A model of deaths caused over the first year following the destruction of USAID ran to nearly 0.8 million people, adults and children, across a range of causes, from HIV/AIDS to TB to malnutrition.

That's a MINIMUM number. And it is all due to Musk, Rubio, the orange and their henchmen.

Such bunkum

John Oliver on right, mid-speech. On left, a ProPublica headline dated December 17, 2025 reads: “Inside the Trump Administration’s Man-Made Hunger Crisis.” Below it, an article excerpt reads: “Pregnant women … so desperate for calories that they ate mud.”

3/ Finally, Oliver brought up our reporting on how cuts to aid caused an American-made hunger crisis.

At one refugee camp, mothers had to choose which of their children to feed, and pregnant women were so desperate for calories that some resorted to eating mud: propub.li/4bzIaPi

On right, John Oliver talking to the viewer. On left, a ProPublica headline from February 15, 2025 says: “Trump Official Destroying USAID Secretly Met With Christian Nationalists Abroad in Defiance of U.S. Policy.” An article excerpt below says: "... where he attempted to delay or halt dozens of programs …”

2/ Oliver later referred to our reporting about former USAID lead Peter Marocco.

Officials told us they saw Marocco’s gutting of the agency as a campaign of retribution against those who opposed his foreign policy agenda in the first Trump administration: propub.li/47CkZ4u

John Oliver (on right) gestures with his hands as he speaks. On left, a ProPublica headline from December 15, 2025 reads: “Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera.” An article excerpt below says: "... turning rows red, yellow or green every few seconds, never asking a single question.”

1/ On yesterday’s @lastweektonight.com about USAID, John Oliver cited several of our investigations.

First up was our reporting about how DOGE operatives had arbitrarily cut aid programs, in some cases by literally clicking through a spreadsheet: propub.li/4cCsSKP

And he, or his cronies, probably benefited from shorting markets or investing in armaments

They're sound out really. 😊

Imagine the reaction in the US if ~175 schoolgirls had been killed by a targeted Iranian missile. (Or anyone's missile.)

This is an atrocity.

In what universe?

Kolanovic.

Fucking

Trump goes full war is peace: "Inflation is plummeting, incomes are rising, the economy is surging"

Desalination, water, and war Attacks on civilian systems, including water systems, must be condemned and punished under the laws of war.

Attacks on civilian water systems must be condemned and punished under the laws of war. We must repudiate such attacks and stop targeting water supplies, water systems, and other critical civilian infrastructure. #Water must never be a target or weapon of war.

My crazy prediction?

Trump will do a "Mission Accomplished" thing and then blame the lack of regime change on "cowardly" Iranians not rising up and overthrowing the government.

He'll then move on to some other distraction.

I give it a week or so tops.

Left: President Trump, "Try finding wind farms in China, there aren't too many of them"

Right: There are 10,066 wind farms in China (operating, announced, construction, and pre-construction)

The general depravity of the entire administration's social media ghouls kinda explains pretty much everything, the "gamergate is the future" blog from 2014 made flesh and given broad access to an obscene messaging and propaganda apparatus

Fun fact: no Trump fought in any of the major wars of the 20th or 21st century.

That must be some kind of record.

Q: You said the war is 'very complete.' But your defense secretary says 'this is just the beginning.' So which is it?


TRUMP: You could say both

Images published by Iranian state media show remnants of a US Tomahawk missile at a girls’ school in Minab.
It’s not possible to independently verify the provenance of the remnants from this imagery alone. But Bellingcat previously detailed how a Tomahawk missile hit a structure next to the school.

Oh my god no! The Iranians were developing Trump's healthcare plan.

"Iran has some Tomahawks" is a shit lie, even by Trump's standards.

I know these guys get off on huffing and puffing about, but who can regard them as credible when they do so?

Imagine that? Unjustified budget spend by the orange regime.

If you are watching Trump's presser right now, you are seeing beyond reasonable doubt a person not mentally suited for any position of responsibility. Even running a small store.

GOP members of the House and Senate: You are seeing this too.

The orange isn't clever. And any cats in a box should be concerned in his vicinity.

Reporter: You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. But you're the only person in your government saying this. Why?

Trump: Because I just don't know enough about it.

An hour apart. Perhaps we should stop treating the mindless weathervane spinning in the breeze as if it has a clear strategic direction we can ascertain.

Truly unbelievable stuff. Just up there shamelessly lying his ass off

And buy a large flotation device before boarding ...

great idea! maybe he could tag along for the ride, film the journey, show the world!
