving aid and jeopardized U.S. credibility with our partners. But with his exit, serious questions still remain about the influence he leaves behind," Schatz said in a Statement.

Trump has claimed without Evidence that USAID was rife with Fraud and run by "Radical Left Lunatics," while Musk Falsely accused it of being a "Criminal" Organization. Trump's administration moved to Reinstate at least Six recently Canceled U.S. Foreign Aid Programs for Emergency Food Assistance. The Quick Reversal of Decisions made just days ago, underscored the Rapid-Fire Nature of Trump's Cuts to Foreign Aid. That has led to Programs being Cut, Restored, then Cut again, Disrupting International Humanitarian Operations.
