💨 Abstract

US President Donald Trump appointed Secretary of State Marco Rubio as acting administrator of the US Agency for International Development (USAID), marking a de-facto takeover by the State Department. This move follows Elon Musk's suggestion to overhaul the federal government, which included shutting down USAID. Democrats argue that it is illegal for the president to close a federal agency without consulting Congress.
