The website of the US Agency for International Development went offline without explanation Saturday as thousands of furloughs, layoffs and program shutdowns continued amid President Donald Trump’s freeze on US-funded foreign aid and development worldwide.
Congressional Democrats have battled the Trump administration increasingly openly, expressing concern that Trump may be headed toward ending USAID as an independent agency and absorbing it into the State Department. Democrats say Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency, and that the work of USAID is vital to national security.
Trump and congressional Republicans say much of foreign aid and development programs are wasteful. They single out programs they say advance liberal social agendas.
The fear of even tougher administration action against USAID comes two weeks into the administration’s shutdown of billions of dollars of the United States’ humanitarian, development and security assistance.
The US is the world’s largest donor of humanitarian aid by far. It spends less than 1% of its budget on foreign assistance, a smaller share overall than some other countries.
Administration officials had no comment Saturday when asked about concerns expressed by lawmakers and others that Trump may be planning to end USAID as an independent agency.
President John F. Kennedy created USAID at the height of the Cold War to counter Soviet influence. Congress passed the Foreign Assistance Act in 1961, and Kennedy signed that law and an executive order establishing USAID as an independent agency. USAID today is at the center of US challenges to the growing influence of China, which has a successful “Belt and Road” foreign aid program of its own.
USAID staffers spent Friday and Saturday in group chats monitoring the fate of their agency, giving updates on whether the USAID flag and signs were still up outside headquarters in Washington. As of late Saturday afternoon, they were.
In a Friday post on X, Democratic Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut said presidents cannot eliminate congressionally appropriated federal agencies by executive order, and said Trump was poised to “double down on a constitutional crisis.”
“That’s what a despot — who wants to steal the taxpayers’ money to enrich his billionaire cabal — does,” Murphy said.
Billionaire Elon Musk, advising Trump in a campaign to whittle down the federal government in the name of efficiency, endorsed posts on his X site calling for dissolving USAID.
“Live by executive order, die by executive order,” Musk posted Saturday in reference to USAID.
Trump placed an unprecedented 90-day freeze on foreign assistance on his first day in office January 20. Days later, the State Department froze nearly all foreign assistance worldwide, shutting down thousands of programs around the world and forcing the furloughs or layoffs of many thousands.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has since moved to keep more kinds of strictly life-saving emergency programs going during the freeze. Aid groups say confusion surrounding what programs are still allowed to operate is contributing to paralysis in global aid organizations.
Rubio said Thursday, in his first public comments on the matter, that USAID’s programs were being reviewed to eliminate any that are not in the national interest, but he said nothing about eliminating USAID as an agency.
The shutdown of US-funded programs during the 90-day review meant the US was “getting a lot more cooperation” from recipients of humanitarian, development and security assistance, Rubio said.
Republicans and Democrats have fought over the agency for years, arguing whether humanitarian and development aid protects the US by helping stabilize partner countries and economies, or whether it is a waste of money. Republicans typically push to give the State Department more control of USAID’s policy and funds, while Democrats typically build USAID autonomy and authority.
A version of that legal battle played out in Trump’s first term, when the president tried to cut the budget for foreign operations by a third.
When Congress refused, the Trump administration used freezes and other tactics to cut the flow of funds already appropriated by Congress for foreign programs. The General Accounting Office later ruled that it violated a law known as the Impoundment Control Act.
The USAID website has mysteriously gone offline amidst the Trump administration’s freeze on foreign aid. This unprecedented move has raised concerns among experts and advocates who rely on the website for critical information and updates on global aid programs.
The website, which serves as a hub for USAID’s efforts to provide assistance to developing countries, has been inaccessible for several days now. This outage comes at a time when the Trump administration is facing scrutiny for its controversial decision to freeze billions of dollars in foreign aid.
Many are questioning whether the website’s disappearance is a deliberate attempt to suppress information about USAID’s work and the impact of the administration’s foreign aid policies. Critics argue that this move could hinder transparency and accountability in the distribution of aid funds.
In response to the outage, USAID officials have stated that they are working to resolve the issue and restore the website as soon as possible. However, the timing of this incident has only fueled suspicions about the administration’s motives.
As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how this outage will impact the flow of information and resources to those in need around the world. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.

The website for the US Agency for International Development, or USAid, appeared to be offline on Saturday, as the Trump administration moves to put the free-standing agency, and its current $42.8bn budget for global humanitarian operations, under state department control.
