Who executed Trump's withdrawal directive across government agencies?

Question

Accepted Answer

Secretary of State Marco Rubio immediately began executing Trump's presidential memorandum, cutting funding and notifying international organizations of U.S. withdrawal. As head of the State Department, Rubio controls U.S. participation in international bodies and manages foreign assistance budgets. He characterized the 66 organizations as "wasteful and poorly run" entities contrary to American interests. The State Department oversees hundreds of billions in foreign aid and diplomatic engagement, giving Rubio direct authority to terminate grants, end memberships, and redirect funds without additional congressional approval for most actions.
