this is a world historical act of vandalism

SCOOP: USAID is getting chopped to under 300 employees. Total.

We knew this was coming, more or less, but it's still mind-boggling. www.wired.com/story/doge-g...

a staggeringly wealthy and armed country should use its power and might to help people, not just to crush them: that’s a moral and prescriptive argument, not a fact. But even the most bigoted, flint-hearted isolationist can’t escape the practical consequences this kind of aid collapse will bring.

people are noting that this gives China an opening: maybe, in the sense that it underlines American fecklessness, but competition isn’t really the point. China will not be able to replicate these systems of aid and funding, and will also be worse off in a world where everyone is sicker and poorer.
