It was quite quiet in Brixton today, maybe quite a few people went over to this Art installation across the river?
Bonjour @scudery Dans une discussion tu disais en gros que comparer l'#USAID à ce que fait la Russie dans certains pays limitrophes était indécent. N'ayant pas d'informations précises sur ce second point, je ne me permettrais pas de faire une comparaison. Par contre je souhaitais mettre à ta disposition cet article passionnant (et très long, je n'ai pas fini) sur ce qu'est l'USAID: https://www.medelu.org/Dans-les-entrailles-de-l-USAID J'espère que tu y trouveras des informations intéressantes pour ta réflexion.
He can’t get the image out of his mind: mothers in South Sudan thrusting their starving babies in his direction, begging him to help them get food. The reason the children are starving: cuts to #USAID funding by the Trump administration. https://www.canadianaffairs.news/2025/04/07/a-despairing-time-aid-leader-recounts-effects-of-usaid-cuts/

8 ppl, incl 5 children,
died on a walk to seek MED treatment for cholera after #USAID cuts forced local health svcs to close.
Deaths -among the 1st to be directly attributed to cuts imposed by Trump -said: to ensure grants were aligned with his "America 1st" agenda.
"There should be global moral outrage." Experts have warned: cuts - incl the CXL of >90% of USAID's contracts - could cost Ms of lives.

"An important trait of an economist is the ability to engage in counterfactual reasoning. This skill is not unique to economists, but it is necessary for good economic reasoning. Essentially, counterfactual reasoning is the comparison of two hypothetical situations and distilling the benefits and costs of each. Bastiat calls this method comparing the seen with the unseen."

The St Dept said it'd
rolled back an undisclosed# of funding cuts to WFP emergency projects in 14 impoverished Cs, saying it'd term some of the contracts for life-saving aid by mistake.
WFP: didn’t immed respond to msgs seeking comment.
Trump admin:cut funding to WFP emergency programs helping keep Ms alive in AF/SY/YE +11 other Cs.
Given the admin's HR record, Americans don't believe cutting crucial aid was a "mistake." R donors may've objected.

When you're pissed off about those $8 eggs keep in mind that this regime is murdering millions of people to save what amounts to a rounding error in the federal budget.

Econ self-immolation -after a systematic dismantling of #USAID, VOA...
We’re seeing the effects of a radical tariff policy hastily applied/uncoord/unfair. Trading PRs retaliated. C's lost trust in our econ policies +future power of the$. Investors grew wary & then angry. World: began to lose trust & confidence in the US as an econ ldr.
I watched trust deteriorate w sev of our EU PRs. The rot in the #economy & pol arenas tainted the MIL Trust: damaged.

About 60 letters canceling contracts were sent over the past week, including for major projects w/the #WorldFoodProgram, the world’s largest provider of #food aid, a #USAID ofcl said. An ofcl w/the #UnitedNations in the #MiddleEast said the #WFP received termination letters for US-funded programs in #Lebanon, #Jordan & #Syria.
The projects were being canceled “for the convenience of the US Government” at the direction of #JeremyLewin, a top lieutenant at #Trump *adviser* #ElonMusk’s #DOGE whom the Trump admin appointed to oversee & finish dismantling the #USAID, acc/to letters sent to USAID partners & viewed by the AP.
