USAID security chiefs put on leave after trying to keep DOGE from classified info

Early Monday, billionaire Trump advisor Elon Musk held a live session on X Spaces, previously known as Twitter Spaces, and said that he spoke in detail about USAID with the president. The Trump administration has already placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they refused to turn over classified material in restricted areas to Musk’s government-inspection teams. That's according to a current and a former U.S. official with knowledge of the incident who spoke on condition of anonymity. The former official says members of Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency — known as DOGE — eventually did gain access Saturday to the agency’s classified information, which includes intelligence reports.
