Billionaire business tycoon Elon Musk, appointed by President-elect Donald Trump to lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has expressed agreement with former Rep. Ron Paul's proposal to end foreign aid. Paul argued that foreign aid takes money from the poor and middle class in the U.S. and redistributes it to the wealthy in poor countries, with intermediaries benefiting along the way. He further contended that foreign aid is an immoral wealth transfer and unconstitutional.
Musk, in response to Paul's suggestion, assured full transparency for the American people through DOGE. He concurred with Paul's stance, emphasizing the need to address the issue. Vivek Ramaswamy, another DOGE leader, highlighted that a significant portion of U.S. foreign aid is not authorized by Congress.
