PM Modi's advisor on how USAID influenced key policies besides elections
Monday, 17 February 2025 Sanjeev Sanyal, PM Modi's economic advisor, revealed USAID's significant influence on India's National Family Health Survey (NFHS) until 2022, which allowed foreign agencies to control medical data and influence social narratives. He highlighted the pushback against this influence and the recent efforts by the Indian government to take control of NFHS.
Elon Musk has stepped down from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), handing the reins to conservative policy strategist Russell Vought. A key Trump ally, Vought is best known for shaping Project 2025 and pushing aggressive spending cuts and federal downsizing. He aims to revive Trump’s Schedule F and slash budgets at agencies like USAID and NPR. Musk, who reportedly wants to focus on Tesla and SpaceX, had worked closely with Vought during DOGE’s early days. Critics warn Vought's Christian nationalist leanings and military spending cuts may spark major backlash.

Elon Musk's departure from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) marks a significant shift in the Trump administration's cost-cutting agenda. Musk, who served as a special government employee, stepped down after reaching the 130-day service limit. His exit follows criticism of the administration's "One Big Beautiful Bill," which Musk argued would increase the federal deficit, countering DOGE's objectives.
During his tenure, Musk aimed to reduce federal spending by $2 trillion but managed to cut approximately $150 billion. His efforts included auditing government credit cards, canceling leases on underutilized federal buildings, and restructuring agencies like USAID and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
