Secretary of State Marco Rubio just deemed that only 294 USAID staffers are necessary out of 14,000.

The entire agency will be imminently reduced from 14,000 to 294 employees.

This has to be the biggest mass firing yet.

Little Marco has been doing a fantastic job being 47’s enforcer.

I am honestly surprised. I figured he was a throw away pick to get a rino out of the senate.

Fine, good.

Now, where does the Constitution grant power to the federal gov't to have USAID?

Answer: nowhere.

Nuke the unconstitutional USAID NOW!!!!

Does the 294 include the guys who sweep the floor?

I likewise am well pleased.

Marco is saying and doing the right things at State.

Ashley Moody adds another much needed MAGA Senator.

I just hope he can keep up with POTUS. Far different pace than in the Senate.

I always said we should fire everybody in these agencies except the janitors—and I think that is exactly what happened here.

The janitors do real work—and can easily assist the State Department with day to day operations.

JFK, with an EO, created this horror, so Trump can and SHOULD cancel it with an EO!

Isnโ€™t 294 a little high?

I was amazed at how many freepers knew him so well they were able to identify him from behind. They seem to be fewer now.

EO’s are themselves very questionable. Mixing executive and legislative and possibly judicial branches.

Sooner than later, once the gov’t starts to get back to being limited and chained down by the Constitution, these EO’s must essentially halt.
