A heated exchange erupted between Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government
Efficiency (DOGE), and Hillary Clinton over Musk’s aggressive audits of USAID
spending. Clinton accused Musk of undermining humanitarian efforts, calling his
cuts “reckless and short-sighted.” Musk fired back, alleging USAID funds were being ,
misused and vowing to end “unchecked spending.”Republicans backed Musk’s cost-cutting mission,
while Democrats slammed it as politically motivated. The debate highlights a deeper
divide over America’s role in global aid and diplomacy. Despite criticism,
Musk remains undeterred, hinting at more audits across federal agencies.
