THIS IS A MUST-READ PIECE. Please share, off Bluesky as well as on it. Most people do not understand how harmful these short-sighted cuts are going to be - for our economic as well as our physical health. 🧪🛟🩺

In South Sudan, Afghanistan, and Somalia, USAID alone provides more than a third of total ODA. It is focused on emergency (life saving) response. The ongoing stop-works and confusion will be particularly deadly in those countries. www.cgdev.org/blog/which-c...

The USAID Inspector General who wrote the report saying the 90 day pause and staff lockout put US assistance at risk of fraud and abuse has been fired by the Trump administration. Apparently ‘doing your job’ is reason enough to be fired. www.cnn.com/2025/02/11/p...

Vaccine ingredients aren’t a mystery. They’re documented to the nanogram. If you want to change a BRAND of buffer, you need data showing it is the same as the previous one. That’s how rigorous vaccine oversight is. Read my latest at ImmunoLogic for more: news.immunologic.org/p/we-know-ex...

And yet we are hearing nothing from our government because CDC has been forbidden to do communicate with the American people. This is not just sad, it is deadly.

All government agencies submit audited financial every single year. So, the last time USAID was audited was ... this past December! oig.usaid.gov/sites/defaul... Who does the audits? The Inspectors General. Who are presently under attack, so that future crimes won't be seen.

👇Spot on Samantha Power. Recklessly dismantling USAID is the equivalent of battlefield surrender. Worse, it's like arming our enemies - because the way this is being done will destroy decades of goodwill for 🇺🇸. This is not who we are. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/06/o...

In Ottawa as the game of tariff chicken played out today. The palpable anger at the 🇺🇸 and news reports here suggest that even if the immediate crisis was averted, the damage this has already done to our relationship w/ our closest ally + neighbor could have negative effects for years to come. 🇨🇦

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

New: Trump officials have paused all external communications at health agencies like CDC, FDA, NIH. No health alerts and the famed MMWRs; no updates to key websites or social media posts. And no indication how long the pause will last. With @rachelroubein.bsky.social + Lena Sun.
