The article details a concerning situation at USAid headquarters where Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials conducted tours while USAid employees were barred from entry due to recent lease terminations orchestrated by the Trump administration. This has raised suspicions of a takeover, especially after CBP's officials were seen removing office equipment. The events also seem to violate a temporary restraining order (TRO) against the agency's closure, leading to a legal complaint from the American Foreign Service Association. Observers indicate that these actions may seek to preemptively dismantle USAid before legal challenges can effectively block them.
The move to survey USAid headquarters and bar employees raises concerns about a potential CBP takeover, following the termination of the agency's lease.
The observation of CBP officials conducting walkthroughs while USAid staff were denied entry suggests a shift in operational control amid ongoing legal disputes.