A message stating that the “server IP address could not be found” appeared when attempts were made to access the website on Saturday.
Two sources familiar with the discussions told Reuters on Friday that the Trump administration was moving to strip USAid of its independence as a government agency and put it under state department control.
The apparent failure of the website comes after plaques embossed with the agency’s official seal were removed on Friday, according to Reuters, a sign that the merger into the state department was in the works.
The move comes as the Trump administration has vowed to overhaul the distribution of foreign aid, saying last week it was freezing foreign aid while conducting a review to ensure that assistance worldwide is aligned with Trump’s “America First” foreign policies.
Current and former USAid officials said this week that a purge of senior staff appeared designed to silence any dissent and that bringing the agency under the state department would be a “seismic shift”.
“This moves the United States government to a place where the humanitarian voice will not be in high-level policy discussions,” the official said.
In an opinion column in the Wall Street Journal, the US secretary of state, Marco Rubio – who would assume oversight over USAid if it were or had been placed under the state department – outlined a new US diplomatic focus on the western hemisphere.
Rubio said he would make his first trip as the nation’s most senior diplomat to El Salvador, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama and the Dominican Republic.
“These nations were neglected by past administrations that prioritized the global over the local and pursued policies that accelerated China’s economic development, often at our neighbors’ expense,” Rubio wrote.
Reuters reported that the White House was exploring legal authority that Trump could use to issue an executive order to end USAid’s independence and that he could sign such a directive as soon as Friday night or Saturday.
“Watch USAID tonight,” Chris Murphy, a Democratic senator and member of the Senate foreign relations committee, said in a post on X on Friday evening.
Chuck Schumer, the Senate minority leader, citing a “rumor” that Trump planned to dissolve USAid as an independent agency, said in an X post that such a move would be “illegal and against our national interests”.
But it is unclear whether the president has the legal authority to bypass Congress and order USAid’s merger into the state department.
If placed under the state department, USAid could become a more explicit armature of foreign policy goals than it has been as the world’s largest single donor of life-saving humanitarian operations.
USAid has in the past been able to assist countries with whom the United States has no diplomatic relations, including Iran. A source at the agency told Reuters that the non-alignment with the US diplomatic mission had helped build bridges that might not have come to be under purely political objectives.
Perhaps signaling the new administration’s plan to fold the agency under the state department, Trump has not nominated a person to run USAid.
The costs of a freeze on US foreign aid grants is already being felt. Field hospitals in Thai refugee camps, landmine clearance in war zones, and drugs to treat millions suffering from diseases such as HIV are among the programs facing defunding.
In fiscal year 2023, the United States disbursed $72bn of assistance worldwide on everything from women’s health in conflict zones to access to clean water, HIV/Aids treatments, energy security and anti-corruption work. It provided 42% of all humanitarian aid tracked by the United Nations in 2024.
Following Trump’s executive order last week, the state department issued worldwide stop-work directives, effectively freezing all foreign aid with the exception of emergency food assistance in a move that experts warned risked killing people.
Rubio earlier this week issued an additional waiver for “life-saving humanitarian assistance” while Washington undertakes the 90-day review.
As the Trump administration continues to make changes to the structure of government agencies, the USAid website has gone offline as President Trump moves to put the agency under the State Department. This decision has raised concerns about the future of USAid’s independence and effectiveness in providing aid to countries in need.
Many are questioning the motives behind this move and what it means for the future of USAid’s work. Critics worry that placing USAid under the State Department could politicize the agency’s humanitarian efforts and diminish its impact on the ground.
As the website remains offline, many are left wondering about the fate of USAid and how this decision will ultimately impact those who rely on its assistance. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
The United States’ system for monitoring famine globally has been taken offline amid President Donald Trump’s order for a 90-day freeze on nearly all US foreign assistance.
The Famine Early Warning System Network (Fewsnet) was established after the 1984 famine in Ethiopia, as part of a worldwide effort to prevent a repeat of its devastating impact.
It was designed by US government agencies, including its international development body USAID and the space agency Nasa.
It is regarded as a gold standard in combining weather data and political analysis to predict drought and food insecurity globally.
Alongside a model run by the UN, the system allows aid officials to target emergency food supply ahead of time, and is credited with mitigating the effects of a devastating drought in the Horn of Africa in 2016.
It has been used to try to target aid during the current famine in Sudan as the war continues there.
