WASHINGTON, D.C. — New Jersey Sen. Andy Kim questioned the Trump administration’s decision to cancel a majority of U.S. foreign aid programs, demanding transparency on the reasoning behind the cuts.

The junior senator got his start in government with U.S. AID, according to his biography.

Kim responded to an announcement by Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who stated that after a six-week review, 83% of USAID programs—totaling 5,200 contracts—had been canceled for failing to serve U.S. national interests.

“Show us the review. Show the American people how the programs went against our national interests,” Kim wrote on social media. “The American people deserve transparency.”

Rubio defended the decision, saying the cuts eliminated programs that “did not serve, and in some cases even harmed, the core national interests of the United States.” He added that the remaining 18% of programs will be more effectively administered by the State Department.

Kim, a former national security official, has been a vocal advocate for U.S. global engagement and has expressed concerns about the Trump administration’s approach to foreign aid.

Here are only a few examples of the WASTE and ABUSE:
