Forget #autopen: even President Fragile Ego Tinyhands knows that's bullshit. It's a distraction. This administration is:

➡️ Killing children and adults in the 100s of 1000s by terminating #USAID's work with #AIDS patients overseas

➡️ Turning its back on America's allies while cuddling up to #Russia, a throwback #fascist regime with expansionist ambitions and #nuclearweapons

➡️ Abandoning heroes who courageously worked with American troops in #afghanistan leaving them to die at the hands of the #Taliban

➡️ Stranding #refugees who'd already been promised a place in America after deep #security and #medical vetting, even pulling them off of planes as they headed to the US

➡️ Treating #veterans as disposable while destroying the administrative state (about 1/3 of whose employees are vets) that keeps us all safe

Trump and the tools of the old world order

An example of this is The United States Agency for International Development (#USAID) which was presented as a humanitarian force for economic and social development worldwide. However, its origins and operations paint a different much darker path, of geopolitical manoeuvring and #neoliberal hegemony over the last 40 years. Now, with the hard shift to the right, USAID is being gutted, alongside other long-standing institutions of the U.S. "liberal" global order. Origins and the Cold War […]

"Former African Union ambassador to the US says US government’s aid agency had a ‘major meddling agenda’ across Africa."

"Chihombori-Quao tells host Steve Clemons that USAID doesn’t have much to show for its decades of education and healthcare projects in Africa and often destabilised countries under the guise of environmental, human rights or social justice agendas."

Atul Gawande on Elon Musk’s Attack on U.S.A.I.D.: Hundreds of Thousands Will Die

The writer, surgeon, and former U.S.A.I.D. administrator Atul Gawande on the Trump Administration’s decimation of foreign aid and the consequences around the world.

The New Yorker · Atul Gawande on Elon Musk’s Attack on U.S.A.I.D.: Hundreds of Thousands Will Dieמאת David Remnick
#MUSK#CRUELTY#USAID

Last month I made some rough estimates comparing murders at the hands of Hitler, Pol Pot, and TrumpMusk. Now Atul Gawande, "until recently a senior leader at USAID," brings a more informed estimate.

My guesses were too high. Maybe we won't surpass the Holocaust, but "only" the Cambodian genocide. Of course, this is just USAID. Add up all the other foreign and domestic deaths and we could be a contender.

“On Tuesday, remaining staffers at the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) received an email under the name of acting executive secretary Erica Carr at USAID telling them to shred or burn agency records, despite strict laws about the preservation of federal documents.”

"Here’s the big question: As Trump takes the wrecking ball to the old version of American foreign policy, what does he intend to construct in its place? His career shows little evidence of strategic thinking."

The Washington Post · In Trump’s new world order, strongmen dominate and might makes rightמאת David Ignatius

"In a span of only 50 days, President Trump has done more than any of his modern predecessors to hollow out the foundations of an international system that the United States painstakingly erected in the 80 years since it emerged victorious from World War II. …

But perhaps the more remarkable thing is that Mr. Trump is eroding the old order without ever describing the system he envisions replacing it with."

"Toddlers have a very high risk of dying💔."

The St Dept was supposed to issue waivers to programs deemed life-saving in order for them to continue their work, but the Trump admin’s implementation of the funding freeze/arbitrary selection of programs to CXL have left program WKRs in unfathomable situations: NGOs: owed Ms for work already completed, forcing some to lay off employees.

H & I NGO: US govt currently owes $19M for svcs cmpl in 2024.

"Sent to USAID essential personnel this morning."

The Trump-Musk admin is operating like the mob, but in the open, defying the law. Democratic leaders should inform the public as to their brazenness & contempt for the #Constitution.

What's more, #Musk & others in the admin are proud to defund an agency that saves lives around the world. They're sadists. Children are dying💔 bc med treatments, meds, food... are being withheld, intentionally.

"Shred as many docs first, & reserve the burn bags for when the shredder becomes unavailable or needs a break.