A briefing service provided by the network was stopped as part of Trump’s suspension of nearly all foreign assistance, according to a source familiar with Fewsnet’s operations.
Asked about the shutdown, USAID said it was “expeditiously processing exception requests” but could not “address every individual exception-related question”. It was not clear whether an exception request for Fewsnet was pending.
The network is “insanely important”, according to Dave Harden, who oversaw its operation at USAID during the 2016 food security emergency in East Africa.
“Because we had Fewsnet, and we had guard teams, we were able to pre-position food and supplies [in Ethiopia] and plant it in a way that was remarkably different than what happened in 1984,” he told the BBC.
Last Friday, the State Department issued a “stop-work” order on all US foreign assistance, worth nearly $70bn a year, with the exception of emergency food aid and military aid to Israel and Egypt, pending a 90-day review to ensure programmes’ alignment with Trump’s “America First” foreign policy.
Since then, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has expanded the scope of projects eligible for waivers to the order, including for life-saving medicine and shelter, but there remains widespread confusion in the global aid sector, significant parts of which have been upended by the freeze.
Fewsnet is operated by a USAID contractor, which declined to comment, while its website is run by another provider which did not respond to requests for comment.
Explaining the thinking behind the breadth of stop-work orders, Mr Rubio said on Thursday that “things that save lives” were being exempted, adding that others could apply for waivers to ensure their projects were not an inefficient use of US taxpayer money and were aligned with Trump’s priorities.
Proponents of the foreign aid freeze see US donations as bloated and carrying too much of the burden compared with other wealthy Western countries.
The Trump administration has also vowed to end foreign aid funding for diversity and inclusion programmes, transgender rights, family planning, abortions and other issues long targeted by many Republicans.
The exemption for emergency food aid does not appear so far to have included the famine-tracking operation.
Jeremy Konyndyk, a former senior official at USAID, described the system as “the single best resource” in the world for food insecurity prediction, adding that in 2011 it saw the famine coming in Somalia months ahead of time.
“The client was the US government… but everything was put online. And that was really important – it became a global public good, [because] any donor in the world can use that, any government in the world can use that,” he said.
“It’s a really critical resource… sounding the alarm when there is a major food crisis emerging.”
A USAID spokesperson said: “We are expeditiously processing exception requests. Several urgent requests have been approved within hours. We cannot address every individual exception-related question but commit to transparency consistent with the President’s Executive Order.
“The Secretary of State has approved core life-saving humanitarian assistance and issued waivers for specific purposes. Implementers of existing life-saving humanitarian assistance programs should continue or resume work.”
The US Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET) monitor has been forced offline due to a funding freeze imposed by the Trump administration. This crucial tool, which provides real-time information on food insecurity and famine risk around the world, is now unavailable to policymakers, aid organizations, and the public.
The timing of this shutdown could not be worse, as the global COVID-19 pandemic has increased the risk of food insecurity for millions of people. Without the vital information provided by FEWS NET, it will be much harder to anticipate and respond to potential famines.
It is essential that this funding freeze be lifted immediately so that the FEWS NET monitor can be restored and continue its important work. Lives are at stake, and we cannot afford to let politics get in the way of saving them. #SaveFEWSNET.

The next season of MultiVersus will be the crossover fighting game’s last. Warner Bros. Games announced Friday that development on MultiVersus is ending, and that the game will go offline on May 30, the day that the upcoming season 5 comes to a close.
MultiVersus will remain playable offline, the publisher said, both locally and against AI opponents. The game will no longer be available to download as of May 30 at 9 a.m. PDT. Warner Bros. Games has already ended real-money transactions for the game, meaning players can no longer purchase the premium currency Gleamium.
Season 5 of MultiVersus will bring two new playable characters to the roster: DC’s Aquaman and Looney Tunes’ Lola Bunny. WB Games said that all season 5 content, including the two new characters, are earnable through gameplay. The fifth and final season of MultiVersus will kick off on Feb. 4.
“[We] want to thank every player and person who has ever played or supported MultiVersus,” WB Games said in a statement. “All of us on the Player First Games and Warner Bros. Games teams have poured our heart and soul into this game. We will be forever grateful for the incredible support of the MultiVersus community throughout this journey.”
