Mad enough to write the article.

Wow, I'm like the most observant human being on the planet. JFC that's embarrassing.

Trump doesn't care because if anything happens guess what they've got a place underground they can live in. And they can live on Mar-A-Lago where they can't get anybody near them to catch anything. And he never can leave the country because he's scared

Not surprised at all that Trump and MAGA don't care about human lives, especially brown and black lives abroad.

But I did think that someone in that administration would be smart enough to realize foreign aid helps keep disease (and migration) at bay.

Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

That's the whole point. Trump needs chaos, rage, and fear to justify what he is about to do, which is to become a temporary permanent dictator. And, he will do anything to anybody to cause the chaos. He's a psychopath.

BTW Marc Elias says the tipping point is near. Will Trump obey court orders?

As a twelve year old, my sister contacted TB. She was treated in a live in facility in #Saskatchewan #Canada for over a year. It was a terrible time for her and for our mother. We saw each other through glass. She survived but her life was cut short due to the illness. We must not go back.

Edit button please, *contracted TB. Ah well the point is the same.
