Officials and federal officers have turned away scores of U.S. Agency for International staffers who showed up for work at its Washington headquarters. It comes after a court temporarily blocked a Trump administration order that would have pulled all but a fraction of workers off the job worldwide. A front desk officer told a steady stream of agency staffers Monday that they weren't on a list of people allowed to enter. A man who had earlier identified himself as a USAID official told them: “Just go.” Workers embraced who had not seen each other since President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk began dismantling USAID and its programs worldwide three weeks ago.