MultiVersus was originally released in July 2022, in what Warner Bros. and Player First referred to as an open beta. About a year later, the publisher and developer took MultiVersus offline to retool the game’s netcode, matchmaking, and progression system, while also developing new characters, maps, and modes to boost the cadence of new content. MultiVersus was relaunched in May 2024 with a long list of changes and new characters. But some of those changes didn’t land with players, and after two initially strong launches, interest in the game appears to have cratered, according to data from Steam Charts and Twitch viewership.
When season 5 comes to a close, MultiVersus will feature 35 playable characters from a wide variety of film, television, and comic book franchises. The Smash Bros.-inspired fighting game’s roster includes characters like Batman, Superman, Rick and Morty, Scooby Doo’s Shaggy and Velma, and Tom and Jerry. Since returning in 2024, MultiVersus’ developers have added Friday the 13th’s Jason Voorhees, The Matrix’s Agent Smith, the Powerpuff Girls, Beetlejuice, and more.
MultiVersus is free to play and will be available to download on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the cancellation of MultiVersus, our beloved multiplayer online game. After much deliberation and consideration, we have made the difficult decision to shut down the game permanently.
We want to express our deepest gratitude to all of our players who have supported us throughout the years. Your dedication and passion for the game have meant the world to us, and we are truly grateful for the time we have spent together in the MultiVersus universe.
Unfortunately, the decision to take MultiVersus offline was not made lightly. Despite our best efforts, we have faced numerous challenges that have made it impossible for us to continue development and support for the game.
MultiVersus will officially go offline on May 1st, so we encourage all players to make the most of the time we have left together in the game. We want to thank you all once again for your support and understanding during this difficult time.
We hope that you will carry the memories and experiences from MultiVersus with you as you move forward, and we thank you for being a part of our community. Farewell, and may your adventures in gaming continue on in new and exciting ways.
The rumors were circulating for a little while that MultiVersus may be on death’s door, as the game wasn’t performing how they wanted it to. Today, it’s been confirmed by the team working on MultiVersus that it will, in fact, be closing its doors on the fighting game for the “foreseeable future.” The announcement was posted on X, with the comments expressing their sadness and disappointment but also stating that they weren’t surprised. While they added new characters for people to experiment with, the game wasn’t well optimized, with the menus being incredibly laggy. Players felt that the team didn’t support the game enough and that it was at its prime during the Beta test. Between the Beta test and the official release, a lot changed, and it wasn’t for the better. While there were people regularly playing the title, the interaction with MultiVersus dropped considerably.
For those who want to get involved with the final season, Season 5 of MultiVersus will begin on February 4 at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET / 5 PM GMT and will end on May 30 at the same time. Despite the game ending for the foreseeable, Season 5 will still have a 70-tier Battle Pass, as well as Aquaman and Lola Bunny being added as new playable characters to the game. However, none of the MultiVersus content that is being added in Season 5 will be paid for with real money. It is now all earned by playing the game.
As of today, real money transactions are no longer available. However, if you still have unused Gleamium or character tokens, you can use them to purchase in-game content until the end of Season 5. Once the season ends, the game will no longer be available online, and it won’t be able to be downloaded on any storefront. However, the game will still be available to play after the online features are gone, as there will be solo vs AI options, or you can play with up to three other players in person.
If you want to play MultiVersus, you will need to make sure to create an account before Season 5 ends on May 30. Additionally, if you delete or uninstall the game before the end of Season 5, you will be able to reinstall after May 30.
At the moment, there are no announcements or updates given on what will happen to the development team, but with there now being no game to work on, it is likely there will be layoffs or a closure of the studio. Along with this, the Warner Bros. Games CEO left the company last week after the failure of both Suicide Squad and MultiVersus.
After five thrilling seasons, MultiVersus, the popular multiplayer online game, is set to come to an end. The developers announced that Season 5 will be the final season of the game, and after its conclusion, MultiVersus will go offline permanently.
Fans of the game have expressed their disappointment at the news, with many taking to social media to share their favorite memories and experiences from playing MultiVersus. The game, known for its diverse roster of characters from various universes and franchises, has garnered a dedicated fanbase over the years.
The developers have assured players that they will be providing updates and events leading up to the end of Season 5, giving fans one last chance to enjoy the game before it goes offline. They have also hinted at the possibility of a new project in the future, leaving players hopeful for what’s to come.
As the community prepares to say goodbye to MultiVersus, they are reminiscing on the exciting battles, friendships formed, and unforgettable moments that the game has provided. Season 5 is sure to be an emotional and action-packed finale for this beloved game.
