The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/2/25

After it was revealed that Elon Muck (intentional) was given access to sensitive information at the Treasury, including the Social Security and Medicare customer payment systems (reminder Musk is not an elected official, nor a Congressionally confirmed Cabinet member.  He's Trump's buddy!!!), Trump and Musk turned their ire against USAID, an organization tasked with overseeing humanitarian, developmental, and security programs in over 120 countries.  

USAID has been a growing villain for the Republican Party. They feel helping foreign countries with humanitarian aid is somehow promoting a liberal agenda (that tells you a lot about who these people are right there).  Earlier, Trump removed two top security officials at USAID after Musk (once again, just Trump's buddy) wanted access to sensitive materials, and they refused to give them to him (pretty sure Musk could not pass the clearance test in order to see those documents).

Sunday, Trump once again attempted to shut down a government agency without Congressional approval as he has told staffers to stay away and locked most of them out of the computer system for USAID. This was after they had shut down all USAID programs worldwide last week.  He is reporting USAID is now officially closed as of 2/3.

I've heard that at Multiple MAGA Evangelical churches across America yesterday, sermons focused on the evils of being a compassionate humanitarian.  They basically preached against the 'Good Samaritan.'
