The Trump administration has taken action against two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) after they refused to provide classified material to Elon Musk's government-inspection teams. The incident occurred when members of Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) sought access to restricted areas containing intelligence reports within the aid agency.
John Voorhees and deputy Brian McGill, the USAID security officials, denied access to the classified information as Musk's DOGE crew lacked the necessary security clearance. Despite their refusal, Musk's team eventually gained access to the material over the weekend.
