A top official at the USAID was put on leave after issuing a scathing memo blaming Trump’s political appointees for the US government’s inability to conduct life-saving humanitarian work.

My USA tax payer money needs to be used to help my neighbors and American community first and foremost.
It should not be used to line pockets of crook politicians in far away foreign countries or lousy set ups where 1/50th of a penny a ctually goes to help people.
Kudos to this man for standing up for TRUTH knowing the likely consequences. All workers of honor who know what is RIGHT will do the same. I will support them to the extent possible even financially if necessary rather than donating to Democrats
😢 why does it make billionaires happy and feel powerful to take away from those that require just the basics to survive .. sacrificing lives is not the way to save money .
I just watched the Situation Room interview with Lutnick. The hosts just let him go on & on, lying about tariffs and Zelensky's "bad behavior" last Friday. Is this what you call serious interviews? Placating the worst administration that we have had in this country? Just rolling over...eh, CNN?
They sure have started letting them just say whatever they want and they don't call them out anymore looks like they may be bought and paid for on CNN too. What makes it so bad is we can see the situation with our own eyes it's not like some hidden thing and CNN now looks like they're Maga
Good for him. We need more leaders willing to put their necks on the line for what's right, and true and good. Too many in DC are more concerned about protecting themselves, than doing the work they promised to do. Stand up and do right. We could use a few Zelenskyys here.
This is why our democracy may die within 2 years. People don’t know how real the danger is. What is happening in DC was planned and is now being executed. Destroy government and give it to the Tech Bros and Finance Bros.
ASK all members of Congress - Please urge the administration to halt and reverse all terminations of active foreign assistance programs and immediately resume the disbursement of Congressionally appropriated foreign assistance funds.
His administration is going to kill us and millions of people worldwide with things like this and preventable diseases. Remember he’s backed by Curtis Yarvin who wants to turn us into biodiesel and doesn’t believe in democracy. Also, we need a federal investigation into this election.
This memo sounds like the kind of truth that makes some people very uncomfortable. It's interesting to see how internal dynamics and political decisions continue to impact critical humanitarian efforts. Change at the top can ripple down, but will it lead to real progress?
Don’t criticize the emperor! This dictator wants nothing negative said about his insanity. He wants to control the media. Kill freedom of the press, and do away with the constitution
Frustrating to watch Pamela Brown continue to allow Lutnick to blow smoke up her ass with respect to the uncertainty of the rotted yam's tariffs on Canada and Mexico.
FFS people! Why are you so afraid to call these idiots out? Sickening that you are allowing these assholes to ruin your country.
Just wait… they are designing special uniforms for all loyal pubic servants. The shirts will be brown and reinforced around at the right shoulder area…
By attacking USAID, the Trump administration has signaled that: it wants people all over the world to die from preventable diseases and health issues. This is criminal.
Americans must not forget Russia is a country that placed bounties on our troops, our son’s & daughters, in Afghanistan; they paid for every American troop killed!
This is the country Trump has now aligned himself with. Putin has American blood on his hands & trump is his ally!
Let that sink in!
Watching Wolf Blitzer and Kate Bolduan allow Commerce Sec. Lutnick spew his lies about Zelinsky without any pushback whatsoever proves that CNN is just another useless “news” organization. Shame on you all.
