Former Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, joined by U2 frontman Bono, addressed USAID employees via video after the agency was shut down following a federal probe into fraud and mismanagement. Obama called the move a “colossal mistake,” praising the agency’s global impact. Bush, typically silent on Trump, lamented the loss of his signature AIDS relief program, which saved 25 million lives. Bono shared a poem warning of global suffering. USAID, founded under JFK to provide foreign aid, was absorbed by the State Department after President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, labeled it a “viper’s nest” of radicals. The shutdown sparked bipartisan criticism and concern for future humanitarian efforts.
