A senior USAID official, Nicholas Enrich, has been placed on administrative leave after releasing a memo criticizing the Trump administration's handling of foreign aid, which contradicts Secretary of State Marco Rubio's claims that aid was unaffected by a freeze. Concurrently, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered a halt to U.S. Cyber Command's offensive operations against Russia, prioritizing the safety of military personnel. These developments have sparked discussions on the implications of U.S. foreign aid policies and their impact on global health, as well as the balance between national security and humanitarian responsibilities.
