Excellent thread by @charlesjkenny on Trump's reckless demolition at USAID:
A thread on USAID, and why it’s a long way from over… The wanton disruption of US assistance has been murderous. By now, kids will have died from malnutrition or one of the afflictions of camp life –perhaps dehydrating diarrhea.

Much of traditional Europe seems weak, effete and struggling economically and politically. In contrast, the Baltic countries are under constant threat from Russia but nonetheless are dynamic, creative and resolute against Putin. Lots of admiration for them.
Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia will permanently disconnect from Russia’s power grid tomorrow. Russia can no longer use energy as a tool of blackmail. This is a victory for freedom and European unity.

One more window into the Trump/Musk recklessness in shuttering USAID: The NYT identified 30 clinical trials that have abruptly been cut off, in some cases with participants with experimental products or medicines in their bodies and no recourse.

The @WashPost examined claims the Trump administration made about USAID spending (DEI opera, etc.), and 11 of the 12 examples proved inaccurate. I mentor high school journalists, and I've never seen a high school paper as inaccurate as this White House.

True, this!
.@KristofFarms is a love story that began with a fateful party and Nick wresting Sheryl away from an investment banker--by employing the seductive power of an Oregon Pinot over a California Cabernet. So before we get to our Valentine sale, the full story:

The secret American plan (according to Trump): Have USAID supply enough condoms for Hamas fighters to have sex 325 times a day, every day. That would wipe out Hamas as a fighting force more quickly than Israeli bombardment.
