The axing of some 10,000 programs has consigned untold numbers of children and refugees to death, officials say. Documents and interviews reveal that the State Department appears to have made the cuts without the careful review it described in court.

    just like social security…

    proves that Trump’s promises to protect Social Security “are a sham.”

    it always was.

    it’s all about dismantling anything even remotely tied to others, like ‘liberals’ or ‘democrats’, or well, helping anyone other than himself.

    “Aid organizations the world over scrambled to prove their work saved lives, seeking permission from the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development to continue operating.”

    Maybe those who proved they were doing good, were the ones then to get the axe. The cruelty is the point - especially I’ve found, by the kind of people who claim to be Christians. Maybe lying by saying ghosts and souls and gods and heaven are real, it inculcates lying into all aspects of a peoples’ actions.

    Rubio’s lies, and these actions are helpful in getting Trump more support from the kind of people who voted for him. The deaths and cruelty is the point.
